“Yi Ling watched my dog over two weekends, and I was very happy with the care she provided. She was an excellent communicator, always punctual, and completely dependable. One thing to know is that she often watches more than one dog at a time. My dog did great in that environment and enjoyed the opportunity to socialize with other dogs. I would happily book with Yi Ling again!”
“Kyle and Desiree are truly the best! I’m admittedly a bit of a *crazy dog mom* who worries way too much about leaving our two pups with anyone but us. But Kyle and Desiree made the whole process so easy and they were so thorough in their meet and greet and all of their communication that I barely had time to worry. We did a “trial night” ahead of a two-week trip in November, and I was practically in tears dropping the dogs off, imagining all the worst-case scenarios only an over-anxious dog mom could dream up. Kyle and Desiree handled both my nerves and our dogs like pros! They sent us so many adorable pictures and updates, and I’m pretty sure our dogs had more fun with them than they do with us. By the time we picked them up, I don’t think they even *wanted* to come home! My anxiety about leaving them for two weeks is now gone, and I’m finally starting to feel excited for our first ever two week vacation knowing our pups will be in such great hands. If you’re looking for sitters who will treat your dogs like family and give you great peace-of-mind knowing they are safe and happy, I can’t recommend Kyle and Desiree enough!”
“We are so happy to have found Tessa! She did an amazing job taking care of our pup, communicated well, provided timely updates, and is an overall wonderful person. We will definitely rebook with her in the future.”
“Tamie was wonderful! She's very kind and easy to communicate with and my Baxter immediately felt comfortable in her home. I appreciated the photos and updates that she sent every day. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Julia is an absolute gem!! 💎 She greeted Kaya at her door and before I even had her bag out, she’d found Kaya’s favorite spot to be petted! I felt so comfortable knowing my girl was with a wonderful pet sitter, it helped make my weekend that much better. The communication was great - the photos and video of her enjoying her best life with Julia’s dog 🐶 and out walking made me smile and know I made the best decision for her. Highly recommend!!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Delane when she cared for Monet for three days. From the very beginning, during our meet and greet, we genuinely enjoyed our conversation with her. Delane is such a lovely and thoughtful person, and clearly experienced with dogs. Her dog, Lucy, is absolutely sweet and gentle, and Monet and Lucy got along very well. Delane’s home is warm and welcoming, and Monet settled in right away. She kept us updated throughout Monet’s stay, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that Monet was not only well cared for, but also comfortable. We would happily book with Delane again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, warm, and dependable caregiver. Thank you, Delane!!”
“Mandy made me feel very comfortable about leaving our puppy! I really appreciated her sending me updates on how our puppy was doing and acclimating to her new surroundings! I would definitely use Mandy again!”
“Ryan and Lorien took exceptional care of our senior dog, Keira! During our 8-day trip, we received wonderful daily writeups and photos - we enjoyed experiencing the details of her day and knowing that everything was going so well. Ryan took great care in organizing her walking routine, food, and medicines so that she was always comfortable and happy in their home. We will definitely use Ryan and Lorien again when we need a petsitter - and know that Keira will be welcomed back!”
“Ashley and her family were wonderful! Such a sweet family. They took great care of Indie; who came home happy and exhausted. Thanks so much you guys!! Hope to see you again soon!”
“This was Ruby’s second stay with Kim and her son, and her first time staying overnight for > 1 day. This was a great opportunity for our puppy to socialize with other dogs. Kim provided daily updates and was flexible as we figured out how to make Ruby’s first long stay comfortable. Ruby is still working on her crate training and seems further along now than when we dropped her off. It’s clear Kim took care of Ruby as if she were her own dog, which kept us at ease while we were out of town.”
“Carrie took Ziggy for a few days for us while we were on a trip! She's got a great setup for boarding and daycare, lots of space to run and play. Her dogs got along with Ziggy well. She was very responsive and kept us updated on all things. Will definitely use again when traveling.”
“We had a great experience with Alex. He is very kind and is a dog lover. He was great with communication and drop off pickup and being flexible with our times. He let us enjoy our trip but sent a few messages and took amazing photos of our dog Chip. He was thoughtful and gave us some prints and a magnet of his photography of our cutie pup Chip. We will definitely be using Alex again. Thank you!”
“Felt very comfortable leaving our dog in Charlotte’s care! Received regular updates and lots of photos. Very fast to respond as well which is always comforting. We would be happy to trust our pup with Charlotte any time. Thank you!”
“Shyla was absolutely amazing for watching our dog! She constantly gave updates with photos and videos and kept us up to date with how he was doing while we were gone. She even was so kind to watch him and take care of him after we learned he tore his ACL and had to be restricted in movement and she made sure he was taken care of! Definitely recommend her for watching and caring for your dog! ☺️”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Gilcrest home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Gilcrest.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Gilcrest sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CO ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
