“I left my 6 month miniature schnauzer with Kristi for a week. We had a meet and greet prior and my little guy played so well with her dogs. She ended up sitting with another puppy part of his stay and she sent pictures of them playing together. Drop off and pick up were smooth. I think he played so much the week he pretty much slept most of the day when I picked him up. I would definitely consider using Kristi again.”
“Analisa was great. Low stress, communicative, & flexible with my changing timelines (thank you!!). My dog was clearly happy in her care and her kids loved him as well. I would certainly book with her again :)”
“Tom was great with Jake. Jake is 13 years old with bad eyesight and hearing and really bad back legs. Tom was great taking care of Jake’s needs. We had lots of pictures with Jack looking like he owned the place. We’ll definitely use him again. Tracy”
“Jen has been an amazing dog sitter for our 2 little dogs. We have used her a few times for vacations and we love receiving photos of our dogs nearly daily while we are away. She’s great and I highly recommend her!”
“Jon and Sonia were amazing with Loki, and he obviously had a great time. They were outstanding communicators and I would feel comfortable booking them again!”
“This was our 3rd stay with Nicole, Craig, and family. This stay was different for us in that we were out of the country for almost two weeks! I was certainly uneasy leaving my precious pups for so long, but I am so thankful and grateful for Nicole, Craig, and their boys. They treat our two Shiba Inus as party of the family, as if they were there own. Everything went swimmingly, which allowed my husband to really enjoy our vacation without having to worry about our pups. Thank you so much Nicole and Craig! We'll see you again soon!”
“Jennifer was absolutely wonderful watching our dog Zoey when we were on vacation. She sent pictures everyday and made her stay fantastic. We will be using Jennifer again since she was so wonderful!”
“I booked Jennifer’s onboarding service for my pups over July 4th weekend and the overall experience was wonderful. The meet and greet was held at her house which I appreciated because I wanted to make sure my pups would feel comfortable. Jennifer was mindful and attentive to my pups needs and gave updates whether it’s a message or picture! Our dogs got along and I could tell my pups had a fun time!”
“Kristy & Nathan were wonderful!!! They were attentive and knowledgeable with our very young puppy. They gave us frequent updates and our puppy is happy, and tired after a fun weekend away! Thank you again!”
“Emily and her partner were absolutely amazing with Harvest while I was away on a business trip! I received regular daily updates with tons of photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. Harvest and their dog Dale also got along great and had a blast together. They took excellent care of Harvest, including tending to a small sore on his foot and kept me well informed. To top it off, she was incredibly understanding and accommodating when my flight home got delayed. I highly recommend them and will 100% have them watch Harvest again! 🩷”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, with it being cats, dogs, or even lizards, crabs, and rats. I enjoy quality time with any pet and learning what they need for care. I have trained dogs. I currently have a part-time job and school. I am available on most weekends, holidays, and weekdays! I perfer two days advance but can be very flexible for your needs. I live near many trails and a very walkable area so your dog will get as much exercise as needed. I also have two cats and a dog if your dog needs more company. I’m able to put cats in a separate room if needed aswell.
“Jan & Patrick are wonderful! Ziggs had a great time while she was there. They sent updates and pictures during our weeklong holiday and I wouldn't hesitate to book them again!”
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She took such great care of my dog while I was out of town - she kept me updated with messages and photos. My dog absolutely adored her! She gave him tons of love and snuggles and treated him like her own. He was so happy with her that he didn’t even want to leave when I came to pick him up! I’d 100% book with Kaitlyn again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter.”
“So happy with the loving care my two dogs received for a three day home stay. I loved getting photos and video of my pups while away. The home is set up wonderfully for dogs. Very safe and dog friendly. I felt my dogs were incredibly well cared for and we will be back!”
“Victoria was amazing with my dog Benji! She took such great care of him and treated him like her own. She sent lots of photos and videos, which made me feel really comfortable while I was away. Benji looked so happy playing with her! I’m really grateful for how patient, kind, and caring she was. I highly recommend Victoria to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to watch their dog.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Golden
Ryan exceeded all of our expectations! This was the first time we booked through Rover and was impressed with our experience from start to finish. He was timely with his initial booking communication and prompt with his arrival time. From the beginning, our three pups were at ease with him. He sent numerous pictures and updates to us throughout the evening, which helped me see how much they were enjoying Ryan’s company. As out of town guests, he made some accommodations for us that made it easy for our pups to feel right at home. You would be so lucky to book Ryan for your next adventure or short evening away. Highly recommend!
We can’t thank Amy enough for watching our sweet Henry for the weekend! We live in the mountains, and it’s been hard to find a reliable sitter while away on trips - but Amy made sure Henry was in the best hands and he loved getting to play with other pups all weekend. He came home exhausted and happy!
Savannah did a great job with Sadie. She was friendly, easy to communicate with, followed all of our instructions, and sent plenty of photos and updates throughout the stay. It was great seeing Sadie swimming, going on little adventures, running errands, and getting lots of attention and cuddles. It was obvious she was well taken care of and comfortable the entire time. No complaints at all, and will definitely book with Savannah again in the future.
Blake is amazing! She took care of our dog, Tucker, for a few days, and it was a great experience. She made sure he had plenty of playtime and walks. She kept us updated with pictures throughout his stay, which gave us peace of mind. We highly recommend her. Thanks so much, Blake! 😊
Jay was an exceptional sitter. The perfect amount of updates, communication, and incredible care of our dog while we were out of the country. Truly treated our pup like he was their own and part of the family! We felt so lucky to have our dog watched by them, and can’t wait to use Jay again!
Maren was excellent! She took wonderful care of our dog and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup and could tell he was well loved and cared for. Highly recommend Maren — we’ll definitely be booking with her again!

There are 6,284 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Golden. About 90% of Golden sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
