“Mindy is the absolute best. This is her second time using her to watch her dogs out and Zoe just absolutely adores her. We highly recommend Mindy as your sitter and for your all your pets needs. She is the best.”
About: I've been caring for animals for my whole life, I've always had pets, and have been a walker on apps for 6+ years. I'm always willing to sit, board or walk. I volunteer with a small nonprofit that provides service dogs to disabled veterans and hope I can positively impact you and your pets. I currently volunteer, and work part-time with flexibility, so I can frequently pick-up/drop-off or check-in on your pets. My home is pet friendly with two cats. I do currently serve in the Navy reserves, so I travel to Denver once a month for a couple days, but I always know my schedule ahead of time. I have two cats who are comfortable around dogs, live in a two bedroom apartment, with close access to a grassy area and some local parks.
About: Im 18 years old and I’ve never lived without a dog in my house! I have a large yard with some cats and a dog in house! I currently don’t have a job so I can be as attentive as needed! I wake up pretty early so walks and potty breaks are no biggie! I have 1 cat and 1 dog who are both super duper friendly! I also have an entirely fenced yard that is decently big! I also live in a nice neighborhood that is great for walks.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10, I have watched all sorts of dogs, from family to friends to coworkers, and neighbors even:) I’m currently working for a second job but I always make sure that my animal care come first, I try to reason with my clients if change happens. I always try to make sure my dogs and cats stay occupied with toys and treats and walks making sure that they are always fed 2 time a day
“Marlee was great with Cooper! He came back tired and happy from playing with her dogs in the fenced backyard. She was great keeping us in the loop with daily updates and pictures. I would use her again in a heartbeat!”
“Taylor was such a perfect fit for our 13 year old Labrador Ruby. Ruby's needs for one on one attention were clearly met and probably exceeded as she was so happy and content in Taylor's home. I will definitely hire Taylor next time we need a special someone to take care of our sweet old girl.”
About: I am a stay at home mom with the time to care for your pup as well as mine. Our kids and dog love to play with other dogs. We often take walks in the neighborhood and play fetch in the backyard. I'd be happy to have your dog join us! There is a good amount of lounging on the couch as well! My schedule is flexible and I can accommodate your pups needs. My kids are in middle and high school so we work around the school district schedule. I have a fenced yard in a great neighborhood. My pup will keep your pup entertained. I can crate your dog if needed during the day or at night.
“Daniel was friendly, helpful, flexible, and communicated with us promptly & sent lots of pics. Our dog had a great stay & must have felt safe, happy, and loved because he ate well. (Our pup will go off his feed when feeling out of sorts). Plenty of room for fun play inside the house and in the fenced backyard. We will definitely use Daniel for our Rover next time we are in the area.”
“Paulette and Charlie were the perfect pet parents to my Aussie, Ollie, while I was away. They were affectionate and loving with Ollie, and sent pictures of him daily while Ollie was in their care. Their own dog Molly, is a sweetheart, and the perfect play companion out in their huge, spacious backyard. I felt very comfortable knowing my dog was in the good hands of Paulette and Charlie!”
“Ashley was very good with our 5-month-old rescue puppy on his first pet boarding experience. She sent text updates and videos of him interacting with other dogs and was attentive to his anxiety on the first day. He ended up playing with another puppy and slept through the night both days. Ashley has a great set up for taking care of dogs. I would definitely use her again!”
“Linda took the best care of my elderly Havapoo for a week. I could tell my dog enjoyed herself and bonded with Linda’s family. Linda has a great yard for the dogs to play in. They’re all so happy! I would 100% book with Linda again.”
“Angela was absolutely amazing with Miss Harley! She did a wonderful job in communicating with me while I was out of town, she sent great photos of my dog enjoying her space and the other pups. Highly recommend!”
About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for pets throughout my life, including cats growing up and currently two dogs of my own. I’m very familiar with daily care routines such as feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and behavior monitoring. I enjoy being active with dogs through walks and play, whether that’s structured walks, backyard play, or just giving them attention and enrichment so they stay happy and stimulated. I understand that every pet has different energy levels and needs, and I adjust care accordingly. I’m also comfortable with basic pet care needs, including administering oral medications and supporting pets with special routines or recovery needs, as long as it falls within standard, non-veterinary care guidelines. I’m very detail-oriented and always follow instructions closely to make sure pets stay safe, comfortable, and on schedule. Overall, I’m confident with both dogs and cats of all temperaments and prioritize calm, consistent, and reliable care so pets feel secure while their owners are away. I already care for my doggos at home regularly so it is a natural part of my daily routine. I work mon- Thursday so I'm free friday- Sunday afternoon o care for your animals Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is always keeping them safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine as much as possible. In my home, pets will have a calm, clean environment with supervision and plenty of attention. I maintain a structured routine with feeding, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. I also have two friendly dogs, so visiting pets will be in a real home setting with normal household activity, and I always make sure introductions and space are managed safely. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions exactly as provided, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, litter box care, and any special routines. I’m respectful of the home, keep things tidy, and make sure pets feel secure and not disrupted while their owners are away. In both settings, I pay close attention to behavior and health changes and communicate updates so owners always know how their pets are doing.
“Christell took excellent care of our dog. She was great about communicating with us & making sure his needs would be met. She took Harwin out for walks & he had lots of fun playing with her pups! We would definitely recommend Christell & would let her care for our dog again!”
“Katie was amazing! Not only was she able to help us out very last minute when we had an unexpected change in plans. She treated our pets like family. I know both of our dogs enjoyed their time staying with her and were sad to leave all their new doggy friends. We will absolutely be rebooking with her next time we leave town. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great spot to board dogs!”
About: https://www.rover.com/sit/ktl57871 When it comes to trusting someone with your furry family members, I know how important it is to find someone who not only loves animals, but truly understands them. That’s where I come in. What sets me apart from other animal sitters isn’t just my passion—it’s my experience and hands-on care. As a professional dog breeder, I’ve worked with animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. From the wobbly first steps of puppies to the slow, gentle pace of senior dogs, I understand their unique needs at every life stage. I’m also experienced with administering medications, including pills, topical treatments, and special dietary routines—so if your pet has medical needs, you can rest easy knowing they’re in capable hands. I care for both dogs and cats, and I take the time to build trust with each animal, treating them as I would my own. Whether your dog needs playtime, your cat needs space and patience, or your senior pup just needs a little extra TLC, I tailor my care to fit their personalities and health needs. If you’re looking for a sitter who’s not only responsible and reliable, but who truly understands animals from the inside out—I’d love to be your go-to.

Kasse provided a wonderful home for Scout's stay. This was our first experience with Rover and we were so pleased with Kasse's responsiveness, updates and photos of Scout during his stay, and especially how relaxed and happy Scout was when we brought him home. Kasse has a nice and roomy back yard and Scout had a wonderful time playing with her dogs and other visiting dogs during his stay. We will definitely book with Kasse again! Thank you for taking such good care of our doggie.
jennifer took such great care of our two senior dogs while we were away for two weeks. it was our first time leaving them for that long, so we were definitely a little anxious about it, but she made us feel comfortable right away and really put our minds at ease. she is so congenial, easy to communicate with, and super reliable throughout the whole stay. we came back to two happy, well cared for dogs and felt confident they were in great hands the entire time. we would absolutely trust her with them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter.

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.
