“Sarah is an awesome pet sitter. My Border Collie adjusted well to his 3 daycare stays. Sarah’s Aussie was a great companion for Rio. When I picked him up, I could sense he was treated well.”
“Curtis was super helpful with our puppy Ricky. He spent plenty of time outside and was super accommodating of my partner and I’s schedule. Pick up and drop off were a breeze, going to be reaching out again!”
“Tori had a great first doggie daycare day with Charissa's family. She's little, but loved playing with their big dog Akira, and they sent great pictures of her snugging and getting loved on by the kids. We'll be coming back for sure!”
“Georgia was great! My nervous pup had a good time and was relaxed and happy when I picked her up. Communication was fast and clear, and I received an update mid-day.”
About: This is the first year we have not had a dog and are missing having a dog in our house. We have a fenced in acre that could be your dog’s paradise. My husband and I work from home, so there is always someone that would be around to attend to your dogs needs. We are always happy to have a reason to go for a walk :) We have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your dog to explore. We have always had a dog in the past, and would love to have a dog that our family can love on.
“Laika's stay with Alison went well: she was socialized with other dogs, which is great, and she had access to the outdoors to romp and play. She was sleepy when we got home, which is fantastic. :) Alison also sent plenty of pictures so I got to appreciate some of the adventures Laika was having.”
“Christine was fantastic and Lulu had a great time playing with Hondo! Lulu is a very anxious dog—Christine was understanding of her needs and Lulu warmed to her within just this first daycare visit. I’ll definitely be booking again and grateful to have another spot where I know Lu will be happy and wonderfully cared for.”
“Kristina was amazing! We had a half-day visit, before a bigger overnight visit, to allow a meet and greet with her and her pups. Very kind and welcoming for the whole thing, and such an ease to work with!”
About: My name is Margo, but you can also call me Margaret. I’ve taken care of many dogs and other pets in Denver and now in the Boulder area. I have pets of my own and grew up with animals, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. I love spending time with animals at home and exploring the outdoors with them. I work from home most days with a flexible schedule, so I can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I take daily walks, attend dog meetups, and enjoy an active lifestyle on weekends. I offer both boarding in my home and house sitting in your home. For boarding, your dog has access to my fenced yard and nearby dog parks. For house sitting, I spend most of my time at your home and follow your pet’s normal routine while giving them plenty of attention and companionship.
“Alexander was such a wonderful sitter! He was easy to work with, communicate with, and was beyond friendly. He clearly had a nice and clean home. His dog is such a cute sweetheart! She was kind enough to allow my pup come in and relax. He was knowledgeable and very responsible, ensuring a safe environment, for all his animals:) truly 100/10 of a sitter!!!”
“Rui and her partner did a great job caring for my dog with separation anxiety. They were very accommodating and easy to work with. Rui was very communicative throughout the stay, sending pictures and a report card of their day together. It is a relief to know that I can trust them to meet the special needs of my dog. I recommend them and will be using their services again myself too!”
“Benny had an AMAZING time at Jessica's! Loved getting the video and pictures of him having the zoomies and playing in the pool. Jessica was easy to communicate with and 100% will be using her services again.”
About: I have 36 continuous years of personal experience caring for, handling, and living with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and breeds. Over nearly four decades, I have successfully managed everything from high-energy puppies to gentle senior dogs requiring special patience and medication schedules. My deep familiarity with canine behavior allows me to read a dog's body language quickly, keep environments calm, and handle unexpected situations with total confidence. I specialize in providing structured, loving care that makes dogs feel safe and relaxed right away. I work from home, which means pet care is seamlessly integrated into my entire day. Because I am always home, guest dogs are never left unattended for long periods. My daily routine is highly flexible, allowing for constant companionship, frequent potty breaks, and immediate attention whenever a dog needs it. I schedule regular play breaks in the yard and structured walks around the lake throughout the day, ensuring that your pet maintains a consistent routine that closely mirrors the comfort and attention they receive at their own home. Safety is my absolute highest priority. My home features a large, fully fenced, and secure backyard equipped with an extra-large doggie door, allowing dogs independent and seamless yard access. I have a very friendly, social 6-year-old Labrador who serves as an excellent playmate and co-host for guest dogs. To ensure a safe environment for everyone, I strictly host dogs that are fully potty-trained, non-destructive, and socialized. I also require a mandatory 15-minute meet-and-greet on neutral ground before booking to guarantee a perfect fit.
About: I have taken care of a variety of pets because I have a deep compassion for life of all kind. You can trust me with your animals as I am kind, reliable and trustworthy. I’m currently working part time and am available most days all day. My dad is retired and is available throughout all the days and loves animals just as much as I do! On the days that I do work, I am available before 2pm. Please reach out for my schedule on any given day! I have a big home and a 1 acre fenced yard so I am able to provide a secure environment for your pets. I do not currently have any pets or children at my home so the house will be empty for me and your pet to play!
About: I have over 15 years of dog caring experience, involving different breeds, ages, and personalities. My specialty is smaller doggies. My philosophy with care makes sure dogs get active time, park time, quality time, fun adventures, time with friends, and lots of affection. I make sure your doggy needs are met, being versatile with the activities we do while they stay at my place. As a mostly remote worker, I have a lot of flexibility and ample time to take your dog on walks and give them lots of care and attention, be it on the couch or outside. Doggies have access to water, clean bowls, toiletries, and all their basic needs. My entire place is dog-proofed, so hazard mitigation is present. Dogs have the opportunity of enjoying different surfaces based on their needs, including hardwood, carpet, rugs, and a comfy couch.
About: Growing up with pets, I’ve always had a deep connection with animals. My background in energy healing helps me tune into each pet’s unique needs, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable and loved while you’re away. After a decade of not having my pets, I'm deeply deficient in animal cuddles - I make up for it by showering my furry clients with extra affection, belly rubs, and snuggles. Whether your pet needs a calming presence, senior care, or just an adventure buddy, I provide attentive, personalized care so you can have peace of mind. I can’t wait to meet your fur family! I have a few recurring weekly meetings that I can join remotely, so I am available to housesit any time as long as there is steady internet. I am available to dog walk or make home visits in the afternoons. I can only provide care for pets in a client's home, as several elderly rescue dogs are living out their best lives at my home.
About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up with many different dogs and cats. As an adult, I have raised and cared for three incredible dogs of my own, giving me a deep, firsthand understanding of the daily dedication, patience, and love it takes to keep a pet thriving.My background also includes professional pet care experience. Years back, I owned and operated my own successful dog walking business, managing schedules, building trust with clients, and ensuring the safety of dogs of all shapes and sizes. Additionally, I studied to become a professional dog trainer, which gave me a strong foundation in canine behavior, body language, and positive reinforcement techniques.Whether your pup needs a structured routine, a calm environment to relax, or a sitter who truly understands how to read and manage their unique personality, they will be in expert, experienced hands. Because I tailor my home environment exclusively to hypoallergenic and low-shedding breeds, your dog will enjoy a clean, dander-free space filled with personalized attention! As a stay-at-home parent, my schedule is incredibly flexible, and I am home throughout the day. While one of my children attends public school, I homeschool my other child right here from the comfort of our house. This means our daily routine naturally revolves around being home, making it easy to provide constant supervision, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of companionship for your dog.We already have one friendly dog of our own, so a structured pet routine is already built into our lifestyle. Your pup will seamlessly blend into our daily rhythm of neighborhood walks, playtime, and relaxing by my side while we go about our day. Because I am always around, your dog will rarely be left alone and will receive attentive, round-the-clock care! I focus exclusively on hosting hypoallergenic pets inside my own home, where I can provide a safe, comfortable, and highly attentive environment. Because my family is home throughout the day, guest dogs enjoy a structured routine tailored to their specific comfort levels, baseline habits, and energy needs. Our home features a beautiful, big backyard equipped with a secure dog door. This setup allows your pup the freedom to safely pop outside for a quick sunbathe, a sniff around, or a bathroom break whenever they please, while still enjoying total access to a cozy, indoor space. Whether they love zooming around the grass, playing with our friendly resident dog, or just curling up next to me while we homeschool, your dog will be treated exactly like a member of our own family!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gunbarrel
Krista and Reid were fantastic with Lulu and she warmed up to them very quickly, which is not typical for my anxious pup! They were friendly and flexible about timing and their yard is perfect for lots of playtime and zoomies. Will definitely book with them again! Always grateful to find sitters who are so loving and patient with Lu.
Christine is a wonderful, thoughtful human and a loving, professional dog person! My two huskies loved their day with her and sweet Hondo. They enjoyed their walk (not always an easy feat but no problem for Christine), the beautiful backyard, and all the understanding and love they received. My one husky has extreme separation anxiety and had absolutely no desire to leave. That says it all!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Gunbarrel commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
