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.

About: Hello! My partner, our 2.5 year old daughter, and I live in Niwot on about an acre — 25% is fenced. We have a 20 lb female Sheepadoodle, Elsa, who sleeps inside at nights but spends most afternoons in the backyard sunbathing (at her leisure) — and although doesn’t love playing with other dogs, is very accepting of sharing her space. Our daughter (and we!) love having dogs play in the yard and evening neighborhood dog walks — so thought we would open our home to other pups. We also have the ability to separate the dogs if your pup prefers their own space (in the yard or sunroom). We have had animals (together and individually) for our entire lives and are very able to make your dog feel at home. My partner works full-time from home, and I work a hybrid schedule. Aside from weekends where we leave the house for 4ish hours at a time, someone will always be home and able to check on the dogs. We can board dogs overnight or for day visits. The dogs will be free to be in our yard, sunroom, or on the main floor at night. Open to setting up a crate, as needed. Also, can feed as often as necessary.

I am patient, caring and truly want your furr baby to have a safe, engaging and fun time while in my care. I’d love to take your furr baby for walks and/ or give cuddles; as desired. I first became available on Rover in 2017, first working in California and now in Colorado.

I have plenty of time for your furr baby Please schedule pickup & drop-off times between 7am - 9:30pm. Thank you. I have two dogs and two cats. One dog is a friendly, small-sized older dog. He is calm and will engage with your furr baby as much as they want. I also have a large breed female dog. She is sweet, curious and well-behaved. I have four available crates if you use crating. The cats have separate areas and mostly stay in their own room during dog boarding.

About: I am a mature adult male with time on my hands and love in my heart. I like going for walks, playing fetch, and visits to the dog park. I have always liked dogs better than most people. I feel like our pets are like our own children. Therefore, I will listen to your rules and how you want your dog treated. I have had dogs, cats and fish most of my life. It is my goal in life to be as helpful as possible. I live in a home that is on an acre of land, and part of that is fenced in. I would love to find a few repeat clients, so I can build a relationship with you and your pet. Thank you!

My dog has a little separation anxiety, and this was her first time staying with Sally, but Sally and her dog Leni were able to sooth her and she seemed to settle in after a few hours. The dogs played for hours, and mine went to sleep right when we got home -- always a good sign! Sally was very accommodating to a changing schedule, and was a delight to work with. A great experience overall.

About: Name typo: actually Alicia, but call me Ali! Also! My prices are actually lower than the ones on Rover. For example, by actual housesitting price is $75 My family has always had pets and I currently have two bunnies. I have cared for dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, bunnies, and other rodents. I ride horses and work at a barn. I am always open to working with and learning about new animals. I am comfortable being hands-on: grooming, providing limited medical assistance, training, and exercising. For house-sitting, I am comfortable performing necessary chores and limited grounds maintenance. I am handy, careful, and detail oriented. Currently looking for a full-time opportunity to help a busy homeowner take care of their animals and property! I am currently looking for a part-time/full-time job as household support for busy homeowners. I am looking for a consistent position, but I am open to also providing occasional help. I am active and love to go on frequent hikes, runs, and walks. My condo has a large park right outside my door. When it comes to training, everything will be based on your preferences and instructions. I believe in verbal praise and/or a small treat for doing the right thing while ensuring that the good behavior is maintained while bad behavior is not rewarded. I am very patient and careful with more skittish animals when building trust; one of my rabbits was very anxious but is now very comfortable being handled now While you are away, you can trust that your pet's routine, love, and care will be matched to your standard. It is my goal to make sure your pets are being cared for and loved as you would for them yourself.

Ryan and Lorien are AMAZING! Super thorough updates with lots of pictures of Fleet multiple times a day, and incredibly detailed and helpful with his schedule and routine. House is set up perfect for watching a doggo and giving each animal their own space. Absolutely blown out of the water, I’ve never been so pleased with a sitter. They made a difficult weekend stress-free because I knew my boy was in good hands.

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.

Dakota and Kate took such wonderful care of Ultra! Their home is super pet-friendly, with a dog door leading to a big yard. They took her on a walk, and she loved making a new friend in their sweet dog, Arlo. We also really appreciated that they set up a meet & greet beforehand. It gave us all peace of mind that the dogs would get along. We’ll be booking with them again... soon!

Jacky was AMAZING with Mecum, I swear he had the best night of his life. She was super attentive to his needs and brought him for many fun activities. Best Rover person I’ve ever met!!! I’m so grateful I met her and can’t wait for future trips for her to hang out with him! :) he moved right in and loved it. Thank you, Jacky! She also sent me frequent updates throughout the night and sent pictures/ videos. You’re the best, Jacky!!!!

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.

Our dog, Scoobi, had the best stay with Sarah!! We were really nervous to be leaving him for the first time but Sarah eased all of our worries right from the get-go. We received daily updates and pictures from Sarah during both Scoobi's boarding stay and while he was there for daycare. Sarah was even kind enough to take Scoobi in last minute for daycare so that he didn't have to be alone in our house! I would highly recommend that you leave your dogs with Sarah! Scoobi was so excited to go back and play! We will for sure be booking with her again the next time we need to find Scoobi coverage.

Curtis has been watching our puppy for almost two months now regularly and does a wonderful job with him. Our puppy is more reserved with people but loves Curtis. He has made the effort to really get to know our dog and provide him with the type of attention and care he needs. Through his patient and thoughtful care he has clearly gained our shy puppy’s affections, which is the ultimate endorsement!

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 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!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Gunbarrel

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Gunbarrel on Rover is $43.29 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 4,035 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Gunbarrel. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 4,035 sitters in Gunbarrel, 85% respond to messages in under an hour.

You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
