“Jennifer and her girls were great! They took care of our very-active Border Collie for a long weekend and he was tired out and happy when we picked him up. They even took him camping with them and sent us videos! We will definitely use her service again.”
“Erin and her family were fantastic sitters for my dog Pika! Erin sends lots of photos and has 2 very friendly dogs that made Pika feel right at home. Especially in a pinch when we had last minute plans around Christmas. Highly recommend, thank you so much Erin!”
“Kaitlin was fantastic! Very helpful, accommodating and timely with communication. She sent several photos of my dog while he was staying with her. Cannot thank you enough for caring for my dog, I know he was in good hands.”
“Felt secure in leaving our pup with these folks. They are very caring of your animals and take them on good walks and adventures. Pictures included. They also are very capable and knowledgeable. And we would without a doubt use them again for future boardings.”
“Ducky had the best overnight stay! You could tell she felt right at home — she came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Thank you for taking such good care of our girl. I would definitely recommend Carolina to others!”
“Elizabeth was super responsive, friendly and reliable. She was great with our dogs and was such a savior when our flight got canceled and helped us watching our dogs on a short notice! Would definitely recommend her and work with her in the future!”
About: I work shift work so I have many days off throughout the week. I have a husky, so dog walks are top priority. I have a backyard and a long lead for your dog to run around! I love dogs and hiking, so this gig is perfect! I've had dogs in my life and had the pleasure of helping my friends raise their dogs as well. You can ensure your dog will be safe, loved and have fun when they're in my care! I usually take my dog on 2 walks or 1 long activity every day! The available days ive set, are my off days so I have the ability to be home or close to home if needed! I can take your pet on multiple walks during the day! I have a backyard with a lead so lots of time can be spent outside if theyd like!
About: I grew up on a small farm with lots of animals, always taking the dogs on walks or keeping the cat food away from raccoons. I've walked many people's dogs across the country of various sizes and ages and love having pets in the home while I don't have any myself. I usually am working from home or gone for a few hours a day. I love waking up and walking the dog outside before starting my day and winding down in the evenings the same way. Walking/outside breaks throughout the day is crucial for me and I love having a pet to accompany me. On the weekend I love to hike in the mountains and enjoy taking dogs. I have a park next to my apartment for easy walks., I'm always attentive to their eating schedule. Pets get a lot of attention and snuggles especially in the evening.
About: What sets me apart is the personalized attention, patience, and genuine care I provide to every dog—especially puppies. 🐾 I understand that puppies need extra patience, supervision, playtime, and consistency while they learn and grow. I take the time to follow their routines, provide plenty of love and attention, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. Pet care is ideal for me, as I am looking for a flexible way to work while doing something I truly enjoy. I love animals and would be delighted to dedicate my time to looking after dogs and ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My apartment is small, but it offers a clean, quiet, and comfortable environment where your pet can feel safe and right at home. 🐶❤️ I maintain a calm, safe space with plenty of personalized attention, ensuring that every pet is supervised and well cared for throughout their stay. I understand that every pet has different needs, routines, and personalities, so I tailor my care to each one.
“Karen was amazing and our dog just loved her! We had some time to kill before a wedding and were able to pick him up and take him for a hike. When we went back to drop him back off after our hike, our dog was genuinely happy to see her, it was great. If I could rate more than 5 stars I would. Super cool and great experience.”
“They are amazing dog sitters and the reason we could enjoy the great hikes in Aspen. Lucky had a great time with them. Thank you so much for accommodating our schedules.”
“Lu and his family were absolutely fantastic. We were in Colorado visiting family and needed a Rover to look after our pups while we were there. I was a bit nervous leaving them with someone they hadn’t interacted with before, but I was quickly set at ease with the way Lu welcomed them into their home. I got tons of pictures and the dogs were happy as clams. I would recommend him highly for anyone looking for a sitter that treats your pets as his own. Thank you so much Lu!”
“Highly recommend! Finding someone on short notice was stressful, esp with a 13 yr old pup, but everything worked out with Stuart! Communication was clear from the start, as well as quick and reassuring. I could tell right away when I dropped Boone off that he was in good hands! So nice to have peace of mind for my old man!”
About: I've been a professional pet sitter, house sitter, and nanny for 9 years. My services currently include dog boarding in my home. Once established with a dog following boarding, I am available for drop in visits as well. My partner, Graham, is at home full time as he works and studies remotely. One of us will be with your dog 80 - 90% of the stay. We have a two bedroom apartment with plenty of space for a dog. Our complex has a fenced in dog park that is often unused and will offer your dog uninterrupted play time. Resident dogs on the property are very friendly and leashed. I am comfortable with specific routines, medication administration, and requests. I will also be able to provide you with updates and photos of your pet throughout your trip! I am home part time and can provide engaged care and play through the day. My partner, Graham, is home full time so your pup will never be without access to outside time or attention. Our two bedroom apartment has plenty of space and lounging areas for your pup. I do not offer a crate, but you may bring your own. I prefer to keep your pup out of the crate as much as possible and would only crate them at your discretion, as needed. We have plenty of walking trails on the property and a fenced in dog park. Outside breaks would occur every 2 - 4 hrs.
About: I work very part-time and not during the summer at all. I take the girls every morning on a long walk, hike or to the river to play. They come everywhere with us in the car and to the kids outings. ideally the dog we are hosting loves to hike off leash and come for car rides. Dogs must love kids (three boys ages 8, 10 and 12) and our two sweet, docile female dogs. Our dogs are never home alone more than an hour a day and roam the house when so. We also foster regularly for a local rescue but I wouldn’t overlap our foster dogs with a client. I don’t work during the summer and the rest of the year it’s very part time. We walk or hike every morning. On days that aren’t too hot the girls come with me in the car for errands and to take my kids to their activities. We have an unfenced yard and a deck. Our girls just lay in the sun but I also have a tie out if your dog isn’t perfectly trustworthy. Dogs are allowed to roam the house and sleep on any bed :) If they like their crate i’m happy to set that up for them.
About: I’ve owned and trained two dogs from puppyhood—a Husky and my current German Wirehaired Pointer, Lenny. Training and building a strong relationship with my dogs has always been important to me. Having lived in the Roaring Fork Valley for over 12 years, I spend most of my time outdoors hiking, walking, and exploring. When your pup stays with me—whether for an hour, a day, or overnight—you can count on them getting plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention. They’ll come home happy, tired, and ready to snuggle. I work from home so I usually get out for a walk or run in the morning. Afternoon jont to split up the day and then an evening activity depending on what is on the schedule. I have a fenced backyard and Lenny (my pup) to add to the fun. She’s a great companion to other dogs but also great for training.
About: I have over six years of hands-on experience caring for dogs through volunteering, fostering, and private dog sitting. I’ve worked with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors — providing walks, feeding, medication, playtime, and lots of love. I’ve also volunteered with All Aboard Animal Rescue, where I gained experience handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I always make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away, keeping their routine consistent and their tails wagging. Pet care fits smoothly into my daily routine! I have classes at 8 a.m. and 1 p.m., which still leaves me plenty of time throughout the day for walks, feeding, and playtime. I love spending my mornings and afternoons with dogs, and I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and affection. Whether it’s early walks before class or extra snuggles in the evening, I always make time for quality care. Safety and comfort are my biggest priorities when caring for dogs. In my home, I create a calm, clean space with room to play and rest. When I’m caring for dogs in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to keep routines consistent and pets feeling secure. I pay close attention to feeding times, leash safety, and environment setup to ensure every pup stays happy, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away.
“Nicole is hands down amazing! She cared for my pups as if they were her own. If you’re looking for the best to care for your furry family members look no further. Nicole is the BEST!”
About: Hi, I’m Maya! I’m a huge animal lover and will be sure to take amazing care of your babies and give them lots of love! I currently work a 9 to 5 but am remote 2 days a week and can bring dogs into my office any day of the week. Colorado is a beautiful place to walk or hike with dogs, so I’ll be sure to find somewhere they’ll have lots of fun and be able to play.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gypsum
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Service and Exceptional Care! I cannot say enough wonderful things about the love and care they showed my dog, Captain! From the very beginning, they went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. What impressed me the most was the excellent communication. They kept in constant contact with me, sending pictures and updates, which gave me such peace of mind knowing Captain was in loving hands. They even spoiled him with dog toys, which was such a thoughtful and sweet gesture! It’s clear that they genuinely love animals and treat them like family rather than just another pet. Captain came home clean, happy, and loved! I truly appreciate the kindness, attention, and extra effort they put into caring for him. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for someone who will treat their furry family member with genuine love and care. We will definitely be returning! ❤️🐾
Brian was so wonderful with our dogs. He sent pictures and videos daily while we were on vacation, giving us peace of mind that they were being well taken care of. He took them on walks and he had a big yard for the dogs to play in. His dogs are also very friendly and everyone got along great. We will definitely be asking him to watch the dogs again!
Kathleen & Ryan were excellent with both the care and communication before and during Blu’s stay. They were very understanding and flexible when adjusting drop-off and pick-up times due to my travel schedule, which I truly appreciated. They kept me updated constantly with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Blu was well cared for and comfortable with them. Their daughter was also so sweet and excited to help take care of Blu, and it was really heartwarming to see how much love and attention Blu received from the whole family. I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for pet care, and whenever they are available and I need care for Blu again, I would absolutely leave her with them. Thank you all so much!
Felt secure in leaving our pup with these folks. They are very caring of your animals and take them on good walks and adventures. Pictures included. They also are very capable and knowledgeable. And we would without a doubt use them again for future boardings.

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.
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.
98% of sitters in Gypsum can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Gypsum 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 Gypsum.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gypsum. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Gypsum 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
