“Steve is flexible and takes such good care of our puppy!! He is also amazing at communicating! We feel very fortunate to have found someone so trustworthy.”
About: My experience caring for dogs began when I was 11 years old, helping foster dogs and learning how to meet the unique needs of pets from different backgrounds and temperaments. Over the years, I have regularly cared for friends' and family members' dogs during week-long stays, providing attentive care, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection while their owners were away. In addition, my experience working in a veterinary office has given me valuable knowledge of animal health, behavior, and safety. This combination of hands-on pet care and professional veterinary experience allows me to provide reliable, compassionate care and ensure every dog feels comfortable, happy, and well looked after. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day! I work part-time, so I have lots of availability for walks, playtime, and check-ins. I'm completely free all day Tuesday through Friday, making those days perfect for dog walking, daycare, or extended care needs. For overnight boarding, I'm home every night to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I love spending time with animals and am happy to provide the companionship, exercise, and attention they deserve while you're away! Your dog will feel right at home when staying with us! We have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy outdoor time. If your dog is crate-trained or prefers having their own space, I am happy to accommodate crating based on your preferences and your pet's routine. One of the best parts of staying in our home is that there are four family members who love animals and are happy to provide extra attention, companionship, and affection. Even if I need to step out for a short time, your dog will still have plenty of company and care. My goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and fun environment where every dog feels loved and welcomed like part of the family!
“Jenny has been a great and reliable walker for Sampson for about a year now. She's great to work with and tries to match Sampson's excitement level to burn some energy...he feels like running, she jogs with him! Sampson loves her!!”
About: As the primary caregiver, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. My family and I are lifelong animal lovers, and we’ve always shared our home with pets. Since moving to the United States, our beloved 5-year-old Husky has stayed with our family in Colombia, so caring for other people’s pets has become a wonderful way for us to continue sharing the love we have for animals. I have experience caring for dogs with patience, responsibility, and genuine affection. My husband and our two children, ages 15 and 11, also enjoy spending time with the pets in our home, giving them plenty of love, playtime, and attention. I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in caring and trustworthy hands. My daily routine gives me the flexibility and time to provide dedicated care for pets. I have spent the last few years working as a caregiver for elderly adults, which has taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, kindness, and paying attention to every detail. A few months ago, my main patient passed away, and now I am able to dedicate my time fully to pet care. Being at home allows me to give pets constant companionship, regular attention, walks, playtime, and the love they need while their families are away. I know pets are not just animals — they are beloved members of the family. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own. Safety, trust, and a loving environment are the foundation of the care I provide. I believe pets are not just animals; they are beloved members of the family, and my goal is for every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were at home. I have had pets my entire life. My family had a husky that we raised from a puppy, and he grew up alongside my children, becoming a very special part of our family. Although he is currently living with our family in another place, that experience taught us the importance of love, patience, responsibility, and understanding each pet’s unique personality and needs. I also have experience caring for different types of dogs, including small dogs, a senior dog who was 15 years old and required special attention, a bonded pair of dogs, and larger breeds, including another husky. These experiences have helped me understand that every dog has different needs, routines, and personalities. When pets stay with me, they become part of our family environment. They will receive constant attention from me, as well as companionship from my children and my husband. I carefully follow every owner’s instructions regarding food, medications, exercise, routines, and any special needs. My priority is to provide a safe, calm, and loving home where pets feel comfortable, while giving their owners peace of mind knowing their furry family member is being cared for with the same love and dedication they would provide themselves.
“Polina is more than a walker to my dog Zoro, she gives him attention and love. I hired her multiple days while out of town and definitely gonna hire her again!”
“Ion took such great care of our dog Eevie and gave great updates! She can be kind of a nervous dog but she got comfortable with him right away. We'll definitely be booking with him again. Thanks Ion!”
“Shannah is amazing! We have never met but I completely trust her coming into my home and walking my babies. I know they are being cared for well when I’m at work thanks to Shannah!”
“Jenny is wonderful! Reggie loves her and came home from his walk happy. She is very personable and you can tell that she truly loves animals. I highly recommend Jenny!”
“Emily is so great with our dog, who loves going on walks with her! She is always on time and very easy to communicate with. Have already hired Emily for more walks, highly recommend.”
About: Im Lily, and I love dogs! •My speciality is large breed dogs! I have my own 100 pound Black Russian terrier, Thea who is my baby. •I am also very comfortable with watching and walking intact dogs. As I know the importance of a large breed staying intact until they are fully mature. I have experience caring for dogs in heat, and understand the behavior change that occurs in the dog experiencing it and the potential for it to effect male dogs around. • I am happy to help with potty breaks throughout the day, walks, bathes, basic training, and preparing specialty meals for your puppy! I am not a dog trainer but I am more than comfortable and capable of helping with basic training for dogs and puppies, such as, potty training, recall, on leash walking, and basic commands (sit, stay, down, etc) • I do love big dogs, but I would be ecstatic to help with your puppy or small dogs, since my dog has grown up, I don’t get to experience having a little pup/dog around. • Socialization is great for dogs but can be hard to trust when you don’t know a dogs temperament or vaccination status. If you are looking for your dog to have social activity with a well behaved, healthy dog Thea would be more than happy to join a walk or play date. I am currently a student taking online classes, so my availability is open. I am very flexible and more than happy to be on your schedule! I have a fenced yard and my own dog is extremely friendly with other animals including small dogs. Inside of my home I do not leave things laying around that could potentially harm my own dog or others. My kitchen is clean and I don’t leave food out so a dog getting into something they shouldn’t would be very hard.
“Jonathan is the first person who I have felt really comfortable leaving Parker with for long periods of time. His gentle nature is exactly what the Parker pup needs!”
“Logan is an excellent dog walker—attentive to my dog’s needs and great with all kinds of dogs, including our energetic puppy. He’s reliable, gets the walks done in a timely manner, and always makes sure the dogs are well cared for. I really appreciate that he takes photos during each visit—it gives me peace of mind and makes my day. I highly recommend Logan to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog walker!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid. I have two dogs of my own and I love them with all my heart. I just raised a puppy this year and I have plenty of experience handling strong and difficult dogs, including escape artists. I will give your dog the care, attention, and exercise it needs to be healthy and happy. I am available to walk your dog in the morning before 7AM during the week, and on my hour long lunch breaks when I work from home on Tuesday and Thursday. Saturday and Sunday I am available all day. My dogs are crate trained so I am familiar and comfortable with doing that if needed. I am active and healthy so any exercise that your dog needs, I can happily do.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Highlands Ranch is $20

Lindsay is the best!! I’d like to continue to share my duties with Lindsay but now it’s my turn to turn up the dial. My procedure was denied Lindsay so now I must go this alone before I lose any more muscle mass. Happy Birthday to you Aug 14th. I’ll be in touch if we need to resume. Thank you!!!
I have nothing but good things to say about Ion. Right away during the initial interaction our dog Dulce, who is normally timid with new people, immediately trusted him and felt comfortable around him. He showed up at the agreed times and took her on her walks and provided plenty of updates and photos and accommodated any requests. Would highly recommend Ion if you are looking for someone who will treat your pet like his own.
Pam came over to spend some time with Loki Wednesday morning. Pam and my husband, Jim, walked Loki up to the park and Pam had the opportunity to walk Loki on her own. Jim said Loki was very responsive to Pam and Pam was confident and comfortable with Loki. Loki is a rescue we adopted about 7 months ago. He is very shy and slow to warm up to new people. Yesterday was the 3rd time Loki has met Pam and Jim and I could not be happier with how he is taking to Pam. Pam is very gentle and reassuring with Loki. We are so appreciative of the time and attention Pam is willing to give Loki before she cares for him for an extended period.
Katelyn has been walking our dog Amina for about two months now and has been fantastic. She is consistent, honest, amazing with Amina, patient and prepared! I'm so glad we decided to invest in her services to help us make sure Amina gets enough daily exercise!
Sydney has been so helpful! We had to urgently switch our daycare for our pup and she is so good about taking our dog out for a long walk and even hangs out with her for a bit to get her acclimated back in the house afterwards. Would highly recommend her for your pet care needs!
Kelli was one of our first experiences with Rover, and we were pretty nervous about having someone we didn’t know take care of our sweet baby, Bruce. From the start, Kelli was amazing! She set up a meet and greet, and we could immediately tell she was a great fit. We also had a phone call beforehand to go over the details, and she was fantastic—by the end of it, all my nerves were completely gone. Bruce absolutely loves Kelli, and she did an incredible job keeping him active and tiring him out—which is no easy task! I would 100% recommend Kelli to my friends.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Highlands Ranch. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Highlands Ranch.

Every walker 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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Highlands Ranch. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
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 walker.
