“Nathan and Brooke were fantastic dog sitters. They took great care of Clifford all week during day care and clearly treated him like their own. He was happy, well cared for, and excited to see them each day. We really appreciated the updates and the peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, caring sitters.”
“Teresa takes such good care of my fur baby, she’s like a second mama to her! Love the light and energy she puts out too, our conversations are always a joy. Skye comes home happy and tired every time too!”
“Thank you so much for taking such good care of Sir Wayne and little Miss Yuki!!!! I can tell they were very much loved during their visit. They felt comfortable enough to give kisses and play! I’m just so grateful you were able to help and on such short notice. You guys are the best! And your dogs too were such good playmates for my fur balls of energy.”
“Tasha was wonderful! She took great care of my dogs, Lexi and Dexter. I love that they have a huge back yard and two nice pets of their own. I would use her again and recommend her for anyone needing a place for a pet. Blessings!”
“Danielle loves our Kira almost as much as we do! She does a great job sending pics throughout the day and keeping us updated on all things Kira. She's very attentive and recognizes when Kira is nervous or shy with other dogs, and restricts play time to the dogs she is comfortable with. After Kira was bitten at a previous day care, this is super important to us. Danielle is fantastic!”
“DeFi had a fantastic time at Kris’s place today! She updated me with timely pictures throughout his stay, which was reassuring. Kris was very communicative, and DeFi was exhausted from all the playtime with her dogs. He is a happy boy! I highly recommend her, and we’ll be back soon!”
About: I’ve always had a deep love for dogs and cats, spending my life caring for them and making sure they feel loved and happy. Beyond my personal experience, I’ve also volunteered with rescue animal organizations, which has given me the chance to help animals in need and build even stronger skills in caring for them. Friends, family, and neighbors often turn to me as their trusted pet sitter, and I genuinely enjoy being there for their pets. I know how important it is for pet owners to feel confident and connected while they’re away. That’s why I’ll keep you updated regularly and happily share pictures of your pets during our time together—there’s nothing better than seeing them happy and relaxed. My priority is to make sure your pets are well taken care of so you can have peace of mind. I work from home, allowing me to provide a flexible schedule for your pets' potty breaks, frequent walks, and playtime. I live in a neighborhood with lots of walking trails and open spaces where I could take the dogs too (Only if the owner is comfortable with that) Your pets will receive double the care, attention, and love while they stay with us! Living in a house with a backyard , I have a spacious front and back yard where dogs can conveniently have their potty breaks. Moreover, my neighborhoods features a fantastic doggy park and trials providing an opportunity for your furry companions to enjoy the outdoors. Additionally, I am more than happy to take them on frequent walks around the neighborhood to ensure they get plenty of exercise and fresh air. It's worth mentioning that my husband shares the same love and affection for animals as I do. Together, we take pleasure in making new furry friends and providing them with a warm and welcoming environment.
About: My guiding principles is it’s My Duty, Obligation, and Responsibility to ensure the utmost Happiness and Safety of every dog entrusted to my care. Each moment spent with your canine companion; I hold steadfast to this ethos. Recognizing the profound significance of dogs in our lives, it becomes my mission to replicate the familiar warmth and attention they receive at home. Being an ardent dog enthusiast, bringing joy to pups feels like second nature to me. I've cherished a lifelong love for dogs, but my involvement with them extends far beyond mere affection. With over 20 years of experience in dog training, working with animal shelters, and training therapy dogs, my expertise spans a wide spectrum. I've had the privilege of working with countless dogs, and each moment has been invaluable to me. From the tiniest pups to the largest breeds, I've embraced every opportunity to care for them and understand their unique communication styles. When embarking on a new client relationship, I prefer to arrange a meet-and-greet session. This serves as a vital compatibility check, ensuring harmony between all parties involved. Moreover, it offers an invaluable opportunity for us to discuss your dog and your specific care preferences face-to-face. Nobody understands your furry friend better than you do, and engaging directly with owners helps me glean insights into what makes their pup truly happy! Additionally, I relish the chance to meet new dogs, and I make it a point to interact with them at their level, establishing a rapport that promises fast friendship. Recognizing the challenges of being separated from your cherished companion, effective communication becomes paramount. I pledge to keep you updated regularly with photos, offering glimpses into the delightful moments your pup and I share. Whether it's mealtimes or behavioral nuances, I am committed to providing detailed reports that foster peace of mind. Moreover, I welcome any questions or concerns you may have, as your satisfaction is my utmost priority. Going above and beyond is simply part and parcel of my commitment to excellence. Since I work from home, I'm able to give plenty of attention and care to your pet throughout the day. This allows me to easily integrate feeding, playtime, and walks into my daily routine, ensuring your pet is happy and active. My flexible schedule means I can adjust to your pet's needs, providing frequent care and companionship. With over 20 years of experience, I understand the nuances of canine behavior.

“Roo loves hanging out with Russell and Stellina! Really appreciate the flexibility, communication and the pickup/drop off. Phenomenal service and will continue to book!”
“Jen, Jim, their daughter, and their pup all really went out of their way to make sure Harper had a great first day with them. Harper especially loved snuggling and exploring their incredible backyard. 10/10 recommend!”
“Felecia cares deeply for the animals she sees. She takes time to understand their needs and routines. High maintenance dogs or dogs that haven't been trained are not a deal breaker for her. I was very worried about bringing my dog over since he can be a handful, but Felecia was willing to take care of him. She gave me thorough feedback about his stay when I picked him up. Your dog is in good hands with her.”
“Heather and James took the best care of our babies for the day! We also asked them to take our older girl last minute and they were super accommodating. They looked like they had the best day. Murray is the sweetest most welcoming boy and Heather and James are so easy to communicate with. Highly recommend for your fur babies!”
“Joie and Jason are go to sitters for us. We always feel good about leaving Griz with them. And we can tell he loves going to their place, especially if their daughter is home! They treat Griz as if he’s their own and he always comes home happy and worn out. Couldn’t recommend this home more to take care of your pup!”
“Cecily and her family has been nothing but great with my dog. Very attentive, punctual, and someone I can trust to treat my dog as if it were her own. I would highly recommend Cecily for her services!”
“My husky has spent 3 days with Frank now - She has consistently come back home happy and tired from a full day of playing and going on walks. He gives prompt replies, sends pictures throughout the day, and is flexible with drop-off/pick-up schedules. It's so nice to have a trusted, in-house sitter for my fluffy-girl while I'm at work during the day! Thank you, Frank!”
“Megan and Aaron took great care of Dutch and gave a full report on his day. It sounded like Dutch had a little separation anxiety since this was a first visit, but Aaron and Megan tried to make him feel reassured. Will definitely use again!”
“Taylor and her family were amazing! Our pup loved them and their dog, Hailey. My wife and I needed to go to Longmont for the day, and we dropped our pup off at 10am and picked her up at 8pm. Taylor provided potty and feeding updates, and sent some cute photos to us. We will definitely be utilizing her services again!”

Mélody is an amazing and caring dog sitter. She will make sure your pup is well taken care of, whether that’s making sure the pupper get enough exercise to making sure they’re not left alone if they have separation anxiety. She genuinely cares for the dogs she watches and it shows with how happy the dogs are to be there.
Jessica was absolutely amazing with Eila! Eila spent a lot of time outdoors and played really well with her dog too :) She came home very tired at night too which was definitely a perk. She sent lots of photos throughout the day and we really felt that she was in great hands! She was also very flexible and accommodating with our busy and unpredictable schedules. Would definitely use her services again :)
My dogs love it at Denise's! When I drop them off they get excited before I even turn on her street! Denise takes them on a walk (or two!) and the backyard has plenty of room to roam. Denise sends pics and videos and is responsive to inquiries. We're regulars!
Seiyoung deserves 100 stars. I have been unsuccessful to find an actual dog person that is trustworthy on rover in this area of Colorado that does doggy daycare until I found Seiyoung. Her and her family are all experienced dog people and I just knew my two furbabes were being taken care of to the nth degree. These two doggos of mine are my children and I didn’t have one moment of worry as she kept me updated and communicated throughout the day. Both of my boys can be shy and scared while at daycare and they both had a blast despite their very different personalities. I cannot complete this review without mentioning the star of the show- Mango dog. She’s the sweetest dog, kept Turtle my two-year-old cockapoo distracted with playtime and cuddles and was respectful of my older dog Walter’s need for space. If you are able to get lucky enough to get on her schedule, you won’t want anyone else ever again. Seiyoung, Mango and her family set the bar for dog care, I’m truly thankful for them.

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 Highlands Ranch 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.
