“We used Rover for the first time and had an absolutely wonderful experience with Jolene and Thomas. We felt very comfortable meeting Jolene. She provided excellent updates and pictures throughout the weekend. We can tell that our dog also was very comfortable in their home and returned to us well taken care of. Jolene and Thomas provided excellent care and we recommend them without any reservations”
“Raffelina is an excellent" puppy sitter". She took care of our 15 year old and our 1 year old. She took great care of our older dog who can't hear or see and I believe she was very caring and loving toward her. The same with our little puppy who demands a lot of attention too. Communication with us was exceptional. We received both texts and pictures. I highly recommend Raffelina to care for any pets.”
About: I have 20+ years of experience taking care of senior dogs, puppies, and rambunctious teens. I lost my senior girl in August 2026 and have wanted to spend time with the energy and love of dogs since then. She was on a few medicines, but we made her sunset years beautiful and fun. I would love to spend time with your pets, making sure they are happy, safe, and comfortable while you are gone! I’m currently looking for remote work and have all the time in the world for your pets! I am interested in spending time outside with pets, making sure they are having fun while you are gone! My home is open to dogs, but unfortunately an allergy prohibits cats. I have a ranch style house which is nice and easy for seniors to get in and out of. The backyard is fenced so they can roam, or we can put on a leash and explore the land around us. I have dog beds and toys for them to tear up or carrying around - whatever’s clever!
About: Hi there! I’m Hannah! I’ve grown up my entire life with dogs at home. I have had experience caring for small dogs as well as very large breeds. I have lots of experience pet sitting for many days ( even weeks) at a time. I have cared for every kind of dog from small and old with special needs to large and very playful requiring lots of exercise. I am a very active person and will gladly take your pup on runs and long walks if needed. I would be very grateful to spend some time with your pet and will care for them as if they are my own. I am available anytime throughout the week and I am also available weekends as well.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Howard 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 Howard.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Howard 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.
