About: For most of my life, I have been a dog mom, and I understand how crucial it is to know that your dogs are well cared for while you're gone. I'm here to assist you. After retiring from my corporate job, I've decided to follow my passion for animals. I have spent over a decade caring for the dogs of friends and neighbors. I am certified in animal massage and have been a volunteer at the Humane Society of Boulder Valley since 2016. I can't wait to meet you and enjoy some wonderful time with your four-legged companion! I have availability during the week and weekend to engage with your dog. This can be walks or a hike during the day, a playdate with my dogs, a basic training session, or just 1:1 cuddle time hanging out on the sofa watching our favorite show. The safety and well-being of your dog is top priority! We will find what works best for you and your dog. It can be a walk, engagement, basic training, canine massage, a play date, snuggle time...whatever meets your dogs needs that day.
About: I have been a devoted cat and dog owner for many years and have medical experience from my late cat which included glucose testing, IVs, and insulin injections. My husband and I whole-heartedly believe our pets are our family and we're the ones living in their castle. Therefore, your pets will be treated like the kings and queens that they are. My husband and I usually tag team pet sitting, we have opposite schedules so usually someone can always be around if not the both of us! We have a small fenced yard and our pup is bell trained due to us having strictly indoor cats. Any special routines you have in your home we will be sure to follow.
“Jessica did an amazing job. Super conscientious and her updates with videos made me so happy and set my mind at ease. We highly recommend her, especially for cat sitting!”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. Back home in Turkey, I had my own pets, I took care of my friends pets while they were on vacation. I regularly looked after stray cats and dogs; feeding them, giving them water, and making sure they felt safe. I truly enjoy spending time with pets and treating them with love and patience as if they were my own♥️ i'm currently working as a teacher during the weekdays 7:30am to 4:30pm i would love to fill out the rest of my time with spending time with pets!! i am fully available weekends as long as i'm not working, i will try to fit into your and your pets schedule. you can tell me what are your pets needs and what they love, i will always try to show up with them happily
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.
“Emma is an absolutely wonderful pet sitter! She was totally reliable, sent me great updates (including about how much my picky eater ate at each meal), sent loads of pictures every day, and most importantly took perfect care of my dogs. I couldn't dream of a better pet sitter! Hire Emma and put your mind at ease!”

About: Hi, I am Tigran. I started and run a dog rescue in Colorado called Havok's Wolfpack. I help dogs in high kill shelters of neighboring states find great new homes in Colorado. I am currently living in the South East park Boulder. I regularly host foster dogs so my home isn't a dog-free environment when I'm not sitting through Rover. All of my foster dogs are friendly. I run my organisation remotely, so I have ultimate flexibility for dog care, walks and attention. Currently fully available. Will be able to respond within an hour. I explore new hikes and dog walks multiple times a day. Your pup will be extremely happy every time I show up. I travel to clients homes and have no issues handling the biggest and most energetic dogs. Happy to accommodate owners requests when it comes to handling dogs.
About: I trained my dog, Brady, to be off-leash and a great friend. I can help puppies with simple training while on leash or assist your older dogs with patient sniff walks. I work full time from home, but want to help neighbors who cannot always be home. I am available to assist in the afternoon before you come home from work or later in the evening if you decide to have dinner later than expected. I am respectful of your rules and will always be on time. Your pets needs are my concern. I take the time to get to know each dog’s unique personality and pace, making sure they feel safe, seen, and relaxed on every walk. With gentle handling, consistent routines, and plenty of praise, I build trust through calm energy and attentive care, just like you would.
“Zoe & Ava were great with our cat Boba! They sent excellent updates each day with lots of photos. There was some inclement weather the first day of our trip and they even said they could check in on Boba if weather things got bad which was a weight off our minds. Would definitely book again!”

About: I grew up with three cats and eventually got my own kitty (now 6 years old)! While I've been a cat-owner most of my life, at heart, I am a dog lover and can't wait to start that adventure once life allows the time! I’ve enjoyed taking care of dogs for family and friends for years and would love to help out more people nearby. I work 10 hour shifts as a nurse and love to spend my extra time caring for animals. I’m always free on Mondays and am open to weekends for returning customers. I always make sure with any pet I'm caring for that they get the attention, play time and love they need! I make sure they're safe by checking their food/water supply, ensuring doors are secure as intended and of course have proper bathroom breaks - all while ensuring home security too. Safety and living a happy, love-filled life is my top priority for all pets!

About: I’ve had dogs for 15 years, and loved, trained, and raised them from puppy age until the very end. I’ve taken care of friends and family dogs for seven years. I have experience in senior dog care and know how important it is to go at their pace, on their time. I’ll only take on full-day or overnight pets on my days off, which means they will get my undivided attention. Plenty of bathroom breaks, walks, and love. Dogs are allowed on the furniture in my apartment, so just let me know if those aren’t your rules. I live in an apartment with a balcony. There’s plenty of open space in the surrounding area and we’ll go on lots of adventures, as long as it suits your pup! I will always keep your dog on a leash unless you tell me otherwise.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and absolutely love spending time with them. I’m currently a proud dog owner of a 30-lb Lab/Corgi mix and a 70-lb German Shepherd, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. My German Shepherd is currently recovering from an injury after an accident where he jumped from my second-story balcony. He is in the process of having surgeries and recovering, which has given me even more experience with providing careful, attentive care, following recovery instructions, and making sure a dog feels safe and comfortable while healing. I’m happy to stop by and give your dog the attention and exercise they need, including walks, playtime, and companionship. I’ll make sure they’re well cared for during my visit, and I’m also happy to send photos and videos so you can see how your pup is doing while you’re away. I work Monday–Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM, so my availability is primarily in the evenings during the week, i am available all day throughout the weekends. My schedule is flexible outside of my work hours, and I’m happy to work with you to find a time that fits your dog’s routine. While I currently have the most availability on weekends, I can also accommodate evening walks and drop-in visits during the week. I’ll do my best to be flexible and make sure your pup gets the care and attention they need! Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll treat your pup like one of my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and supervision throughout their stay. I’ll keep a close eye on them, make sure they’re comfortable and settled, and give them a safe and loving environment to enjoy. My dogs are friendly, social, and love meeting other dogs. They have experience being around other pups and have never caused issues or fights at dog parks. I’ll always make sure every dog feels comfortable and respected, while giving them plenty of love, attention, and playtime.
About: We’re a family of four who loves caring for dogs. We have 2.5 acres, a fenced in yard, and give lots of TLC. Walks around the neighborhood and on trails too. My husband and I work from home and love going on walks. When the kids are home from school they dote on the animals a lot too. In the house, your dog is welcome to go where they please & feel most comfortable…which is often right by us. Feel free to bring their own dog bed or any blankets that remind them of home. We board no more than 2 dogs at once, and often it’s just one. The house is still a home. And your best buddy welcome anytime!
About: I have been taking care of various size/breed dogs for over 20 years. I only have roughly 5 years experience with cats, but I am comfortable taking care of them. I’m currently a stay at home dad, but my youngest just started preschool 2 days per week so I have some extra time. I have 2 dogs at home. Monday/Thursday/Saturday/Sunday is my current availability. I have a fenced yard with 2 dogs at home. One 10lb dachshund/chihuahua mix, and one 80lb Bernese/Anatolian mix. They are both friendly with other dogs.
“Delane took great care of Chewy! We sent through a super last minute request for Christmas week and she was very gracious and communicative throughout the whole process 🙌”

About: I’ve been privileged to have dogs be apart of my entire life. From having them as pets, caring for others, and volunteering for multiple shelters over the years, dogs have been a priority for me. I have deep respect for routines and instructions, can work with new born to seniors (who are just babies really), and will give them the love and attention they deserve. I am currently working on aspects of my education and have a lot of time to dedicate to pet care. I have minimal travel this Summer, so would be interested on a one time walk to a long term sit, and everything in between. I have reliable transportation and I’m allergic to being late. Communication and following instructions is top priority for me, so you will never wonder how your wonderful companion is doing. When caring for pets in your home my priorities include respecting your property, your instructions, and your animals needs. Schedules are followed to a T and communication including updates and pictures if wanted!

About: HELLO!!! My name is Sarah, and I would absolutely love to care for your fur babies!! Animals have been at the center of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them isn’t just something I do—it’s who I am. Since I was a little girl, I’ve had a deep love for animals of all kinds (including a few “wild” neighborhood friendships that my parents didn’t always approve of 😊). From dogs and chickens to squirrels and everything in between, I’ve always felt most at home around animals. That lifelong passion has grown into a genuine commitment to giving pets the love, safety, and attention they deserve. I have a special place in my heart for pets with unique needs. My dog Gus was paralyzed from the waist down for most of his life, and my dog Ronnie was half blind with several health challenges. Because of this, I’m very experienced and comfortable caring for disabled, senior, or medically complex pets. I understand the extra patience, gentleness, and attentiveness they require—and I’m here to provide exactly that. If your pet needs specialized care, you can feel confident they’ll be in compassionate, capable hands. I offer a range of services including overnight stays, drop-in visits, and support with puppy routines and training. Whether you need consistent care or occasional help, I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s specific needs and your schedule. I’m based in the greater Boulder County area and live with my partner, our dog Sydney, and our two beautiful ducks, Trudy and Winnie—so our home is full of love for animals of all kinds!!! 🦆🪿 My schedule is currently very flexible! I’m both an early riser and a night owl, which allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, playtime, and cuddles. 🥰 Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I know how important routines, trust, and communication are—especially for pets who need extra care. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and will always go the extra mile to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. If you’re looking for someone dependable, attentive, and truly passionate about animals, I’d love to connect. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! ❤️ My schedule is currently wide open, so I have plenty of time to love on your fur babies throughout the day! I'm an early riser, and a late bed time goer - So my availability is wide open for your pet needs. :) I take care of other peoples' pets with the same love and care that I give my own at home. If there is a specific routine that your pet needs to be followed, just let me know - I understand the need for specific schedules and routines, especially for handicapped/disabled little ones! So I will go above and beyond to make sure your babies are comfortable, loved and well taken care of!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lafayette
Mackenzie is a fantastic pet sitter. We had some travel troubles and she was so kind to stop by for an extra drop in when we were struggling to get back home. She provided excellent care for our cats and dog, and peace of mind that our pets were safe while we were away.

Sebastian did a great job taking care of Monty, Minnie, and Artie (dog, dog, cat). Monty had just had a suprise health scare and needed medication and Sebastian took care of him. He was smart and judicious with walk lengths in the extreme heat. We will defiantly call Sebastian again.

Danielle was great with Rumi! She was very responsive and spent quality time during our meet and greet, which I really appreciated. Rumi is a senior dog, and Danielle was very caring and attentive to his needs. She was also flexible with timing, which made everything easy. I felt very comfortable having her care for Rumi and would absolutely book with her again.

Mia was fantastic with our pets! We have two dogs and a cat, so our house can be pretty chaotic. Mia took all of our eccentric, particular instructions in stride and did great. One of our pups in particular can be pretty difficult, and Mia was so great with him that he didn’t even bark at her—not many new folks can win him over like this! I highly recommend Mia for your pet care!

Hanna did an amazing job checking in on my dog and cat with my last minute check-in request. Followed my instructions to a T and left the house in great shape. They also went above and beyond, taking care of our foster dog esp. with some complicated health stuff/instructions. Great communication. Will rebook again in the future.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lafayette stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Lafayette choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Lafayette with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
