“We had a great experience with Abigail when we boarded our 2 dogs. She genuinely cares about animals and it showed in her care. We will use her again....”
“Margaret made me feel comfortable from the start. She listened to Bardi’s schedule/quirks and made me feel at ease with her relaxed responses. She sent so many pictures and gave regular updates. I felt comfortable the entire time and Bardi had a great time.”
“As always, amazing!! Our little Ziggy loves to stay with Jamie and her family. She's always so trustworthy that we can go have a great time and not worry about our pup.”
“Sunnie was awesome! Super easy to talk to and coordinate! I loved getting the updates from how Mike and Patches were doing. Thank you! I will definitely use her again ❤️”
“Stefanie, Ben and family are fantastic rover sitters. We were so impressed by their communication and care. The dogs had an absolute blast and we weren't sure they would even want to come back home with us. Spoiled is an understatement. Will absolutely use them again and again!”
“Murphy loved hanging with Shawna for the weekend! She was communicative, flexible, and generally a great human. We’d loved to use her services again in the future :)”
“Would leave 20 stars if I could! We received lots of updates and were able to have a great vacation knowing Nova was being very well taken care of! Will definitely have Nova stay with Kaitlyn in the future!”
“I am so thankful to have found Tiffany! This was my second time using her and she is an excellent dog sitter. My dog was so excited when he saw her and that made me feel so comfortable leaving him. She is commutative and updates regularly with pictures and videos!”
“Chap and Kristen are the best! Our 7-month old puppy stayed with them for 9 days. It was her first time away from home and we couldn’t have been more comfortable. They have two super sweet dogs, Breck and Aspen, and a great house for hosting other dogs. Chap and Kristen sent us multiple photos and videos each day and were incredibly responsive. I would recommended them to anyone!”
“Diane is one of the best dog sitters that we ever had. She and her husband take care of my dog very nice! Highly recommend for any dog owner in Denver/Lakewood area.”
“This is our second time using Paul to watch our babies, and it was the same as last time. Wonderful! The dogs did great, and we go daily updates. We will definitely be using him the next time we leave town!”
“Bo couldn’t have been happier spending the week with Resa and Penny. We will definitely be return customers. Thank you for all of the great pictures and updates throughout our vacation, Resa!”
“Chris and Amber were awesome. They have a very warm and welcoming home and my dog seemed very happy being there. Chris and Amber were great communicators and very accommodating when we had a schedule change. I would highly recommend them.”
“Our dog came home so happy, tired, and well-loved after her stay with Hannah! Hannah sent us so many pictures of them on long walks. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a rover and will be booking her services in the future!”
“Ruby has the best time when she stays with Cody, Nicole, and Sage! They truly treat her like her own. I was so happy to see her having such a great time and appreciated all the video and pic updates!”
“Victoria was amazing with my Penny. She provided so many updates, took such sweet care of her, and picked her up and dropped her off. Her son was so sweet with my dog, I would recommend them to anyone!”
Lakewood dog parents share their Rover experiences
Finding Stefanie and Ben has me feeling enormously grateful. It has been years since I needed someone outside my immediate circle to watch Cheyenne, but after our meet and greet, I knew I got lucky and met some wonderfully caring people. Logistically smooth, entertaining updates, and easy dialogue, all helped to put me at ease and focus on enjoying my vacation. Next time I travel, they'll be my first call!
Wow- my only word is perfection. Ayla watched our pup while we were out of the country and she was always communicating with us how he was, what they were up to, and any questions she had. We will with out a doubt be using Ayla’s services again, mainly because now our dog is in love with her. 10/10
We had a great experience with Zachary! Our dog came home happy and relaxed. They were attentive to her needs (including giving her her daily medication without any issue) and made sure she got her walks. Communication was easy throughout the stay, and they were flexible when we needed to pick her up early. Would definitely book again!
