“Shakti was great with our pup. Willow can be offish with strangers but she looks like she adapted perfectly with Shakti. Shakti provided lots of pictures and it was obvious our pup had a great time. I recommend Shakti highly.”
“Victoria sent sweet photos and videos of our dog. She seemed safe and happy during her stay with Victoria! She was tired when she got home from playing with Victoria's puppy all weekend!”
“Thank you again for taking care of my baby and making him feel part of your family 🤍. I knew he was going to be safe and the happiest boy. He will miss you and Roxy🤍”
“Chris, Amber & the kids took amazing care of Moose! It truly felt like a home away from home for him. He had plenty of backyard space to play, got long walks, lots of attention, and we received daily photos and great communication. Definitely recommend!”
“Our puppy Pickle had a great stay with Genevieve! She was super communicative with us, sent pictures, and even had a full set of puppy equipment there so we didn’t have to bring a crate or her bowls. Looking forward to using her again!”
“Steve and Susan were wonderful and welcomed Lucy into their home with love and enthusiasm. They sent almost daily photos and texts giving us such great peace of mind. Lucy had many walks and playtimes and was thrilled to have complete freedom in their large backyard. She also was included in their family time, cooking and hanging out, and was very happy. We highly recommend them!”
“Cody and Nicole are the best. They are wonderful with our pup. He comes home happy and tired! Thank you Nicole for being so flexible and accommodating. We appreciate your help!!!”
“Mocha was very happy after her stay. Stephanie sent me lots of pictures of her throughout her to keep me updated on her activities. Mocha is a puppy and requires a lot of attention and patience which Stephanie managed her pretty well. Mocha had lots of exercise and love given by Stephanie. Thank you for taking care of my baby!! You’re so appreciated!”
“Short review is Luke is a fully capable sitter who can handle any situation you may have. And your dog will come back happier. Long version, My dog Tucker her has special needs. He was attacked a couple of years ago and doesn’t do well around aggressive, male dogs or a bunch of dogs. The first time I brought Tucker to Luke’s house, he met his beautiful dog Brolie. He’s very energetic but very well trained. I was a little hesitant, but Broly let Tucker settle in and by time I had come back to pick him up the first day after an hour they were already best friends. It was at this time. I felt comfortable going on my four day trip. Not only did Luke send many pictures of Tucker looking happy and stress-free, but was always there to quickly respond if I had any questions. I also had a situation where I could be back a day earlier or not, and there was never an issue if I needed to extend my stay, Luke would’ve had my back. I can’t say enough good things about what Luke did to help make Tucker feel safe and loved. He realized that Tucker was super food driven and always gave him little treats when he needed it and even toppers for his food when Tucker was jealous of Brolie’s dinner. Not only that but Luca is training to be professional dog trainer so if you need somebody who is very understanding, kind hearted, and absolutely appreciates your love for your pet, Luke is your guy. But just not too many of you because I need him to save a spot for Tucker lol”
“Thomas was wonderful with our dog Buster. Buster stayed with Thomas at his home for 6 nights and throughout the visit Thomas stayed in contact and shared pictures. Buster enjoyed his big backyard and plenty of walks. Would highly recommend Thomas.”
“I felt comfortable in her home and with her other dog when I took a tour! She was quick with all communications and sending pictures. Was flexible with scheduling, if needed. Will rebook with my next trip.”
“I am so grateful for Chap and Kristen! They took amazing care of Maverick and sent so many updates. It was so nice to know he was safe and having fun with them. Thank you!!!”
“We were lucky to have found Blu to look after our dog during a busy holiday season. She was reliable, responded quickly, and was patient when we had to adjust our drop off time. She sent lots of pictures throughout the stay, making it easy for us to enjoy our time away because we knew our pup was well taken care of.”
About: I work from home and am able to give your fur baby plenty of attention. I have a sweet, energetic 10 year old havanese. We're ready for any activity level! No back yard, but my dog and I walk 3-4 miles a day. I also live within walking distance of multiple parks and love to hike. We love some good couch time too. I have experience providing medications, if needed. FYI my home is a townhouse and does have a lot of stairs. I'm currently working from home. I'm able to provide frequent potty breaks and love to take long walks. My schedule is open most weekdays and weekends. My dog hangs out with me most of the day so your dog can have lots of company. He's getting older but still has some puppy energy. I also have a roommate that loves dogs too and is gone a lot.
“We had a wonderful first time experience with Matt. He was very attentive, enthusiastic and communicative throughout the weekend. Blue and a Belle loved spending time with him and were clearly well cared for. Looking forward to their next adventure next weekend :)”
“Daphne is excellent! She has watched my pups a few times now and always gives me so much peace of mind. We were traveling abroad for close to two weeks and there's really no one else I would trust more while being away so long. She communicates so well, send lots of cute pics, and makes sure the dogs are happy and healthy along with her own dog Oliver. I highly recommend her!”
“Oh my goodness if I could give 10 stars I would!!! I was so nervous to leave my puppy for the first time, but I’m a nurse who works night shift. Iuliia could not have been a more perfect host for my baby Phoebe! She played with her, put her to sleep, and sent me sooooo many pictures to put my mind at ease :). I had to stay late at the hospital and she was so understanding. Looking forward to Phoebe’s next stay there!”
“Amanda and her family were amazing with Nugget. He had such a good time, we were afraid he might not want to come back home! Amanda was easy to communicate with she provided many photos with her daily updates. 10/10 would do it again!”
“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!”

If you have a cat, Ari and Sarah are the best around. My goodness they create a kitty paradise. They send so many pictures of our cats having fun that I get jealous that I'm not that good at playing with them. Really makes us feel like we are giving our cats a vacation while we are away! They always come home relaxed and happy too, that's the important part. <3
We had such a great experience with Jamie! She was easy to communicate with and sent frequent updates throughout Mango’s stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Mango seemed so happy and relaxed when we picked him up! We can’t recommend Jamie enough and would happily book with her again!
If there was a 6-Star review, we'd certainly give it to Sara! She was absolutely wonderful with Ripley and sent many pictures and videos that showed she was having a wonderful time with her dog, Mickey. I loved the fact that such a little dog could give 50-pound Ripley a run for her money! Thanks, Rover, for putting us in touch with such a great sitter.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
