“Julia is an absolute gem!! 💎 She greeted Kaya at her door and before I even had her bag out, she’d found Kaya’s favorite spot to be petted! I felt so comfortable knowing my girl was with a wonderful pet sitter, it helped make my weekend that much better. The communication was great - the photos and video of her enjoying her best life with Julia’s dog 🐶 and out walking made me smile and know I made the best decision for her. Highly recommend!!”
“Delane is fabulous. It was our puppies first time away from us and in another person's care for more than a day and they came back to us in great shape, no trauma, and well taken care. Thanks Delane.”

“My dog Poppy had an amazing time in her week long stay with Alejandra and Patrick. They kept me updated throughout her entire stay and made me feel confident Poppy was well taken care of. She came back home even better socialized and well-behaved after her time with them and I would highly recommend!”
“Ryan and Lorien were the best sitters we’ve found in the nine years we’ve had Dany! We were so grateful for the daily updates and felt Dany was well taken care of. Ryan goes above and beyond to make sure you’re on the same page about care and is detail oriented. We would 10/10 recommend & hope to book again in the future!”
“My dog Yodi had excellent care and company with Emily and her dog, communication about aspects of Yodi's care prior to the stay were easy, and I received daily updates with photos, which put me at ease. Also I was able to make the booking at a very short notice, we did a quick meet and greet prior to confirming the booking, so everything was great and went smoothly, I am grateful!”

“My dog spent a wonderful weekend with Christine and her calm and sweet-natured pup. Christine did a wonderful job getting her exercised and reported with regular updates on how she was doing with pics included. When I picked my dog up on Sunday, she was happy, well fed and ready to come home. I'd recommend Christine to anyone for a caring and communicative dogsitter.”
“This was Brinkley’s 2nd stay with Kyle and Desiree. It went great and Brinkley came home super tired from lots of walks and loving! We received great daily updates, and our interactions showed that they provided very attentive care towards his needs. This is a very kind family, and the communication could not be easier. Brinkley looks forward to another stay!!”
“Irina was wonderful! Communication was excellent, she was flexible on schedules, and Otto looked so happy in all of the pictures she sent! We will definitely be booking with her again in the future, our little guy was very well taken care of.”
About: I am fully insured through Pet Care Insurance for added protection to your home & pets while I am on duty! Hi there! Welcome to my page. With over seven years of professional pet‑sitting experience, I offer calm, reliable, detail‑oriented care for pets of all temperaments and needs. My background in shelter environments means that I am comfortable with shy animals, medical routines, and behavior‑sensitive pets. Animals have been part of my life since childhood, so caring for cats, dogs, small animals, reptiles, and even the occasional farm animal feels natural and intuitive. I am a pet sitter that values communication, safety, and consistency. My goal is always to make your time away feel stress‑free and predictable. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! My Care Standards: -All communication must stay on Rover for everyone’s safety and clarity. Rover messaging will be the best way to get a hold of me. -Cameras must be disclosed before booking. For privacy, I unplug indoor cameras during house‑sitting and plug them back in when I leave (if requested). -Full instructions, updated vet info, and emergency contacts must be provided. I follow what’s written; if something isn’t listed, I can’t guarantee it. -Please ensure adequate cleaning supplies and pet supplies are available. -Time changes must be submitted and approved through Rover. I strictly follow the times that are listed on Rover at the time of booking. I understand travel delays happen, and I am always willing to be flexible where I can. -Potty breaks are provided every 4–8 hours, depending on the day’s schedule. -I don’t offer constant care unless pre‑approved; constant‑care requests are billed hourly at $20 per hour. -Updates are sent 1–2 times per day, with more frequent communication if a situation calls for it. -Plant care is available for a fee of $20. I'm not a plant expert, so please understand that I cannot guarantee the status of your plants upon your return, but I promise your pets will be happy and healthy when you come home! -Homes must be clean and prepared before overnight stays. I cannot stay overnight in homes that are unsafe or not properly prepared/cleaned for me. -My cancellation policy is 7 days. By booking with me, you agree to these standards. Thank you for helping me provide consistent, high‑quality care. I am a full-time pet sitter. I frequently has to step out during the day. I can provide potty breaks every 4-8 hours. The earlier you request services, the easier it is for me to structure my days around your pets. My schedule is flexible; I just ask that you communicate with me about what you're looking for! I am also always happy to take your pets with me when I am on the go, so if you are interested, just let me know! My partner comes around from time to time as he travels for work, and we don't get to see each other regularly. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I will address this during our meet and greet as well! Please also know your spot is not promised with me until the booking has been paid for in full. I am comfortable supporting senior pets, puppies, and animals with special needs. My skills include safe and confident dog handling, as well as administering medications and injections with care and precision. Nothing is impossible when it comes to your pets medical needs.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
96% of sitters in Lyons can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Lyons 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 Lyons.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lyons. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Lyons 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
