About: I live in a very full and very happy home of five rescue doggos and a cat-that-thinks-she-is-a-dog. Needless to say, I juggle many different personalities, needs, and quirks every day. I feel most fulfilled getting to know animals for who they are and building trust at their own pace. I use positive reinforcement and pay close attention to behavioral cues, especially with dogs who are anxious, fearful, or need a little extra patience. I have hands-on experience managing multi-dog dynamics, including situations with food or fear aggression, so I’m very intentional about following each pet’s specific routine and your instructions. Alongside pet care, I’ve spent nearly two decades teaching dance to all ages, which taught me how to corral a group of strong personalities. The skills translate well: patience, awareness, and keeping structure and calm when things get a little unpredictable. At the end of the day, I treat every animal like a whole little person—just one who might occasionally eat something they absolutely shouldn’t. I keep a flexible schedule and can accommodate a range of routines. I book thoughtfully so I can be fully present, reliable, and consistent for your pets. My approach centers on safety, trust, and a calm, low-stress environment. I follow routines closely, read each pet’s cues, and let them warm up at their own pace so they feel secure and understood—not overwhelmed.
“Janelle is wonderful!!! She did a great job caring for and exercising our rambunctious puppy. She followed all of our instructions, took tons of daily pictures for us, socialized with my house-sitting relatives and even celebrated our dog’s 1st birthday for us while we were out of town!!! She went truly went above and beyond and we will be looking forward to using her excellent services in the future…THANKS JANELLE!”


About: I have cared for dozens of dogs, cats and pets over the last 25 years. I bring a calming, grounded energy and an intelligent, thoughtful approach when caring for animals. I am self-employed as an insurance broker and can work from anywhere with cell service/internet. This gives me a ton of flexibility with scheduling and availability. I work closely with pet owners to follow specific care instructions and take their personal preferences very seriously. I understand that pets are part of the family and have their own unique routines, needs and care requirements.

About: I grew up on a farm where we had all kinds of animals including many dogs and cats that I adored. Specifically, we had a couple of German Shepherd dogs that required daily activity. I also went to school and graduated with a degree in Animal Science which focuses on Animal Husbandry. I have experience with basic obedience training along with administering medications to all types of animals. I have a full time job that allows me to work remotely a couple days during the week so I can do drop ins during the day if needed. My weekends are generally available to do overnights. I would be happy to accomodate any schedule needs you might have. I will be able to pick up on and monitor your pets behavior to ensure their safety. I am able to create a structured but friendly environment for those pets that need it.
“Abbi is great! She is very responsive, responsible and attentive. We really appreciate her flexibility and attention to detail. Our dog loves spending time with her and we highly recommend her for your pet needs!”

About: I grew up with a dog and two cats. One of my cats had a UTI and so she was on medicated food. I am very good with elderly cats and dogs and understand the necessity of medications and routines. I currently own two young cats and I will take care of your lovely pet the way you take care of them while you're away! I own a small business (Scent Haven) and so I'm usually busy on Saturday mornings and on Wednesday nights. However, I have a very flexible schedule to watch your lovely cat(s) or dog(s). If there is a date and time I cannot do I am willing to work you on days you need me. I care for my pets safety and well-being as my number 1 priority. I have a feeding schedule and make sure to watch for any abnormal behavior. I grew up with a Pomeranian as well and I can walk your dogs and play with them if they just need a friend!
About: I love animals, I get along great with them and have three animals of my own! I have grown up around animals, and love seeing them smile! I am currently a student at CU, this means I take classes accordingly. I am a part time student who works part time, however, I am trying to make this my part time work! I have a fenced back yard, two cats and and Australian Shepard. We use choke resistant collars and constantly giving them attention. Though because I have an Australian Shepard she is naturally smart!
“My little guy is a tough cookie to crack. He is a bit worried and stand off-ish with new people. Thank you Izzy for being as calm and patient as you were with him! He came around to you ❣️”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for them independently since I was 14 years old. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their dogs while they were away. I recently lost my own dog, which made me realize how much I truly love being around them. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs different levels of attention, exercise, and affection. I enjoy long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, and just simply having a buddy. My goal is always to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and will provide probably too many photos and updates. My schedule is fairly flexible, I work part time as a private caregiver for an elderly couple. I have lots of free time and I do my best to accommodate each dog’s needs. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so caring for dogs fits naturally into my routine. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your dog gets the attention and care they deserve. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a family member, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I will carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding routines, feeding, medications, exercise, and house rules.
About: I am a responsible college student who loves all kinds of dogs. I have grown up with dogs my entire life and have experience with large breed puppies to small senior dogs. I'm also an athlete, so I can be an especially good fit for energetic and strong dogs. I have also spent time volunteering at the humane society. I am currently home for the summer so my schedule is very flexible. My mornings are generally busier, but I can adapt to your needs on most days. The safety and happiness of your pet is my first priority, so I prefer to stick to familiar areas and will pay close attention to your pet's cues. If your dog enjoys exercise or activities, I am also able to go on runs, play, or explore new places with them.
About: Welcome to our chaotic but always exciting zoo! My husband Jeremy and I love animals, and always had them growing up. We have had dogs, cats, ferrets, hamsters, fish and taken care of many others. Currently we have two dogs: Booker and Ahri, three cats: Macaroni, Tinkerbell, and Toulouse, and two ferrets: Baby & Luna. I have experience fostering young kittens for the ASPCA, and we both have experience administering oral and injectable medications. Two of our pets are special needs, so we understand the importance of timely administering meds! We would love to care for your pets while you're away ✨🖤 Jeremy works remotely, and is available on weekday afternoons/evenings and weekends. Sierra works partially remote, and is available weekday mornings/early afternoons and weekends. We spend our evenings unwinding with our furry friends: playing, walking, going to the dog park. We would love to add your friend into our rotation and help them relax while you're away! We currently live in a two story duplex with a private fenced yard. We are open to do doggy day care/boarding, but we would need to discuss how well your pups do around cats and other dogs! We can easily crate your pup, or keep them separated if requested. We are both tidy and considerate people who will respect your living space and your animal companions. We know the importance of quality pet care, and would love to help provide that service to others!
About: As I photographer, you will get lots of cute pics of your furry friend while in my care. My calm steady energy will set you and your pet at ease. I also, recognize that every pet is unique and I like to adapt my care of them to their specific needs. Whether that be lots of exercise or lots of cuddles. I customize my care to what you and your pet communicate they need. I am currently self employed as a photographer, so I create my own schedule. This helps me be flexible to you and your pets needs. I’m a warm and inviting human who loves animals, and animals love me. I have a grounding energy that helps put animals at ease. Everyone is safe and supported while in my care.
About: I love dogs so much that I went to school to study them! I have my Associate of Applied Science in Veterinary Technology. I have worked at specialty and emergency animal hospitals as a veterinary technician, which has given me valuable hands-on experience working with dogs with a variety of medical conditions (i.e. diabetes, post-op TPLO/orthopedic surgery, allergic dermatitis). You can trust me to adjust my care to meet the health and happiness needs of each individual animal. Exercising and/or caring for your dog is incredibly important. I also am a fit outdoor exercise enthusiast and can keep up various levels of pace intensity depending on the needs of your dog. I will put safety and health first always, followed by genuine love and attention!
About: I’ve grown up with many animals over the years, including cats, dogs, reptiles, horses, and chickens, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Over the years, I’ve also helped friends, family, and neighbors with pet sitting—providing everything from daily walks and feedings to overnight care and companionship. These experiences have helped me develop a strong sense of responsibility, attention to detail, and a genuine love for all kinds of pets. My schedule is flexible, and I’m available for pet sitting most of the time, with occasional exceptions when I have prior commitments. I’m hoping to incorporate a regular dog walking schedule as well. I’m happy to stay at your home while pet sitting, and I always ensure a quiet, respectful, and clean environment. I’ll do whatever makes your dog or cat feel most comfortable, respecting their routines and needs.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Lyons. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
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 walker.
