About: I’ve had pets my entire life, worked as a vet tech and am reliable. Drug free no criminal background. I am great with all pets and will send you plenty of updates and pics. I’m working on converting my van right now so my schedule is pretty open. I’m happy to walk on your favorite walking routes if you leave me a map, or to just hang out with your pets and give attention. My schedule is pretty open. I typically walk my dog twice a day. Just let me know what you need and we’ll see if we can make it work! I will come to you and take care of your pets where they are most comfortable! I love taking them on walks and giving them love.
“Ryan was wonderful with our 1 year old dog. He was attentive, easy to communicate with, and made our dog feel right at home. Moreover, he would send us pictures and videos throughout the day to let us know that our dog was doing well in his new surroundings. Lastly, he has a very sweet dog that our dog loved and seemed to bond with almost instantly. Would definitely book with Ryan again!”
About: I've been caring for dogs my entire life and bring a calm, attentive and intuitive approach to every dog i welcome into my home. I grew up caring for dogs and have owned both Golden Retrievers and a long-haired Dachshund, giving experience with a wide range of temperaments-from energetic and playful to gentle and sensitive. I provide a structured, safe and loving environment where dogs can feel at ease while maintaining their normal routines. I'm highly attentive to each dogs individual needs, whether it's exercise, companionship or simply a calm space to relax. Having hosted many dogs in my home and being a former dog owner looking for care over the years, I understand how important it is for both pets and owners to feel confident and comfortable. My 9-year-old son Bobby is kind, respectful and experienced with dogs adding to the warm, family style environment your dog will be a part of. Nestled in Red Cliff, our home offers a true mountain escape- endless fresh air, trails, a dogs dream playground I currently have full availability, I'm home throughout the day to provide loving, attentive care, regular walks, playtime and calm, consistent routine for every dog. Our home features a partially fenced yard, a peaceful low flow creek on the property and easy access to Red Cliffs dog friendly trails for leashed or unleashed adventures in the backcountry.
About: I have always had a love for animals. I have had dogs always growing up and have taken care of lots of different animals. I have a 3 old aussie who has lots of energy and loves to play! I currently work part time serving in a restaurant, so my schedule is pretty flexible and willing to be moved around for pet care needs! I live right by a very nice trail that allows dogs to be off leash. I have a 3 old aussie at home who loves to play and for long walks and hikes.
“Penelope was great looking after out dogs for the day while we were out on the mountains; she asked about how our dogs reacted to things to best look after them and she looked after them like they were her own. I'd happily have Penelope look after our dogs in the future!”
“Taylor was the perfect sitter! She was so easy to communicate with. We will definitely use her again when we are back in town. She made everything so easy and smooth. Highly recommend!”
“Christian was such a great communicator! He was so helpful for us when we needed a sitter last minute. He took our dog for a 3 mile walk when we were gone and she had such a great day. Would highly recommend!”
About: I have a super senior 17 year old min pin mix who is spoiled and in perfect health; something I'm very proud of! Growing up I had cats and reptiles and am comfortable with taking care of all four legged or no legged animals ! I am the go to person for pet advice and always pet sit for my friends and family. I am flexible with scheduling with enough notice! I split my time between Vail and Denver, and offer my services both places. My place in the mountains has a small fenced yard. With ample notice I can accommodate your busy schedule. My apartment is pet proof, child free, and I have linoleum floors and a couple of rugs. I own a carpet shampooer and a steam cleaner so nothing phases me and I keep everything sanitary. Fur babies are allowed everywhere and I mainly clean with green and safe products. I have a crate and can crate your pet if needed. I am also comfortable with medication administration and know all the emergency vet hospitals near by. I believe it's important to send updates and pictures, because to me, pets are just as important as human children.

About: I have a lifelong love for animals and hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats at every stage of life. I’ve owned two dogs, both rescues that I fostered and then adopted. One was a German Shepherd mix who lived a full, happy life to the age of 12, and the other is a mixed-breed terrier who is still thriving with me at nearly 9 years old. My experience includes caring for puppies and kittens, as well as senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I’m also comfortable supporting animals with medical needs, including managing conditions like diabetes. I understand how important it is to provide not just basic care, but also love, consistency, and a calm, attentive presence. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I’m able to maintain flexible scheduling, regular check-ins, and plenty of companionship for pets who prefer not to be alone for long periods. I live just a couple of hundred yards from a hiking trail, so daily walks and outdoor time are a natural part of my routine. With my own small terrier, I’m already out walking and hiking regularly, and I love including other dogs in those adventures when appropriate. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. While I do have an unfenced yard, I will always be present and closely supervise any outdoor time. Off-leash potty breaks will only be done with your permission and for pets who are comfortable and reliable in that setting. For added safety, all walks beyond the yard, whether around the neighborhood or on nearby hiking trails will always be done on leash unless permissions provided for off-leash exercise by owner. I stay attentive, aware of surroundings, and committed to keeping your pet secure, comfortable, and well cared for at all times.

About: Our furry friends give us so much joy, it’s my goal to ensure they are well cared for and loved. I have years of experience with dogs and cats in all stages of life.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Minturn
Kristen was a lifesaver for the few days I needed her to watch my VERY active 14 month old Golden Retriever. If she can watch my pup, take her on hikes (the pup is really good on and off leash), and constant cuddles. Kristen is terrific at communicating with you. She will also send you pictures if you would like to see. I will DEFINITELY use Kristen again and give her FIVE STARS!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Minturn commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 127 sitters in Minturn, 89% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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 sitter.
