About: I’m dependable, detail oriented, and take pet care seriously. I show up on time, follow instructions carefully, and give regular updates so you never have to worry. I have a flexible routine that allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the day, not just quick visits. I’m able to adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s specific needs and routine. I’m mindful of safety, respectful of your home, and intentional about creating a calm, clean environment where your pets can feel relaxed and owners can feel secure.
About: Hello! My name is Mikayla, and I am a freelance dancer and pointe shoe fitting specialist. In my free time, I would love to come to your pets to provide them adequate care and love throughout the day. Over the last decade, I have provided responsible care for my family's cat and two dogs as well as friends, relatives, roommates, and clients. This includes overnight care, playtime, walks, visiting the dog park, mealtime, oral medication, and more! One of my dogs, Toby, I helped to train as a puppy. I have lots of experience working with anxious pups, finding soothing solutions and providing love and compassion, while meeting their needs. My time spent with your pet would be on top of my current work. I am willing to work with you to accommodate your pet’s needs! I will always come to you to take care of your pet. On top of the information we discuss regarding your pets environment and habits, I am very attentive to the environment that I am in and double check that what I am doing for the animal and for myself is a safe choice. I am open and flexible, and I try to get to know each pets’ unique personality to understand how they will behave in certain situations.
“Absolutely will have Matt watch our pets again!! He was super flexible- when I asked him last minute to come an hour and a half early, he made it work. My dog can be very anxious around men, he usually doesn’t accept head pets or like to play around them. My dog had no issues playing and accepting head scratches from Matt! Pets love him!!”
“Christopher was an excellent sitter for my cat Chewie! It was wonderful how close we live to each other and I was very happy to let Christopher work from my home when he wanted to so Chewie got more “people time”. When I came home everything was in excellent order and clean! Chewie was also very happy ❤️❤️”
“Kristen is always wonderful with Bindi! Bindi has a lot of issues, and Kristen has patiently helped her through. We trust her completely, and she’s also been extremely flexible with scheduling. I couldn’t recommend her more.”
“Probably the best cat sitter we’ve ever had, she took such good care of them and you can really tell. They were so much calmer than they normally are when we come back from vacation! Took so many pictures/videos too which we really appreciated”
“Otelia was such a great Rover! I had such an easy experience. She is very communicative which helped alleviate any anxiety I felt about leaving my kitty. She even left me a handwritten note at the end!”
About: My name is Margo, but you can also call me Margaret. I’ve taken care of many dogs and other pets in Denver and now in the Boulder area. I have pets of my own and grew up with animals, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. I love spending time with animals at home and exploring the outdoors with them. I work from home most days with a flexible schedule, so I can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I take daily walks, attend dog meetups, and enjoy an active lifestyle on weekends. I offer both boarding in my home and house sitting in your home. For boarding, your dog has access to my fenced yard and nearby dog parks. For house sitting, I spend most of my time at your home and follow your pet’s normal routine while giving them plenty of attention and companionship.
About: I dog sat for years before I got my first pup, now have two playful spaniels who love playmates! I do agility and sent work training with my dogs, happy to include yours in our games as well! I also love to get to go on hikes & runs with my dogs, as well as those that I pet sit for! I work full time from home every day but Wednesdays, my dogs usually get a long walk morning and evening, as well as playtime during lunch - they usually nap while I'm working in my home office! My younger dog also comes on runs with me a few times per week! I have a house with a dog door and fenced in yard, as well as two quite playful spaniels. Mine love fetch, so there's plenty of toys around to toss! I do crate them if I have to run out of the house, they seem to be most relaxed in the crate when I'm gone. I do keep a furbo camera on them when I'm out so I can check in on them remotely.
About: Hello! We're Shalee and Gabriel, a nomad couple who just bought a camper and are traveling around the country. We are skydivers so we typically will be staying near drop zones in different states. We're currently in Longmont Colorado I've been taking care of dogs for around 14 years. I work from home and my husband works part time so there is always someone home. I have one dog of my own, an Aussie named Liebe who is 11 years old. We're so excited to meet you and your pups! I work from home so I'm able to provide lots of attention and day time walks. I'm also available to watch your pet overnight if needed. I can care for your pup in my own home or yours. We can make a plan depending on your pet. Some prefer to just chill and others more active.
About: I have 10 years experience working with dogs. I tailor my care to your pet's specific needs and likes, creating an environment that feels safe and comfortable while you are away. I am available Monday through Friday and weekends upon request. I live in the West Gunbarrel area and serve Gunbarrel and Boulder. I love working with Neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ folxs. I pay close attention when leashing dogs for walks, making sure they are comfortable before going out with them. I have treats on hand and provide structured playtime.
About: I was Humane Society volunteer, even if briefly. I've also been a pet owner for 15 years, with one dog named DuDu, who was a Black Labrador I am available practically always, with the primary exception being Wednesday nights, since I have guitar lessons that day. But other than that, I am indeed available, since even my volunteering work is irregular and voluntary I have a fenced yard or have the dog kept on a leash. I make sure the environment is hazard free, and keep the dog away from other animals.
About: I volunteered at the humane society for 2 years and regularly house sit for a family with a farm. I enjoy caring for animals, especially dogs! ***DAY OCCUPATION WORK SCHEDULE 7:45am-4:15pm M-F*** Beginning July 2025, I only service the areas of Boulder, Niwot, Gunbarrel and Hygiene. I am available for overnights and weekends! Midday check-ins are available for North Boulder clients. If not in North Boulder, booking with me is reasonable if dogs have outdoor access throughout the day. I treat other people’s pets with the utmost care that I treat my own. Dogs will get at least 1 walk per day with playtime, also will bathe if needed. Close attention will be paid to food, watering and medication needs as well.
About: Hi! My name is Marion. I have always loved dogs, and have one lovely pup of my own, Summit. She is the tan dog in the photos. She is 7 years old, and very dog friendly. She loves to play, but knows boundaries and is happy to cuddle on the couch as well. I have a very large, high-fenced yard that is great for the dogs, and I also walk my dogs 2x daily and take them to the dog park or open space 1-2x per week. I am a runner, so I could gladly run with your dog if you would like. Dogs of all sizes are welcome in my home! I grew up with Great Danes and am very comfortable around big dogs, and my house is very open so there is a lot of room. I look forward to meeting you and your doggos! I am experience with senior and medical pets as well and am comfortable caring for your medically needing fur babies. Behavioral issues or nervous dogs don’t scare me, I have fostered 50+ dogs over the years and am happy to be accommodating. I work from home 90% of the time and am only gone from the home for 2-4 hours at a time to visit my clients. I have a furbo in my home to check in on dogs when I am not at home, and can make my schedule work for someone needing 24/7 observation as long as I have notice. I have multiple spaces in my home if our dogs need to be separated as well.
About: I’ve been taking care of other people’s pets since I was 15, and working on Rover for about a year and a half. I know how important our fur families are and would love to be there to support your dog(s) and/or cat(s) while you are away. I have experience with multiple breeds of dogs, such as Pit Bulls, Greyhounds, German Shepherds, Shih Tzus, Beagles, Golden-Doodles, Schnauzers, Chihuahuas and all sorts of mixed-breeds. All ages welcome, as I have experience working with dogs from ~3 months to 16 years old. Additionally, I have experience working with dogs and cats with disabilities and special needs, such as blindness, deafness, heart murmurs, joint issues, hip dysplasia, and thyroid conditions. I’m experienced in providing oral medication, eye drops, and vitamins/supplements. I am highly attuned to the ways pets express their feelings of joy, love, and fear. I use this knowledge to support my care for them and am responsive to the ways they communicate their comfort levels. My main goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for your pets to thrive while you are away. I care for the animals I sit for as if they were mine! I know the pet parent’s experience is just as important and send pictures, videos, and detailed updates daily to ensure they know their families are getting amazing care while they’re away. I work from home and can easily transition my workstation to any place necessary. Most of my plans I have are flexible and local. I love going on walks and spending time at home reading/crafting. I update my calendar regularly on Rover to ensure it’s correct for ease of use. I am happy to provide care in client’s homes and keep it clean as if it were my own place. The families I work with often comment I left their homes cleaner than when they left. I’m happy to help water plants, grab mail, take out the trash, bring in packages, and anything else that helps take care of your home while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and can easily keep your fur babies on their feeding, walking, and bathroom schedules.
About: I have been in the dog world for most of my life. I grew up with a champion English cocker spaniel and had a litter of puppies. I had to bathe and take care of the puppies as well as the dogs. I have been a dog groomer since 2010. I have worked at petco and have owned my own dog grooming business for since 2017. I hope to meet some cute dogs and help out some people who can’t be with the dogs during the day or while on vacation. If you need your dog to be groomed before you return then we can arrange that as well. I have a business but would like to help out when possible. I live in gunbarrel near boulder and can be made available if agreed upon. I live in a condo but we have amble trails to take long walks. If I come to your home I can do whatever is helpful within reason.
“Sarah is amazing with our boys!! They gather around her and stay by her side during every visit and her photos are amazing. She cleaned up little cat messes even though we said not to worry about it and noticed the neighbors putting out the trash so asked if we needed the same. She is attentive, kind, and the best sitter we’ve ever had. The cats were so happy when we got home!! Thank you, Sarah!”
“Mary was so helpful with dropping in 2x a day to take care of our two cats. It was great to see the check in photos. We appreciated the quick communication when one of our cats potentially had an issue. We would be happy to ask Mary to pet sit again!”
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Niwot is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Niwot
Sue was terrific! She handled our senior dog's medication regimen very well and took him for walks everyday. We never once worried about him while we were gone. Appreciated the daily photos and updates about his finicky eating habits. If we go out of town again, Sue is definitely at the top of our dog sitter list ! Thanks Sue !!!
Joanie was just wonderful with our dog, Arlow. She was attentive and responsible and really earned both Arlows and our trust. She is so sweet and reliable and we can’t wait to have her back as our sitter! I really felt like i could sit back and enjoy our vacation knowing Joanie was taking care of our puppers. 🖤 10/10
My boys have unique medication needs. Sing was so detail oriented and took notes of everything. I felt so confident knowing she'd take great care of them. Normally I'm nervous when I leave my boys but not this time. She took such great care of them and the boys adore her. I think she's the best sitter I ever had. You can trust your dogs to her, they will be in the most excellent hands
Anna is Stella’s new best friend!!! Anna is very sweet and flexible for our needs which was extremely reassuring while we were traveling. The weather was too cold for walks so she just came and hung out with Stella, gave her the supplements she needs, and was just there for Stella to do whatever Stella wanted to do, which was most likely play fetch inside or snuggle. We’ve already book Anna for our next trip out of town!!!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Niwot choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
