“Christine was fantastic and Lulu had a great time playing with Hondo! Lulu is a very anxious dog—Christine was understanding of her needs and Lulu warmed to her within just this first daycare visit. I’ll definitely be booking again and grateful to have another spot where I know Lu will be happy and wonderfully cared for.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since childhood, starting with training and walking my first dog, which helped me develop patience, consistency, and a strong understanding of trust. I later co-parented a high-needs dog, gaining experience with behavior management, individual care needs, and medication administration. Throughout my life, friends and neighbors have relied on me to care for their animals, and I pride myself on being dependable, calm, and attentive. I also live an active lifestyle and would love to bring your dog along on hikes or outdoor adventures if that’s something they enjoy. I currently work part time in a hybrid role, and I love to fill some of my time caring for pups! I can’t wait to find out how I can support. My clean and spacious home is the perfect landing space for your pup between walks, potty breaks, rides around town, higher intensity hikes, or whatever activities your dog enjoys the most. Your dog will have the freedom to roam where they please, sit with me on the couch, or insist upon another walk. I pride myself on my attention to detail and risk management when it comes to any environment your dog and I are sharing, while optimizing fun and enrichment. Conveniently located next to a trail and several parks, we will have no shortage of excellent places to jaunt and play!
“Sasha is wonderful! We're so happy to have found her. She is very thoughtful and caring with our dogs and she limits the number she cares for so we always know our dogs are in a safe place with plenty of supervision. Highly recommend her!”
“Jacky was AMAZING with Mecum, I swear he had the best night of his life. She was super attentive to his needs and brought him for many fun activities. Best Rover person I’ve ever met!!! I’m so grateful I met her and can’t wait for future trips for her to hang out with him! :) he moved right in and loved it. Thank you, Jacky! She also sent me frequent updates throughout the night and sent pictures/ videos. You’re the best, Jacky!!!!”
“Kyleigh has been so good with our anxious pup Kermit. She spent time getting to know him during a meet and greet and when we brought him back for day care a couple weeks later he pulled me to the door because he was so excited to be there. Kyleigh has been very flexible and laid back in the best way and I can tell that Kermit feels safe around her— and her boyfriend Chris, which is a big deal because Kermit does not typically do well around men. Thanks Kyleigh!”
“Ryan and Lorien are AMAZING! Super thorough updates with lots of pictures of Fleet multiple times a day, and incredibly detailed and helpful with his schedule and routine. House is set up perfect for watching a doggo and giving each animal their own space. Absolutely blown out of the water, I’ve never been so pleased with a sitter. They made a difficult weekend stress-free because I knew my boy was in good hands.”
“Our dog Indy is fairly timid and anxious, and Alix took wonderful care of him while we were in town for an event. She is a great communicator, and it was clear that Indy was very relaxed throughout the day with Alix. She got him to come out of his shell, and when we picked him up we could see that he had a great time. We highly recommend Alix!”
About: I’ve had animal family members for most of my life. I want to love on your babies and keep them feeling safe, loved and secure in your absence. I can care for puppies to older dogs but mostly prefer potty trained. However, if you’re in the middle of teaching, just give us a run down of your training methods and we’ll be happy to continue while you’re away. My philosophy is to give your pet everything he/she needs and to honor each individual personality. I want your fur- babies to be excited to see you when you return but also sad to go because they loved their time with me! I work full time from home 5 days a week. I do travel out of town often but my availability is always up to date. We always have our pets on leash when not in our fenced in back yard. There’ll be no other animals as we can only babysit one pet at a time. Lots of individualized attention so if anything is wrong, I’ll catch it very quickly. Also, when I am scheduled to have a guest pet staying with us, I’ll minimize my time away from home.
“Olivia was so accommodating with my dog. He is usually anxious with leaving me but he was happy to be there when we dropped him off. Will definitely use them again in the future”
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.
“Joanne was absolutely wonderful with Jake! She sent SO many updates and photos which eased my worrying heart. She did all his favorite activities and he was such a happy boy when we picked him up. 15/10 would go back.”
“Georgia successfully tired out our energetic, border collie puppy Nancy! She was communicative throughout the day and took Nancy to play in the creek. Thank you!!”
“Jessica took great care of my puppy!!! She made sure he was comfortable with the other dogs, took him on walks, and gave him lots of love while he was there. Definitely recommend booking with her; your dog will be well taken care of!”
“Linnea was 11/10 when caring for piper. I was super nervous at first when I moved here not knowing anyone or anyone that knew piper. Linnea eased those emotions quickly. She sends updates through out the day and pictures! Piper and Ellie became the best of friends, if you are looking for someone to care for your dog while out of town or just at work go to Linnea! She will treat and love your dog like her own!”
“My dog has a little separation anxiety, and this was her first time staying with Sally, but Sally and her dog Leni were able to sooth her and she seemed to settle in after a few hours. The dogs played for hours, and mine went to sleep right when we got home -- always a good sign! Sally was very accommodating to a changing schedule, and was a delight to work with. A great experience overall.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Niwot
Christine is a wonderful, thoughtful human and a loving, professional dog person! My two huskies loved their day with her and sweet Hondo. They enjoyed their walk (not always an easy feat but no problem for Christine), the beautiful backyard, and all the understanding and love they received. My one husky has extreme separation anxiety and had absolutely no desire to leave. That says it all!
Lauren was wonderful with our dogs! Was very easy to communicate with, has lots of experience, and was able to manage all of our dogs’ unique requirements based on a couple of medical conditions. We would highly recommend her and will be working with her frequently in the future!

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 Niwot 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 3,971 sitters in Niwot, 84% 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.
