“I was worried because our Gunnar is still in his puppy phase. He received outstanding care and came home tired every night. When I need doggie daycare again, I will certainly choose Wes and Kimberly. Thank you for taking such good care of our boy!”
“I really appreciate having Lindsey as a sitter! I have an older dog who would get anxious to the point of physical exhaustion at other dog sitters and commercial boarding places. It got to the point where one time I went to pick her up and she literally could not walk. Lindsey has senior dog experience and is home most of the time, which gives me confidence that my dog will have someone around to keep her company and won't get too anxious or worried. She's also been helpful in working with me on getting my dog acclimated to her house and easing her into the new environment. I'm very thankful for having an experienced and caring sitter to look after my dog!”
“Fantastic experience. This is Floyd’s 3rd Rover. We attended CFD and left Floyd for the day. Monika was super helpful and friendly. Sent pictures throughout the day. I have no reservations with returning.”
About: The beautiful atmosphere here at Ranch Itty Bitty provides lots of loving care, safety and walks on quiet country roads. All visitors love it here. I am nearly 100% retired and enjoy spending time with loving animals while their human family spends time away. I work hard to make sure their time is as precious as yours and mine. Since my two sweet pups traveled over the rainbow bridge, I have found joy in caring for pups of other families. While I miss my own, I adore the company of dogs and have found this experience absolutely perfect for my life. I have a big fenced yard if you need boarding services. I am extremely caring, respectful and have oodles of references to let you know you are hiring the best of care for your furry loved ones.
About: We can transport your furry friend(s) to my home and back to yours from 8:30a to 6:30p. I’ve owned at least one dog since I was 10 and loved everyone that has came into my life. From walking, to playing, to bathing (most of the time both of us by the end of it lol) it was a joy. I do have experience caring for senior dogs and puppies. I can administer oral medication. Currently I am staying at home full time as I just had my baby at the end of October ‘25. Have occasional doctors appointments during the week or random errands. There will be very limited time pups are left unattended. My husband also helps with the dogs and can sometimes take them to the dog park in Wellington or Ault. I have a new baby as of the end of October and have 2 female dogs in the home, one is 2.5 and the other is 13, the older one sticks to herself mostly but sometimes regulates the puppies and tells them to slow it down. Both are very well socialized and do not have any issues with other dogs. We can set up a time to do a meet and greet or work through a plan of separation (if necessary!! Normally it is not) which I have practiced and am set up for. I have my backyard spilt into 2 runs as well as an isolation pen. This is to help with any entrance excitement. If a dog is really pushy at the gate they’ll be put into a different section of fencing so they don’t push out. We have plenty of toys here, and ask that bones are not brought with to prevent any issues.
About: Your dog or cat will be treated like family. We have a very active lifestyle with lots of hikes and playing at the lake. We live by a fun dog park as well as off-leash areas. Cat's will get their own personal suite (away from my dog). We have a nice cat tree in the sun and plenty of cat toys. My dog loves to run and play but is very respectful if its more of a lazy day. Your pet will get plenty of exercise and love. Our yard is fenced and we live near a few nice parks. If you need me to come to your home be sure I will give your pet lots of attention. I can help with feeding and even medication for your pet. I work from home and have many hours a day to devote to walking or playing with your pet. I take my own dog (Watson0 for two long walks a day. I have a fenced yard and a dog who loves to play and gets along with other dogs. We love the dog park and hiking in Vedauvoo as well as running at horse creek off leach area
“Rebekah was incredible with my pup who can be kind of shy in new environments and situations. She was patient and kind and gave my pup lots of love and exercise and she came home tired and happy at the end of the day. It’s clear she had a lot of experience with dogs, which as a nervous dog mom, put me at ease knowing she was in a nurturing environment while I was at work. I will definitely book with her again!”
About: Some unique dog care facts about me: -I have owned and loved 5 dogs their full lifespans throughout my 30 years of life -I can work well with other animals being in your home, because I grew up on a ranch with chickens, cats, goats, ducks, etc. -I can handle disputes between dogs, and can love on rescued/ nervous doggos -I will not love on a puppy any more than I love on an old dog -My commitment to your pet's safety is 100% -I have all the applicable skills when it comes to being aware of the dog's personal needs and how they might vary from other dogs -I don't just do the basics-- I ensure that the dogs receive love and not JUST that they have the essentials! I am actively booking services via Rover in addition to other scheduled clients. Currently, I am available for dog walking, drop in visits for both dogs and cats, and overnight stays in your home in Northern CO/ the Front Range. I provide the utmost care to your pups or kitties. Please refer to my calendar to book services and see when I am available 😊 PLEASE NOTE: **** I have a policy that new clients must request my services within 5 days’ advanced notice prior to drop- in visits, walks, or overnight sitting. If this cannot be done, it is very likely that I may instead request a one- time add- on adjustment/ fee to the booking, especially if the request is made: - In less than 24 hours’ notice and/ OR - On a Holiday PLEASE respect this policy of mine & know that I am a small business owner who cares for animals full- time. I do my best to fulfill each request that comes my way, unless I otherwise am already booked at the same time. I do not turn anyone away and ask that my time, care & love for your fur babies is respected! Thanks :) **** I always ensure that your pets are in either a fenced in yard, or on leash while walked out in the neighborhood. I have experience with neurotic, fearful pups who need some extra lovin’, and may take their sweet time to get to know me and/ or need to be muzzled to go on a walk. I have cared for 8 week old puppies, and 19.5 year old kitties and elderly dogs. My love and respect for animals is always at the forefront of the time I spend in your home with your furry family members!
About: I have been professionally pet sitting and taking care of animals for 5 years. I have worked as a vet tech for 7 years As well as a kennel tech for 1 year. I have experience with all ages from newborn puppies to elderly dogs, as well as all different breeds. From teacup yorkies, to Irish wolf hounds. I currently have all the time in the world to care for my beloved furry friends. I love exercise, lake days, dog parks, etc. I would love to help you provide a fun summer for your pets. Kitties also get the lazy days, cuddle in at home, cat toys to occupy, and a catio out my back door for some nice fresh air. I can provide plenty of types of care you require. Kitty box cleans, dog waste cleanup, I’ve taken three cpr classes focusing on dogs, I know how to administer many medications.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. Always loved all animals but dogs really are my favorite. I’ve had them as pets and cared for them for others for decades. When I used to deliver pizzas people always commented how their dogs didn’t usually like men or people or any number of other reasons but they were surprised how much their dog seemed to like me. Eventually I may own a doggy day care, and would love to actually start a rescue for animals. I’m currently pretty flexible. I wax recently disabled and was unemployed while waiting for surgery. Now no longer disabled but have plenty of flexibility to cover many needs your furry family member may have. I recently lost a lot of weight by just walking so I’d love to continue to get my steps in with your dogs. Dogs would be welcome to come to my house where I do have two elderly big boys of my own. They generally are froendly but if your dog is high energy it may not be a good fit. My oldest one is literally the guy to tell hyper dogs to get off his lawn
“Andrew has cared for our 1 year old Great Dane twice now and she always comes back happy and tired! He keeps us well updated with how she is doing and she is obviously well loved and cared for when she gets to visit. We will be continuing to use Andrew in the future and can’t speak more highly to his care and compassion for Millie and animals in general.”
“Laurel did a fantastic job caring for my girls. She kept me updated throughout the stay and sent some great pics and videos. Thanks for taking such good care of my girls, Laurel!”
“Thank you Katie for watching Judge in short notice, so I could complete job interviews, while traveling from out of town. You saved the day ! I can tell Judge had a great day. He is calm and happy?????aWe rate you 5 puppies !!!”
“Took such great care of my dog! The whole family is so sweet and I could tell my dog was well cared for and tired when I picked him up. Communicates great and sent me pics/updates without needing to ask. Highly recommend, nothing beats feeling like your pet is off having a good time with a good family”

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 Norfolk 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 372 sitters in Norfolk, 86% 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.
