“Renata took great care of Scout and Radley! They clearly enjoyed their stay, and it was obvious they were in the hands of a true dog person. She did an excellent job with their food mix and Scout's medications. We appreciated the great care and would happily book with her again.”

About: I’ve spent years caring for pets of all ages and personalities—from gentle senior cats to rowdy, playful pups. My background in a pet store taught me animal behavior, nutrition, and how to make every pet feel safe and happy. I’m skilled at giving medications, handling high-energy pets, and offering extra TLC to seniors. With me, your furry friend will get expert care, plenty of love, and endless tail wags! Pet care is part of my everyday life—I share my home with three of my own furry companions, so love, playtime, and feeding schedules are already built into my routine. I’m used to early morning walks, regular grooming, cuddle breaks, and keeping a close eye on health and behavior. Caring for pets isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s simply part of who I am.🐾💕 I make safety my first priority, keeping pets happy and secure. I care for each pet as if they are my own. All animals deserve kindness, respect, and purrr-sonalized care.😌

“Absolutely love using Beth to care for Pickles when we go on vacation. This time she watched Pickles and Tater for us. She goes above and beyond caring for them and making sure my very picky dogs are getting full bellies when they refuse to get their food. She is also very flexible with pickup and drop offs.”

“Sirius and Willow stayed with Rikki for an extended weekend when we went out of town. Rikki sent us pictures and videos daily keeping us updated on the dogs stay and their well-being. They were happy, safe, and comfortable playing with her pups and getting lots of attention! We will definitely be going back to Rikki for future trips since the dogs did so well with her ❤️ Thanks again!!”

“I left Lucy for her first Rover.com. We were immediately put at ease by Donna. She asked great questions regarding Lucy's care. She has a lovely home with a fenced in backyard. Donna continued to send awesome photos all week long. It was great to see Lucy interacting with the entire family including Opal her beautiful Bichon puppy. It appears that Lucy and Opal had a great time together. I would highly recommend Donna!”

“Leaving Rocco and Bella for 14 days (longer than we’ve ever been away from them) wasn’t easy. They’re family. But Lovenda made it feel not just manageable—but completely reassuring. Every afternoon like clockwork, she sent thoughtful updates with photos and little snapshots of their day. Not just “they’re fine” messages, but real glimpses into their adventures—happy faces, outdoor exploring, and the kind of relaxed body language you only see when dogs feel safe and loved. She gave them daily outdoor adventures and a great balance of activity and rest. Her fully fenced yard and the ability for them to move safely between indoor and outdoor spaces gave me huge peace of mind. I never once worried about their safety. What stood out most was how much she genuinely seems to like the dogs she cares for. When I picked them up, they were happy, healthy, and clearly adored. If you’re looking for someone reliable, communicative, and truly invested in your dogs’ wellbeing, Lovenda is a rare find. I would book her again without hesitation.”

“My Smitty had a wonderful time hanging with Beverly and her sweet dogs. I could tell when I dropped him off and when I picked him up that he was cared for by a committed dog owner. You can tell by the way she spoke to my sweet boy. I knew he was in good hands. I will be back the next time my travels take me out of town.”

She was incredibly flexible with timing, and I can’t imagine leaving our dogs with anyone else moving forward. Six stars if I could!”

Tami went above and beyond. Got lots of updates, photos ect. Her home is a good fit, her 2 little fur babies are great. Again a person could not want or expect more.”

Jessica was amazing! We were planning to take our pups with us to central Kansas, but it was going to be a very quick trip and a 7 hour drive each way. We contacted Jessica who liked ves not far from us. She came in, fed our pups breakfast, went about her day and did the same for lunch and dinner. She was great at letting us know how they were doing, when she would be there, etc. we got home a few hours ago and the pups were happy and they were fine and excited to see us! Yes, we will definitely contact Jessica again. She was wonderful!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Penrose home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Penrose.

<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Penrose sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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.

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 .

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.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
