“Carson loves spending time with Jason, Sherry, and his doggy friends. He sleeps very well when he spends the day. I so appreciate the great care Carson gets. I highly recommend Sherry and Jason.”
“Thank you so much Matalyn! She was so great with our husky! She’s flexible and allowed us to drop off our dog earlier since we arrived early in the city for the royal gorge train ride.”
“Juliann was great! She was able to take my puppy last minute. She sent several pictures, I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with her. I'd definitely use her again when I'm in Colorado Springs. Thanks Juliann!”
“Booch spent her first day with Jocelyn. I loved getting the pictures and report. Booch was a bit nervous at first but Jocelyn was so kind. Booch was active all day with Pumpkin and is now resting. Booch can't wait for her next visit.”
“Beth was great! She responded quickly to a last minute request and readily answered all my questions, Reggie seemed to have a great time and it was fun getting photos throughout the day. Whenever I need puppy care in the future I'll definitely go with Beth!”
“My chihuahua mix doggies, Roscoe and Mia love Donna and she loves on them. They come home happy and content and I know they have had a great time with Donna, her dog, Opal and her husband, Dave because they come home and sleep. Also there are always lots of terrific pictures. We are thankful for Rover and Donna!”
“Wonderful first sitter experience! Wendy had a wonderful time with Kiley last week. Although we don’t need a frequent sitter, we met prior and I knew Wendy would be well cared for. I received pictures and videos throughout the day. Kiley is kind and loves animals!”
“OUTSTANDING CARE FOR PRINCESS. WE (MY WIFE AND I) BOTH RECEIVED DIFFERENT PICTURES OF PRINCES PLAYING WITH ANOTHER DOG. SHE WAS NOT SCARED OR NERVOUS, AND NOT SHAKING AT ALL WHEN WE PICKED HER UP. WE HAD A VERY BAD EXPERIENCE WITH ANOTHER FACILITY WHERE PRINCESS HAD TO STAY OVERNIGHT. IT WAS TERRIFYING FOR PRINCESS AND VERY UPSETTING TO US. WE WILL CONTINUE USING ROVER AS THE NEED ARISES FOR OUT OF TOWN MEDICAL TRIPS FOR MY WIFE OR ME. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PROGRAM.”
“Im thankful for Amber’s patience with King. About 4 hours in he became anxious crying for me and she made me aware in case I wanted to get him earlier. She provided clear communication throughout and is willing to welcome him again into her home and sharing her time with him.”
“Erica is very sweet and kept us posted about how everything was going with our puppy during the day. We’re in town just for a few days and it was great to find her and let the dog have a break of the trip schedule.”
“Watched My 7 month old German shepherd for the day. Ryder loved his kids and playing with them. Super nice and friendly family. He was exhausted by the time I picked him up and they had nothing but good things to say about his stay. Will use again to watch my pup, he was taken care of and they were easy to get ahold of and communicated back quickly. Definitely recommend.”
About: What started off as a family pet to teach me about empathy and responsibility, turned into a life-long love for animals of all kinds. From a goldfish to a golden retriever, and every animal in between ❤️ I am currently a full time remote employee so I am home 7 days a week. My job offers flexible schedules which allows me the opportunity to go for walks, play at the park, or even toss the ball around in the yard. I live in a townhome and my HOA requires all pets be leashed when outside. However, we have a dog park that is about a half mile away so it is an easy walk there and back. There are also a few trails close by that are great for an afternoon walk. I have multiple dog beds throughout my home as well as a small crate, and animals are allowed on the furniture (including the bed). I also have a basket full of toys for enrichment and provide a variety of treats (owner permitted) throughout the day. I use a gravity water dispenser so fresh, clean water is available at all times. I free feed dry food, and provide wet food on a "breakfast", "lunch", and "dinner" schedule.
“Tyler was great and helped us with a last minute change in schedule. He was flexible which really helped, and Beatrice got to play with Oliver and Snickers rather than being stuck in a kennel all day.”
About: Hi there! I’m Charlotte, and I’ve spent the last 11 years turning my love for animals into a full-blown passion. I started as a dog trainer at Petco over a decade ago, which means I speak "Dog" fluently—from bouncy puppies to those quirky breeds with big personalities. If you’re currently working on training, I’m your girl! I’d love to keep those good habits going while you’re away. I live in a cozy two-bedroom home with my partner, John, and our two boys, Odis and Pete. We have a big, fenced-in backyard that is basically a private dog park! Your pup will have a built-in playmate in Odis, who is a total social butterfly. (Our other guy, Pete, is a rescue-in-progress who prefers his own space, so he stays in a separate wing of the house to keep the environment stress-free for everyone!) I don’t just stop at dogs—I’m a fan of all creatures! Whether you have a tiny hamster, a talkative conure, or a cool reptile, they’ll get first-class love and care with me. I treat every guest like a member of our family. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur (or scale!) babies soon! Since I only work part-time (about 10–20 hours a week), my schedule is mostly wide open for what I do best: showering your fur babies with love! Whether it’s mid-day belly rubs or afternoon sun-nap sessions, I’m around to keep them company. Even if I have to pop out for a quick errand, I make it a rule to never be away for more than two hours—because I honestly miss them too much to stay away longer! Treating your pets like family isn't just a saying for me—it’s my standard! I’ll care for your fur babies with the exact same love and vigilance I give my two boys, Odis and Pete. Whether I’m in your home or mine, safety comes first. I’m a stickler for double-checking locks, following your specific feeding/medication routines to a T, and keeping a watchful eye during outdoor time. I know how tough it is to leave your heart in a stranger's hands, so expect plenty of 'puparazzi' photos and video updates! You’ll never have to wonder how they’re doing—you’ll see their happy faces right on your phone.
“Heather took such good care of my baby! Her dog Gauge was the perfect playmate for him too. My dog can be anxious but she made him feel very comfortable. She took him on walks, played fetch, and sent lots of pictures so I didn’t have to worry at all! I’d highly recommend her to anyone.”

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 Penrose 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 332 sitters in Penrose, 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.
