“Conan had another great stay with Chris and Laura and their crew! We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing that he was in good hands. They welcomed him into their home and showered him with TLC, snuggles, and trips to the dog park! Thank you Chris and Laura!”
“Michael is a very nice person who took in my 2 small dogs last minute while we were visiting Glenwood Springs for a family weekend getaway. My dogs were stressed out staying at a hotel and I needed to find a sitter fast. Michael greeted us outside of his very nice community located right near the Colorado river. He was very welcoming and patient and gave excellent care to my dogs. He followed all of my care instructions and my pups were happy and wagging when I picked them up. I would highly recommend him to watch your pets!”
“Suzanne lives in a beautiful mountain location with plenty of hiking paths nearby. I could tell Pepe felt relaxed during his stay and he hopes to visit again. I highly recommend Suzanne.”
“Charlotte was so great with our dog. He is usually very wary of new people, but he warmed up to Charlotte and the others in the house quickly and easily. I would definitely feel great about leaving him in her care again.”

“David was very kind with Trigger and when we picked Trigger up we could tell he was very well taken care of. We travel a lot and are thankful for people like David. We would definitely recommend David to anyone needing their boarded. Would give 10 stars if we could!!!”

What sets me apart is the combination of patience, reliability, and genuine love I bring to every pet I care for. I treat each dog like part of my family and focus on creating a safe, calm, and fun environment while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout the day.

I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while in my care.

Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I make sure they are in a clean, secure, and stress-free environment. I carefully follow each pet owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and daily routines to help pets feel comfortable and maintain consistency. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality, needs, and preferences, ensuring they receive the appropriate level of attention, exercise, and affection. During walks, I always use secure leashes and remain attentive to my surroundings. In a client's home, I treat their space with respect and make sure their pet receives loving, reliable care while they are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Rifle
Wow. I am a new Rover user, and had hesitations. I have 2 young active dogs, and dropping them off for 30 days was daunting to say the least. David made the process easy. I was reassured they would be taken good care of, he makes homemade dog treats, kept them active with photos and videos of them having so much fun. They came back healthy, happy and groomed. I highly recommend David for long or short term stays. Great job.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Rifle on Rover is $53.28 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Every sitter has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Rifle 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 Rifle.
Tip: 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 Rifle 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.
