“We used Rover for the first time and had an absolutely wonderful experience with Jolene and Thomas. We felt very comfortable meeting Jolene. She provided excellent updates and pictures throughout the weekend. We can tell that our dog also was very comfortable in their home and returned to us well taken care of. Jolene and Thomas provided excellent care and we recommend them without any reservations”

About: I have 20+ years of experience taking care of senior dogs, puppies, and rambunctious teens. I lost my senior girl in August 2026 and have wanted to spend time with the energy and love of dogs since then. She was on a few medicines, but we made her sunset years beautiful and fun. I would love to spend time with your pets, making sure they are happy, safe, and comfortable while you are gone! I’m currently looking for remote work and have all the time in the world for your pets! I am interested in spending time outside with pets, making sure they are having fun while you are gone! My home is open to dogs, but unfortunately an allergy prohibits cats. I have a ranch style house which is nice and easy for seniors to get in and out of. The backyard is fenced so they can roam, or we can put on a leash and explore the land around us. I have dog beds and toys for them to tear up or carrying around - whatever’s clever!

“Angela is the dog sitter we’ve been searching for! We have two large dogs who immediately were welcomed into her home. During their stay, they got to enjoy walks on her property and their favorite game of fetch. They came home exhausted and happy from all the fun. Angela is also great at communicating and was very helpful with drop off and pick up. I’d highly recommend her and her family!”

“Sorry for the late review… but Lila was great!! She handled my dog’s quirks and goofy personalities with ease. Ranger seemed to have fun with Lila. She took him on car rides, walks, and let him sniff around every inch of her fenced in back yard. And my dog even made a friend with her Guinea Pig ? Thanks Lila! I’d definitely use her service again.”

Raffelina is an excellent" puppy sitter". She took care of our 15 year old and our 1 year old. She took great care of our older dog who can't hear or see and I believe she was very caring and loving toward her. The same with our little puppy who demands a lot of attention too. Communication with us was exceptional. We received both texts and pictures. I highly recommend Raffelina to care for any pets.

Miranda took our pup into her home for an extended trip, and came by our house to take care of the cat. They both seemed very happy in her care and our dog was able to romp around with her pups for some good socialization. We appreciate all she did for them and would recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Salida is $41 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $75 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 23 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Salida. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

88% of sitters in Salida can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Salida 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 Salida.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Salida. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 88% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

You and your Salida 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.

Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
