“Lauren has been absolutely AMAZING! She sent detailed reports every visit with pictures and everything! We even forgot to feed our fish and she happily did that for us! This was our first experience with Rover and we were a bit nervous about having someone we don’t know in our home, but I’m so glad we did and chose Lauren! She’s trustable, kind, and LOVES our pups! We will definitely recommend her to everyone and are so happy we found someone to watch our pups!!! ♥️”

“Brenna was super helpful while I was out of town. She kept me updated on my dog’s digestive issues he was having that began after I left. She went above and beyond to make sure he was cared for in my absence. My dog had an accident between visits and she let me know immediately and provided the necessary care to my home so I came back with one less thing to worry about. This is my second time booking her and I feel even more confident that my dog is in good hands with her.”

“Patty was just fantastic! Our pups had a lot of fun with her, and we had complete peace of mind knowing they were well taken care of. She sent us adorable pictures and was very responsive. We'll definitley be using her again in the future!”

“Patrica is thoughtful and considerate. I never worried about my cats in her care. They rush to the door to greet her. My cats know she is a wonderful person and I’m very grateful.”

“I am incredibly grateful to Stephanie for taking such great care of my dog, Joe. From the moment we talked, I could tell she was a true animal lover. She went above and beyond to ensure Joe was happy, comfortable, and well-cared for. Her communication was excellent, providing regular updates and photos that put my mind at ease. Joe returned home healthy, happy, and clearly well-loved. I highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. Thank you, Stephanie!”

“Amy was wonderful! We had an extended trip overseas and she was able to watch our cats as a last minute booking when a previous plan had fallen through! She was able to come meet the cats before we left and asked incredible questions to get all the best details to make everyone as comfortable and happy as possible. While we were away, she provided constant thorough updates and great pictures to help us feel at ease. We highly recommend her for pet care, and feel very happy and lucky that we had her for our furbabies! Thank you so much!”

“Sauni did a wonderful job watching Norm. She really took the time to know his personality and little quirks in the few days she was with him. The pictures and updates were very thorough and it was so easy to communicate with her. I had forgotten to leave out cleaning instructions in case Norm got sick, but she was very proactive and used her best judgement to clean it up. I really appreciated her not just leaving it even when she wasn't able to reach me right away. We are so excited to have found Sauni and will be rebooking her next month!”

“Kristina was amazing with our puppy Willow!! She helped Willow get more confident on her walks and adventure out a little further each time! She also helped with redirecting Willow’s destructive behavior (of tearing up her pee pads) to a toy! I highly recommend Kristina and will look to her for more sitting in the future!”


“Bryon was very good at communicating and sending updates and pictures. He really cares about your animals and takes the time to learn about them and spend time with them. Would definitely recommend him to pet sit for your animals!”

“Wonderful !!!!! We have two apprehensive older german shepherd's and they had no issue with Leanne. We have booked her again for house sitting and know she will do great. Thank you.!”

About: I’ve cared for pets since childhood, raising both cats and dogs of my own and helping neighbors, friends, and family with theirs. I have experience with puppies as young as 15 weeks, energetic adults, and senior dogs requiring gentle, patient care (I've also raised two cats from kittens to adulthood). I’ve personally walked through the joy of raising pets and the heartbreak of saying goodbye to four beloved dogs and one cat in their senior years, which gives me a special compassion for aging pets. What sets me apart is not just my love for animals, but my reliability and consistency — families know they can trust me to show up, follow routines, and treat their pets with the same care I give my own. As a stay-at-home mom (child is two) and small business owner who works from home, my schedule is very flexible and allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or cuddle breaks, I can give pets consistent attention and care throughout the day. I provide a safe and welcoming home environment with no other pets, so your dog will have my full attention. Our home has two stories and a fenced in backyard - so plenty of room to play! I can easily crate your pup if you provide the crate, and I’m happy to follow any routines or special instructions. I only accept pets who are comfortable around children, as my two-year-old, who has been raised around animals from infancy and is always supervised, loves animals and is a regular part of our daily routine during bookings, so your dog will enjoy extra love and company in a family-friendly setting. If I'm looking after your cat, you can expect the same attention to care for their routines and/or special instructions (admittedly, if your cat's a snuggler, I can't help but to have my allergies take a backseat!).
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, which has given me extensive experience in caring for them. In addition, I’ve volunteered at the Aurora Animal Shelter and the Animal Friends Alliance in Fort Collins, CO. At the Animal Friends Alliance, I received specialized training to work with "purple" dogs—those who are mildly reactive, easily overstimulated, difficult to manage, or have bad manners. This experience has given me the skills to work with dogs that require a little extra care, and I’m more than capable of handling them! I also have experience administering medication to dogs! I currently work full-time for an event company, so most days I will be gone for up to 8 hours. I primarily work in the evenings, which means I’m available to care for your pet during the day and can return at night just in time to cuddle with them as we sleep. However, if you're looking for all-day care, my days off are Monday and Tuesday! When caring for a client's pet, I make sure to follow any instructions provided to the letter. I understand that the client knows their pet best, and adhering to their guidance ensures the pet is as comfortable as possible while their owner is away and helps keep the client satisfied with my care. If no specific instructions are given, and I have any questions regarding the pet’s needs, I will reach out to the client for clarification. This ensures I create a safe and comfortable environment for both myself and the pet I’m looking after.
“Sara was AMAZING with my 2 girls. She checked in every visit with updates and sent pictures. Sara was very pleasant to work with and I would recommend her to all my friends and family. I will definitely book her again for future needs. Thank you so much Sara for taking such good care of my girls. I appreciate you so much.”

“So grateful for Heather! She took great care of my dog and updated me of anything going on with her etc. Now I know if I leave out of town again she will be just fine, as I will be requesting Heather again!”


“Camryn has been been doing daily drop in’s for my puppy for a week now. She has done a great job and I’m very appreciative of her taking the time to do so. It not only helps my puppy get through the work day, but it puts me at ease as well. I highly recommend Camryn for any pet sitting needs you may have.”

“Kate did a great job watching over our two kitties and the house on a long weekend away! Great communication, came on time, and got our shy littlest one to come out on day one. Thank you, Kate!”

“Kyla is amazing and she cared for our cats very well! One of our cats is insulin dependent and she had no issues giving him the injection. Kyla is prompt, professional and communicative! It was so nice being able to get away and not be worried about our cats.”

Side Creek pet parents share their Rover experiences
We have used Leanne as a dog walker for years. This time we used her to also drop in while we were away for the weekend to take care of all our animals. She did a fantastic job! Everyone was well taken care of and the communication was excellent throughout our trip.

Heather is the best. She was available last min for my week vacation after a family member flaked on watching my pups. She responded quickly to my request and kept me updated the entire time. The pictures also let me see how happy my pups were while I was away. I will recommend and use her services again in the future.

Brenna was so communicative and attentive to my sweet kitty. She is a long haired kitty and Brenna brushed her every day. She sent lots of pictures and took care of her and cleaned up when needed. I already asked her for more dates to get her on the calendar for next month.

Lenka took great care of our two cats while we were on vacation. She came daily to feed them, play, administer medication, and scoop litter. Near the end of our trip she alerted us that our boy kitty wasn’t using the litter as much as usual; after we got home he developed a full blown urinary blockage (which can quickly become fatal), but we caught it early and successfully treated it thanks to her diligence and alerting us to the situation. I would highly recommend Lenka!

Raenae was the most amazing dog sitter we could have asked for. She treated our dogs like her own and truly went above and beyond. We can’t say enough good things about her, and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their fur babies.
