“Very accommodating for list minute booking and change in drop off and pick up times. Valisa and her son were outstanding with my hard headed bulldog. He came home tired everyday from playing with her dogs and was so excited to go back for another day. Will definitely use her again in the future, highly recommended to any one looking for a great sitter for their fur babies. Never was ever concerned that he wasn't being taken care of.”


“Hugo had the best time today! Loved his new play buddy and the care he received.”


About: I have always had pets of my own and I also was a veterinary technician for a combined total of 10 years. I also have many years experience pet sitting. I’m proficient in administering all medications and subq fluids. I’m qualified to handle any type of pet emergency that could happen. I am especially great with senior animals that need a little more care and patience. I am a life long pet owner and former vet tech who now works remotely and I own my own home with a big fenced in yard. Perfect for watching your fur babies! I have a big fully fenced in yard and I live right across from a green space perfect for walks. I also have a very friendly cat and dog who do well with visitors!

About: I grew up with dogs and cats and have never lived without them. I adopted my dog 7 years ago and she is my best friend. We go on hikes together every weekend and walk daily. My dog has separation anxiety which has made me learn different techniques in this field. I have a background working with dogs and have a wide range of knowledge when it comes to breeds,ages, and different personality types. I understand to the fullest how nerve wracking it is to leave your dog with a stranger. I promise to treat your pet like one of my own and to ensure they have the best time during their stay with me. I am so excited to care for your pet! I work from home and I have a very flexible schedule so your dog will never be alone and I can easily fit your dogs schedule around my own! Whether that means frequent potty breaks or walks, or if your dog needs some basic training I got you covered. I have a walking trail right outside of my apartment with miles and miles of trails. Me and my dog Luna usually walk in the afternoons and have lots of potty breaks throughout the day. Depending on your dog's energy level we can go on multiple walks/jogs if needed.

About: My mum and I possess a wealth of firsthand pet care experience, having nurtured and cared for two beloved Beagles in our family. One of them has been with us since puppyhood, allowing us the unique joy of watching them grow and develop. The other is a rescued pet, which reflects our commitment to providing a loving and supportive home to animals in need. Beyond the rewarding journey of raising our own dogs, we also bring valuable experience in dog training. Together, we have successfully trained them to perform both basic and intermediate commands such as Sit, Down, Roll Over, Speak, Stay, Leave it, and even use a bell to signal when they need to go outside. I have the luxury of working remotely full time, which grants me the freedom to be present for furry companions at a moment’s notice. Whether it’s a midday walk, a play session, or simply offering the companionship they crave, I’m readily available to meet their needs throughout the day. My mum is retired and also enjoys spending time with pets, so between the two of us, your pet will have plenty of attention, care, and company throughout the day. With a securely fenced yard, I’ve taken measures to ensure my furries can play, explore, and exercise freely without compromising their safety. The fenced enclosure provides them with a protected space to indulge in their natural instincts, fostering both physical and mental wellbeing.

“Hector was so welcoming and accommodating to my dog, and was very communicative throughout the day. His dog Bruno is also the perfect plat pal for my boy, and they tired each other out! Thank you!”


“My Apollo had the best time! She took very good care of him! Sent pictures and sent updates throughout the day! We will definitely be using her services in the future ❤️”



“Kathy is wonderful with my rambunctious puppy! Highly recommend her!”


About: I specialize in caring for anxious, sensitive, senior, or “high maintenance” dogs, which is why I only care for 1 dog at a time or 2 dogs from same household. Easy-going dogs are also welcome! I have a work-from-home day job plus my son and husband assist with care, so your pet will rarely if ever be home alone. We have a fensed in backyard and live a 7-minute walk to the park. This is a great space for older dogs and dogs with mobility issues. I provide an end-of-day summary of your pet's day as well as multiple pictures throughout each day, so you can feel at ease. I can often accept same-day requests with flexible drop-off/pick-up times. *** For day-care, I still only take 1 dog at a time or 2 pets from same home. Please note that I am out-of-town approximately 4-5 week days per month, and drop-off must occur before 8am M-F and pick-up must occur after 4:30pm due to my work meeting schedule.*** I work full time, but I have a flexible enough schedule that I can take care of your pets while you are out of town. I just need to plan pick-up/drop-off around remote meetings. I follow your walk/potty/feeding schedule, and I spend time playing in the backyeard each day with your pet. Your pet will rarely if ever be home alone because my husband and son are able to assist with care. I can can provide pick-up / drop off service as needed depending on the time frame.

“We had a bit of a mishap with drop off, but Ken was very responsive and apologetic about it, which I totally appreciated. He shared some things about my pup that I never noticed or had an opportunity to see about Bootz, and that was excellent of him in doing so. I would definitely recommend him to watch your fur babies 100%”


About: He cuidado perros de todo tipo desde que tengo uso de razón y ellos también han cuidado de mí, además de cuidar a perros de vecinos , amigos y familiares, también acogía a perros sin hogar temporal hasta encontrar una familia que los adoptara I have cared for all kinds of dogs since I can remember and they have also cared for me. In addition to caring for dogs belonging to neighbors, friends and family, I also took in dogs without temporary homes until I found a family to adopt them. Actualmente trabajo a tiempo parcial, así que tengo mucho tiempo para jugar con tus bebes y hacer que se sientan seguros y queridos bajo mi cuidado I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with your babies and make them feel safe and loved in my care. Tengo un balcón grande y un apartamento espacioso en el que pueden andar libremente, además del área de juegos del condominio, para pasearlos y así se ejerciten. I have a large balcony and a spacious apartment where they can roam freely, in addition to the condominium's play area, so they can walk around and exercise.

“Greyson did a great job taking care of my pup. He asked lots of questions, which I appreciate. Thank you!”


About: I've spent my whole life with a canine by my side, with the exception of my year away at college and a year when I lived with cats instead. Recently lost my best friend to cancer without warning, they say grief is love with no where to go and so I've turned to Rover as we are in a transitional period that does not allow for our own full-time friend but instead allows me to full-time love on others friends. Recently purchased our new 3000+ sq ft home with a back yard in a nice little suburban neighborhood. There's walking paths and green belts and if your friend is good at the park, we can even go visit some of the nearby dog parks on the long-hauls. My fiance & I eventually plan to bring a doggo of our own home again but in the mean time we look forward to hanging with yours. No stranger to special dietary instructions, picky eaters, and big personalities - as long as we aren't having inside accidents (the carpets are white) then we're happy to meet you! Need someone to come to you instead? You've got it. Willing to travel anywhere within the Denver Metroplex; Boulder to Fort Collins, Golden to Castle Rock, and every where in between - with enough notice we can make sure any furry friend is looked after and walkin'. I'm currently seeking full-time work so my schedule is open to hang with your pup all day! I may have random errands or things to do but if we are scheduled to be together, your pup is my priority. We have a fenced yard where your friend can hang in the sun of the morning or shade of the afternoon. We have a neighborhood with great walking paths & green belts as well as a short walk to some of the great city green areas. If your doggo is park friendly, we can jump in the car and go to the park for a romp or if they like water, maybe a lake day? The sky is the limit, and I'm happy to give a good rinse if we end up doing something stinky! I have a crate in-house that fits up to a 75 lb dog comfortably, if for whatever reason your friend cannot join me out of the house (which does happen, especially in the summer), your friend would be crated. The crate has a small water dish, though some do prefer we do not add water so it's up to you. My late friend got Bark Box for many years and was very picky about his toys so there's a good chance your friend will have a new toy here to play with, or perhaps the toy box will come up to play from the basement with the really playful friends! Our home is 3000+ sq ft with a basement and upper level; there are stairs so if your friend is mobile impaired and stairs are hard we may not be the right fit (though I'm always happy to carry smaller friends up/down if need be, I max about 35 lbs lift). There are doors on all of our rooms, these are likely to be closed if your friend is visiting. We try to keep trash cans up and off the floor with 85% of our cans covered/dogproof. If your friend is a trash diver please let us know so we can secure the other trash cans accordingly. Dog friends tend to get to sleep where they wish in our home, though if your friend has a favorite bed/soft place then I would welcome it into the house for their comfort.

“Jed has a nice sized backyard for our boy to run around in. We just needed a sitter for a few hours and it was nice that he had a few other dogs there to keep our pup company.”


“I've used Jenna's services with my dog Shadow several times and in several ways - boarding, dogsitting, and dog walking. She's just amazing, I am so thrilled that I found her, she's helped me out last minute before which was indispensable and my dog loves her and her dogs and her family so much. He already knows their names I can tell him in the morning "Do you wanna see Penny and Bindi and Jenna?" And he just freaks out. I can't recommend her highly enough! If you're looking for someone to really care for your dog like they're part of the family, look no further than Jenna!!”


“Katiee and her family took great care of Louie while I was at work and sent me lots of pictures :) I’ll definitely be using them again!”


About: I've taken care of neighbor's and friend's dogs since I was a kid! We had a family black lab growing up and now I have a beautiful 5 year old pitbull mix of my own. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes and would love to watch yours! I work outside of the house but am flexible enough in my schedule that I can always come home if needed. I can crate any dogs that need it if I'm running errands or just not in the house, or leave them out to play with my dog! I have a doggy door and an enclosed backyard if more frequent potty breaks are required. I have one medium sized (35lb) dog who always loves to meet new friends. All of the dogs are walked separately so I can give my full attention to each and everyone. Your dogs can sleep in bed with us or we can easily put them into a crate or their personal bed.

“Brittany was great with Trevor! He would get so excited whenever I’d drop him off. She sent me plenty of pictures and videos throughout the day and gave me a full rundown when I would pick him up.”


About: I have taken care of my friends and all my families dogs by housing, grooming or walking. I used to show dogs be a junior handler and train all kinds of dogs for obedience, confirmation and agility. We work from home, so we are home all day and week. We have a 5 year old cane corso and a 1 year old winner dog both males and a 12 year old female cat. I let out my dogs whenever they want to go outside they get fed twice a day morning and night. They get new toys every month from bark box. We used to make dog food but our dogs are picky and don’t like the same food all the time.


“This was my first rover experience and it was great! Ava was so great and super welcoming! My doggies had a great time and I would definitely be contacting Ava anytime I’m in the Denver area 🩷”
