About: Hi my fellow fur loving friends! I have been an animal lover as long as I can remember and grew up with dogs and cats my entire life. My friends and family truly call me animal whisperer. I promise to care for your fur babies just as I care for my own boys, Cooper and Jasper. Whether your pup loves walks, playtime, cuddles, or just having someone around for company, I’m here to make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved! I work from home, so your pets can get plenty of attention, snuggles, and companionship throughout the day. My community has beautiful sidewalks that are perfect for walks, and there is an off-leash dog park extremely close by for pups who love to run and play. One thing to note: I do not have a fenced-in yard, so outdoor time at home would always be supervised and on-leash. However, we have great walking paths right outside my door and a dog park nearby for extra exercise and playtime. Go ahead and request a meet & greet so we can make sure it’s the perfect fit! I can’t wait to meet you and your pups and/or kitties and give them all the love and attention they deserve.

“Leaving our doodle Juni is never easy because she’s our baby, but Yumiko gave us complete peace of mind. She took wonderful care of her for 9 days over the Fourth of July, sending thoughtful updates and photos twice a day, taking her on multiple walks, and giving her so much love and attention. We especially appreciated that she stayed home with the dogs during the fireworks so they would feel safe and comfortable. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup. We highly recommend Yumiko and will absolutely book with her again!”

Rene (and her family when home) gave Benjie a safe, secure, nurturing and loving place for his entire 9-day stay. She is a good communicator, texting questions when needed and sending pics every couple days. I felt such a relief when I dropped him off and knew that he was in a peaceful, loving environment. The day after I brought him home, he was very somber for the entire day and I knew he missed her and her wonderful family. Best experience ever!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
