“Alison took such great care of my pup, sent pictures and updates throughout his stay and made me feel confident that he was content and happy while we were away! Would absolutely book again :)”
“Kyle took great care of our 1 yr old pup. He was quick to respond, was open to having our dog and his dog meet beforehand, and kept us updated while we were out of town! Plus his dog is very sweet and was a great companion to have to keep our dog company.”
“Angie was great! This was the first time we left Andouille with Angie and I really appreciated the meet and greet beforehand. She was communicative and always responded quickly. Andouille is about 5 months and still a puppy, but she did great with Angie. Andouille had a blast and is tired from all of the play time and walks.”
“Emily is so kind and took the best care of my Beau while I was out of town. He had an absolute blast playing with Dale and passed out as soon as we got home. I had a nightmare situation that put me late to pick my dog up from her and she was very understanding of the situation. I would recommend Emily to anyone looking for dog care in Arvada and hope to be able to leave Beau with her and Dale in the future. Thank you Emily!”
“Jonathan was amazing. Our dog struggles with separation anxiety and Jonathan made sure she was comfortable and very well taken care of. He gave us constant updates, and adorable pictures/videos. He made our first time using Rover a great experience and helped us with all our worries and questions. Bruno was also an amazing companion and helped our dog feel at home. Would highly recommend and will definitely be using his services again!”
“As dog parents, we wanted our fur baby with someone reliable as well as professional- and Ashley delivered on every level✨. Communication was prompt and clear, and we especially appreciated the updates/pictures, which allowed us to have peace of mind knowing our dog was in excellent hands. Most importantly, Islay was happy when I picked her up. We would confidently book again!”
“Kimber was amazing! She provided so many welcome updates and truly loves dogs. She had our puppy Penny for the weekend and it sounded like they had a blast together. I appreciated all the updates we got throughout the weekend, thanks so much Kimber!”
“My guy luffy seemed to be having so much fun getting all the cuddles he needed while i was away. Jay was super helpful and efficient with coordinating drop off and pick up times. When I got luffy home he was pooped so he definitely had a great time.”
“We suspect our dogs love Zory and Kent as much as they love us! They get tons of affection, playtime, and walks at Zory & Kent’s house - the best we could ask for! And we get plenty of pictures and updates while we’re away. We love when they are available to care for our crew!”
“Jessie was amazing! Very communicative and sent a lot of photos. I can tell my dog had a nice time with her. It gave me the peace of mind to have a nice getaway knowing my dog was in great hands! Would use her again for sure! 10/10!!!!”
“Asher & Alexandra were awesome! Both of my dogs are shelter pups with some anxiety and Asher, Alexandra, and their two dogs put them right at ease. One of my dogs especially can be anxious and takes medicine in the morning and he was as relaxed as he's ever been during the stay, he even made a new best friend with one of their dogs which he never does! Overall can't recommend them highly enough, they were great to interact with, sent tons of pics, and most importantly my dogs had a wonderful time.”
“We had an amazing experience with Rebecca! She is very professional, communicative, and truly caring. Our dog, Milo, was well taken care of, happy, and healthy throughout our vacation. Rebecca provided regular updates and photos, that made the kids’ day while away . We highly recommend Rebecca and will definitely book her again in the future!”
“Highly recommend Laura & Jeremy! They were super responsive and sent lots of updates with photos of my dog. Their space is amazing and I felt very comfortable leaving Brady with them for the weekend. Will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Kristen is absolutely my go to sitter. She recently watched my 13 year old dog and my 6 month old kitten and they both had a blast! I love that she sends photos and updates every evening!”
“I can't say enough how happy I am to have found such wonderful sitters! Zero worries leaving my dog - Felicia and Ethan take such good care of him and treat him like their own!”
“Deborah always takes such great care of my pup. She always responds quickly and sends regular updates. I always feel confident leaving my dog with her and know he’s getting the best care.”
“Angela's home is devoted to efficiently and lovingly handling dogs. Angela welcomed my dog Shessy as part of the clan. Shessy received plenty of attention and all my requested needs for her were met with care and attention. The communication was excellent. I would trust my dog with Angela anytime, she is a very enthusiastic, warm, and conscientious caretaker.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Thornton
Kassidy went to great lengths to take care of our dog, give her medication, shared pictures and updates and even took extra steps when she noticed that our dog started to develop small rashes on her feet. We couldn't ask for better care. Kassidy gets five stars all around!
Sylvana is the best dog-sitter! My dog became part of the household and I received updates throughout each day and lots of photos. My dog seemed relaxed and happy! When I picked him up, he was excited, but also kept going over to Sylvana for more petting. We will definitely be returning 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!
We absolutely love having Sara watch Kiwi! We’ve had her stay a couple of times now, and Kiwi always gets so excited when she knows she’s going to Sara’s. She has a blast playing with Sara’s puppy, playing in the little pool, and the ball playpen. Kiwi always comes home happily tired! Sara sends daily updates and takes great care of her. We highly recommend Sara!

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 .
