“Rachel is not only an extraordinary pet sitter, but she is an extraordinary person. Kind and delightful. She was wonderful with Buddha Bear and sent us lots of "Pupdates" of their walks, feeding, and hanging out in the yard. I know Bear had a great time. It was a bit challenging for us because we moved to the area less than two weeks ago, so we know our dog may be a little anxious at the moment with the move and everything that comes with it. Rachael was so patient with him, and he stayed with her while she was working. I couldn't speak more highly of her. I know Buddha Bear really loved her.”
“Misty was an awesome dogsitter for Sally! She took great care of her and sent lots of great photos to keep us updated. It was clear Sally was happy and well-loved. Highly recommend Misty to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Georgia was super accommodating with our last minute booking and took such good care of our fur babies! She sent photos and kept us updated throughout the stay. Would highly recommend!”
“Maggie was an outstanding dogsitter for Sally! She was incredibly caring, attentive, and kept me updated the entire time. It was clear Sally had a great time with her, and I felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. Highly recommend Maggie for anyone looking for a reliable and responsive sitter!”
“Emily was absolutely amazing with Zola! I got a lot of photo updates and reassurance that she was well taken care of while I was away! I will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her. Zola came home in a very good mood.”
“Julia is an absolute gem!! 💎 She greeted Kaya at her door and before I even had her bag out, she’d found Kaya’s favorite spot to be petted! I felt so comfortable knowing my girl was with a wonderful pet sitter, it helped make my weekend that much better. The communication was great - the photos and video of her enjoying her best life with Julia’s dog 🐶 and out walking made me smile and know I made the best decision for her. Highly recommend!!”
“Fred and Kim were so great with Nancy! This was my first time boarding her and they made her feel incredibly comfortable and welcome in a new space. They sent updates which I greatly appreciated as well.”
About: I have owned and cared for dogs my entire life, and my friends always joke that my dogs live better lives than most humans. We recently lost one of our pups, so our other dog Louie, could definitely use some new four-legged friends around the house. I’m very active typically walking 3-6 miles a day around Boulder, and we have a large backyard and a loving, dog friendly home where pups are treated like family. pet care fits naturally into my everyday routine. I’m very active and typically walking 3-6 miles a day around Boulder, so getting outside for walks, playtime, and fresh air is already a big part of my day. I work from home often, which gives me plenty of flexibility for feeding, bathroom breaks, attention, and keeping pups company throughout the day. my home is very dog friendly, comfortable, and welcoming, with a large backyard for plenty of supervised outdoor time and play. Dogs are treated like part of the family here, and I’m attentive to each pups normal routine, feeding schedule, personality, and comfort level. I always prioritize a safe, calm environment and make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while they’re with me.
“Buoy was happy and well taken care of while staying with Sidney! She is so flexible on drop off and pick up times. I was so thankful. Always willing to send pictures and updates. Very quick to respond to messages. We will be rebooking a stay soon! So thankful to have a place that Buoy is happy to go to while I’m out of town. The pack that she has welcomed him in seamlessly :)”
About: My dog is my top priority, and yours will be too! I’m able to take your dog on hikes, runs, and have some fun time with my almost 2 year old husky/heeler mix. Lots of cuddles, exercise, and fun time, while ensuring proper dog to dog boundaries. I have experience caring for dogs from puppies to seniors. I work from home full time, and so am able to provide care for your pets throughout the day. I am unable to care for dogs under 1 year old. Additionally your dog must be: 1) dog friendly, with no history of aggression towards dogs 2) people friendly 3) house trained 4) sleeps through the night I have a fenced yard and one playful two year old husky/heeler mix. Care can include yard play time, leashed walks, hikes, or runs, depending on the needs of your dog! I am also able to keep up with training and obedience with your dog, whether that includes reactivity, leash walking, jumping etc. A meet and greet is required before I am able to book new dogs.
“My older dog Santo did well with Jacqueline's gentle care. She understood his limitations, especially regarding heat. He had plenty of toys, and was able to play with her well behaved dogs. Jacqueline runs a tight ship, which I appreciate.”
“Curtis goes above and beyond as a dogsitter! He went out of his way to help move my booking when my plans changed, took my dog on loads of walks and dog park trips that my dog absolutely loved, and gave me fantastic updates in the form of cute and incredibly thorough reports. Curtis has a great attention to detail and ensures that your dog gets excellent care. I can’t recommend Curtis enough!”
“Sing-Chun, or Sally does a fabulous job. Great upstairs bedroom when an awesome window for kitty to sit high and scope the environment. She took care of my attention hogging kitty and brainstormed ways to entertain/occupy him. He is one spoiled cat. Thank you.”
“Amy was great to work with! She gave Dixie a lot of love and attention with lots of updates! You can tell she loves dogs and is attentive to details. Would definitely recommend and would leave my girl with her anytime!”
“Cole and his son did an excellent job taking care of our puppy, Siggi. Cole sent regular pictures and updates and was very easy to communicate with. We highly recommend him and will definitely book with him again.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Delane when she cared for Monet for three days. From the very beginning, during our meet and greet, we genuinely enjoyed our conversation with her. Delane is such a lovely and thoughtful person, and clearly experienced with dogs. Her dog, Lucy, is absolutely sweet and gentle, and Monet and Lucy got along very well. Delane’s home is warm and welcoming, and Monet settled in right away. She kept us updated throughout Monet’s stay, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that Monet was not only well cared for, but also comfortable. We would happily book with Delane again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, warm, and dependable caregiver. Thank you, Delane!!”
“Could not say more positive things about Nawal & Thomas! They went above and beyond with keeping me up to date about all the happenings and adventures my Greyson went on. They genuinely loved him like their own and he came home so incredibly calm and happy. Thank you so so much! Would book again in a heartbeat.”
“Noah was amazing with our little Lhasapoo, Gus. Within 90 minutes of dropping Gus off, Noah sent a photo of Gus curled up on a dog bed with Noah's little dog, Finley. This was a shock to see since Gus is easily intimidated by other dogs as a result of a very traumatic attack by three dogs 5 yrs. ago in another state. Noah subsequently sent several more pictures of Gus, Finley, and another small dog together. This made me so happy to see! Noah was also very understanding and accommodating when we had to adjust our travel plans three times for various reasons, including encountering an unexpected snow storm. I've already booked Gus's next stay with Noah (and Finley). : )”
“Alex and Jeffery were wonderful with our Bella! Such a sweet family they gave Bella lots of love and care! We knew she was well taking care of had great walks and was deeply loved. We felt so comfortable leaving the country knowing she was in such capable and caring hands. They have an incredibly large backyard so lots of room to run and play. We loved the photo updates and knowing how Bella was doing. I highly recommend them. She will be back with them again soon!”
“Sophie was awesome, she did a great job communicating with me, and handled a last minute, slightly scattered booking like a boss. Bruno loved being at the house, and I will definitely be reaching out when I’m in Boulder again!”

“Chelsea did a great job sitting for my cat! She made a point to engage with my cat during each visit and provided detailed feedback after each visit! I’d addition to taking care of our cat, she went out of her way to provide updates on the status of my aquarium, water plants, and cleaned up the litter dust. I will definitely be using Chelsea in the future!”
“Wenqi was amazing with my shy kitten Bobby!! She is super responsive and takes so many photos and videos. I can trust her completely to take care of my baby. 1000% recommend!”
“Christopher was such a great sitter for my cat! He was thoughtful, prompt, and caring. Christopher was super flexible with our needs as well. I will be booking Christopher again in the future.”
“Falecia was wonderful caring for my cat while we were gone for about five days. I got a ton of check-in photos and also pretty detailed updates on how my cat was doing. I was a little nervous given last time we left her with an in-home sitter she was pretty anxious when we came back. That can't always be helped with pets, but I know Falecia did her absolute best to make sure my girl was getting love and attention to stave off that separation anxiety some. Would happily book again.”
“Daniella was so great with my cat. She sent pictures from every visit, along with fun messages about how she is doing. My house was exactly the way I left it, and my cat was happy and healthy when I got home. Daniella exceeded my expectations, I would recommend to anyone. ”
“Kristen was a great choice to check in on our kitty while we were gone for the weekend. She was attentive, came to do a meet and greet beforehand, and went above and beyond during her visits. We will be using her again in the future :)”
“Otelia was such a great Rover! I had such an easy experience. She is very communicative which helped alleviate any anxiety I felt about leaving my kitty. She even left me a handwritten note at the end!”
“Our kitty has always been shy of people; however, after only two days our Ruthie girl let Bridgett per her and was purring for her! Bridgett must have a way with cats and I would recommend her to anyone!”
About: Hi there! I am a complete animal lover whether it's cats or dogs. I have had a cat for about 10 years now, taken care of her in various ways and I would be more than happy to take care of your cat and fill whatever needs they may have! I'm incredibly flexible and a caring person so your cat would be in good hands. I hope we can get in touch soon!
“Addisen was a fantastic pet sitter for my little girl! She provided excellent communication throughout the stay and sent wonderful photos that gave me peace of mind and made my day. I could tell my pup was well cared for and happy. I would absolutely hire Addisen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have six years of experience caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Whether I’m helping a friend, family member, or client, I treat every pet with the same love and care I would give my own. I am certified in Dog and Cat First Aid through the American Red Cross. Pets in my care get plenty of attention and exercise throughout the day! I want your pet to feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed, so I’m always happy to follow their usual schedule to make their stay feel as close to home as possible. Your pet's safety and happiness always come first. I live right next to North Boulder Park, so there's plenty of space to play and explore! I also live right by some great trails if your dog enjoys hiking. While I adore hosting social dogs, my home is also a great environment for dogs who prefer to be the only pet in the home, since I accept only one client at a time. I'm happy to accommodate multiple dogs from the same household though!
“Lynn is always so warm and caring with my cat. She’s very dependable, trustworthy and helpful with whatever may arise. I am so lucky to have her and recommend her highly”
About: I grew up on a farm where we had all kinds of animals including many dogs and cats that I adored. Specifically, we had a couple of German Shepherd dogs that required daily activity. I also went to school and graduated with a degree in Animal Science which focuses on Animal Husbandry. I have experience with basic obedience training along with administering medications to all types of animals. I have a full time job that allows me to work remotely a couple days during the week so I can do drop ins during the day if needed. My weekends are generally available to do overnights. I would be happy to accomodate any schedule needs you might have. I will be able to pick up on and monitor your pets behavior to ensure their safety. I am able to create a structured but friendly environment for those pets that need it.
“Rikku was great! He got to know our cat Boots quickly and boots warmed right up to him. When we got home boots seemed happy and comfortable. Would recommend Rikku!”
About: Have experience with small dogs (6-15 lbs), large dogs (40-60 lbs), including an extra large dog with special needs (blind and deaf great dane). Able to cater to any and all of your dogs needs - personal care (i.e. baths), exercise (i.e. hikes or dog parks), and sharing lots of love to keep them happy and comfortable. I work in Berthoud but live in Longmont, so I am available to work on the front range and I’m close to the mountains too! Typically in town during the week if I’m not traveling for work. Weekends are typically open! Willing to be flexible and work with you and your dog’s lifestyle to ensure the highest quality of service. Hoping to meet you soon and ready to take the best of care of your little (or big) one! :) P.s. also experienced in providing care for other species of pets (i.e. birds, cats, chickens, reptiles, etc) I currently work full-time but have flexibility in early mornings and anytime after 4 pm on week days. Weekends are more flexible overall for me! I take safety seriously to make sure pets stay happy and healthy in their environments. Building trust with a new person in their space is important!

“Jacky was AMAZING with Mecum, I swear he had the best night of his life. She was super attentive to his needs and brought him for many fun activities. Best Rover person I’ve ever met!!! I’m so grateful I met her and can’t wait for future trips for her to hang out with him! :) he moved right in and loved it. Thank you, Jacky! She also sent me frequent updates throughout the night and sent pictures/ videos. You’re the best, Jacky!!!!”
“Good area for dogs to run and play as it's a private home with a yard. The location was super convenient for me and communication with Noah was perfect. Dogs were "dog tired" when they got home which is great because it means they ran and played a lot!! Thank you!”
“Christine was fantastic and Lulu had a great time playing with Hondo! Lulu is a very anxious dog—Christine was understanding of her needs and Lulu warmed to her within just this first daycare visit. I’ll definitely be booking again and grateful to have another spot where I know Lu will be happy and wonderfully cared for.”
“Gus LOVED his time here. He got to play all day and every picture looked like the happiest guy on the block! It was also evident how much he loved it when I picked him up.. he didn’t want to leave! The only time he does that is with his foster mom. I would trust them any other time as they clearly made a paradise for my boy. Also their dog is so sweet and clearly a happy pup who loves to play. Last, great communication throughout the day!! Thank you again, Jessica!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and got one of my own as soon as I could. I love dogs and will treat yours as I would my own. We love to walk, hike, take the dogs swimming and fishing. My dog, Willie, is a sweet heart and will keep your dog company! Thanks for considering us and let us know if you have any questions! My boyfriend and I live together and he works full time from home and I’m in the office 3 days a week. Your pets will be well taken care of as we have lots of time to tend to them We have a shared backyard that we use for our dog and a park less than 5 minutes walking. Our dog is treated just like another human in the house and we will do the same for yours.
About: Name typo: actually Alicia, but call me Ali! Also! My family has always had pets and I currently have two bunnies. I have cared for dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, bunnies, and other rodents. I ride horses and work at a barn. I am always open to working with and learning about new animals. I am comfortable being hands-on: grooming, providing limited medical assistance, training, and exercising. For house-sitting, I am comfortable performing necessary chores and limited grounds maintenance. I am handy, careful, and detail oriented. Currently looking for a full-time opportunity to help a busy homeowner take care of their animals and property! I am currently looking for a part-time/full-time job as household support for busy homeowners. I am looking for a consistent position, but I am open to also providing occasional help. I am active and love to go on frequent hikes, runs, and walks. My condo has a large park right outside my door. When it comes to training, everything will be based on your preferences and instructions. I believe in verbal praise and/or a small treat for doing the right thing while ensuring that the good behavior is maintained while bad behavior is not rewarded. I am very patient and careful with more skittish animals when building trust; one of my rabbits was very anxious but is now very comfortable being handled now While you are away, you can trust that your pet's routine, love, and care will be matched to your standard. It is my goal to make sure your pets are being cared for and loved as you would for them yourself.
About: Growing up with pets, I’ve always had a deep connection with animals. My background in energy healing helps me tune into each pet’s unique needs, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable and loved while you’re away. After a decade of not having my pets, I'm deeply deficient in animal cuddles - I make up for it by showering my furry clients with extra affection, belly rubs, and snuggles. Whether your pet needs a calming presence, senior care, or just an adventure buddy, I provide attentive, personalized care so you can have peace of mind. I can’t wait to meet your fur family! I have a few recurring weekly meetings that I can join remotely, so I am available to housesit any time as long as there is steady internet. I am available to dog walk or make home visits in the afternoons. I can only provide care for pets in a client's home, as several elderly rescue dogs are living out their best lives at my home.
“Christine took great care of our dog. Lots of photo updates, walks, playing, and good communication before and throughout the day. Would definitely recommend and book again!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since childhood, starting with training and walking my first dog, which helped me develop patience, consistency, and a strong understanding of trust. I later co-parented a high-needs dog, gaining experience with behavior management, individual care needs, and medication administration. Throughout my life, friends and neighbors have relied on me to care for their animals, and I pride myself on being dependable, calm, and attentive. I also live an active lifestyle and would love to bring your dog along on hikes or outdoor adventures if that’s something they enjoy. I currently work part time in a hybrid role, and I love to fill some of my time caring for pups! I can’t wait to find out how I can support. My clean and spacious home is the perfect landing space for your pup between walks, potty breaks, rides around town, higher intensity hikes, or whatever activities your dog enjoys the most. Your dog will have the freedom to roam where they please, sit with me on the couch, or insist upon another walk. I pride myself on my attention to detail and risk management when it comes to any environment your dog and I are sharing, while optimizing fun and enrichment. Conveniently located next to a trail and several parks, we will have no shortage of excellent places to jaunt and play!
About: I grew up with pets all over the house - dogs, cats, guinea pigs, chickens, etc. I love animals and would love to care for yours. I love taking dogs on adventures and playing with or cuddling cats! I have a 5 year old heeler mix of my own now as well who has been such a treat to care for. I work remotely, so I'm able to provide care to your pet the entire day, which is why we book sitters, right? I have a dog of my own who gets multiple walks and lots of care / stimulation throughout the day as well. I will always be respectful of your home while checking in on your pet and be sure to properly lock everything up before leaving so you don't have worry!
About: I’ve been in love with dogs since I can remember, and my favorite type of work/volunteering has always involved them. When I was 15 I started dog sitting for my family friend, I watched and walked little Johnny twice a week for almost 2 years while his mom was out doing errands. After that, I started volunteering at the LoveJoy Foundation, an animal rescue in California. I walked dogs, cleaned crates, and even helped with vaccinations once a week at adoption events! My time at LoveJoy was one of the most rewarding experiences ever, and it taught me how to work with different types of dogs and different behaviors, including neurodivergent and disabled pups. I have a family dog of my own, sweet Montana, who will always be my best friend no matter how far apart we are. Montana is a bit older now, so we mostly enjoy hanging out on the couch together, but in his prior years I loved taking him on hikes, to the dog beach, and really anywhere that I went. I also have a crested gecko named Axel! I’m currently a junior at CU Boulder, so I do have school during the week but only for about 2-3 hours each day, most of the time I’m home to care for a pup! I absolutely love being outside here in Boulder, it’s too beautiful not to be, so walks and adventures are plentiful! I have a large house for your pup to roam around, but if it’s preferred that he stays in a crate during the day I can accommodate that too! My yard isn’t fenced, but we would have a lot of outside time at the park and on walks exploring all corners of Boulder. I do have experience dog sitting in client’s homes, I know that some dogs are probably more comfortable staying in their own home!
“Kyleigh was fantastic with our dog, and he's not the easiest dog in the world to manage. He came home tired and seemingly happy - a perfect combination! We'll definitely be using Kyleigh again!”
“We were visiting Boulder and took our dog with us and was lucky to find Liv. She always (proactively) sent photos of my baby and took him on walks and hikes and I can just see how excited and happy my baby was! Liv just had an aura that she loves dogs and that put me at ease to leave my baby with her, all day for 2 days. Thanks for taking care of my baby Liv.”
“Today was Ellie’s first doggy day care ever! She is a reservation Rescue and is rather shy. She did so wonderfully with Marion and her lovely dog Summit! It’s a testament to Marion and Summit that they were to able to have Ellie just thrive and do so well the first time ever in this new situation we will be returning next week!”
About: My name is Margo, but you can also call me Margaret. I’ve taken care of many dogs and other pets in Denver and now in the Boulder area. I have pets of my own and grew up with animals, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. I love spending time with animals at home and exploring the outdoors with them. I work from home most days with a flexible schedule, so I can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I take daily walks, attend dog meetups, and enjoy an active lifestyle on weekends. I offer both boarding in my home and house sitting in your home. For boarding, your dog has access to my fenced yard and nearby dog parks. For house sitting, I spend most of my time at your home and follow your pet’s normal routine while giving them plenty of attention and companionship.

“Madeline was very accommodating with timing to help out when I had movers over, and is great at adjusting to Alfie’s needs when it’s so hot out like this. Will use again!”
“Kristen has seemed to develop a relationship of ease with my anxious dog. She was reliable, asked relevant questions, and generally took great care of my sweet boy. I will definitely hire her again!”
“Cassidy was amazing. She was so accommodating, helped us with a last minute situation which we’re super thankful for. She was very communicative, punctual, flexible, and my boy absolutely loved her and her dog Rex. She’s a keeper! Thank you sooo much Cassidy!”
“Luka lived Joanie!! She was a trooper with taking him for out scheduled walks in subzero temperatures. She also gave home plenty of love and treats! Can’t wait to book her again!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13, primarily caring for cats and dogs. My experience includes dog walking, feeding, playtime, administering basic routines, and cleaning litter boxes. I’ve especially worked with older cats and dogs, so I understand the extra patience, attentiveness, and gentle care they often need. I also have two cats of my own back home, giving me firsthand experience in daily responsibilities and expectations of being a pet owner. Because of this, I’m very mindful about my care towards your pet! I’m currently a second-year, first-generation student at CU Boulder, balancing school and a Work-Study position. I’m generally available Thursday through Monday after 1 PM and can be flexible with advance notice. When I house sit I treat every home with respect, focusing on your pet while you’re away. I understand leaving your home and furry friend to a stranger can be worrisome so I do my best to comfort your pet and keep your space the way you like it.

“My little guy is a tough cookie to crack. He is a bit worried and stand off-ish with new people. Thank you Izzy for being as calm and patient as you were with him! He came around to you ❣️”
About: I was Humane Society volunteer, even if briefly. I've also been a pet owner for 15 years, with one dog named DuDu, who was a Black Labrador I am available practically always, with the primary exception being Wednesday nights, since I have guitar lessons that day. But other than that, I am indeed available, since even my volunteering work is irregular and voluntary I have a fenced yard or have the dog kept on a leash. I make sure the environment is hazard free, and keep the dog away from other animals.
“Brad has been an amazing dog walker. I (unfortunately) sometimes request last minute and Brad has been so accommodating and communicative! My dog loves him and he’s been a huge help. Thanks Brad you’re great!”
“Can't say enough good things about Ona!, their schedule is very flexible and they work with me with last minute requests and do a wonderful job. My beautiful little dog is always super happy when I come home and not too too fully energetic.”
About: I love animals but I unfortunately travel too much to have pets. I understand that pets need attention and care which is why I don’t have one for myself but I would love to support other pets and make sure pets are getting the care they need. Im like the cool aunt for pets. I grew up in a house with lots of cats and dogs and have done a few dog siting jobs here and there. Your pets will be in great care with me. I’m great at walking! Just finished walking 2000+ miles from Mexico to Canada. I’m currently working at Snowbird and have very limited hours at the beginning of the season. I should have lots of days off available to provide care. I am aware of safety when walking I will make sure your pet is not close to the road or any danger. I will also make sure your pet doesn’t get away. Growing up I had a dog that loved to run away and I’m very aware of how dogs/cats can be when getting out of the house.
About: Hi there! All my life I have been an animal lover and for the last 8 years I have raised my own dog, and taken care of other dogs for families I used to babysit for. I can fit in any lifestyle your pet has, whether they are active or a stay-at-home. I can fit any accommodation as I work from home, love to exercise (so your dog would get plenty of it, if need be), and I'm incredibly flexible and will be normally free to help you more than not. At the same time, I raised my dog since she was a puppy so I do have experience with younger, more energetic dogs and overall I would simply love to help and treat your dogs like family. I hope we can talk soon! I'm super flexible and work from home at the moment so I basically can take care of your dogs whenever you may need it. I will certainly be more free for your dog rather than not! I will care for your pet in your home however you see fit. I do what is asked and can fit any accommodation whether your dog has a lot of needs, or simply needs a walk and some playtime. I'm happy to help however it may be!
About: I love dogs (and cats!) of all personalities and especially love being active with them, such as going on hikes or jogs, playing fetch, or simply hanging out at the park. I love getting to know each animal's unique personality and learning what makes them them! I am available outside of the following hours: 2-4:30pm Monday-Friday, 5:30-7pm Mondays and Thursdays, and 4-6pm on Wednesdays. Other than these times, I am free to be booked! I have a large, fenced in yard with no other pets, which is great if your pet has trouble around other animals. I also live very close to North Boulder park! And when I am caring for your animal at your home, I am mindful of private spaces and boundaries, and I always make sure to entirely clean up after myself.
About: Have experience with small dogs (6-15 lbs), large dogs (40-60 lbs), including an extra large dog with special needs (blind and deaf great dane).

“Rachel is not only an extraordinary pet sitter, but she is an extraordinary person. Kind and delightful. She was wonderful with Buddha Bear and sent us lots of "Pupdates" of their walks, feeding, and hanging out in the yard. I know Bear had a great time. It was a bit challenging for us because we moved to the area less than two weeks ago, so we know our dog may be a little anxious at the moment with the move and everything that comes with it. Rachael was so patient with him, and he stayed with her while she was working. I couldn't speak more highly of her. I know Buddha Bear really loved her.”
“Georgia was super accommodating with our last minute booking and took such good care of our fur babies! She sent photos and kept us updated throughout the stay. Would highly recommend!”
“Julia is an absolute gem!! 💎 She greeted Kaya at her door and before I even had her bag out, she’d found Kaya’s favorite spot to be petted! I felt so comfortable knowing my girl was with a wonderful pet sitter, it helped make my weekend that much better. The communication was great - the photos and video of her enjoying her best life with Julia’s dog 🐶 and out walking made me smile and know I made the best decision for her. Highly recommend!!”
“Fred and Kim were so great with Nancy! This was my first time boarding her and they made her feel incredibly comfortable and welcome in a new space. They sent updates which I greatly appreciated as well.”
About: I have owned and cared for dogs my entire life, and my friends always joke that my dogs live better lives than most humans. We recently lost one of our pups, so our other dog Louie, could definitely use some new four-legged friends around the house. I’m very active typically walking 3-6 miles a day around Boulder, and we have a large backyard and a loving, dog friendly home where pups are treated like family. pet care fits naturally into my everyday routine. I’m very active and typically walking 3-6 miles a day around Boulder, so getting outside for walks, playtime, and fresh air is already a big part of my day. I work from home often, which gives me plenty of flexibility for feeding, bathroom breaks, attention, and keeping pups company throughout the day. my home is very dog friendly, comfortable, and welcoming, with a large backyard for plenty of supervised outdoor time and play. Dogs are treated like part of the family here, and I’m attentive to each pups normal routine, feeding schedule, personality, and comfort level. I always prioritize a safe, calm environment and make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while they’re with me.
“Buoy was happy and well taken care of while staying with Sidney! She is so flexible on drop off and pick up times. I was so thankful. Always willing to send pictures and updates. Very quick to respond to messages. We will be rebooking a stay soon! So thankful to have a place that Buoy is happy to go to while I’m out of town. The pack that she has welcomed him in seamlessly :)”
About: My dog is my top priority, and yours will be too! I’m able to take your dog on hikes, runs, and have some fun time with my almost 2 year old husky/heeler mix. Lots of cuddles, exercise, and fun time, while ensuring proper dog to dog boundaries. I have experience caring for dogs from puppies to seniors. I work from home full time, and so am able to provide care for your pets throughout the day. I am unable to care for dogs under 1 year old. Additionally your dog must be: 1) dog friendly, with no history of aggression towards dogs 2) people friendly 3) house trained 4) sleeps through the night I have a fenced yard and one playful two year old husky/heeler mix. Care can include yard play time, leashed walks, hikes, or runs, depending on the needs of your dog! I am also able to keep up with training and obedience with your dog, whether that includes reactivity, leash walking, jumping etc. A meet and greet is required before I am able to book new dogs.
“My older dog Santo did well with Jacqueline's gentle care. She understood his limitations, especially regarding heat. He had plenty of toys, and was able to play with her well behaved dogs. Jacqueline runs a tight ship, which I appreciate.”
“Amy was great to work with! She gave Dixie a lot of love and attention with lots of updates! You can tell she loves dogs and is attentive to details. Would definitely recommend and would leave my girl with her anytime!”
“Cole and his son did an excellent job taking care of our puppy, Siggi. Cole sent regular pictures and updates and was very easy to communicate with. We highly recommend him and will definitely book with him again.”
“Noah was amazing with our little Lhasapoo, Gus. Within 90 minutes of dropping Gus off, Noah sent a photo of Gus curled up on a dog bed with Noah's little dog, Finley. This was a shock to see since Gus is easily intimidated by other dogs as a result of a very traumatic attack by three dogs 5 yrs. ago in another state. Noah subsequently sent several more pictures of Gus, Finley, and another small dog together. This made me so happy to see! Noah was also very understanding and accommodating when we had to adjust our travel plans three times for various reasons, including encountering an unexpected snow storm. I've already booked Gus's next stay with Noah (and Finley). : )”
“Alex and Jeffery were wonderful with our Bella! Such a sweet family they gave Bella lots of love and care! We knew she was well taking care of had great walks and was deeply loved. We felt so comfortable leaving the country knowing she was in such capable and caring hands. They have an incredibly large backyard so lots of room to run and play. We loved the photo updates and knowing how Bella was doing. I highly recommend them. She will be back with them again soon!”
“Sophie was awesome, she did a great job communicating with me, and handled a last minute, slightly scattered booking like a boss. Bruno loved being at the house, and I will definitely be reaching out when I’m in Boulder again!”
“Liliana was excellent in taking care of our dog on short notice. Frequent walks and updates on how he was doing were punctual and informative. A truly caring boarder that I highly recommend.”
“Madeline took wonderful care of George during our wedding weekend! We needed some extra help since George was a part of our big day. Maddy helped make sure that George was exercised, and then transferred to our wedding day handler. George had a great time, we had a bunch of pictures that made us feel good and everything was super smooth. Would 100% recommend!”
“My dog spent a wonderful weekend with Christine and her calm and sweet-natured pup. Christine did a wonderful job getting her exercised and reported with regular updates on how she was doing with pics included. When I picked my dog up on Sunday, she was happy, well fed and ready to come home. I'd recommend Christine to anyone for a caring and communicative dogsitter.”
“Kimberly was great with our dog. He can be anxious and shy, but quickly warmed up to her! She sent many great photos of him throughout the stay. We would definitely leave Archie with her again.”
“We had a great experience with Alex. He is very kind and is a dog lover. He was great with communication and drop off pickup and being flexible with our times. He let us enjoy our trip but sent a few messages and took amazing photos of our dog Chip. He was thoughtful and gave us some prints and a magnet of his photography of our cutie pup Chip. We will definitely be using Alex again. Thank you!”
“Elise sent plenty of pictures and took excellent care of my dog. Would highly recommend her, and plan on using her rover services again in the future!”
“Katherine & Andrew were so great and I hope to hire them again. They took my dog on a bunch of adventures and took great care of her. Lots of great pictures and communication throughout the week. They also picked her up and dropped her off, which was a big help. I’ll definitely be recommending them to my neighbors and friends nearby.”
