“Georgia watched our two dogs for the week of Thanksgiving and we returned to calm, happy, well cared for pups. Georgia is an obvious dog lover, has a wonderful home/space to keep your dogs and is genuinely a kind and communicative person! I highly recommend this sitter! We will definitely be back!”
“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!”
“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.”
“By all accounts Maple had a great time with Fred! I enjoyed the pictures and could tell she was in a dog lovers home! Peace of mind, while out of town, is priceless.”
“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.”
“Care was excellent. Puppies were very happy. I felt confident and with my dogs in their hands, champ and Woody will be returning. The dogs were well taken care of. Woody isn't always the easiest dog but they had a plan and were very intentional with him. Gave me the confidence to enjoy my vacation”
“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.”
“Delane is great! Everything you'd want in a host- very responsive, flexible about timing for drop off and pick up, and a genuine animal lover. She sent adorable pictures of Gerry during his stay. I will definitely use Delane again to watch Gerry, and would recommend her to others.”
“Brooke was absolutely outstanding! From the moment we met, it was clear she genuinely loves dogs, and Scout took to her immediately. Throughout the stay, she provided thoughtful updates, plenty of photos, and gave me complete peace of mind knowing he was in such caring and capable hands. She treated Scout like he was her own, paying attention to his routine, making sure he got plenty of exercise, affection, and personalized care. I came home to a happy, relaxed dog, which says everything about the quality of care she provided. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and recommend her without reservation to anyone looking for the very best care for their pet. Thank you, Brooke!”
“This was Hugo’s first stay with Noah. He was very communicative and sent multiple pictures every day letting me know how he was doing. Hugo came home very tired but very content. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Sophia was great!! Helped us out by taking care of our pup jojo on our wedding night. We knew he was in great hands and could let loose without any stress. Will definitely book with her again. Her dog Ziggy is a sweetheart and got along with ours great :)”
“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.”
“I cannot recommend Curtis enough. We received professional service that I could tell his heart is really into. Our dog was cared for extremely well! I will have no hesitation booking with Curtis in the future.”
“salmon had a great time at Madeline’s, she got her out to enjoy the snow and sent us lots of updates. Madeline clearly cares a lot and is a great sitter.”
“Della is fantastic! We trust her completely to care for our anxious pup. She is very responsible and in addition to helping him with training, she has helped him socialize with other dogs very well. We have booked her repeatedly and now our dog practically runs to her place because he is so excited to stay with her!”
“Barbara was absolutely wonderful and took great care of Kona along with her husband and their dog, Mel! Barbara sent a batch of photos and a report of their activities each day and we knew that our chocolate lab was getting plenty of exercise and also made a new friend with Mel. Lots of ball and walk and swim and play. They live in a great spot in Boulder with quiet trails surrounding them. We knew that Kona was safe, loved and also entertained. Really a great experience. Thank you Barbara and Julian!”
“Kristina provided a warm and caring environment for Mozart. She was receptive to his current dietary needs and was in touch frequently. Kristina's 2 dogs were friendly and easy going.”
“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!”

“Falecia is a fantastic pet sitter and I highly recommend her services. She took care of our older male cat for four days recently. Initially, Falecia was responsive when I contacted her and immediately set up a meet and greet. She was timely for the meeting, very professional, listened carefully, had a number of good questions for me and was willing to help with watering and mail while we were away. She sent updates with photos and videos daily. She interacted with my kitty by bringing in a laser pointer for him to chase around. I felt very confident that he was well cared for”
“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 :)”
About: currently a vet assistant an all cat clinic, and i’m an over all overly enthusiastic cat lady and mama. i’ve had experience in a cat shelter, and on the daily with senior kitties, diabetics, kittens, as well as shy and spicy babies. here for you and all of your cats needs! 🐈⬛ can administer meds orally, subcutaneously, etc. 🩹
“First off, If I could give Bridgett 100 gold stars, I would do that. She was amazing and my cranky old lady cat instantly fell in love with her. I've never felt so comfortable with someone I didn't know well in my house. When she showed up for our meet and greet, she took detailed notes and asked questions for clarification. She seemed to understand cats and needs of a senior cat very well. My cat had some special needs as far as medications and her routine went with her kidney disease diet. Bridgett understood that. Everyday Bridgett gave me a detailed update( she asked what I would prefer and this was my preference ).followed by pictures of my cat adoring her. She gave me her dietary and bathroom habits in full detail. That made me feel very comforted knowing she was in good hands. Her water was clean and fresh when I came home. And I found to my delight, that underneath my cats heated bed Bridgett added an extra blanket under and around the bed. Top notch. She saved my bacon by being able to pet sit for me last minute, when my other sitter cancelled. I can't say enough about her service and care. Don't pass her by!”
About: I understand the responsibility that comes with taking care of your beloved pet and want to be there to support and love on your dog. I pride myself on my compassion, love, and understanding of all pets and their unique needs. I am a college student that loves to work with animals. I have classes during the day but am available in the early mornings, afternoons and evenings to take care of your pets. I am also available on weekends and for overnight care. I understand the concern that may come with leaving your pet with a stranger and take careful consideration in to making sure that doors are closed behind me, safety hazards are removed from the pets reach, and a high level of attentiveness while on walks.
“We so appreciate Wenqi looking after our cat Reba!! Wenqi was thoughtful, communicative and clearly knowledgeable. Reba was in such wonderful hands!! Would happily have Wenqi watch our cat again :)”
“Olivia was great! She came through for me at the last minute, let me know how my cats were doing while I was gone and followed instructions perfectly. My house was clean and well taken care of when I got home.”
About: Hello! My name is Mikayla, and I am a freelance dancer and part-time pointe shoe fitter. I’m hoping to spend time with your cat in my free time! I am a huge cat lover. Besides caring for my own cat of 18 years, I’ve been entrusted with friends’, roommates’, and neighbors’ furry companions. This includes overnight stays and drop-ins to provide meals, cuddles, playtime, and more! My own cat has hyperthyroidism, so I’m familiar with administering oral medication—even to the most stubborn kitties!
About: I adore cats and I've had several growing up and as an adult. I feel like they are so soulful and make humans their best versions. I am familiar with medication administration and dealing with all sorts of personalities. I love cuddlers but also respect cats that like their space. I love all ages and can play a lot with your kitten or just chill with your elderly feline friend!
“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: I've taken care of dogs, cats, chickens, and bunnies for the past ten years! I have experiencing taking care of animals while house sitting for long stretches of time. I love getting outside, walking, and running with dogs! I am reliable, gentle, and love getting to share new connections with animals. It would be so great to take care of your animal babies! I'm currently in grad school but have significant room for walking, dropping in, and overnight stays. My schedule is mostly busy during the days on Tuesday and Thursday, but I have time in the morning, evening, and afternoons. I stick to what each owner/parent prefers. As for my dog, he is really good about recall so we are able to let him run around the backyard without fencing. When we walk on trail he is mostly on leash unless we are in the backcountry. Again, I stick to what each owner prefers for their animal baby!
About: I truly love my client’s pets as if they were my mine! I’m unable to have pets of my own in my living situation so it’s fun for me to be able to have the spare time to take care of your furry family members while you are away at work or on vacation. I have provided pet sitting, drop in, and dog walking services for several different breeds and ages. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible while you are away by keeping consistent routines with feeding, walks, and play times. I absolutely love working with and taking care of animals. I’m here to answer/address any questions/concerns you may have and I look forward to meeting them and you soon!
“You couldn’t ask for a more responsible, reliable, and caring dog sitter. As soon as we did a meet & greet, it was clear how good Melissa was with dogs, & our dogs adored her. She sent me pictures & updates all day. I will absolutely be contacting her again for any pet sitting needs.”

“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!!!

About: I’ve always loved being around and caring for dogs! I’ve had a dog of my own for almost my whole life, who I care for on the daily. When a friend is in need of a dog sitter they come to me and I care for their pup like my own! I am home very often on a daily basis so I have lots of time to spend with your pet and care for their needs! This leaves plenty of time for play and attention. I have a big fenced in yard where the dog can run and play along with my energetic 4 year old dog. Your pet can be crated if needed/desired but is welcome on the furniture just like my dog!
“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.”
About: I’m active, work from home, and a dog-lover. I have a flexible work from home schedule, so your pup gets consistent attention, frequent bathroom breaks, and never long stretches alone. I share my home with Mabel, my 4-year-old golden retriever. We're outside every day on local trails, dog-friendly hikes, and the dog park across the street. Mabel is friendly and welcoming to all pups. No yard, but Boulder is our backyard. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and I treat every pup like my own. Your dog will get personal attention, plenty of activity, and a flexible routine that works for them. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. Happy to coordinate with you to ensure your dog’s needs are met. Able to step out with your pup for bathroom breaks whenever needed. I don’t have a yard, but my golden retriever needs exercise each day. We’re outside every day on local trails, dog-friendly hikes, and the dog park across the street. Boulder is our backyard!
About: I have had a passion for animal care and providing companionship with them since I was a very small child. I have been doing this for 20 years now and there's nothing that I would rather do than spend time with cats and dogs. I work from home so I have a lot of availability to be with your pets. I am single with no children and a huge passion to be with animals. I have a three story town home and I'm surrounded by nature trails and all sorts of paths. I have a dog park right behind me and surrounded by nature trails that the Pet's absolutely love. Also very close to Valmont Dog Park!
“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: 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.
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’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.
“Olivia was so accommodating with my dog. He is usually anxious with leaving me but he was happy to be there when we dropped him off. Will definitely use them again in the future”
“I’ve been a reoccurring client of Christine’s. She’s been a great pet sitter and friend to my pup. Christine is always accommodating and communicative. I receive several photos, videos and check-ins throughout each visit. I recommend Christine for any pet needs. My pup is always excited to see her and comes home tired from a full day of hikes, walks and play!”
About: Hello! My partner, our 2.5 year old daughter, and I live in Niwot on about an acre — 25% is fenced. We have a 20 lb female Sheepadoodle, Elsa, who sleeps inside at nights but spends most afternoons in the backyard sunbathing (at her leisure) — and although doesn’t love playing with other dogs, is very accepting of sharing her space. Our daughter (and we!) love having dogs play in the yard and evening neighborhood dog walks — so thought we would open our home to other pups. We also have the ability to separate the dogs if your pup prefers their own space (in the yard or sunroom). We have had animals (together and individually) for our entire lives and are very able to make your dog feel at home. My partner works full-time from home, and I work a hybrid schedule. Aside from weekends where we leave the house for 4ish hours at a time, someone will always be home and able to check on the dogs. We can board dogs overnight or for day visits. The dogs will be free to be in our yard, sunroom, or on the main floor at night. Open to setting up a crate, as needed. Also, can feed as often as necessary.
“Bretta is incredible! She was so patient and caring for my pup during his stays with her. He was extremely anxious but she was able to help him feel secure while I was away. She did an excellent job of checking in and trying methods to help my dog. We were so lucky to find her and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly caring sitter and an overall quality stay!”
About: Hello! I’m a retired Special Education teacher. My passion is dogs and the care and training of dogs. When your furr baby is staying with me, she or he is my priority. I am patient, caring and truly want your furr baby to have a safe, engaging and fun time while in my care. I’d love to take your furr baby for walks and/ or give cuddles; as desired. I first became available on Rover in 2017, first working in California and now in Colorado. I work full-time at home and will give your sweet furr baby all the time, care and exercise he or she needs. I’m currently at home full-time. I have plenty of time for your furr baby Please schedule pickup & drop-off times between 7am - 9:30pm. Thank you. I have two dogs and two cats. One dog is a friendly, small-sized older dog. He is calm and will engage with your furr baby as much as they want. I also have a large breed female dog. She is sweet, curious and well-behaved. I have four available crates if you use crating. The cats have separate areas and mostly stay in their own room during dog boarding.
“Rui and her partner did a great job caring for my dog with separation anxiety. They were very accommodating and easy to work with. Rui was very communicative throughout the stay, sending pictures and a report card of their day together. It is a relief to know that I can trust them to meet the special needs of my dog. I recommend them and will be using their services again myself too!”

About: I have been sitting through Rover since 2021 and have truly enjoyed spending time with so many pets! I've sat big dogs, little dogs, cats, fish, and sugar gliders! I feel that through Rover I have excelled in adapting quickly to a variety of pet's needs. I’m currently living in the Boulder/Longmont Colorado area and am open to book sits around north Denver. I just moved here from Orlando Florida. When I lived in Orlando, if I had spare time, I liked to drive rescue transports for ORCA, Greyhounds in Motion, and Orlando Pet Alliance. If you have suggestions of rescue transports I can drive for in the northwest Denver area please let me know! My current work schedule is working remotely, so for any house sit requests, please ensure there is space for me to set up my laptop and take work video calls. I’ll have studying to do in the evenings and on the weekends so your pets can keep me company while I do schoolwork ☺️ I'm good at adapting to you and your pet's needs! I'll give them love, care, and attention if they want it, but will respect them if they prefer not to be pet (we all know those cats 😄)
“My dog is so happy and healthy when I get home. Kristen takes great care and sends feedback and photos, so I know my pup is doing well when I’m gone for the day.”
“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!”
“Abbi is great! She has been suoer helpful walking our dog and our friends dog. Communication is quick and clear, scheduling is easy, and she is super careful with her attention to detail! You’re pet will be in great hands with Abbi.”
About: I am a responsible college student who loves all kinds of dogs. I have grown up with dogs my entire life and have experience with large breed puppies to small senior dogs. I'm also an athlete, so I can be an especially good fit for energetic and strong dogs. I have also spent time volunteering at the humane society. I am currently home for the summer so my schedule is very flexible. My mornings are generally busier, but I can adapt to your needs on most days. The safety and happiness of your pet is my first priority, so I prefer to stick to familiar areas and will pay close attention to your pet's cues. If your dog enjoys exercise or activities, I am also able to go on runs, play, or explore new places with them.

About: I have experience with large breed dogs. I previously owned a ridgeback and would frequently run or hike with her. I have flexibility to walk a dog several times throughout the day. I also can work on training if needed. I am flexible to board a dog Friday - Monday. I am available for dog walks all week. I wake up early so morning walks are not a problem. I prioritize making sure the dog is at ease. I want to make sure they get enough mental, physical, and social stimulation. I am comfortable boarding.
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’ve been dog sitting for a year for a 1-year-old, now 2 years old, lab puppy. I am offering walks, drop in visits, and day care. I mostly work from home as I finish up nursing school, so I am often free for care! I only work twice a week and will be free entirely for the next few months as I study for my NCLEX for nursing. Pet care would be a happy distraction and a great use of my free time! I always give 100% of my attention to the animals I care for and love taking them for walks and playing outside! I am always sure to bring a toy and make the animal feel as comfortable as possible with a new friend.
“Bri is amazing! Our Australian Shepherd and Havanese Mix Rescue have grown to love her. Our rescue tends to be a bit hard to connect with, but Bri has been wonderful, taking the time and having the patience to make him feel safe. It truly is wonderful to have someone that cares for our pups like we do!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with dogs, having grown up with them since birth. I’ve also frequently pet-sat for neighbors and friends, handling everything from walks to feeding and cleaning up. I love dogs so much and walk a lot every day and I would love to have a dog to walk as well! I am a senior at San Diego State and am a full-time student but I only go to campus Monday Wednesday and Friday! I have lots of free time in the mornings and late afternoons! When caring for a dog in a client's home, I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment. I maintain a routine that the dog is familiar with, ensuring their surroundings feel secure and stress-free. I follow any specific care instructions provided by the owner, keeping their home clean and the pet well-fed, exercised, and content. My goal is to create a great experience for both the dog and their owner, providing peace of mind that their pet is in good hands.
About: I was absolutely obsessed with my late bulldog and toy poodle. Raising them and spending time with them each day was so much fun and fulfilling. I have been dog sitting, cat sitting and house sitting since I was 12. All through high school and both of my college degrees I continued to dog sit. I'd feel lucky to be trusted to hang out with yours! I am extremely active and love when I can exercise with a pup. Hike? Neighborhood walk? Dog park? Sounds great! I work from home with great flexibility and have holidays off of work since I work in education. Let me know what type of schedule suits your fur baby best! I have a large backyard and a deck. Let me know how your dog best is accommodated. I've had dogs who needed to be in their crated in a new environment and others who wanted to sleep in my room or the couch. However is totally fine with me!
About: I love spending time with animals! I've been in the farm & ranch world for over 15 years and have experience working with dogs, cats, cows, goats, horses, chickens, etc. Animals bring me joy & I love learning from them. I spend most of my free time with my 9 year old rescue dog Luna where we explore the beauty around us. I am happy to lend a hand and help out if you feel like its a compatible fit. I am very responsible, dedicated and genuinely enjoy the companionship of animals. I can offer photos of your dog(s), tons of love, kindness and alot of attention. I really want to ensure that your needs are met and that you feel supported and at ease while away at work, a night out or vacation. I live on a ranch with fenced in pastures & have a gate that closes to main road. I am able to ensure a secure place.

“Georgia watched our two dogs for the week of Thanksgiving and we returned to calm, happy, well cared for pups. Georgia is an obvious dog lover, has a wonderful home/space to keep your dogs and is genuinely a kind and communicative person! I highly recommend this sitter! We will definitely be back!”
“By all accounts Maple had a great time with Fred! I enjoyed the pictures and could tell she was in a dog lovers home! Peace of mind, while out of town, is priceless.”
“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.”
“Care was excellent. Puppies were very happy. I felt confident and with my dogs in their hands, champ and Woody will be returning. The dogs were well taken care of. Woody isn't always the easiest dog but they had a plan and were very intentional with him. Gave me the confidence to enjoy my vacation”
“This was Hugo’s first stay with Noah. He was very communicative and sent multiple pictures every day letting me know how he was doing. Hugo came home very tired but very content. 10/10 would recommend.”
“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.”
“salmon had a great time at Madeline’s, she got her out to enjoy the snow and sent us lots of updates. Madeline clearly cares a lot and is a great sitter.”
“Della is fantastic! We trust her completely to care for our anxious pup. She is very responsible and in addition to helping him with training, she has helped him socialize with other dogs very well. We have booked her repeatedly and now our dog practically runs to her place because he is so excited to stay with her!”
“Barbara was absolutely wonderful and took great care of Kona along with her husband and their dog, Mel! Barbara sent a batch of photos and a report of their activities each day and we knew that our chocolate lab was getting plenty of exercise and also made a new friend with Mel. Lots of ball and walk and swim and play. They live in a great spot in Boulder with quiet trails surrounding them. We knew that Kona was safe, loved and also entertained. Really a great experience. Thank you Barbara and Julian!”
“Kristina provided a warm and caring environment for Mozart. She was receptive to his current dietary needs and was in touch frequently. Kristina's 2 dogs were friendly and easy going.”
“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!”
About: I absolutely love dogs. All dogs, period. I have a deep understanding of each dog's unique needs, quirks, and preferences, and I make sure to give a tailored experience that goes beyond routine tasks. I strive to create a home away from home for your dogs and make sure they are comfortable as well as you. I currently work in the early afternoons with two days off during the week with full availability. I am an early bird and can be there for your dog as early as 6:30am until about 12:00pm. Safe Space: Designate a specific area or room for the pet, providing them with a sense of security. Exercise and Playtime: Engage in regular play sessions and take your pet for walks or provide a secure outdoor space for them to explore. Social Interaction: Spend quality time with your pet to prevent loneliness and anxiety. Provide toys and enrichment activities to keep them mentally stimulated. Emergency Plan: Be prepared for emergencies by having a first aid kit and knowing the location of the nearest veterinary clinic.
“My dog loves Cole & his family! This was my dog’s second stay with them and I can tell they take great care of her because she was so excited to see them again! Thank you Cole!”
“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.”
“Sarah took wonderful care of our dog over the weekend! She took the time to meet with him and understand his medical needs, and he had a wonderful time at her house playing with her pup and her sweet girls :) We definitely hope to book with her again!”
“Mary is a wonderful pet sitter and was great with our dog while we were away for over a week. We had several communications during our trip and we were assured all was well. The accommodations and care provided resulted in a seamless transition for our dog in both his coming and going. There was no adjustment and no worry of kennel cough or other problems. He received daily exercise, rest and attention from his sitter. We will no doubt use Mary again!”
“Meghan and Hakon are amazing and loved on our pups so much! It was Kinzie’s first stay away and they made her feel so at ease and comfortable in their home. Lincoln is a pro and had a blast. We got plenty of updates and photos and knew our dogs were in great hands. Lincoln and Kinzie look forward to their next stay!”
