“Amy was amazing with my little Sola. She (& her dog Jackson) made her feel at home with walks, cuddles, and attention, and, me at ease, it being my first time using Rover. I would highly recommend Amy to anyone and their dog.”
“Erin and family were fantastic with Luka. They sent pictures so I could see that Lu was romping in the local dog park, getting in the water, playing all day with pepper and snuggling with her clan in the evenings. When I picked her up, she was happy as can be and was sacked out for days recovering from play. I highly recommend this sitter!!!! Thanks Erin!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my enthusiasm and love to create connections with all animals as if they were my own with the best pet care provided. Open to all animals but most experience with dogs that need exercise in the mornings and afternoons. We can make it work! I work some nights doing pizza delivery and some mornings snow plowing during the week. All in all, most days are available! I have a big enough car to pick up a lot of animals for walks. I am very reliable in getting to and from a clients home on time and ready to work.
“She was a rockstar from day one to the moment we picked our dog up, she has been nothing but maternal and sweet with our baby throughout these days. Regularly we would received multiple photos and pictures and it was clear from the beginning that our dog was not left alone for a single moment he was either with her jack Russell or at her job at the radio station he even came back with a cute plaid jacket. because she was worried about him getting cold in those frigid Aspen nights. we would highly recommend lauri!!!”
About: Hi there! I just moved to Aspen from Dallas and would love to hang out with your pet! I’ve grown up around dogs and love them so much!

Totally available on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. Message me and we can figure out something that works! I live in a house by the aiport that has a dog park in a very walkable neighborhood. I am happy to take care of your pet in my home or in yours, wherever your dog is more comfortable!
“They are amazing dog sitters and the reason we could enjoy the great hikes in Aspen. Lucky had a great time with them. Thank you so much for accommodating our schedules.”
“Kristine, her darling son Arthur and mom Nina, were the most incredible sitters! Our Goldendoodle and Pomeranian were so happy, completely spoiled, and loved their time with all of them and Nina's sweet puppy Ari. Kristine was wonderful with her communication, and sent pictures and videos every day so we knew our pups were so happy. I can't say enough wonderful things about Kristine; she is an angel, loves dogs, the sweetest lady, and went over and beyond with our pups! They enjoyed all their walks and hikes, and loved being pampered by them all. Thank you Kristine, Nina and sweet Arthur for taking care of our fur babies! She is the absolute best! Many, many thanks and we are so happy to have found an amazing sitter for our pups in Aspen. With much gratitude and appreciation, Kat, Mochi and Kodi”
About: I have a 8 year old chocolate lab that loves all other dogs. I’ve spent a lot of time with all different breeds, just looking to expand who I am sitting for. Im a crew lead for the USFS here in the valley so my schedule changes from time to time. Can provide care after 5:30pm when working Your pet would be more than safe with me. I can provide socializing with my pup, lots of exercise, and whatever else is needed for them to be happy and comfortable!
“Demetria and Jonathan took such great care of Ham and we couldn’t be more grateful! He was given lots of love, pets, walks, and time laying around in their fenced backyard (which he LOVES to do). Truly felt that they treated him like he was one of their own and that’s the most you can hope for from a dog sitter. He barely wanted to even leave when we came to pick him up 😂 that shows you how kind they were to him!”
“Megan was wonderful to our dog, who is older and needs special attention. She sent lots of photos and updates to ease our minds while being away. We could tell when we picked him up, that he was well taken care of and content. I highly recommend her, and will definitely take our dog to her again when we're in her area.”
About: In addition to owning and devoting my time to pets for decades, I am a retired special education teacher with plenty of love and patience. As a teacher, I provided dog therapy in my classrooms for nine years. I have cared for cats and dogs of all ages, including puppies and elderly dogs with health concerns. I also have experience with chickens. I am retired from teaching, and have thoroughly enjoyed spending more time with animals, while also providing a much needed service to pet owners. As a pet sitter, I offer in home pet care while families are away, and usually do only one job at a time so I can dedicate myself to your loved ones! I am open to pet sitting most days of the week and have had both short and long term pet sitting experience. I offer pet sitting in your home, which means your pets do not need to leave their environment or routine while you are away. I will follow any directions to a T!
“Jessica did an amazing job watching Ziggy! The photos she sent put me at ease knowing Ziggy was okay. I would highly recommend Jessica for dog boarding! We will be using her again when we leave town!”
About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I understand that every animal has unique needs, personalities, and routines. I’ve worked with pets of many different temperaments, behavioral challenges, and health conditions, so I’m comfortable adapting my care to ensure each pet feels safe, understood, and well cared for. I approach every sitting opportunity with a strong sense of responsibility and professionalism, while also providing genuine love, patience, and attention. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or requires extra care, I strive to create a positive and comfortable experience for both you and your pet. I am currently working in healthcare Monday-Friday 7am-4pm so weekdays are best for evening sitting or boarding pets that can handle being alone for that time. I am completely free on the weekends. I am an early riser and love to get out and enjoy the sunshine with a pet but am happy to stay close to home for pet needs. I do prefer to walk on leash as I don’t have a fenced in area and do like to ensure safety of the pets I care for and others around. There is a fenced in dog park a short walk from my apartment to let dogs run off leash if approved by owner. I don’t have any pets in my home so if I am to sit at my residence the pet would be in a secure and private environment. I keep a clean and safe household for all types of pets. I also am respectful and receptive to all household and pet needs on an individual basis.
About: I have over six years of hands-on experience caring for dogs through volunteering, fostering, and private dog sitting. I’ve worked with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors — providing walks, feeding, medication, playtime, and lots of love. I’ve also volunteered with All Aboard Animal Rescue, where I gained experience handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I always make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away, keeping their routine consistent and their tails wagging. Pet care fits smoothly into my daily routine! I have classes at 8 a.m. and 1 p.m., which still leaves me plenty of time throughout the day for walks, feeding, and playtime. I love spending my mornings and afternoons with dogs, and I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and affection. Whether it’s early walks before class or extra snuggles in the evening, I always make time for quality care. Safety and comfort are my biggest priorities when caring for dogs. In my home, I create a calm, clean space with room to play and rest. When I’m caring for dogs in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to keep routines consistent and pets feeling secure. I pay close attention to feeding times, leash safety, and environment setup to ensure every pup stays happy, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away.
“Melissa and Scott were fantastic. Charlie is on several medications and had sprained his leg before the stay, but I had no worries leaving him with them! They sent lots of pics and took the best care of him.”

“Reese is a great individual and very dependable. She did more than I asked for, she cleaned Cosmo’s litter and made sure the water level in the fountain didn’t get too low. I booked her services a bit last minute, without a meet-and-greet or anything like that, but she pulled through really well. Highly recommend her services, and I would definitely rebook her!”
“Danica was great! She took the time to meet with us beforehand, communicated promptly and clearly, and sent us photos of our cat. We could tell our cat was well taken care of and given lots of time and attention. She also left our home neat and tidy. We’d definitely recommend Danica and would welcome her back to sit for our cat.”
“amy is a fantastic sitter! she met with us for a long visit giving great attention to the care instructions. she sent daily updates with lots of photos which always eases my mind while away. it is clear that my cat was care for so well by her. she left the home in a beautifully clean state which was such a pleasure to come home to. i would hire her again & again.”
About: I have been overnight pet sitting and doing daily check ins for many years and love caring for cats. It is so rewarding when a cat decides it's ready to bond with me and hops right onto my lap.
About: I have over 6 years of experience caring for cats of all ages, from playful kittens to senior cats. What sets me apart is my patience, attention to detail, and understanding that every cat has a unique personality and needs. My experience includes feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, administering basic medications when needed, and providing a calm and stress-free environment. I am comfortable caring for shy, independent, or highly social cats and always take the time to earn their trust. I treat every cat as if they were my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your feline friend is in good hands.
“Destiny was able to check on my cat during a super last-minute trip. She was very responsive, reliable, and kept me updated throughout my time away. I would definitely book with her again!”

I will keep an eye on your pet and treat them as if they were my own. I am self employed with a flower business that keeps me busy during the summer and mostly available during the winter months. I work part time in Snowmass and thus have ample amounts of time to spend with the animals. I am attentive to the animals needs, the instructions of the pet owners, and love to spend time playing with the dogs. I also love to go for long walks with them.
“Kristy did an excellent job housesitting and taking care of our Cat with Diabetes, which required preparing and administering 2 shots of insulin at the same time the cat is fed. She kept us up to date with status updates and photos and made us feel very confident that our kitty was well taken care of. She was very respectful, clean in our home and very professional in all of our interactions; we'll reach back out to her the next time we're going out of town!”

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I grew up on a farm in the uk with cats and dogs and all of the animals. I’ve been a life long dog owner and currently have a beautiful McNab called Munro I study from home so I’m super flexible and very present with dog care. I prefer to be able to do a meet and greet prior to make sure we all connect . I prefer clients to have a fenced yard but if not then long leashed walks are also fun! Off leash is good too in the dog parks if your furry friend is good at recall.
“Jacqueline and Brad took amazing care of Pepper while I was out skiing for the day. I am so glad to have found them as an option for future day care in the valley! I could tell Pepper had a full day of activity and being social when I picked her up. I will definitely ask for their help again in the future.”
About: From a young age I connected with dogs and have loved the special bond and relationship that comes with having them as a pet and companion. I currently own a husky so I am used to dogs of all sizes (and strengths) ! I enjoy any opportunity to give my furry friends extra TLC and lots of exercise outside from long walks to hikes on the beautiful trails nearby! I live in Old Town Basalt and can easily travel from Aspen to Carbondale! I'm currently work for myself so I have a lot of freedom and flexibilty to work your schedule into mine! All I ask is for a days notice to schedule and usually we can make it work! I have a fenced yard and a 4 1/2 year old male husky who is very social and loves a buddy to play with! He gets regular walks/hikes and can be walked with or without your dog based on your preference.
About: HUGE DOG LOVER! Miss my golden like crazy - let me get my dog fix through your fur-child! If your 4 legged friend enjoys walks, baby-talk and a large un-fenced backyard in Woody Creek - I'm your girl! I co-own an oxygen company so being able to have my phone handy while walking or snuggling with your pet is important. I usually workout and have oxygen runs with a fairly fluid schedule. I tweak it by the hour. So if I would need to change my "walking" schedule due to something last minute, thats USUALLY not a problem. I live in a corner apartment attached to a home in Woody Creek, almost like a nanny apartment. Beautiful and large backyard with dog friendly folks everywhere. If I have your dog then I have your child, thats that! I prefer not to use my vehicle for your pet as I mentioned above I co-own an oxygen company so that could get messy... Medical supplies with dog hair. I usually exercise in the morning, come home around lunch and do oxygen runs in the afternoon... But of course I am flexible and this changes. My point is I come home every 4ish hours so I can walk, feed or snuggle with your baby frequently.
“Good communication and super flexible. We used Megan for daycare as we hiked close by. Jersey was well taken care of and Megan was flexible with pickup after we finished out hike. Thanks again!”
“Emma was awesome! She took great care of our 20 week old puppy and sent us many fun pictures throughout the day. I’m pretty sure our pup made a new best friend. Emma was communicative and very accommodating. We were in town for vacation but will definitely be using her again next time we’re here.”
“Paige did an amazing job watching my two mini Aussies for a day. They went on walks and were clearly well cared for, even though one decided to be shy and was a little more difficult. She did a fantastic job trying to make my shy boy feel safe and comfortable, while also not neglecting my more out going pup. Oh, and she also had two more dogs (her personal dog and one other doggy daycare client) to care for and they all seemed to be loved dearly and treated as family for the day. She was also always prompt communicating during the booking and pre-drop off period, and provided updates throughout the day. Would definitely recommend Paige and would book her again in the future for my own dogs.”
“Katie was amazing with Harper! As a first-time Rover user, I was a little nervous, but Katie immediately put me at ease. She was so friendly and welcoming, and Harper took to her right away. Katie shared the cutest photos throughout the day, took Harper on multiple walks, and clearly made her feel comfortable and included. Harper came home happy, relaxed, and completely tired out from all the fun—which is pretty much the highest compliment a lab can give. I'm so thankful our first Rover experience was with Katie and would happily trust her with Harper again in the future!”
“My senior boy Mr. Duff had a great time at Demetrias. She is clearly gentle, kind and so loving towards the dogs in her life. She showed the same care towards my own dog. She lives in a beautiful area with a great fenced in dog run. Thanks again Demetria!”

“Such wonderful & caring sitters! Destiny and her partner, Cal, watched our old Golden and gave her so much love and attention. They sent us great pics and updates while we were gone. On the last day of our trip a wildfire broke out up near our house. They saw an alert about it on their phone and didn't hesitate to go grab her and take her home with them when they couldn't get ahold of us. I'm so thankful for their dedication.”
“Jessica is SO great! Communication was easy and I felt relieved knowing my pup was well cared for while at work. I will definitely be using her again for walks and housesitting! Highly recommend her services!”
About: I am based in Carbondale, CO. I am currently pet/house sitting full time throughout the summer so I'm able to provide a high level of care for pets and homes throughout the valley! I've cared for my own dogs, roommates' dogs, friends' pets, Trusted Housesitter stays, and Rover sits over the past 10 years. I've cared for dogs from puppyhood to 13 years old. I've also cat-sat for friends, Trusted Housesitters, and Rover clients over the years. I'm happy to take them on walks, hikes, dog parks, and potty/play breaks throughout the day. The longest I've watched someone's pet was for 2 months, and I loved it! I'm also happy to take them camping if that's their jam. Feel free to reach out with any other questions! A note on transportation - In addition to my ambulance camper, I have an e-bike I often enjoy cycling throughout the valley, so parking availability at your home should not be an issue. I currently am full time pet sitting for the summer. I am very attentive and love morning, midday, fetch, and evening walks. I can take them to the dog park or on hikes, or if they're good with bikes, I can take them on even longer run/bike rides. I am very respectful and clean when staying at a client's house. I treat it like my own (if not better). I love going for walks with your pup and keeping them on a leash. I also don't give in to the cute puppy eyes when I'm eating my food and keep them to their parents' approved food and treats.
About: I’ve had several dogs since I was a kid. Currently we have 4, including one puppy. I’m used to taking care of all dog personalities, like nervous puppies, grouchy old dogs, and hyper pups. I work occasional nights about twice a week from 4:30-10 at a restaurant. I would be out of the house at that time, but I often get cut early so we can further discuss when booking. I am comfortable crating dogs. I am also used to administering pills to dogs and cats, even those who don’t love to take their medication.
About: I've always grown up with dogs and have been a dog lover my whole life. I have been house sitting and animal sitting for about 10 years now. I love spending time with dogs and making sure they're still happy while their parents are away! This is a win-win situation for both of us because your dog will be well taken care of, and I get to play with it! All fun aside, I do make sure to pay close attention and take care of each dog's individual needs. Everybody's unique so that will always be taken into account. Let me know what you need and I will make sure to help! I'm also a big fan of exercise so if you've got a dog that loves to run, lets run! I have a very open schedule, most of the time I only work at night and rarely for more than 6 hours. I can usually adjust my schedule as needed. Depending on the dog, I always take extra steps to guarantee that they stay safe. Whether that means taking extra note to make sure all doors to rooms are closed, foods are high out of reach, etc.

“Erin and family were fantastic with Luka. They sent pictures so I could see that Lu was romping in the local dog park, getting in the water, playing all day with pepper and snuggling with her clan in the evenings. When I picked her up, she was happy as can be and was sacked out for days recovering from play. I highly recommend this sitter!!!! Thanks Erin!”
“They are amazing dog sitters and the reason we could enjoy the great hikes in Aspen. Lucky had a great time with them. Thank you so much for accommodating our schedules.”
“Kristine, her darling son Arthur and mom Nina, were the most incredible sitters! Our Goldendoodle and Pomeranian were so happy, completely spoiled, and loved their time with all of them and Nina's sweet puppy Ari. Kristine was wonderful with her communication, and sent pictures and videos every day so we knew our pups were so happy. I can't say enough wonderful things about Kristine; she is an angel, loves dogs, the sweetest lady, and went over and beyond with our pups! They enjoyed all their walks and hikes, and loved being pampered by them all. Thank you Kristine, Nina and sweet Arthur for taking care of our fur babies! She is the absolute best! Many, many thanks and we are so happy to have found an amazing sitter for our pups in Aspen. With much gratitude and appreciation, Kat, Mochi and Kodi”
About: I have a 8 year old chocolate lab that loves all other dogs. I’ve spent a lot of time with all different breeds, just looking to expand who I am sitting for. Im a crew lead for the USFS here in the valley so my schedule changes from time to time. Can provide care after 5:30pm when working Your pet would be more than safe with me. I can provide socializing with my pup, lots of exercise, and whatever else is needed for them to be happy and comfortable!
“Demetria and Jonathan took such great care of Ham and we couldn’t be more grateful! He was given lots of love, pets, walks, and time laying around in their fenced backyard (which he LOVES to do). Truly felt that they treated him like he was one of their own and that’s the most you can hope for from a dog sitter. He barely wanted to even leave when we came to pick him up 😂 that shows you how kind they were to him!”
“Megan was wonderful to our dog, who is older and needs special attention. She sent lots of photos and updates to ease our minds while being away. We could tell when we picked him up, that he was well taken care of and content. I highly recommend her, and will definitely take our dog to her again when we're in her area.”
About: In addition to owning and devoting my time to pets for decades, I am a retired special education teacher with plenty of love and patience. As a teacher, I provided dog therapy in my classrooms for nine years. I have cared for cats and dogs of all ages, including puppies and elderly dogs with health concerns. I also have experience with chickens. I am retired from teaching, and have thoroughly enjoyed spending more time with animals, while also providing a much needed service to pet owners. As a pet sitter, I offer in home pet care while families are away, and usually do only one job at a time so I can dedicate myself to your loved ones! I am open to pet sitting most days of the week and have had both short and long term pet sitting experience. I offer pet sitting in your home, which means your pets do not need to leave their environment or routine while you are away. I will follow any directions to a T!
About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I understand that every animal has unique needs, personalities, and routines. I’ve worked with pets of many different temperaments, behavioral challenges, and health conditions, so I’m comfortable adapting my care to ensure each pet feels safe, understood, and well cared for. I approach every sitting opportunity with a strong sense of responsibility and professionalism, while also providing genuine love, patience, and attention. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or requires extra care, I strive to create a positive and comfortable experience for both you and your pet. I am currently working in healthcare Monday-Friday 7am-4pm so weekdays are best for evening sitting or boarding pets that can handle being alone for that time. I am completely free on the weekends. I am an early riser and love to get out and enjoy the sunshine with a pet but am happy to stay close to home for pet needs. I do prefer to walk on leash as I don’t have a fenced in area and do like to ensure safety of the pets I care for and others around. There is a fenced in dog park a short walk from my apartment to let dogs run off leash if approved by owner. I don’t have any pets in my home so if I am to sit at my residence the pet would be in a secure and private environment. I keep a clean and safe household for all types of pets. I also am respectful and receptive to all household and pet needs on an individual basis.
About: I have over six years of hands-on experience caring for dogs through volunteering, fostering, and private dog sitting. I’ve worked with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors — providing walks, feeding, medication, playtime, and lots of love. I’ve also volunteered with All Aboard Animal Rescue, where I gained experience handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I always make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away, keeping their routine consistent and their tails wagging. Pet care fits smoothly into my daily routine! I have classes at 8 a.m. and 1 p.m., which still leaves me plenty of time throughout the day for walks, feeding, and playtime. I love spending my mornings and afternoons with dogs, and I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and affection. Whether it’s early walks before class or extra snuggles in the evening, I always make time for quality care. Safety and comfort are my biggest priorities when caring for dogs. In my home, I create a calm, clean space with room to play and rest. When I’m caring for dogs in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to keep routines consistent and pets feeling secure. I pay close attention to feeding times, leash safety, and environment setup to ensure every pup stays happy, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away.
“Melissa and Scott were fantastic. Charlie is on several medications and had sprained his leg before the stay, but I had no worries leaving him with them! They sent lots of pics and took the best care of him.”
About: I have grown up with dogs of my own and lived with many animals of all sizes. I love dogs but I travel a lot and cannot have my own, unfortunately. I try to get my fix taking care of other dogs when I can! I'm a big trail runner, I take my parents dog whenever I can. He is a big river/water dog so I love taking dogs on trails with water access. I always carry plenty of water and snacks for myself and the pup. I love dogs that are high energy and need to get lots of exercise, I'll tucker them out. I can take dogs on long hikes, runs, or even quick walks. I work evenings bar tending and am available most days before 4pm. I prefer to have one dog at a time so they get proper care and I can keep track of them, especially if they are good unleashed on trails. I am flexible and love to house sit as well so I can stay where the dog is comfortable. I like to have fun with the pups! This is for my own enjoyment and your convenience!
“AJ was able to accommodate a last-minute request while we were in town for a wedding and I am so thankful that she could. It was our first time using Rover for Finn, and it was such a positive experience. She sent multiple videos of him playing with her pups. They got along so well! Highly recommend her if you’re in the Lancaster area. Our boy was exhausted from playing with his new friends all night. Thank you, AJ!”
About: HUGE DOG LOVER! Miss my golden like crazy - let me get my dog fix through your fur-child! If your 4 legged friend enjoys walks, baby-talk and a large un-fenced backyard in Woody Creek - I'm your girl! I co-own an oxygen company so being able to have my phone handy while walking or snuggling with your pet is important. I usually workout and have oxygen runs with a fairly fluid schedule. I tweak it by the hour. So if I would need to change my "walking" schedule due to something last minute, thats USUALLY not a problem. I live in a corner apartment attached to a home in Woody Creek, almost like a nanny apartment. Beautiful and large backyard with dog friendly folks everywhere. If I have your dog then I have your child, thats that! I prefer not to use my vehicle for your pet as I mentioned above I co-own an oxygen company so that could get messy... Medical supplies with dog hair. I usually exercise in the morning, come home around lunch and do oxygen runs in the afternoon... But of course I am flexible and this changes. My point is I come home every 4ish hours so I can walk, feed or snuggle with your baby frequently.
