“One of the most amazing sitters we’ve ever had for our baby girl. She kept us up to date daily, and a sent pics of our girl enjoying herself. Can’t thank her enough for making us feel comfortable ensuring us our Cinnamon was in good hands. She deserves the five stars plus some.”

“We’ve booked with Tanya a few times now, and she’s great! This time we had to book on super short notice, and we’re so thankful she was available. Our dog Ike has a great time with her, and we know he’s taken care of there. Tanya shares photos and gives us peace of mind while we’re away ☺️”

“Recommend! Sarah was great! We met ahead for the dogs to meet. She sent pics and updates often. She even brought our dog home after our long trip. I will definitely be using Sarah again.”
“Josh and Lindsay took great care of Talia, our retired racing greyhound. She was pooped when she came home with all of the activity with their dogs. They sent the cutest daily pictures of her.”
“Kimberly was great! I was boarding my dog with her from August 19–25, and on the way to drop off I realized I had forgotten my ID at home and had to turn around, which made me pretty late. She was super understanding and flexible about it, which I really appreciated. She took great care of my dog, kept me updated while I was away, and made the whole experience easy and stress-free. I had a really positive experience and would definitely book with Kimberly again. Highly recommend!”

“I had Charlie watch my dogs for about a week, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! She took great care of them, made sure they got plenty of exercise and daily walks, and kept them entertained and happy throughout the week. It was clear that she genuinely cared about them, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. I would absolutely recommend Charlie to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets!”
“Stephen took great care of our dog and we'd definitely recommend him or use him again. We have a very high-energy aussie, and Stephen and his wife took him on plenty of walks and sent us pictures every day. They were accomodating when our flight had to be rescheduled and we extended our dog's stay by one day. They also accommodated his fresh food diet, which is fairly high maintenance and requires freezing and dethawing his food in advance. Their dog door was very convenient for our dog to use who is used to letting himself out on his own schedule, and they have a large backyard for the dogs to run around. Thanks again, Stephen!”
“Kristy & Nathan are great pet sitters for Wynnie. They send photos and updates throughout her stay and make her feel so engaged with walks and playtime.”

Have come back home twice now to our cats happy and the litters and food areas clean. Her schedule is also great and haven't had issues locking in visits over two long trips.”

“Once again, Jillian did an amazing job taking care of my kitties. She updated me thoroughly and took many pictures while I was away. She was great with my shy cat. She’s always extremely trustworthy and great at what she does.”
About: Cats have always been a huge part of my life. They will always have a huge place in my heart. With 2 1/2 years of Veterinary experience, I am very understanding of cat body language. Cats show signs of illness in ways most don't notice. Luckily, I know how to read and interpret those signs. Senior cats, cats with specific needs, and medication are not problem for me! While working as a Veterinary Assistant, I fostered 3 litters of infant kittens. From bottle feeding, litter box training to finding them their forever homes! I am very understanding that most kitties tend to be skittish around new people. I know how to be in the presence of nervous cats, and gain their trust! Cats are one of my specialities, as well as my favorite animal! I can assure you, I will love your cats just as much as you do!
“Trevor has watched our cats, Mira and Wren, twice and he’s been fantastic every time. He’s super responsive with messages, sends adorable photo updates, and takes the time to play with them and keep them comfortable. Thank you so much Trevor!”
“Patrica is thoughtful and considerate. I never worried about my cats in her care. They rush to the door to greet her. My cats know she is a wonderful person and I’m very grateful.”
About: My husband and I have both had cats our whole lives. We also currently volunteer at the Aurora Animal Shelter so that we can spend time with the cats before they find their forever homes. We would love to take care of your babies when you are away from your home. I work from home and have a flexible schedule during the day and my husband Zach has more availability in the evenings.

About: I’ve lived with and cared for all types of dogs and cats since I was a young child. I care for friends and family member’s pets throughout the years. My family and I love animals and are dedicated to providing a caring and fun environment for your pet. I work from home and have plenty of time to walk and play with pups. We love our pups and kitty and walk Mollie and Hollie at least a mile everyday. We have a large park with a lake full of interesting smells for pups to explore. We are used to dietary restrictions and can adapt to any personality. You can drop your pet off and relax knowing they are cared for by a loving family. I currently work from home so I have plenty of time to take multiple walks a day and play in the yard with your pup. We feed our animals in the morning and evening and we all snuggle together on the bed at night. I have a fenced in yard and a dog door so your pup may go in and out as often as they like. Some pups can’t figure out the dog door so I am here to let them in and out as needed. We take at least one long walk a day and play fetch in the yard. Pups are welcomed to sleep in our room if they are more comfortable there.
“Heather and James have been so great about communicating with me during the whole process of scheduling meet-ups to make sure everyone felt comfortable, to explaining details of how they maintain safety for the dogs in their care, to welcoming Loretta at drop-off, to sending me updates & photos throughout the day while she is there. I am so happy & relieved to know that she is being treated so well. She definitely loves going over there & we are looking forward to future visits. THANK YOU HEATHER & JAMES!”
“My gsp loved being at Daviana’s! Our pups got along so well, and she made my pup feel right at home. Super communicative and flexible with scheduling. Will book with her again!”
“Savanna was wonderful! She was extremely responsive, flexible, and easy to communicate with from start to finish. I really appreciated how accommodating she was and felt comfortable knowing Parker was in good hands.”
About: I grew up in a small village in Siberia. The one constant that I saw every day was animals. My mother loved every kind of dog and every kind of cat. I learned from a young age that I would love them all too. I have a gentle, patient, and loving nature that makes animals feel comfortable around me, and makes me a comforting companion for them as well. When I moved to America, my husband worked for Rover. I began going with him to care for animals and discovered that I would like to help pet people when they need some help with their furry friends. So, if you'd like to help me spend some time with cute pets, I'd love to help you receive great care for your pups and kitties. Don't play Russian Roulette with your precious companions. Let me be there to help! I am a stay at home mom, so I am always present in the home. I have 2 children under 2, but I spend a lot of time teaching them kindness to animals. If I am in your home, I will treat it with the respect and care that I treat my own home. If your pets are in my home, they will be treated with dignity and love. I keep my house clean and in good condition so that it is a pleasant environment for everyone.
“Iggy was wonderful with Phoenix! He spent his days playing with Ignacio’s dog, Koda, and came home every day happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I felt completely comfortable knowing Phoenix was in such good hands and would absolutely book with Ignacio again!”

Whether you are away on vacation or just need an extra hand during this busy season, feel free to reach out for trusted local pet care you can count on! Until then - Logan, animal lover and pet care specialist 🐶 I currently am working part time so I have a large chunk of the week available for caring for your pet. Especially weekends but also weekdays. I have a small fenced in yard area at the side of my home as well as a cute little kitty named Ozzy who is shy of other animals but kind when given space and time to adjust. Your pet should feel right at home.
“Rose and Gypsy had another great time at Micki’s. They are comfortable in her home as they walk right in and don’t seem to care I’m leaving them. I really enjoy the pictures throughout their stay. We will continue to use Micki’s services in the future.”
“Rebekah went above and beyond our expectations. She anticipated our needs, eased our minds, and my dog was excited to go back to see her the next 2 days as well. She took great care of our German Shepherd, constantly kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and texts, and followed every little instruction and ask we had. She is the best sitter!”
“How can you tell when you’ve found a great pet sitter? Your dog can’t wait to get out of the car and rushes to their door! Gracie absolutely loves coming here. ❤️”
“I literally found the best dog sitter. I couldn’t ask for someone better. She is exceptional at communication, gives frequent updates with photos and videos and loves your puppy like her own. Highly recommend”
“Briana took Nessie last minute for the day when I realized we may be out longer than anticipated. She was extremely responsive and understanding and we would absolutely use her again if needed! Nessie came home happy and tired pup!”
“Thanks Talise! It was great to meet up with Talise before our first day of daycare. She took the time to get to know my dog and so he knew her and could be comfortable staying with her for the day. Drop off was tough for my dog, but she was reassuring and made sure to provide updates and pictures an hour after drop off to ease my worries.”
“I feel so lucky to have found Autumn and Daniel (and Arlo of course). Our puppy can be needy and high energy but they took amazing care of her and she loved the day! Will definitely use them again!”
About: I have grown up with all different animals between dogs, ferrets, birds, and rabbits. Currently I have a dog of my own and he is a very friendly Husky who loves other dogs as well! I live in a townhome and unfortunately no backyard but we go for runs and walks throughout the day to make sure he gets enough exercise! There is also a dog park right up the street that we walk to :) I work from home all week so I am able to be with animals all day or go to a house quite a bit through the day as well! I have a dog of my own name Tucker and he is great with other dogs! Unfortunately we don’t have a backyard but we go for walks and runs throughout the day! We also have a dog park right up the street.
“Micah took wonderful care of Momo. As an avid user of Rover, I can say that she is professional and went above and beyond for me and my dog. My dog suffers from separation anxiety, but she made sure he was comfortable during his Rover stay. She responds and communicates well. I work crazy hours and she was able to accommodate us when we had a last minute cancellation. Throughout my dog’s stay, she gave me updates and plenty of pictures. Her service is top notch!”

About: Dogs have been part of my life since childhood, so I'm comfortable with any size or personality. Their safety is non-negotiable — when I was in the Peace Corps and realized the environment wasn't safe for the dog I'd adopted, I sent him back to the U.S. rather than risk it. That's the same care I bring to every walk and every stay. I run regularly, so your dog gets an actual walk, not a lap around the block — they'll come home tired and happy. I also have my own dog, so walks might come with a buddy, if you're up for it. Pet care isn't something I fit in around my day — it's already part of it. I have open availability across mornings, afternoons, and evenings, so your dog's walk or visit isn't squeezed into a narrow window between other commitments — it's a real priority, not an afterthought. I also have my own dog, so daily walks, feeding schedules, and reading a dog's mood or energy level are already habits, not extra tasks. Your dog's care gets the same consistency mine does. I show up on time and stick to your dog's usual routine — same leash, same route, same pace, unless you'd like something different. I watch their energy and body language throughout, not just for safety, but to actually read what they need that day. Before I go, I make sure water's out and everything's left the way I found it. I also send a quick photo or update after the walk, so you know exactly how it went.
“I recommend Tiffany 100%! She was quick to respond to my request but, most of all she was patient with our dog,Ace, who is reactive to strangers and barks. She sends updates and keeps me posted on how they did each walk.”
About: Hey so I am opening my home to watch your dogs when you might need some help or are going out of town. I work from home so weekdays are great! I also have a 5 month old Yakutian Laika, Koda, that is ALWAYS full of energy so your dog will always have someone to play with. If you'd like to have your dog stay overnight I typically have Koda sleep in a crate but sometimes in the bedroom so if you have a crate thats great but I can make it work if not. I typically go hiking on the weekends or play volleyball at the park so I can definitely keep your dog active if he/she is with me during then. I live in a home I just purchased with a lot of yard space. I have had dogs and know how to care for them, but I dont not have any technical certifications if you needed that.
“I really appreciate Heathers flexibility. Our dog is older and he’s slowing down, he spends a lot of his time sleeping in his bed. Heather spends a lot of her visit watching him sleep in his bed. But when he wanted to spend a little extra time outside this morning, Heather was nice enough to accommodate him. I love how she actually cares about my dogs and understands his moods.”
“Our previous Rover was no longer doing Rover so we needed a new walker. Raenae has been responsive, dependable, and Neo is happy! So glad to have found her!”
“Laura is seriously so fantastic! My dog loves her, she's communicative, and she's adaptable, coming though for me even on last-minute requests. So grateful I found her!”
About: Available anytime I have blue heeler but in the past I had a boxer chocolate lab so I’m used to high entertainment dog and slower pace dogs I need part time but if we can get a schedule together I can work with anytime you need me around and I can do two walks Feed dog make sure we get along to not stress dog give two walk a day tracing playing with toys going on trails around the city
About: My wife and I currently have 3 large dogs and 1 cat, I’m great at handling multiple dogs on walks! I’ve cared for animals who needed daily medication and extra attention, adopted and raised a pregnant cat providing care to her and her kittens until they could be adopted, and have provided palliative care for senior dogs and cats. I’ve always loved animals; I have owned everything from frogs to finches, I studied biology at university, and I volunteered at wildlife rescue centers for years. One of my favorite experiences was helping several abandoned raccoon kits by providing feedings and keeping their space clean and quiet. Helped with keeping animals calm while the vet performed diagnostics. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to check in on the pets when you’re away as often as you’d like. I am gentle and patient with dogs and cats, my pets are my kids, I walk mine daily and really look forward to seeing their happy faces all the time
“Logan was an excellent dog walker. She treated our dogs so well, especially our one who has a lot of anxiety. Logan made her feel safe and was able to have good rapport with her quickly! We will definitely reach out to Logan in the future for more walks.”
About: Having grown up with four or more pets for most of my life, supporting animal routines is second nature to me. For the past 6 years, I have independently managed several clients, providing reliable, high quality, and empathetic service for them and their pets. My experience ranges from managing high energy puppies to providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs, and cats too! I am currently taking gig work (usually in the evenings) and working events with the city of Denver every Wednesday, I am currently very flexible to make your pet my priority. I walk into every job ready to give a level of care I would hope my own animals would receive while I was away. All animals deserve love and attention, I give everything from cuddles and kisses to walks and playtime/enrichment based on the needs/desires of the animal.
“Imelda walked my dog 3x per week for about 4 months while I recovered from a broken leg. She did an outstanding job, and took a huge load off my shoulders while I was out of it. My dog loved her and came home from each walk so happy! I would highly recommend Imelda for your needs and would absolutely use her services again if the need arises!”
About: As a dog walker and sitter, what sets me apart from others is my genuine love and passion for animals. I am not just doing this job for the sake of it, but because I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and providing them with the care and attention they deserve. I know how to administer medication and insulin. I have training skills/experience and can help train your dog in leash. I believe in creating a strong bond with the dogs I work with, understanding their unique personalities, and tailoring my services to meet their specific needs. I make sure to provide a safe and comfortable environment for them, whether it's during walks, playtime, or overnight sitting. Additionally, I have extensive experience in handling dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I am trained in dog behavior and body language, ensuring that I can effectively communicate and understand their needs, even in challenging situations. This enables me to provide a calm and confident presence while working with them. Furthermore, I prioritize open and transparent communication with pet owners. I keep them updated about their furry friend's activities and any noteworthy observations during my time with them. This helps to maintain trust and allows owners to feel at ease knowing their pets are in good hands. I am working from home with my own startup business, with that being said, I am able to travel and be flexible and, most importantly dependable. I prioritize the care and safety of the pets entrusted to me. Firstly, I make sure to create a pet-friendly environment by removing any hazardous objects or chemicals that may harm them. I also provide a comfortable and secure area for the pets, ensuring they have access to food, water, and a quiet place to rest. Additionally, I closely adhere to the pet's feeding and exercise routines, ensuring they receive the care and attention they need. Regularly monitoring them for any signs of distress or illness is a top priority, and I promptly address any concerns by contacting the owner or seeking veterinary assistance if necessary. Overall, I approach pet sitting with utmost responsibility and dedication, ensuring the welfare and safety of the animals under my care.
“Christine is wonderful she took her time to be sure that our Gracie was comfortable with her before taking her for her first walk. I feel Gracie is very well taken care of.”
“I'm so grateful to have found Kiyara to stop in to walk my senior dog while I'm at work! He needs more consistent interaction and bathroom breaks these days as well as mid-day medication. Kiyara was flexible with my work schedule, showed up exactly when expected, and was able to administer Rocky's meds. I can't wait to keep working with her!”
About: Hi! I’m Tara, a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust, and my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs and cats through overnight stays and drop-in visits, and I’m comfortable adapting to your pet’s routine and individual needs. If your pet requires special care, medications, or extra attention, I’m happy to discuss this beforehand. My home includes two friendly small dogs, and I live in a quieter area with access to nearby parks and walking trails which is great for exercise. I’m insured, prioritize safety, and provide attentive care with regular updates so you can have peace of mind while away. Whether your pet loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or a calm environment, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! I’m happy to help take care of your pets while you are out enjoying life or taking a family vacation. Will take care of your dogs like they are my own. I have two small bread dogs who will be in the home with me. I can overnight care if needed. My pets are super friendly with other dogs.
