“Jen and her family were a delight to work with! They integrated our dog right into their family activities and he was happy and well-rested when I picked him up. I’d hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“Our pup loved staying at Jana &Colten’s place! I really appreciated that halfway through the day, she sent me pictures of him and updated me that he was doing well. He is on a shy side, so I appreciated Jana’s gentle energy when we dropped him off :) we would definitely rebook, and I think our dog enjoyed his time with them.”
“Tania and her daughter took great care of Bandit for a full week. We received frequent notes and pictures. He had a lot of walks. He loved playing with their dogs and was treated like part of the family.”
“We needed someone to keep our dog for the night while we went to a concert in Vail. Lola was so happy at Erin’s with both of her pups, lots of walks, a big fenced yard, and another rover pup to play with. We are so thankful and would absolutely use Erin to watch Lola again in the future.”
“Karen was an absolute lifesaver for us! We had friends visiting with their kids, and managing two dogs on top of everything would have been a lot, so having Bondi stay with her for a few days made all the difference. Karen kept us completely at ease by posting frequent updates and sharing lots of photos. From every picture, it was clear that Bondi was having the best time and getting so much love and attention. It really meant a lot to see how happy and comfortable he was while we were away. We’re so grateful for the care she gave Bondi and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring to look after their pup!”

“John is an excellent dog sitter. Super communicative and he was so kind and caring with my dog. He was very diligent about getting my dog out for his walks and sent tons of pictures as well. Highly recommend and I will definitely be using John as a sitter again in the future.”
“Marina did an amazing job taking care of our sheepdog, Leo. He was exercised on trails (his favorite place to be) every day. She kept us updated with pictures and videos. She was accommodating to all of his funny sheepdog quirks. Leo would highly recommend Marina (and her husband Tom)!”
“We’ve had wonderful experiences boarding our dog with Katie and Ryan. They are communicative, kind and willing to accommodate our dog’s medication schedule. We received regular updates and photos, and it’s clear our dog was happy and well-cared for in their care. Highly recommend!”
“Thank you Brad, you saved the day with our last minute booking! I know the Doobs had fun when he sleeps the whole day after his stay! It was a pleasure meeting you, will use you again in the future and do highly recommend you to other river users! Next time I promise to give you more of a heads up! Thanks again!”
About: I’ve owned dogs and taken care of family and friend’s for decades. I’m an animal lover of all types, but particularly man’s furry best friend! I work remote for a nonprofit and have plenty of flexibility within my schedule. Wednesday and Thursday nights I am unavailable, otherwise let’s chat and find time for your pup. I do not offer care in my home. I will come to you and provide comfort and care for your dog in the environment they are used to, ensuring whatever unique needs they have are met!
About: I have owned dogs for over 10+ years. I have experience with senior care (from my own baby girl that passed in December of 2025). I will always love your fur babies as my own. Dogs mean the world to me. I work full time from home, which means I can let them potty as often as they need to be let out. We live near two little lakes, so I can take them on scenic walks outside to enjoy fresh air on my lunches or after work. I am a pretty active person, so if they are an active pup, I can work with that. If they prefer to be more chill & not as active, I can also do that. I don't have a fenced yard, but it's not a problem to let them out to potty, or to go for walks. Dogs are welcome on the furniture. Please let me know your pups bedtime/morning schedules! I can also learn to do injections if needed, or any other medication administration - if you just show me how you normally do it. I would love to also send you all the updates you could possibly want & photos while they are in my care.
“I'd be happy to help! Here's a friendlier version of the I booked this place last minute and the host was amazing! They were really communicative and sweet. My dog Harley loved his stay, and the location was super convenient for getting to and from the mountain. We even got to explore some fresh powder while I was snowboarding. It was a great experience overall!”
About: I've grown up around dogs and had my own for almost 10 years. Just because he is gone, doesn't mean I can't help others when they need it. I'm one of those people that walk into a dog park and get surrounded by the pack. I adore them! As of right now, I have all the time in the world to care for and look after all the fuzzy critters. I appreciate all animals, no matter what the species. I currently live in West Vail, not far from the dog park so lots of playtime throughout the day. I love hiking and long walks to clear the mind.
About: Recently coming off traveling the US and the way I was able to do that was pet sitting! I was able to line up dog sits and stay in areas I’ve always wanted to visit. The plus was having a dog to get to explore the outside world with. I’m moving back to Colorado and would love to keep this going by staying in new areas. Please reach out to me so I can get to know your fur babies needs! :) I currently work a 8-4 job in Edwards. I would be able to let the dog out in the am for the bathroom and when I get home I would be able to talk the dog for a long walk. There are some days I do like to go home for lunch or if I am passing by on a work route I can stop and check in - all depends on the day. Right now I would like to stick to home visits as I do have a roomate. At others homes I care for their place as I would mine. I am tidy & respectful. I like to stick to the pets routine so I would ask to leave a detailed schedule behind.
“Olivia is wonderful! We have never felt more comfortable leaving our dog with a sitter. Our dog got plenty of exercise and attention. We got daily pictures and updates and our pup had the best time! We recommend Olivia 1000% for anyone needing a dog sitter. She truly is the best”
About: I work very part-time and not during the summer at all. I take the girls every morning on a long walk, hike or to the river to play. They come everywhere with us in the car and to the kids outings. ideally the dog we are hosting loves to hike off leash and come for car rides. Dogs must love kids (three boys ages 8, 10 and 12) and our two sweet, docile female dogs. Our dogs are never home alone more than an hour a day and roam the house when so. We also foster regularly for a local rescue but I wouldn’t overlap our foster dogs with a client. I don’t work during the summer and the rest of the year it’s very part time. We walk or hike every morning. On days that aren’t too hot the girls come with me in the car for errands and to take my kids to their activities. We have an unfenced yard and a deck. Our girls just lay in the sun but I also have a tie out if your dog isn’t perfectly trustworthy. Dogs are allowed to roam the house and sleep on any bed :) If they like their crate i’m happy to set that up for them.

About: I have been a dog mom for the last seventeen years, but my last fur-baby crossed the rainbow bridge this year, so I have some free time to help others care for their babies. I have a full-time 8a-4p M-F career that allows me the freedom to housesit on weekends and do nightly checkins after 5p (morning stops available if Eagle/Gypsum local). I have a fenced in backyard and a cozy bed to sleep in (or crate if needed) for any seeking a pet retreat for a weekend. My roommate had a small chihuahua mix and house cat, but they can be separated. If house sitting, I am able to come over and love on your fur-children if you need a weekend getaway. I’m also available to stay overnight in your home if that would help ease the pets anxiety and stress.
“Madison did a great job taking care of our cats and sent plenty of videos and pictures! They were also super helpful with some of our door code issues. Thank you so much, Madison! I would highly recommend this sitter and plan to book with them again in the future (:”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life! I have grown up with dogs and very familiar with most breeds. I know how to communicate with them and easily figure out if anything is wrong. I absolutely love animals and would love to be a dog trainer one day. I have open availability andI pay close attention when I am responsible for watching an animal or child. I pet sit all the time for friends (puppies, elderly, overnight, or just stopping by). If I could have my career focused on dogs, I would be ecstatic! I'm trustworthy and knowledgable. Walking and playing with dogs would be an easy task for me because I would have fun with the task since I am an active person.
About: Located in Vail for the time being. In the past, I have been a full time foster to over 50 dogs! Most were pairs of puppies under a year old (occasionally 3 at a time). I also have experience providing care for a dog after a major back procedure. Additionally, I have taken care of dogs as small as a chihuahua and as big as an Alaskan malamute. I am willing to take high-energy breeds of dogs on long walks to get their exercise in and even to local dog parks for socializing! I have a very flexible schedule and I am willing to accommodate any needs of the owners. Please message me with any further questions! :-) I currently work Sunday through Wednesday, 9-5. On my days off I like to ski, but am willing to occasionally take a day off the hill to play with pups! I can provide a loving and safe environment for your dog as needed. I do not have any other pets and will devote most of my day to hanging with your pooch when they are in my care.
About: Dogs Rule!! The End. I think most dog and animal lovers can agree. Currently I live and work from my home in Eagle, Colorado. I live on a quiet street in a great part of Town. Living right next to a park and the Eagle River allows access to trails everywhere right out my door. Having a four legged adventure partner is a wonderful way to enjoy so many things this area has to offer. Being a long time dog owner I can't imagine my life without a dog in it. Recently my dog Sonny passed away. He was a small Pomeranian who thought he was the size of a Bear! Having such a small dog with a big attitude helped me to learn how to manage a pack of dogs of all sizes. Sonny's best friend was a very hefty Pit mix named T-bone. Quite the odd couple. My house has always been a dog friendly place. Now I am dogless and looking to love others dogs. I left my day job in academia to pursue another passion. Being creative! I now own and operate a custom picture framing business. I work from home and love the flexibility I have to set my own schedule. When your dog is with me they will be my side kick through the day. Whether it is hanging with me in the workshop, or adventuring with me when we all need a break. It is easy to have impromptu backyard adventures around here.
About: Greetings! Caring for animals is second nature to me. I grew up in Southern Minnesota on a hobby ranch that nurtured my deep love for animals. As I got older, I found myself in similar situations- constantly surrounded by animals of all kinds and more often than not, finding myself more at peace when surrounded by them. From cities and slopes in CO to the vast landscapes and ranches in WY, I've always worked with and looked after animals of all kinds. Your critters are in good hands with me! Besides my love for animals, I am trustworthy and genuine. I served as a Mental Health Child Counselor, Preschool Teacher, Autism Specialist, and Career Nanny for over 10 years. I own two nanny and babysitting agencies where i work from home. My passions in life include teaching mindfulness and meditation, traveling, and seeing live music. Pet Care fits into my life very easily and fluidly because I work from home, build my own schedule, and can adapt to the needs of each day. All in all, I'm a good listener and will follow the needs and requests of my clients. I am very hands-on and love to be present and engaging depending on need. The more love I can give the better. Your home will be cared for like it was my own.
About: AVAILABLE FOR LABOR DAY WEEKEND. I grew up in a veterinary practice and have been surrounded by animals my entire life. With over 15 years of hands-on experience as a veterinary technician and 30+ years of caring for pets of all ages, I understand what it takes to keep animals happy, healthy, and comfortable. I’m currently pursuing my Master’s in Public Health, which has kept me from having a pet of my own right now—but I truly miss the daily joy of animal companionship. That’s why I look forward to spending quality time with your pets, giving them the same love, patience, and care I’d give my own. I currently work for myself as a private academic tutor and have flexibility. I try to update availability as often as possible however, I do have clients outside of this application that reach out last minute. I currently reside in Wildwood located in Avon. I have a small backyard and a deck for outside time in addition to close proximity to trails for longer walks.
About: I'm reliable, fun, loving, and have experience with dog sitting for 6 years. I have helped out with dog sitting for neighbor's, friend's, and my own family's dogs. I have 2 labradoodles back home so I have a huge soft spot for all pets! Will always care for pets like they're my own. Im currently available full time- glad to help whenever and however needed! I can take pets on walks, pick them up from appointments and take care of them at their homes too. I have always treated my labradoodles like they are my children. I grew up pampering and caring for them more than most do. I am very loving with pets, treat them with respect , and will always prioritize their well-being.
About: Update Nov 2025: I have recently reactivated my account, and my availability is up to date. I look forward to hearing from you! 👋 Hello! I'm Andie, a Colorado native and enthusiastic animal-lover. I have grown up with pets of all different kinds - from rodents and reptiles to horses and birds - and am comfortable around all animals. When I am not living with dogs of my own, I am usually fostering for the local animal shelter so as not to live a day without a four-legged companion! My number one priority is to make sure your pets are always happy and safe. I am experienced in monitoring the overall activities of dogs and cats as well performing personal care activities such as exercising, bathing/grooming, and administering medications (experience with pills/pastes, eye/ear drops and insulin injections). I love photography and art, so you can expect plenty of photo updates while I'm watching your pets. I paint pet portraits as a hobby, so if you are interested, please don't hesitate to ask and I'd be happy to link you to my portfolio... Thanks for checking out my profile, and please reach out if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your precious pets! My work schedule is somewhat flexible. I work full-time with the option to work from home, so will do my best to adjust my in-office vs. at-home schedule according to your pet's needs. I live in a very pet-friendly community in Edwards, right near Riverwalk. There are trails for miles and multiple off-leash areas where dogs can play. However, I am extremely diligent about leash etiquette so I prefer to keep your dogs on leash and under my control at all times.

About: Life is better with dogs and I often say we don’t deserve them! I’ve grown up with dogs and currently have 4 adorable miniature dachshunds. I wanted 2 more but my partner threw down the hammer on me saying no. I’ve used Rover in the past and had some really amazing experiences and one, not so great experience, so I understand the value in finding the right person to stay, play and take care of your loved ones. I’ve always valued my caretaker sending plenty of photos and videos while I’m away, so I always said if I did this for others, I would do the same! Trust and reliability are the most important things I’ve always looked for in having someone stay in my home with my pets while I’m away, and that’s what you get from me! I am currently retired and am fully available day and night! My partner and our 4 dogs stay at our house in Denver full time, and I stay at my house here in the Vail Valley, so there are no conflicts with my schedule. I would be the only person taking care of your pets! Pets are children. Always have been and always will be in my book. I love to play with, walk and snuggle them. I like to give them the same unconditional love they give us.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and pets for over 12 years and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I have experience with puppies, high-energy dogs, and older pets that need a gentler approach. I’m also very aware of behavior, routines, and making sure your pet stays on their normal schedule. Living an active lifestyle, I’m great for dogs that need exercise, but I’m just as happy taking it slow with more relaxed pets. Communication is important to me, so I’ll always keep you updated with photos and check-ins. I have extra time on my hands as I work on my own schedule. Can easily take off time from my daily activities to accommodate. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every pet I care for. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any specific instructions you provide. I always keep a clean and secure space, making sure pets are supervised and comfortable at all times. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and keep everything just as I found it. I pay close attention to behavior and energy levels to ensure your pet is happy and stress-free. I also provide regular updates and photos so you feel confident and at ease while you’re away.
About: I have my own cat that is at my friends to provide his dad some cuddles, so I miss him dearly and would love to show up for your pet whichever way they need while my cat is on his socializing duties! I enjoy their different personalities, cuddly versus aloof, they all are so cute and deserve the world. I enjoy building trust over time with them and giving them the safe space others may not know how to respect tor nurture. I have taken care of old and young kittens through time pet sitting as well.
“Alex was just fantastic with both our energetic and playful dogs (Belgian Malinous and Aussie Shepherd). She provided us with exactly the dog care we needed during our vacation. They were well-cared for, taken out to the beach and in a great mood when we got back. We'd gladly hire her again. Thank you, Alex!!”

About: From draft horses to Labradors I have always loved taking care of animals. Growing up in North West Iowa our family has had 5 generations of working Labrador retrievers spanning from the early 1970's. Without a doubt, dogs are our favorite family tradition. I own an equine property in a beautiful part of Colorado. My day starts early taking care of the animals. From horses to goats they all require my constant care. Every day is an adventure out on the ranch. Your dog will have a country experience that most humans would envy! Your pup will be my side kick and get to make new friends!
“Jana & Colten were amazing! We were in vail skiing for the day, she picked Levi up at the beginning of the day and dropped him off once we were done skiing. She was a great communicator and sent lots of adorable photos throughout the day. They got him out for lots of exercise so he was nice and exhausted once we got home. I had never left my dog with a stranger before but he took to her so well and jumped right into her car, I was shocked! Colten and Jana are such a sweet kind caring couple I knew he was in great hands! We will be using them every time we come up skiing! Thank you!!”
About: I love to walk and spend time with pets, they are the best companions. Going for walks with my pet is a joy. I love to play with them and making shure that they have all their needs met. I start my day walking with my pet. When I am home I like to play with them in my fenced back yard. At the end of the day we always go for another walk to the park. I take the pets outside as soon as we wake up. I make sure that they always have access to food and water. Then we go for a nice walk and play.
About: I have a lifelong love for animals and hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats at every stage of life. I’ve owned two dogs, both rescues that I fostered and then adopted. One was a German Shepherd mix who lived a full, happy life to the age of 12, and the other is a mixed-breed terrier who is still thriving with me at nearly 9 years old. My experience includes caring for puppies and kittens, as well as senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I’m also comfortable supporting animals with medical needs, including managing conditions like diabetes. I understand how important it is to provide not just basic care, but also love, consistency, and a calm, attentive presence. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I’m able to maintain flexible scheduling, regular check-ins, and plenty of companionship for pets who prefer not to be alone for long periods. I live just a couple of hundred yards from a hiking trail, so daily walks and outdoor time are a natural part of my routine. With my own small terrier, I’m already out walking and hiking regularly, and I love including other dogs in those adventures when appropriate. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. While I do have an unfenced yard, I will always be present and closely supervise any outdoor time. Off-leash potty breaks will only be done with your permission and for pets who are comfortable and reliable in that setting. For added safety, all walks beyond the yard, whether around the neighborhood or on nearby hiking trails will always be done on leash unless permissions provided for off-leash exercise by owner. I stay attentive, aware of surroundings, and committed to keeping your pet secure, comfortable, and well cared for at all times.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since a very young age and I’ve always had one or multiple in my family!! Now I have my puppy named Figgy and we’re both ready to make some new friends and create fun memories with them!! Coming the off season I have a lot more free time, I’m always off in the mornings and my boyfriend is always home in the afternoon so it works out perfectly for having a happy and always accompanied pet :) I try to be as careful as I can to follow a pets routine wether that be in my house or theirs. I think it’s all built from respect and trust.
“Kristen, Scott, and their son were wonderful with our pups while my husband and I skied for the day. They sent lots of photos, took them on a walk in the snow, and loved playing with their pup Nittany.”
“Olivia was awesome! She seemed very considerate and loving of our little old special needs boy. It was great to be able to work and play at our conference knowing he was in good hands”
“Natasha was great! She was flexible even offered many suggestions for things for the humans to do in the area while she watched our pup. Cadence was so excited to see her again and she did a wonderful job handling her. Would absolutely recommend and would book her again if we come back to the Rocky’s!”
“Taylor was the perfect sitter! She was so easy to communicate with. We will definitely use her again when we are back in town. She made everything so easy and smooth. Highly recommend!”
“Monica was very warm and welcoming. Dropped off the pup so I could spend a day at the hot springs. She was eager to hang out with new people and seemed very relaxed when I picked her up. Would definitely book again!”
About: Helping care for pets is especially meaningful to me because my own pets are an extension of who I am. From outdoor adventures to cozy cuddles, I treat every furry friend like family and love keeping owners updated along the way. My dogs get walked twice a day and let out midday, we would rather be outside. I usually get out earlier in the morning due to the heat! I manage dogs in my home and in others’ homes with a balance of freedom, structure, and respect. In my own space, dogs have free range with a few furniture boundaries, constant access to fresh water, and regular bathroom breaks. When caring for pets in another home, I strictly follow all homeowner rules and routines to ensure pets feel comfortable and consistency is maintained.
About: Working with animals has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. I am currently working as a vet assistant and have been for the past 6 years! Working as a vet assistant, my roles include drawing blood, administering vaccines/injections/medications, assisting the doctor in surgeries, taking care of animals recovering from surgery or in critical care, and much much more. I work with more than 20 different patients a day so I have seen many different animal behaviors, situations, and cases. And I love every single patient. For any senior pets or special need pets, I can administer any medications, give injections, administer fluids, etc. Using my medical experience I will be aware if your pet is not feeling okay while you’re away. I will make sure your pet is loved, kissed, and played with so it will feel like you never left. I can also provide other services such as nail trims, anal glands, baths. I have a genuine love for animals and would love to expand my love for them by taking care of your fur babies. I would love to create a relationship that your pet is familiar with while you’re away. I am available during the afternoon, noon or mid-day, and weekends. I can accommodate times if needed for your pet, just let me know please. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly dog but can separate if needed since I do have 2 floors. Or can even crate them if that’s where they’re comfortable.
“Ryan was wonderful with our 1 year old dog. He was attentive, easy to communicate with, and made our dog feel right at home. Moreover, he would send us pictures and videos throughout the day to let us know that our dog was doing well in his new surroundings. Lastly, he has a very sweet dog that our dog loved and seemed to bond with almost instantly. Would definitely book with Ryan again!”

My schedule is typically flexible for walks, boards, pickups and drop offs, or whatever is needed.

I also have access to safe walking areas nearby, providing daily walks one or twice a day depending on the clients request..
About: I’ve taken care of dogs majority of my life. Growing up I’be had 3 husky mix breeds all coming from animal shelters. I have always had the responsibility of taking them on walks, playing with them and feeding them. In high school I also volunteered at the animal shelter near me and took care of all the dogs and cats there. I recently also became a loving cat owner and just moved to the area. I hope to meet you and your furry friend soon. I recently moved to the Vail area and am working with Vail resorts. I will be working Monday- Saturday from 9am-6 with a day off during the week. I am open to doing dog walks, house checks, letting your dog out or caring for your cat before work, during my lunch break and at any hours after work and any days I have off. I am currently living in employee housing and at this time could not have other pets in my home due to the policies enforced. I am open to caring for your pet on your home, in whichever way makes you the comfortable.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since a very young age and I’ve always had one or multiple in my family!! Now I have my puppy named Figgy and we’re both ready to make some new friends and create fun memories with them!! Coming the off season I have a lot more free time, I’m always off in the mornings and my boyfriend is always home in the afternoon so it works out perfectly for having a happy and always accompanied pet :) I try to be as careful as I can to follow a pets routine wether that be in my house or theirs. I think it’s all built from respect and trust.
“Abby took great care of my puppy, Scout! She was super flexible with her schedule and kept me updated with pictures and info about the walks! I would highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve lived and cared for animals since I was 8 years old, starting with dogs and rats, to even birds and cats! Im a huge animal lover and super patient with my fur babies. I’m working a part-time job about 4 days a week so I‘ve had a lot of free-time for doggie walks and pet sits! It is best to reach me by my phone number or through the app so we can figure out a time that works between us. I have an apartment in Avon Colorado with an outdoor area for walks and a balcony to rest on. It’s spacious inside for a large bed and toys as well!
About: Life is better with dogs and I often say we don’t deserve them! I’ve grown up with dogs and currently have 4 adorable miniature dachshunds. I wanted 2 more but my partner threw down the hammer on me saying no. I’ve used Rover in the past and had some really amazing experiences and one, not so great experience, so I understand the value in finding the right person to stay, play and take care of your loved ones. I’ve always valued my caretaker sending plenty of photos and videos while I’m away, so I always said if I did this for others, I would do the same! Trust and reliability are the most important things I’ve always looked for in having someone stay in my home with my pets while I’m away, and that’s what you get from me! I am currently retired and am fully available day and night! My partner and our 4 dogs stay at our house in Denver full time, and I stay at my house here in the Vail Valley, so there are no conflicts with my schedule. I would be the only person taking care of your pets! Pets are children. Always have been and always will be in my book. I love to play with, walk and snuggle them. I like to give them the same unconditional love they give us.
About: Dogs Rule!! The End. I think most dog and animal lovers can agree. Currently I live and work from my home in Eagle, Colorado. I live on a quiet street in a great part of Town. Living right next to a park and the Eagle River allows access to trails everywhere right out my door. Having a four legged adventure partner is a wonderful way to enjoy so many things this area has to offer. Being a long time dog owner I can't imagine my life without a dog in it. Recently my dog Sonny passed away. He was a small Pomeranian who thought he was the size of a Bear! Having such a small dog with a big attitude helped me to learn how to manage a pack of dogs of all sizes. Sonny's best friend was a very hefty Pit mix named T-bone. Quite the odd couple. My house has always been a dog friendly place. Now I am dogless and looking to love others dogs. I left my day job in academia to pursue another passion. Being creative! I now own and operate a custom picture framing business. I work from home and love the flexibility I have to set my own schedule. When your dog is with me they will be my side kick through the day. Whether it is hanging with me in the workshop, or adventuring with me when we all need a break. It is easy to have impromptu backyard adventures around here.
“Karine is such a responsive and caring dog walker! She kept me updated and I felt like my pups were in great hands and well taken care of during my busy work day. Will definitely book with her again!”
About: I grew up on a small farm where I helped care for our dogs, cats, guinea pigs, chickens, ducks and rabbits. Now I have a rambunctious coonhound who always wants to head out for a walk and can play well after he should. I enjoy taking him out to dog parks, walks in open spaces and off leash time in the National Forest. I would love to help you with your pups walking needs. whether you have a high energy dogs that needs some trail running, or a dog that would prefer a more mundane city park I can accommodate either one and all dogs in between. I have a job that affords the ability to take a dog walk or stop over for a quick feeding at any time of day or night I only frequent parks and areas that are safe so me and your dog will be as well. I would only walk your dog by itself or with his siblings. Also I would not go to off-leash dog parks unless specifically requested.
About: I'm reliable, fun, loving, and have experience with dog sitting for 6 years. I have helped out with dog sitting for neighbor's, friend's, and my own family's dogs. I have 2 labradoodles back home so I have a huge soft spot for all pets! Will always care for pets like they're my own. Im currently available full time- glad to help whenever and however needed! I can take pets on walks, pick them up from appointments and take care of them at their homes too. I have always treated my labradoodles like they are my children. I grew up pampering and caring for them more than most do. I am very loving with pets, treat them with respect , and will always prioritize their well-being.
“Annie was awesome! Even though I gave her the incorrect address, she still came and walked my pups twice and they loved it! I really appreciate her taking good care of my girls. Thank you Annie!”

About: I have had dogs ever since I could remember as a kid. I have experience sitting for small, big, old, young, and medically complex animals, also including cats and reptiles. I have administered medications/observed certain pets as well that needed a little extra attention. I really enjoy engaging your pets in the routines you have set for them and being silly with them to bring them out of their shells. I miss having my own dogs who have sadly passed from childhood and would love to spend time with them! I currently work early mornings, but can switch that around, Friday-Wednesday, usually off by 3pm. I would be able to house sit any of these days and do walks any morning and afternoon! I ensure I understand expectations from every owner on their routines and desires. I ensure I keep the place clean and give the animals the space, as well as attention, they need! I try my best to mimick what their usual routine is so when the owners get back, the transition is smooth and less anxiety stricken for both parties.
About: I’ve been a dog owner my whole life, from yellow labs to chihuahuas. Dogs are a passion of mine. Pets are part of the family. I currently have a 6 yr old border collie mix and he’s my whole world. I would do anything for him as I would do anything for any pet. The love we share with our animals is incomparable. Have your pets well taken care of & loved while you’re gone by someone who cares for your pet just as much as she cares for her own. That way you don’t have to worry or wonder while you are away. You know your fur baby is in good, experienced hands, just waiting for you to return home. I live in a 4 bed house with a nice big grassy backyard with plenty of room, toys and treats!! Let me love on your pup next time your have to travel ❤️
About: Hi, I'm Keith, a 34-year-old Cornell graduate that grew up in a family of animal lovers! My Dad worked in the animal health industry his whole life and he instilled in us the love of taking care of dogs and all animals since I was a little boy growing up on our farm. My first dog was an older border collie named Amy I got as a five-year-old and I've been raising them ever since. The dog that shines brightest in my memory is Snowy, our family dog from when I was 11-23 years old (the white lab/retriever looking mix in the pics). We used to race hundreds of miles up and down our half-mile long driveway in Upstate NY as Snowy could run 30-32mph in his prime! We truly grew up together and after university, Snowy and I moved across the country to the mountains of Colorado where he enjoyed his namesake fully until he passed away several years ago. The joy that he brought to my family, friends, strangers and patients while volunteering in the hospital is something I'll never forget. I'm passionate about helping ease the difficulties of pet ownership for others so that they too can hopefully have the bond that Snowy and I will always have. In the last 10+ years, I've traveled long term through 80ish countries and thus have decided to wait until I lead a more consistent lifestyle to bring a new puppy into my life. However, I have been very fortunate to have the opportunity to house and pet sit for a number of friends and strangers around the world. If you have a 4-legged friend that needs a new buddy, I'm your man! I am very flexible so don't be afraid to reach out if you need someone anytime at the last minute. Most of my pet and house sitting has not come to me through Rover otherwise I'd easily have 75+ references here but happy to provide other references from Airbnb where I'm a 11-time Superhost etc. I have no set schedule. I am completely free to plan my days around your dogs. I usually make up my plans the day of. Whatever you wish is my command as it is easy for me to adopt whatever rules you prefer so your pets can have familiar consistency. I have no other responsibilities. Please see the rest of my profile and the other sections, not sure why a word limit is needed here. However they would like me to.

“Jen and her family were a delight to work with! They integrated our dog right into their family activities and he was happy and well-rested when I picked him up. I’d hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“Our pup loved staying at Jana &Colten’s place! I really appreciated that halfway through the day, she sent me pictures of him and updated me that he was doing well. He is on a shy side, so I appreciated Jana’s gentle energy when we dropped him off :) we would definitely rebook, and I think our dog enjoyed his time with them.”
“Tania and her daughter took great care of Bandit for a full week. We received frequent notes and pictures. He had a lot of walks. He loved playing with their dogs and was treated like part of the family.”
“We needed someone to keep our dog for the night while we went to a concert in Vail. Lola was so happy at Erin’s with both of her pups, lots of walks, a big fenced yard, and another rover pup to play with. We are so thankful and would absolutely use Erin to watch Lola again in the future.”
“Karen was an absolute lifesaver for us! We had friends visiting with their kids, and managing two dogs on top of everything would have been a lot, so having Bondi stay with her for a few days made all the difference. Karen kept us completely at ease by posting frequent updates and sharing lots of photos. From every picture, it was clear that Bondi was having the best time and getting so much love and attention. It really meant a lot to see how happy and comfortable he was while we were away. We’re so grateful for the care she gave Bondi and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring to look after their pup!”
About: Kaylie grew up in a busy, animal-filled home—surrounded by everything from dogs and cats to bunnies and guinea pigs. Axel grew up with dogs and cats of his own. While we don't have any fur babies of our own currently, we loveee animals! We've spent the last few years pet-sitting in people's homes through other platforms to get our "furry fix." We currently maintain a 5-star rating with glowing reviews from our previous house and pet sits, and we'd be more than happy to share those details with you! Your pet will have plenty of company here! Axel and I both work remotely, so someone is always home to provide attention and companionship throughout the work day.

Whether your dog prefers a gentle stroll or a more rigorous hike, we’re happy to tailor our activity level to their needs—including longer adventures after the work day is done. We are located right on the Eagle Valley bike path, which serves as our massive "extended backyard!" While we don't have a fenced yard, our active lifestyle means your dog will never be bored with multiple dedicated outings throughout the day tailored to their energy level.. We specialize in "on-the-go" care, taking full advantage of the nearby paths, hiking trails, and park for long walks, fetch sessions, and fresh air. Your pet will enjoy a fun stay with constant companionship and plenty of variety.
“John is an excellent dog sitter. Super communicative and he was so kind and caring with my dog. He was very diligent about getting my dog out for his walks and sent tons of pictures as well. Highly recommend and I will definitely be using John as a sitter again in the future.”
“Marina did an amazing job taking care of our sheepdog, Leo. He was exercised on trails (his favorite place to be) every day. She kept us updated with pictures and videos. She was accommodating to all of his funny sheepdog quirks. Leo would highly recommend Marina (and her husband Tom)!”
“We’ve had wonderful experiences boarding our dog with Katie and Ryan. They are communicative, kind and willing to accommodate our dog’s medication schedule. We received regular updates and photos, and it’s clear our dog was happy and well-cared for in their care. Highly recommend!”
“Thank you Brad, you saved the day with our last minute booking! I know the Doobs had fun when he sleeps the whole day after his stay! It was a pleasure meeting you, will use you again in the future and do highly recommend you to other river users! Next time I promise to give you more of a heads up! Thanks again!”
About: I’ve owned dogs and taken care of family and friend’s for decades. I’m an animal lover of all types, but particularly man’s furry best friend! I work remote for a nonprofit and have plenty of flexibility within my schedule. Wednesday and Thursday nights I am unavailable, otherwise let’s chat and find time for your pup. I do not offer care in my home. I will come to you and provide comfort and care for your dog in the environment they are used to, ensuring whatever unique needs they have are met!
About: I have owned dogs for over 10+ years. I have experience with senior care (from my own baby girl that passed in December of 2025). I will always love your fur babies as my own. Dogs mean the world to me. I work full time from home, which means I can let them potty as often as they need to be let out. We live near two little lakes, so I can take them on scenic walks outside to enjoy fresh air on my lunches or after work. I am a pretty active person, so if they are an active pup, I can work with that. If they prefer to be more chill & not as active, I can also do that. I don't have a fenced yard, but it's not a problem to let them out to potty, or to go for walks. Dogs are welcome on the furniture. Please let me know your pups bedtime/morning schedules! I can also learn to do injections if needed, or any other medication administration - if you just show me how you normally do it. I would love to also send you all the updates you could possibly want & photos while they are in my care.
“I'd be happy to help! Here's a friendlier version of the I booked this place last minute and the host was amazing! They were really communicative and sweet. My dog Harley loved his stay, and the location was super convenient for getting to and from the mountain. We even got to explore some fresh powder while I was snowboarding. It was a great experience overall!”
About: I've grown up around dogs and had my own for almost 10 years. Just because he is gone, doesn't mean I can't help others when they need it. I'm one of those people that walk into a dog park and get surrounded by the pack. I adore them! As of right now, I have all the time in the world to care for and look after all the fuzzy critters. I appreciate all animals, no matter what the species. I currently live in West Vail, not far from the dog park so lots of playtime throughout the day. I love hiking and long walks to clear the mind.
About: Recently coming off traveling the US and the way I was able to do that was pet sitting! I was able to line up dog sits and stay in areas I’ve always wanted to visit. The plus was having a dog to get to explore the outside world with. I’m moving back to Colorado and would love to keep this going by staying in new areas. Please reach out to me so I can get to know your fur babies needs! :) I currently work a 8-4 job in Edwards. I would be able to let the dog out in the am for the bathroom and when I get home I would be able to talk the dog for a long walk. There are some days I do like to go home for lunch or if I am passing by on a work route I can stop and check in - all depends on the day. Right now I would like to stick to home visits as I do have a roomate. At others homes I care for their place as I would mine. I am tidy & respectful. I like to stick to the pets routine so I would ask to leave a detailed schedule behind.
“Olivia is wonderful! We have never felt more comfortable leaving our dog with a sitter. Our dog got plenty of exercise and attention. We got daily pictures and updates and our pup had the best time! We recommend Olivia 1000% for anyone needing a dog sitter. She truly is the best”
About: I work very part-time and not during the summer at all. I take the girls every morning on a long walk, hike or to the river to play. They come everywhere with us in the car and to the kids outings. ideally the dog we are hosting loves to hike off leash and come for car rides. Dogs must love kids (three boys ages 8, 10 and 12) and our two sweet, docile female dogs. Our dogs are never home alone more than an hour a day and roam the house when so. We also foster regularly for a local rescue but I wouldn’t overlap our foster dogs with a client. I don’t work during the summer and the rest of the year it’s very part time. We walk or hike every morning. On days that aren’t too hot the girls come with me in the car for errands and to take my kids to their activities. We have an unfenced yard and a deck. Our girls just lay in the sun but I also have a tie out if your dog isn’t perfectly trustworthy. Dogs are allowed to roam the house and sleep on any bed :) If they like their crate i’m happy to set that up for them.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since a very young age and I’ve always had one or multiple in my family!! Now I have my puppy named Figgy and we’re both ready to make some new friends and create fun memories with them!!
