About: My dog is my top priority, and yours will be too! I’m able to take your dog on hikes, runs, and have some fun time with my almost 2 year old husky/heeler mix. Lots of cuddles, exercise, and fun time, while ensuring proper dog to dog boundaries. I have experience caring for dogs from puppies to seniors. I work from home full time, and so am able to provide care for your pets throughout the day. I am unable to care for dogs under 1 year old. Additionally your dog must be: 1) dog friendly, with no history of aggression towards dogs 2) people friendly 3) house trained 4) sleeps through the night I have a fenced yard and one playful two year old husky/heeler mix. Care can include yard play time, leashed walks, hikes, or runs, depending on the needs of your dog! I am also able to keep up with training and obedience with your dog, whether that includes reactivity, leash walking, jumping etc. A meet and greet is required before I am able to book new dogs.
“Della is fantastic! We trust her completely to care for our anxious pup. She is very responsible and in addition to helping him with training, she has helped him socialize with other dogs very well. We have booked her repeatedly and now our dog practically runs to her place because he is so excited to stay with her!”
“Liliana was excellent in taking care of our dog on short notice. Frequent walks and updates on how he was doing were punctual and informative. A truly caring boarder that I highly recommend.”
“Madeline took wonderful care of George during our wedding weekend! We needed some extra help since George was a part of our big day. Maddy helped make sure that George was exercised, and then transferred to our wedding day handler. George had a great time, we had a bunch of pictures that made us feel good and everything was super smooth. Would 100% recommend!”

They have radically different personalities and energy levels and Jennifer did such a wonderful job meeting their individual needs and making sure they got all the attention and play they needed. She also took the most beautiful photos of our guys. I always get nervous when we have to leave them alone but her promptness, relaxed personality, and attention to detail really put us at ease. I would definitely recommend Jennifer!”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats ever since I was born, and have continued to surround myself with them into my adult life. I frequently help out at shelters and have recently branched out to start cat and dog-sitting. I also have two feline friends of my own, who I have had for around three years now :) I take care of my cats throughout the day (feeding, cleaning, and playing with them). This is easy to fit into my work schedule as I work remotely. And with this added flexibility, comes the ability to look after other pets as well! I have plenty of of experience dog and cat sitting, and like to spend lots of time with the animals I stop in to look after. I’m responsible when it comes to feeding pets strictly what the owner says and respect any rules they put in place regarding their pets. I’m readily available to chat over the phone and am happy to send update pictures throughout the day.
“Donovan took good care of our unusual buddies over Thanksgiving week and made it possible to enjoy a nice vacation without worrying. Daily updates and good response to feedback made me feel reassured.”

“Nina does an amazing job with our cats, she is very intuitive and good with the cats, and incredibly reliable. Our cats can be a bit cautious and wary but Nina has been so good with interacting with them and they love seeing her and playing with her. We appreciate all of the photos and updates!”
About: I am a lover of all animals! I rescued my current dog of 3 years and nannied my best friends English bulldog. I've grown up with pitbulls and am not afraid of those big babies. I also had a sharpei who was the most rotten dog ever but I loved her all the same. Dogs love me and I love them. I work from home and set my own schedule so I am pretty open. My dog is spoiled with me being here 24/7 she gets so much attention. My dog is my child. Even my own son gets jealous of her! At this point she even thinks her name is mama's baby. Haha! I treat every animal like they are my own. Every dog is a puppy and the goodest or cutest boi or girl to me.
“Crystal is AMAZING! She's such an animal lover and took fantastic care of my kitty. Crystal was attentive, communicative, and a pleasure to be around. I was so lucky to have someone so responsible and caring while I went on a camping trip. What's more is that Crystal goes above and beyond. My kitty's food started attracting ants (ick). Crystal did everything she could to help the situation and even recommended several pet-friendly methods of extermination. I was so impressed at the lengths she took to ensure my cat was taken care of in that situation. Love her! Would book again in a heartbeat!”
“Samantha was professional, friendly and personable. She took extra great care of my pets!! I felt very at ease leaving her in charge. She went above and beyond. She took pics and sent a note everyday as well. I appreciate having had met such a caring sitter through Rover and will definitely contact again if she is available!”

About: I’ve been in love with dogs since I can remember, and my favorite type of work/volunteering has always involved them. When I was 15 I started dog sitting for my family friend, I watched and walked little Johnny twice a week for almost 2 years while his mom was out doing errands. After that, I started volunteering at the LoveJoy Foundation, an animal rescue in California. I walked dogs, cleaned crates, and even helped with vaccinations once a week at adoption events! My time at LoveJoy was one of the most rewarding experiences ever, and it taught me how to work with different types of dogs and different behaviors, including neurodivergent and disabled pups. I have a family dog of my own, sweet Montana, who will always be my best friend no matter how far apart we are. Montana is a bit older now, so we mostly enjoy hanging out on the couch together, but in his prior years I loved taking him on hikes, to the dog beach, and really anywhere that I went. I also have a crested gecko named Axel! I’m currently a junior at CU Boulder, so I do have school during the week but only for about 2-3 hours each day, most of the time I’m home to care for a pup! I absolutely love being outside here in Boulder, it’s too beautiful not to be, so walks and adventures are plentiful! I have a large house for your pup to roam around, but if it’s preferred that he stays in a crate during the day I can accommodate that too! My yard isn’t fenced, but we would have a lot of outside time at the park and on walks exploring all corners of Boulder. I do have experience dog sitting in client’s homes, I know that some dogs are probably more comfortable staying in their own home!
About: Hi, I'm Andi! I’ve been a dog person for as long as I can remember, and for 13 years I had my own dog by my side. I raised him on my own through all kinds of homes and lifestyle changes, from apartments to houses, with big yards and with no yard at all so I know that every dog (and owner!) has their own routine, personality, and needs. Over the years, I’ve also regularly cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs, both in their homes and in mine. I genuinely love having a dog around the house, and enjoy the company, the personality, the walks, and even the little quirks that make them who they are. After losing my own dog, I’m not quite ready to make the commitment to bringing another dog into my life permanently. But I’ve realized I’d love to fill that space by welcoming other people’s dogs into my home and giving them the same kind of care and attention I’d want for my own. My goal is for your dog to feel comfortable, safe, and at home while they’re with me. I’m happy to follow your usual routines, whether that means lots of walks and playtime, a cozy spot on the couch, medication or special instructions, or simply plenty of companionship. I know leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful, so I want you to feel confident that they’re in good hands and that they’ll get plenty of love while you’re away! work from home four days a week, so I’m home with plenty of flexibility throughout the day. On the days I go into the office, I’m typically gone for about four hours or less, so I’m home more often than not. I’m an early riser and am very used to starting the day with a dog’s morning walk. I also have easy access to grass for quick potty breaks throughout the day, in addition to regular walks and playtime. Even on weekends, when I might go for a run, hike, or bike ride, I’m generally home for most of the day working on projects or relaxing. Overall, my schedule gives me plenty of time and flexibility to give dogs attention, exercise, companionship, and plenty of opportunities to get outside. I take pet safety and comfort seriously and want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I’m attentive to each dog’s personality, routine, energy level, and any special instructions from their owner. My home is clean, comfortable, and dog-friendly, with easy access to grass for potty breaks and plenty of opportunities for walks, exercise, and companionship. I’m home most of the time, so dogs aren’t typically left alone for long stretches. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, including feeding, walks, medications, and house rules. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your dog is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“Stephanie was absolutely wonderful! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly kind, responsive, and communicative from start to finish, and she sent thoughtful updates throughout the day that gave me so much peace of mind. My dog, Nellie, can be pretty sensitive, and Stephanie was so patient and caring with her. It’s clear she has a natural way with dogs and creates an environment where they feel safe and comfortable. I felt completely at ease leaving Nellie in her care, which is saying a lot. I would recommend Stephanie without hesitation and will absolutely book with her again!”
“Perfect stay for our Nina. She was taken for walks, we received photos of Nina’s happy day. Trust worthy person, we highly recommend her. Nina was wagging her tail each morning that they me! Perfection. Thank you for taking good care of Nina!!”
About: I have grown up with dogs and have loved them for all of my life. I have experience in pet sitting for neighbors and relatives and would like to branch out. I am currently work at a veterinary clinic in addition to classes. Spending time with dogs, while out on an adventure or chilling on the couch is something I have always loved doing. I provide standard dog care and other duties, and am capable of giving medications if need be. I have a special place for my heart for dogs of all sizes breeds and ages.
“Tigran was easy to communicate with and was able to take care of Ruby on short notice. It seems she had a great time and was well taken care of!”
“Rui was amazing with my two pups. I was nervous about leaving them as they are still puppies and can be a handful, plus they have never spent time away. But Rui took great care of them for the day. We hit traffic and were late picking them up and she was so understanding and kind. I will definitely use Rui again.”
About: My family has owned all kinds of animals throughout my life. We’ve had geckos, dogs, cats, fish, and more. My exposure to this wide array of animals makes me the perfect pet sitter for whatever your family needs. I am comfortable with overnight stays, feeding, bathing, drop in visits, and more. Anything your pet needs, I’m happy to provide! I am currently a student at CU Boulder missing my puppies back at home more than anything. I have a pretty light class schedule this semester and would love nothing more than to spend my extra time with your animals! I am located walking distance from Chautauqua park and go there almost daily. I’d love the company of your pups and have sooo much love waiting for them. I have a fenced side yard and love walking distance from many walking trails. If your pets were staying with me, I’d take them on walks daily and be home with them majority of the day to let them out when needed. I also have a large car, so vehicle transportation to/from your home is available. If staying at a clients home, I would make time for whatever is necessary for your pet. I am flexible to your needs and highly adaptable to what works best for you and your pets!
“Caroline B. was absolutely wonderful to our pup. She took her for 3 walks and was very communicative, including multiple pictures and various updates during the duration of the day. We would definitely recommend Caroline B. and will use her again during future travels.”
About: I moved to Boulder last year and love to explore the trails around town! I am a big trail runner, so happy to take high energy pups with me out on the trails! I work in healthcare, so I have a very variable schedule. When I'm not working, I am spending as much time outside as possible and am happy for your pet to accompany me! I have a large, fenced in backyard that I'm sure your pup would love to explore! My home is clean and dog friendly! I have experience with dogs with various medical needs, so happy to support whatever your pup needs.
About: I’ve had a lifelong love for animals and a natural connection with both dogs and cats and bring over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies who need structure and playtime to senior pets who need patience and comfort, I know how to adapt to each animal’s unique needs. At home, I share life with my goofy golden retriever and a sassy tuxedo cat, who both love other animals. My approach is calm, reliable, and intuitive, I take the time to make every pet feel safe, loved, and understood. I can help with training, daily walks, or providing company while you’re away, and I’ll treat your pets like family and keep you updated every step of the way. I work from home so have flexibility in my daily routine. Most afternoons and evenings in particular work well for me for any type of care. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, I focus on creating an environment that matches each animal’s personality and comfort level. I have plenty of engaging ways to channel energy for playful or high energy pets, through walks, games, training reinforcement, or enrichment toys while also providing patience and affection for mellow or cuddly companions who prefer a slower pace. I will treat your pets and your home with the same respect I would give mine!
“Crystal was amazing. She was willing and able to accommendate my early schedule at the last minute and my dog was so happy when I arrived. He seemed to have a blast and she sent me updates about how he was doing. I will definitely be a returning! Thank you.”
“Peanut is a rescue dog, we adopted him back in 2021 and since then today was the first time he got to spend the day away from home, away from us. I found Sarah at Rover, texted her, she instantly texted me back. Last week we did a meet & greet and today I left him there for few hours. Of course I was the nervous one. I picked him up and he came home with a big smile on his face. Looking forward to come back! Thank you Sarah.”

“Moose loved his long walk and I’m impressed by how much ground you two covered. I gotta step up my game. I’m super grateful that Nora was available to take him out mid day.”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life, including cats, dogs, and for the past two years I’ve lived on a farm where I have gained experience caring for many different types of animals. We also double as a kitten rescue, taking in lost and abandoned kittens from newborns through teenagers. We bottle-feed, raise, and care for them until they are healthy, grown, and ready to be adopted into loving homes. I am extremely passionate about healthy and safe animal care and ensure that in my work. I am a college student and recently moved away from home and my farm, and the first priority on my list was getting back into work with animals. Being at CU I am occupied in the mornings and late afternoon. Anywhere between 11am-1pm I am free in between classes, and anytime after 4/5pm at night. I care for pets with patience, attention, and lots of love while making sure they feel safe and comfortable in their environment. Having cared for cats, dogs, reptiles, and a variety of farm animals, I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, providing fresh water, cleaning up after pets, giving them exercise and playtime, and keeping a close eye on their behavior and well-being. Through helping my mom run our farm and caring for rescued kittens, including newborns, I’ve also learned how important it is to be gentle, responsible, and attentive to each animal’s individual needs.
“Lindsay has been wonderful with our pup, Hudson! She took the time to get to know Hudson before beginning his regular walks, which gave us great peace of mind and made the transition seamless. Hudson has a lot of energy and Lindsay does an excellent job ensuring he gets the exercise and activity he needs. She is also highly responsive, organized and proactive with scheduling, which we greatly appreciate. We’ve had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend Lindsay to anyone looking for a reliable, caring and professional dog walker”
“Talia was fantastic! Super communicative, responsive, reliable, and kind. My dogs loved her and I trusted that they were in good hands. I would definitely book again.”
“Jennifer has been so amazing with our dog and so amazing with our schedule. We have had several dog walkers, which were all great, but Jennifer always seems to go above and beyond for us and our pup.”
About: My love for animals exceeds my love for humans. I have always been the biggest animals person and have owned every animal in the book, from rodents to fish to mammals. I have raised multiple puppies to adulthood, both small dogs like Maltese, and large dogs like pit bulls. I am a renowned hamster sitter who even had baby hamsters at one point, and currently have three fish tanks in my college apartment. Point is I love animals and would love to hang out and give your pet the best time ever! I have a lot of time throughout my day. The longest I am out of the house for pre day is 2 hours for classes occasionally, but other than that I am home and bored. Pet care would easily fit into my schedule to ensure your pet has the best experience with me. Caring for pets in my home would be very simple as I would just aim to make them as comfortable and safe as possible. In terms of pet care at your home, I would be the best house sitter. I will ensure your home will be left in the same condition or cleaner when you return, and will ensure that your pets feels as safe and comfortable as possible.
“Great Person, patient & kind dog walker, always responsible and on time. Kim helped me out nearly every day for two weeks while I recovered from surgery. She's easy to communicate with and a pleasure to greet at the door each day. Would definitely hire her again.”
About: With a background in behavioral health and outdoor leadership, I bring a calm, dependable, and thoughtful approach to pet care. I’m experienced with active and anxious dogs alike and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality, routines, and needs. Safety, communication, and making pets feel comfortable and cared for are always my priorities. I am currently working as a part-time therapist, so in between seeing clients I have the flexibility to care for your animals.

I also make sure to keep things clean and organized, including litter boxes, food areas, and any pet-related messes. While I’m there, I focus on giving pets calm, attentive care and regular companionship so they feel secure while their owner is away. I’m happy to provide updates as often as the owner prefers, including photos and notes about how things are going.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13, primarily caring for cats and dogs. My experience includes dog walking, feeding, playtime, administering basic routines, and cleaning litter boxes. I’ve especially worked with older cats and dogs, so I understand the extra patience, attentiveness, and gentle care they often need. I also have two cats of my own back home, giving me firsthand experience in daily responsibilities and expectations of being a pet owner. Because of this, I’m very mindful about my care towards your pet! I’m currently a second-year, first-generation student at CU Boulder, balancing school and a Work-Study position. I’m generally available Thursday through Monday after 1 PM and can be flexible with advance notice. When I house sit I treat every home with respect, focusing on your pet while you’re away. I understand leaving your home and furry friend to a stranger can be worrisome so I do my best to comfort your pet and keep your space the way you like it.
“Marcia was great with our dog. It is not an "easy" dog; she has reaction issues with other dogs and strange people. However, since the first day, Marcia has been able to connect with her, and everything has been perfect. Thank you so much Marcia”
About: Growing up, I have always been surrounded by pets. I currently have five dogs and two cats at home, so I’m very comfortable with all types of animals. I’m a student at the University of Colorado Boulder with a flexible schedule between classes, which allows me to take dogs on walks, hang out with them, or spend time with them based on your preferences. Neighbors often rely on me to help take care of their dogs, trusting me to provide attentive and responsible care. Please feel free to reach out if you’re interested! I’m currently a student at CU Boulder with a very flexible schedule. Since I’ve completed the majority of my requirements, I have no classes on Mondays and Wednesdays, and only 1-2 classes on the other weekdays. I’m also free on weekends, which gives me plenty of time to take care of pets. Between classes, I’m available to walk dogs, feed them, or simply spend time with them to make sure they’re comfortable and happy throughout the day. I care for pets by making sure their needs are met based on the specific service requested. At home or at the client’s place, I provide regular walks, feeding, and plenty of attention to keep them comfortable and happy. I also make sure their environment is safe and clean, and I follow any special instructions from the owner regarding medication, exercise, or behavior. My goal is to create a calm and positive experience for the pets, whether it’s a quick visit or longer care during the day.

We loved the photo updates and knowing how Bella was doing. I highly recommend them. She will be back with them again soon!”

About: My dog is my top priority, and yours will be too! I’m able to take your dog on hikes, runs, and have some fun time with my almost 2 year old husky/heeler mix. Lots of cuddles, exercise, and fun time, while ensuring proper dog to dog boundaries. I have experience caring for dogs from puppies to seniors. I work from home full time, and so am able to provide care for your pets throughout the day. I am unable to care for dogs under 1 year old. Additionally your dog must be: 1) dog friendly, with no history of aggression towards dogs 2) people friendly 3) house trained 4) sleeps through the night I have a fenced yard and one playful two year old husky/heeler mix. Care can include yard play time, leashed walks, hikes, or runs, depending on the needs of your dog! I am also able to keep up with training and obedience with your dog, whether that includes reactivity, leash walking, jumping etc. A meet and greet is required before I am able to book new dogs.
“Della is fantastic! We trust her completely to care for our anxious pup. She is very responsible and in addition to helping him with training, she has helped him socialize with other dogs very well. We have booked her repeatedly and now our dog practically runs to her place because he is so excited to stay with her!”
“Liliana was excellent in taking care of our dog on short notice. Frequent walks and updates on how he was doing were punctual and informative. A truly caring boarder that I highly recommend.”
“Madeline took wonderful care of George during our wedding weekend! We needed some extra help since George was a part of our big day. Maddy helped make sure that George was exercised, and then transferred to our wedding day handler. George had a great time, we had a bunch of pictures that made us feel good and everything was super smooth. Would 100% recommend!”
“We had a great experience with Alex. He is very kind and is a dog lover. He was great with communication and drop off pickup and being flexible with our times. He let us enjoy our trip but sent a few messages and took amazing photos of our dog Chip. He was thoughtful and gave us some prints and a magnet of his photography of our cutie pup Chip. We will definitely be using Alex again. Thank you!”
“Steve and his family were amazing! They took care of our dog Walter and he had the best time with them. We received updates and photos throughout the weekend and a little drawing of Walter to take home! Highly recommend Steve and will send Walter back again soon!”
“Jessica was amazing! My old lab came home happy. Jessica sent photos daily, was very communicative about pick up and drop off and took great care of Ruby. I will be booking with Jessica again!”
“Kimberly was incredible with my dogs. One is terrified of fireworks so we were hesitant to leave her over the Fourth of July. Kimberly got her cozy with a sound machine and lots of love. My other dog is a paralyzed high maintenance gal and Kimberly didn’t shy away from learning her routine at all. I can’t tell you what a relief it is to leave your babies and not be worried about them the whole time. And she sent lots of sweet photos! Thank you!”
