CJ was awesome with sending pics and updates. We had an awesome trip knowing he was in wonderful care and look forward to booking with CJ in the future. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Took amazing care of my dog! Gave her lots of time outside and even a run. The boys are kind and gentle with pets, will 100% be rebooking again.”
“Here’s a polished version that keeps your tone warm and appreciative: **Revised Review:** Sam was absolutely fantastic to work with! My dog is 20 years old and is blind, deaf, and incontinent, so he’s not the easiest pup to care for. But Sam didn’t hesitate to take on the job. She took wonderful care of him and sent me photos of him enjoying his time with her adorable little pug. I will definitely use Sam again in the future to care for my old guy!”
“Nick is a great communicator! He sends daily updates and checks if we need anything prior to the visit. He is very responsive and our dog loves playing in his yard with his dog. Would highly recommend!”
“This was our first time having our dogs stay with Danielle, and I really cannot say enough kind things about her. From the first time we met with her she was welcoming, and made me feel very at ease with leaving our dogs with her. It was evident they were well taken care of, enjoyed lots of outdoor activity time, and lots of cuddles! Loved getting pictures every day showing how much fun they were having. Both dogs came home EXHAUSTED, which we know means they had a great time!”
“Kari was great and super easy to communicate with! She took great care of Lakota and we felt comfortable knowing she was in great care! We would use her again and highly recommend her as a sitter.”
“This is the second time Falafel has stayed with Erin - I was so glad she was able to take him last minute for the holiday weekend.

“Jennifer always takes the BEST care of our dog, Lilo! She sends updates and cute pictures daily and we always know that Lilo is having a wonderful time with her and her family. Jennifer is kind, communicative, and easy to coordinate with. We cannot recommend her enough!!! 💕”
“Another perfect stay with Tiffany! We definitely appreciated her flexibility as our plans changed more than once! Fitz goes crazy when we pull up to her house! Daily pictures were appreciated too, thanks Tiffany!!”
“I had an early flight and a late return due to weather. Chris and Diane were insanely accommodating and very sweet. Normally my dog has been pretty rattled when I come back from a trip and he’s been boarded. Bodhi was in good spirits and not traumatized. I highly recommend them.”
“Tiffany was amazing with Taco - super flexible about pick up and drop off times and great at updating me about him throughout the weekend. They got to go for some walks and have lots of snuggles and Taco returned a very happy boy!!”
“Nicole and Chris took great care of Bandit while we had to go out of town! If you’re looking for a wonderful family to watch your pet, I highly recommend!! Will definitely be doing business again in the future!”
“Janet took such good care of our dog! She communicated regularly which gave me comfort and clearly treated Nala as her own. We're so pleased and grateful for her. We've already booked our dog's next stay. I know I've found a real gem! I would highly recommend Janet to anyone wanting quality, kind, personalized attention for their dog.”
“Emily and Andrew took such great care of my pup and I was able to enjoy my vacation that much more knowing he was being loved and cared for. I received daily pictures, updates and even a video of Mele exploring. I will 100% be booking with this amazing family again - thank you so much!”
“Kaylee is AMAZING! She went above and beyond taking care of our dog over a long weekend! She did so many different activities with him and sent us multiple pictures and updates every day! We cannot thank her enough for taking such good care of our dog! We highly recommend her and can’t wait to use her again in the future!!”
“This is the second time we've had Lisa take care of our dog, Atlas. She's great and we love the updates we receive. Atlas really enjoys his stay with them!”
About: I work in education and have summers (and holiday stretches) off. My dog recently passed away. He was a large / elderly / mobility-assisted / diapered / blind / medicated dog I had adopted almost 8 years ago. I had adopted a hospice dog in 2023 as well - she was a large breed with multiple cancers, so I am also familiar with that type of end of life care. I love dogs. I have used Rover often and now I would love the chance to use our empty home this summer to pet sit for others! I have an open summer! I work in education and have summers off. I do not have a schedule that I must adhere to. This is a flexible time for me. There are no other pets in our home. I know this is important for some to feel content with their pet being cared for, so this might fill a need that is harder to find!

“Nicole was everything I look for in a great pet caregiver. She went above and beyond and her energy is wonderful. My cats were happy to see her I’m sure. I will use her again and highly recommend her.”
“Kristy and her two daughters were so amazing taking care of my two cats! I was gone for a week and they visited everyday and left me detailed notes about my cats eating habits and their activity and their general demeanor! They always attached more than one photo which i really valued because i love seeing my sweet cats happy and well cared for! I will definitely book with them again in the future and i recommend them to anyone looking for great care!”
“Cami took excellent care of our two cats while we were out of state for over a week. She is a great communicator and on top of it. I could relax while were gone knowing they were in good hands.”
“Kelly has been caring for Hubert a few times now this year, as I take trips. She is so reliable, thorough, and attentive, and my cat loves her! She’s very knowledgeable about feline enrichment, which is a bonus.”
“Maia is the best!! My cats were so well taken care of while we were away. They love playing w her. And she cleaned up around the house too!! She really goes above and beyond!!”
“This is our second time having Tina drop in on our cats while we’re traveling. She’s super responsible and always provides thorough updates on how our cats are doing. I also really appreciate how much she knows about cat body language; one of our cats is quite shy and Tina is great with her! Highly recommend!”
“Kathy was able to come last minute when our travel plans were disrupted. We always appreciate Kathy's updates when we are out on vacation to give us peace of mind that our little one is doing well!”
About: I've always adored cats, but I was unable to have one growing up, since my dad had allergies. Because of this, I was eager to cat-sit anytime the need arose for friends and coworkers. I live in my own place now, but I'm still very happy to meet new cats and help take care of them. I will treat your cat with the love and respect it needs! I have also owned pet birds for many years, so if you happen to have those, I'm happy to look after them, too!
“Karly was an awesome sitter for my cats Ghost and Pepper! Pepper has always hid and refused to eat when we had a new sitter and watching him (he’s a bit dramatic and skittish) but he warmed up to Karly quickly and was walking up to her for pets within days I almost couldn’t believe it! I came home to two happy and healthy cats after a 10 day vacation and I’m so grateful for the quality of care Karly gave my babies while I was gone. She was also very communicative, on time, and took lots of pics and videos of my babies so I had total peace of mind while gone. Anytime I need someone to watch my cats again Karly will be my first choice!”
“Laura went above and beyond when caring for my kitty! She was patient and loving. My little Minnie warmed up to her by the end and seemed to enjoy her visits a lot. I will go out of my way to use Laura again!”
“Great drop in service for our two cats. Courtney is trustworthy, communicative, and gave us a lot of peace of mind during an extended time away from home.”
“Sean did an awesome job taking care of my cat while I was away! My cat loves him! He was super helpful with tasks like rolling out our garbage cans and watering our plants. He made sure to take TONS of photos. Including ones of her food and water bowls. This really gives me peace of mine. He was also very flexible when the auto door lock malfunctioned and came back at a different time. I appreciate him so much and can't wait to book him again!”
“Anna was amazing! She did an awesome job watching our cats, Charlie and Ember. She even let our little parrot out and let him sit on her during her visits! Very friendly too! Literally didn’t have to worry about anything while away on vacation! Thank you Anna! :’)”
“Jasmine did such a great job dropping in with my girls! She kept me posted each day-keeping their water bowls full and cleaning the litter boxes. There were lots of pets and playtime. My cats also need several medications, but it was a breeze with all of her support. I was able to enjoy my vacation feeling that my furbies were in great hands. Will definitely be hiring her for any future needs!”
“Alyssa did an amazing job looking after our 2 cats, who have to be kept separately right now, while we were out of town. We appreciated the regular photos and updates, and the fact she was willing to give them both attention and play time separately. We will definitely ask Alyssa to look after our kitties again!”
“Jessica went above and beyond to take care of my cat!! I felt super safe with her in my home and around my sweet kitty. I would book her again in a heartbeat! Highly recommended!”

“We left our puppy Eila with Sam for daycare for 3 days and she did an incredible job! It was our first time leaving our puppy with someone else and she made sure to make us feel reassured and sent lots of photos throughout the day. By day 3, our puppy was running up to Sam’s door excited for her day with her! Her pug Stella is also so sweet and got along great with Eila. I would definitely trust her and recommend her!”
“Victoria was absolutely incredible with my dogs! Both of my pups have special needs—one wears a diaper and the other has limited mobility in her back legs—which can honestly be a lot to manage. But Victoria handled everything with so much patience, care, and genuine affection. She didn’t just meet their physical needs; she went above and beyond to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I could tell she was attentive and truly present with them throughout the day. It’s such a relief to find someone who not only understands the extra care required but embraces it with a kind heart. I can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I would love to take care of your dog! I’ve been taking care of pets for years, including my rescue girl, Cactus. Big, small, old, young - I’m confident I can meet your pet’s needs. I run most days and love to hike, so can take your dog on adventures if they prefer. I’m also happy to cuddle on the couch if that’s more their vibe. I work from home full time, so I am flexible to hang out with your pet on the schedule that works best with both you and them. I live in a house with a backyard that has plenty of room for playing! My dog Cactus is three years old and is extremely friendly. She’s playful with dogs that are interested in playing but is very cognizant of leaving other dogs alone if they want to chill. I live with my partner who works from home full time.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the start, they were flexible with both drop off and pick up times, which made our day so much less stressful. They sent picture updates that kept us feeling connected and reassured. Our pup recently had surgery for torn CCL’s and they monitored her activity making sure there was no jumping or rough play while still keeping her happy with love and attention. I was surprised by how excited our pup was to arrive, which is rare since she typically doesn’t like being left anywhere. Seeing her tail wag going into a new place and her happy, relaxed demeanor at pickup said it all. She clearly felt comfortable and cared for. We’re so grateful to have found such a wonderful sitter and will definitely be booking with them again!”
About: I basically grew up in a zoo (the fun kind), and caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I graduated from an animal training program in my 20s, spent three years as a vet tech (I love exotics too), and now work as an RN, so your pets are in very attentive, capable hands. Over the past four years, I’ve fostered 50+ dogs, helping them feel safe, loved, and totally spoiled while they waited for their forever homes. I’m the friend everyone calls when they need a pet sitter… and I’d love to be that person for you, too! Pet care is woven into my everyday life. As a longtime foster, my days naturally revolve around walks, training, and snuggles. I am not a certified trainer, but I love to incorporate the basics for every animal in my care. This includes training with walks. Working as an RN has made me highly organized and attentive to routines, so I'm very comfortable sticking to feeding times, medication schedules, and special care instructions. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, crate time, medication, and training cues. With my background in animal training and experience as a vet tech, I'm confident handling different temperaments, reinforcing positive behaviors, and monitoring for signs of stress or illness. On walks, I focus on structured, safe outings that are both enriching and fun. I use secure leashing, stay aware of surroundings, and tailor the pace to your dog's energy level and needs. (I'm also a runner if they enjoy that).
“David & Dawn are wonderful! You can tell they genuinely care about the dogs having a good time together. They listen to your needs and make sure you align with them as well! Great people!”
“Mari is always wonderful to Bentley. She provides a loving and safe home and Bentley enjoys playing with her Luna. Bentley is always excited to to see Luna and Mari.”
“Kristin is truly amazing. She is such a lovely person and looks after Maya so well. Maya even did the excited wiggles and kisses when she saw her! ( she is very picky with her kisses) I highly recommend Kristen to anyone and I feel so comfortable with her looking after my pup. If I could give more stars I would! Thank you so much.”

About: Hi, I'm Red! Growing up on a small farm I started caring for animals at a young age. My mom was an animal lover and we became the "Vet House" of the neighborhood. I have taken care of animals of all sizes ranging from birds, reptiles and rodents all the way up to horses. I love them all! I have always had dogs and cats because a house without them just isn't a home! I care for many of my friends dogs while they are away both in my home and theirs. I would love to give your pets the TLC they need when you can't be there for them :) I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is very flexible. While you are away I can come to your home to care for and love your babies. My family and I walk and hike a lot, as well as take our dogs to the dog park frequently. I am happy to take your pups out to stretch their legs and if preferred, socialize with other dogs. I can also administer medication to your pets if necessary. We have two dogs and four chickens who all get along very well! Our chickens are secured in a run so if I ever bring your pups to my house to play they can sniff all they want but won't get in. My dogs are loving, playful and our big one, Rammer Jammer, LOVES other dogs, all sizes. Our small one, Moose, is what we call the "No Fun Police". He likes to make sure everyone stays in line ;P They are both great with others. There are always two giant bowls of water for them, one indoors and one out. Our yard is large and fenced in so they can run amuck!
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and grew up surrounded by pets, so having furry friends around just feels like home to me! 🐾 I’m very comfortable caring for dogs and genuinely love giving them lots of attention, playtime, and affection. I currently have two happy, friendly pups and a cat of my own, and they absolutely love making new friends! To make sure everyone stays safe and has the best time, I care for small to medium-sized dogs so they’re a great match for my pups’ size and play style. Your dog will have built-in playmates and be treated like part of the family from the moment they arrive—expect plenty of tail wags, playtime, and cuddles! PLEASE NOTE For the safety and comfort of all the pups in my care, I currently accept dogs up to 25 lbs so everyone is well-matched in size and play style. 🐶 Since I work from home full-time, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day to provide consistent attention, supervision, and plenty of playtime and potty breaks. My schedule is very flexible, so I can easily adapt to each dog’s needs and routine. If I do need to step out for a quick errand, I’m never gone for more than about 2 hours, so your pup will never be left alone for long. Overall, your dog will have lots of company, care, and attention all day long! I care for pets in my home as if they were my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved from the moment they arrive. I follow each dog’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and any special instructions. Since I work from home, they get plenty of supervision, attention, and playtime throughout the day. My home is a calm, pet-friendly environment, and my dogs love having friendly companions to play with. I also make sure every pup gets individual attention, whether that’s cuddles, quiet time, or play, depending on their personality and needs.
About: As a mom and past pet owner myself I understand being worried about how your children get treated, and that’s why I would love to care, love, and have patience for them, just how I would appreciate other people doing it for my kids I’m a stay at home mom, and it would allow me to do something that I love while everyone else in the house is home for work. While also living with the pet lovers that my 20 yr daughter and partner are. I make sure they feel comfortable with my presence firstly, try to get them to trust me with some pets, treats or lots of cute words. I also feed them, making sure to comply with all of their diet requirements, give them lots of water to drink, brush their hair, and make sure to keep them estimulated with toys and pets. With also the essential recurring walks every 2-4 house to tire them out and let them take a lovely nap on the couches at home. Sending them home with some treats and lots of love hoping they come back may day the care is needed.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 and treated them as my own child! I’m experienced with medications and injuries as my own two babies have battled bronchitis and hip surgery. Family and friends rely on me for dietary and overall health of their furkids! My fur kid is my world! *Boarding and Daycare services include a daily walk (weather permitting) (This is a child free home). I’m currently working part-time and am usually home (working remotely) 2 days a week and half days the other 3. My schedule is very flexible. I walk my dogs almost daily and they have a large fenced backyard to play and roam. There is a park next to my home with many trails and parks within a 5 mile radius.
“Erin was so great with our dog! Easy in and easy out and he had a marvelous time! Convenient location in LoDo on the edge of downtown but not directly IN it, so was so easy to hop on I-25 to take him home. Our dog was definitely all smiles!”
About: I truly love dogs and will make sure you and your pet are comfortable in my care while you are away. I adapt to their schedules quickly whether that’s feeding time, exercise, snuggles, car rides, etc. I have a perfect house with a fenced in yard where they can go in and out of the house as they please. I live an active lifestyle and look forward to giving them a daily walk and nightly belly rubs. I value communication and will make sure you receive timely updates and pictures so you can have peace of mind and reduce stress. I will make sure I care for them as if they are my own and prioritize my time with them. I currently work from home so will be available during both days and nights to make sure the pet has human interaction, is always fed on schedule, and has ample bathroom and play time breaks. I am an active person and would love to take them on a walk or play fetch if that fits into the dogs schedule as well. I live in a house in a safe and comfortable neighborhood with a fenced in yard, doggie door, and grass for them to run around and play. I don’t have any other pets in the house so my time with the pet would be my priority at all times.
“Michele is an absolute all-star when it comes to dogs! It was my first time dropping my girl off at day care so I was a bit nervous, especially since she's a very active 4 month old Great Dane. As soon as we got there and I saw the luxurious set-up for the dogs, all my worries went out the window. Galaga was a little nervous since it was a new place, but once she saw the massive area she could run around in and got to meet the other dogs, she was ready to zoom around! Michele sent me photos of her playing with the other dogs and there was even another Great Dane and another 4 month old puppy! By the time I picked Galaga up, she was so happy playing around but also happy to see me (thank god haha) and she was pooped from her fun day at day care. I won't take Galaga anywhere else because I know how much she is cared for and enjoys the spacious area and other dogs!”

“We are so happy that David was able to walk our pup on a day we would be gone most of the day. We came home to a very happy and tired our boy. We look forward to working more with David in the future.”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets from as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs, I currently have 3, whom I love dearly. Meeting new pets and taking care of them make me extremely happy. Dropping in on doggies and cats is my job. I throughly enjoy walking, playing, and taking care of animals. It’s something I look forward to every day. I make sure to clean up after myself after every visit. I’ll communicate with the owner throughout my visits, asking questions when I have them or letting the owners know if there are any problems while they are away.
About: We are Jeni and Ashlie- we have been loving dog parents who have experience caring for dogs for most of our lives. We have raised three rescue dogs together who aged from 10 to 14 years, with varying training and health needs. We are also experienced with sitting dogs for friends and family members, up to one month at a time. We are a family of 4 with two young kids who are not ready to commit to a dog of our own again, yet, and instead would like to spend time loving yours while you’re away! With us, your dog will be treated as one of our family members as long as they are with us. For in-home care, dogs must be friendly, well-behaved, potty trained, young children and family oriented. Well behaved means no digging, chewing or pottying in the home. While we have experience with territorial and reactive dogs, due to children in the home, there is a zero tolerance to aggressive behaviors towards children or people. We are experienced with dogs of all ages and sizes, and children will be monitored for positive interactions with dogs in our care. No cat care provided due to allergies. While we work full-time, we are lucky to work from home a few days per week. We also have a dog door if your pup is fully trustable with free roam in the backyard and house. Fenced yard - large yard; No other dogs in home, we have fish; Family environment; Dog door available, if appropriate; Can crate dog if preferred
“Caleb came through last minute when we needed help. He showed up within an hour and handled our 125lb Saint Bernese mix like a pro. Reliable, responsive, and great with big dogs, we’ll definitely be booking him again.”
“So happy my elderly dog can get her daily walks in. Lanae is prompt and always shares a bit about the walk. Her time is greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend her.”
“Amelia was amazing with our dog! I booked a last-minute walk and she was kind and easy to work with. She sent pictures and gave me an update and my animals were so happy when I got home!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I’m a proud cat mom to two very spoiled kitties, grew up surrounded by dogs, and for the past 9 years I’ve been dog sitting for my wonderful hair clients on the side. What started as helping out a few clients turned into years of trusted, tail-wagging friendships. I truly love getting to know each pet’s personality — whether they’re energetic and goofy, shy and snuggly, or a little bit sassy. I’m attentive, patient, and treat every home and pet like they’re my own. You can count on lots of love, playtime, updates, and the kind of care that lets you travel with total peace of mind. I’m a self-employed hair stylist and some weeks are busier than others, so since I make my own schedule, I’m able to book appointments with a range of flexibility. I can’t have other pets in my home because of the stress it brings my kitties, but when I come to my client’s homes, I’m happy to cuddle with your fur babies or crate if needed.
“Justina is always so great with my dog! She’s amazing with communication and following any directions I leave. (Who h can be a lot for my needy fur baby) Thanks for always being great and loving with him!”
“Needed a last-minute dog walker and she was so good with our dog, Wally! Will be booking again for sure. The pics of our dog (plus bonus cat pics) are now saved to my phone lol”
About: Providing safe, reliable, and loving care for dogs as if they were my own! Dogs have always been a part of my life whether it's through my immediate and/or extended family. I treat every dog with patience, kindness, and respect, following their routine carefully and providing regular updates to owners. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I work weekends (friday-sunday) so I have a lot of time on my hands to be available to assist in potty breaks, walks and playtime ! I first ensure the dogs' boundaries are respected. I am comfortable with introductions in order to gain trust (I've had to do this in the past for family members).
“Roxanna & Mark are wonderful and reliable people. We feel very comfortable having them watch our home and pet, and highly recommend them! We feel luck to have met them and are grateful for their help! 10/10!”
About: I have several years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with daily routines, feeding schedules, walks, basic grooming, and providing loving companionship. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work part time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to prioritize walks, feedings, drop ins, and quality time throughout the day. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care to ensure they receive consistent attention, exercise, and supervision. Pet care will never be rushed, I make sure pets will get the care and attention they deserve while owners are away. Because I offer walks, drop in, and pet sitting, I take safety and trust very seriously when caring for pets. I follow all instructions provided by owners, respect their space, and make sure pets feel comfortable in a familiar environment. I always secure doors, gates, and leashes, use approved walking routes, and never introduce pets to unfamiliar animals or situations. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel completely at ease!
“Anna is a great walker! She sent me pictures and kept me updated through the app. I got lucky to have her walk my 90 pound Doberman. Will definitely have her walk Journey again!”

Both dogs came home EXHAUSTED, which we know means they had a great time!”

“Emily and Andrew took such great care of my pup and I was able to enjoy my vacation that much more knowing he was being loved and cared for. I received daily pictures, updates and even a video of Mele exploring. I will 100% be booking with this amazing family again - thank you so much!”
“Kaylee is AMAZING! She went above and beyond taking care of our dog over a long weekend! She did so many different activities with him and sent us multiple pictures and updates every day! We cannot thank her enough for taking such good care of our dog! We highly recommend her and can’t wait to use her again in the future!!”
“This is the second time we've had Lisa take care of our dog, Atlas. She's great and we love the updates we receive. Atlas really enjoys his stay with them!”
About: I work in education and have summers (and holiday stretches) off. My dog recently passed away. He was a large / elderly / mobility-assisted / diapered / blind / medicated dog I had adopted almost 8 years ago. I had adopted a hospice dog in 2023 as well - she was a large breed with multiple cancers, so I am also familiar with that type of end of life care. I love dogs. I have used Rover often and now I would love the chance to use our empty home this summer to pet sit for others! I have an open summer! I work in education and have summers off. I do not have a schedule that I must adhere to. This is a flexible time for me. There are no other pets in our home. I know this is important for some to feel content with their pet being cared for, so this might fill a need that is harder to find!
“Thank you so much for taking great care of our pups! They are worn out!❤️ And they smell so good! Thank you for bathing them, too! We are looking forward to having you watch them again!❤️”
“Our corgi Bonnie-Jo clearly had the time of her life with Nicole! She was well cared for, and we got great updates during her multi-night stay with Nicole. We are so glad to have a place for our girl to go if we need a sitter!”
“Linda was great with Jeter! She had a wonderful yard that he could play in. She sent photos and updates and Jeter had a wonderful time. We look forward to working with Linda again!”
“This was our second time leaving our Australian Shepherd with Tiffany and we will definitely be using her again. She’s very responsive and I could tell that our dog had a wonderful time!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby with Erica and Dhana. They are both dog lovers and understood how important she was to me. She got lots of walks and attention - just what she craves! Highly recommended!”
“Brenda took great care of Eva! She spent the first day at home to be sure Eva felt comfortable in her temporary home. She sent many pictures of Eva watching tv and napping on the couch. Eva even ate, on other occasions she would not eat for a day or two. I was very pleased with the care Eva received and will be booking with Brenda again. Thank you Brenda for piece of mind when leaving my sweet baby!”
