“We had an amazing experience with Kyle and Desiree. Their communication is excellent before and during our boys stay. Our boys were so happy and well taken care of (spoiled)! We will absolutely return to Kyle and Desiree whenever we need care for our pups!”
“Yi Ling was so wonderful to work with. This was our first time leaving our new puppy, and she kept him busy with two daily walks, plus playtime with other dogs she cares for. She gave twice daily updates on how he was doing; overall it was a great experience. I definitely plan to hire her again to care for my dog.”
“We picked our English Bulldog up at 7:45am and Jessica had everything packed up, Posey’s kennel broken down, and we were able to get right on the road for a 12 hour drive! Posey had obviously played hard because she went right to sleep. She is worn out and happy! Thanks, Jessica!”
“Ben was wonderful watching our puppy Benny for a last minute trip! He’s a great communicator with a clear love for dogs! He sent us updates about our puppy while we were gone and was super easy going! Would love to have him watch our puppy again in the future!”
“We were very happy that we found Erin and Sebastian to take care of Taz while we were on a trip. From our first meeting it was obvious they care about animals. Erin sent several updates and pictures during the week to let us know Taz was in good hands and doing fine. Will not hesitate to use them again if needed. Thanks again for your care.”
“Our pup LOVES staying with Laurel. He gets along with the dogs, cat, and kids! Laurel is very responsive and sends a lot of updates. Would definitely recommend!”
“This was the first time I've used Tamara. She did a great job with our anxious havanese, Parker, and I think he settled right in. She has a small dog herself and it sounds like they got along well. Communication was great, as well the photos she sent while we were gone. Recommend!”
“Sidney was wonderful! This was our first time using Rover and we loved it. During the 11 days away, I got updates and photos for peace of mind. It was amazing and so different from a boarding place where you’re always wondering how it’s going. Sidney is so nice and had such a cute house and sweet dogs!! Definitely will have her watch our pups again!! :)”
“This was my doodles first stay with Andrea and I was nervous. Andrea sent daily updates and pictures of him and he looked so very content and happy, my mind was at ease! He had his own space inside and enjoyed spending time outside in her big fenced in yard. Thank you Andrea for taking great care of our Doodle!”
“Great booking with Ryan and his wife. Got great updates and pictures. They have the perfect set up for dog sitting with a great yard, plenty of gates for separation, if needed, and gentle, but playful hosts.”
“Delane was very flexible with working around my holiday plans to arrange drop off and pick up times for my pup. I got regular pictures of Walnut and when I picked her up, her tail was clearly wagging and she was happy in Delane's home. Would definitely ask her to dogsit again!”
“Alejandra and Patrick offer our dog Penny a comfortable, dog-centered experience. The dogs play in the large shaded back yard and enjoy outings to a local dog park. We can’t ask for a better place for Penny when we are out of town!”
“Brittany was so communicative, caring and really came through in a pinch! My sweet Gabby girl came home so happy and well taken care of. From Gabby and us thank you so much Brittany!”
“I was new to using Rover and Darcy P. Was very patient answering my questions and taking the time to meet my dogs! Would recommend her to anyone, she's great.”
“Amber was amazing! She took such great care of Melek and was even kind enough to keep him a little longer than planned, which we really appreciated. Thank you so much for your flexibility and care”
“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!”
“Shelly is amazing! When we travel we know that Molly is in good hands, having fun and enjoying her time with other dogs. Last time Molly even made a Christmas handcraft!!!! 🥰”
About: I was raised by an animal loving family, and I've raised my family to do the same! Let us take care of your loved one while you are away. You will enjoy peace of mind knowing that your dog is in a safe and loving environment. I give daily updates and photos of your dog while they relax in our home, surrounded by love and plenty of opportunity for play on our 1 acre farmhouse property. Your dog will be cared for as if they were our own. I work part time away from home, and I am home every evening. Your dog will enjoy morning and afternoon walks, plenty of supervised play time in the yard, approved treats, and lots of cuddles! I will feed your dog according to your schedule. Your dog will be spoiled just as much as my own dog! Your dog's care will be personalized to fit your needs, and I will work with you to make sure that every comfort of home will be available. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your dog in the care of others, and I strive to make their stay feel as comfortable as possible. I recommend bringing comfort items such as favorite toys, bed, blanket, etc. so they can have something familiar while they are with us.
“Becky was great at sharing pics, responding and keeping me updated while taking care of Juju. Juju was very tired from playing when I picked her up which let me know she had a good time. Thanks Becky!”

Prices are estimates per visit for 1 cat. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I understand that with cats, trust is earned—not assumed. I’m patient, observant, and happy to meet them exactly where they are, whether they want attention, space, or to silently judge me from across the room.
About: I’ve always been trusted to take care of other’s pets while they’re away even before I was old enough to join Rover. I’ve owned all kinds of breeds, I’ve rescued and raised since kitten age. I’m comfortable with all kinds of cats, shy ones, frisky ones, lazy ones, etc. Trust me to keep your cat in safe hands! 🐾
“Our 3 cats are doing great as we return from our 1.5 week vacation. They are all have good attitudes and were comfortable in Mike’s care. We will definitely ask Mike to sit again!!”
“Kieanne took great care of my cat the photos gave me a piece of mined that everything was ok. Sonic finally came out of hiding after a few visits. I plan on hiring Kieanne again”
“Sadie was fantastic taking care of our two cats. Both have different health issues and she took great care with the all the specific needs both require. She stayed over the holidays to look after them while we were away and came back to a pair of happy, loved kitties and also a clean home. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Julia was fantastic! She provided great updates and pictures and made us feel safe leaving our cats while we were traveling. Julia went above and beyond. We'll definitely work with her again in the future.”
“Belinda provided daily drop-ins for our family cat during an extended holiday vacation. She was responsive, flexible and reliable from start to finish. We knew our kitty was in great hands and we loved the daily pictures of him enjoying his treats. We took comfort knowing another animal lover was looking after him, including getting his daily medicine. We'd definitely use her services again!”
“Brooklyn was fantastic with Tiger and Tanner! She was flexible, reliable, and gave them excellent care, which gave us complete peace of mind. We’ll definitely be booking her again!”
“Mark was attentive to the needs of my cat, Sparkle. dropping in twice a day, giving her attention and winning over her affections, she’s a very shy cat and doesn’t let just anyone be near her or pet her. Sparkle requires medication once a day, Mark had no problems giving it.”
“Anna is great and super reliable. Definitely eases our mind knowing our two cats were in great hands while we were away. Even our shy boy, who is so afraid of new people came out to say hi. I appreciate the detailed updates and photos. It was our first time working with Anna and it will not be our last. Thanks again! Until next time!”
About: I have cared for cats my entire life, including cats with FLUTD and asthma. I am comfortable administering medications, monitoring for symptoms or behavior changes, cleaning litter boxes (including robot litter boxes), and following specific feeding routines and care instructions closely. I understand that cats can have very different personalities and comfort levels, and I always take a calm patient approach to help them feel safe and comfy.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Buda
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“Knew when I met them, I'd book the next. Now that the first one is over, I have no regrets! I booked Kyle and Desiree for daycare. It's my first time leaving my dog with strangers, and I was so nervous! They checked in during the day and took great pictures! Looking forwaed to the next sit, already!”
“George and Abigail are fantastic dog sitters. You can see they really love all dogs. Our dog Luna can be timid, but she gets so excited to go to their house. Her new besties are Mac and Gus, their dogs. She has a great time playing all day. I would highly recommend them for any type of Pet care !”
“Trixie has so much fun going to see Amelia and playing with her 2 dogs. I get pictures throughout the day, and Trixie is so happy and also worn out from playing when I pick her up. Great sitter!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, but most of my pet care experience comes from my own dog, Tuna. I adopted Tuna in 2014, when he was a year old, and he lived with me for 12 wonderful years until he crossed the rainbow bridge in October 2025. I am becoming a Rover sitter to bring the companionship of a dog back into my life while offering other pet parents the highest level of dedicated care. Through caring for Tuna and my family's dogs over the years, I have extensive experience with all types of dogs, including highly active young adults and seniors requiring specialized care. As a former pet parent, I understand how stressful it is to leave your dog with someone else and trust they will be cared for as you would. I aim to ease that stress with loving, supportive, and dedicated care. I have included more detailed information on my experience below. Senior care: -Experienced in administering daily oral medications and supplements while managing strict dosing schedules. -Familiar with guiding dogs through physical therapy exercises, managing arthritis, and accommodating the slower pace of aging pets. -Experienced in managing complex nutritional needs, including transition care, dehydrated food, and preparing fresh meals from scratch. -Ability to manage specialized routines, including transporting pets to appointments such as veterinary acupuncture or maintaining routines for such appointments. Behavioral needs: -Experienced caring for a highly reactive dog with a history of abuse. -Familiar with reading dog body language, avoiding triggers during walks, and managing anxious or fearful dogs. -Skilled at establishing a calm, low-stress environment for dogs who need extra time to warm up to new people or spaces. Exercise needs: -Well-versed in safely handling dogs while hiking, camping, and swimming in the Colorado outdoors. -Accustomed to providing multiple structured walks a day, tailored to your dog's energy level. Hygiene needs: -Routine experience with monthly bathing, nail trimming, and ear cleaning. I work almost entirely from home Monday through Friday (9 a.m. to 5 p.m.). While I keep regular work hours, my job offers excellent flexibility. This means your pup won't be left alone; I am readily available throughout the day for potty breaks, neighborhood walks, and dedicated playtime. If your pet requires a specific medication schedule, multiple feedings a day, or extra companionship while you are away, I can seamlessly integrate their routine into my workday. When your pet is with me, they are treated like family. I aim to provide a safe, structured, and deeply affectionate environment so you can have total peace of mind. If they are used to cuddling on the couch or sleeping in bed, they are more than welcome to do so. However, I am happy to enforce any house rules and boundaries you already have in place. Overall, I maintain a very clean, organized, and pet-proofed home. All trash cans have lids, plants are kept out of reach, and miscellaneous items are never left out where a dog can reach them. I live in a third-floor apartment with no elevator. My home is best suited for dogs who are fully mobile or small enough to be easily carried, as we will need to navigate two flights of stairs for every outing. My apartment complex features a private dog park and plenty of walking paths. I also have access to a community doggy bathing station, which is perfect if your dog requires bathing while in my care.
About: ***I will be out of state for the month of August. I will still be responding to requests but won't be available for in person meet and greets until early September. Stay cool everybody! Hello there! My name is Danielle and I would love to spend some time with your fur babies! I grew up with a bunch of pups running around (although I do not have any of my own now) and I have been sitting through Rover for over 8 years, so I have a lot of experience to bring to the table :) I have lots of experience with rescue pups (including any quirks that they may have because of this) as well as elderly pets who require extra attention, meds, specialized care, etc. I'm happy to work with you to provide the best care to your fur babies while I am watching them. I know different dogs and even different breeds can have wildly different needs and my goal is to keep them as calm and happy as possible while you are away. All my services are in your home only, including day care. Drop ins are for visits less than 1 hour (sometimes multiples per day), Day Care is longer visits (usually between 4-8 hours per day) but no overnights and housesitting is full time, 24 hour care including overnights. ***Rover has taken away full autonomy of our calendars. The Rover calendar only shows approx 80% of my housesitting availability. To see all available days (I update frequently), please look under "Availability" I freelance so I can work from home (aka right from your couch or home office.) As long as you can share your wifi password, I can be with them as needed. I can easily make sure I'm there to check in on them/work around their schedule. I'll most likely be with them more often than not during the day, and can stay with them all night as well. **Rover's housesitting calender only shows about 80% of my availability, below lists my full availability. I'll update regularly. If you're looking for something farther out/not listed, I'd love to hear from you! Available Housesitting Dates 2026 Sept 7-Sept 25th Oct 10-15th Oct 18-Oct 27th Nov 22-27th I will treat your pets and your home like it's my own. I will try my best to keep your fur babies on their normal, daily schedule. The only difference is that I would be the human doing the feeding, walking, snuggling, etc instead of the pet parent(s). I find this works best for most pets, and their parents, especially if there is any separation anxiety. During our meet and greet, I'll ask all about their daily schedule so I know how to best care for your fur babies during my stay. I work from home (aka right from your couch or home office), so I can be there with them most of the day and cater to their normal daily schedule :) Please be aware - during extreme temperature months, outside time (walks, etc) may be modified for everyone's health and safety. For example, in the winter/cold months, walks will primarily be done around mid day when it is warmest and during summer, walks would be done early or late to avoid the hottest times of the day. I am happy to discuss this with you during our meet and greet to come to an arrangement that works for everyone
“Ben is awesome! Super responsible, easy to communicate with and has extensive dog training experience. All of which means that we 100% trust him to take care of our dog and also provide enriching activities - leaving us with a tired and v happy dog at the end of the day!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals for a very long time. I’m an animal lover. I am dependable, reliable and trustworthy and looking forward to taking care of your fur babies. I am a stay at home mom for the last 13 years. My kids are in school and wanting to take care of pets full time. I have a doggy door that goes out to my fenced in yard and My whole family will give lots of love to your pet
“From start to finish I was absolutely amazed by the kindness and professionalism that I was shown! I always appreciate when my pup can do a meet and greet so I can have the peace of mind knowing he is comfortable in the environment I am leaving him in. During the stay I got pictures of how well my baby was doing. And when I had an unexpected trip to urgent care for my family member they were able to keep my pup happy for a bit longer than what was planned. He came home and crashed because he was so tired from his big play date! 10/10 would recommend!!”
“June was awesome! My little guy doesn't stay many other places but home and my friends. I moved away from my friends and needed the occasional sitter. She is very communicative and friendly. Dexter can be a timid pup but she made him feel at home for the day! Thanks again!!”
“Andrea and Pumpkin were great! We were able to do a meet and greet with them a few days before my dogs dog day care stay, which was very much appreciated! Andrea provided updates and pictures throughout the day and was very accommodating for my dog. Thank you again Andrea!”
“Today was Ellie’s first doggy day care ever! She is a reservation Rescue and is rather shy. She did so wonderfully with Marion and her lovely dog Summit! It’s a testament to Marion and Summit that they were to able to have Ellie just thrive and do so well the first time ever in this new situation we will be returning next week!”
About: Hi! I’m Brandt, a reliable and attentive pet sitter who adores spending time with animals. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care, so I treat every pet like they’re my own. I provide: • Safe, structured, and engaging walks • Attention to your dog’s pace, personality, and needs • Consistent routines to keep pets comfortable and stress free • Plenty of attention, playtime, and positive interaction My primary focus right now is to meet new people to help and new pets to include into my caregiving routine. My overall schedule is very flexible, and am willing to meet at any hours of the day. I have a fenced yard and one extremely goofy and lovable small dog named Colt. For every client, I will take thorough notes to ensure complete confidence, whether it's specific attention needs, medication needs, or general requests.
“Dulce always has a blast here with Joanne! Always trying to keep up with the other dogs! Definitely one of her favorite places! Always looking forward to bringing her back!”
“Liz was amazing! She was so sweet to my pup, he can be anxious around new people and warmed up to her so quickly! Her communication was great and she kept me updated throughout the day. I really appreciated her being able to help out last minute, and she went above and beyond to take care of Percy. If you are looking for a reliable and wonderful rover look no further :)”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Buda
Prices are estimates per walk for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I live in a very full and very happy home of five rescue doggos and a cat-that-thinks-she-is-a-dog. Needless to say, I juggle many different personalities, needs, and quirks every day. I feel most fulfilled getting to know animals for who they are and building trust at their own pace. I use positive reinforcement and pay close attention to behavioral cues, especially with dogs who are anxious, fearful, or need a little extra patience. I have hands-on experience managing multi-dog dynamics, including situations with food or fear aggression, so I’m very intentional about following each pet’s specific routine and your instructions. Alongside pet care, I’ve spent nearly two decades teaching dance to all ages, which taught me how to corral a group of strong personalities. The skills translate well: patience, awareness, and keeping structure and calm when things get a little unpredictable. At the end of the day, I treat every animal like a whole little person—just one who might occasionally eat something they absolutely shouldn’t. I keep a flexible schedule and can accommodate a range of routines. I book thoughtfully so I can be fully present, reliable, and consistent for your pets. My approach centers on safety, trust, and a calm, low-stress environment. I follow routines closely, read each pet’s cues, and let them warm up at their own pace so they feel secure and understood—not overwhelmed.
“AJ was professional and friendly and took time to meet my new rescue dog before starting service. AJ took extra care of my dog, providing lots of care for him and communicating with photos and updates after their visit. I would highly recommend AJ!”
“Alissa did an AMAZING job with our pup Luna. She can be quite a handful but when we came home our girl was taking a long nap as she had 2 great walks around the lake. Alissa also accommodated to our needs of using codes to get into our apartment and unit along with booking a second walk last minute. :)”
“Julia responded fast to my message and provided pictures and updated on how my pup did on his walk. I will definitely use again in the future and would recommend to others!”
About: Hi! I am a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet mom with a home full of personalities - including 4 dogs (Great Dane puppy mixes, a Great Pyr mix, and a senior pittie who keeps things interesting) and 3 cats. Because of that, I am super comfortable with all sizes, breeds, and temperaments - from giant, high energy dogs, to tiny sensitive guys who need a little extra love, and even the occasional grumpy senior. I truly understand how important it is to keep pets in their normal routine while you're away and I have experience with training, medicine administration, and specialized diets as well as feeding schedules. My goal during every interaction with your babies is to make them as comfy as possible while maintaining their routine, and make them feel loved while their people are away. I am especially patient with shy, anxious, or older pets and always adjust my approach based on what they need. I also know how important communication is, so you will get updates and photos regularly! As a pet mom myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your babies with someone, so I make sure to treat every pet like they're my own! I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate most drop-in visits, feeding schedules, potty breaks, and pet care routines throughout the day. Since caring for my own pets is already a part of my daily routine, providing reliable and consistent care for other pets fits very naturally into my schedule. I care for every pet based on their individual needs and routine. I am used to managing multiple pets with different personalities, feeding schedules, diets, and energy levels. Safety, consistency and comfort are always my priority. For drop-in visits, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, fresh food & water, meds if needed, and love! I am happy to follow specific instructions closely. I am also open to pet sitting in my home for animals who are dog, cat and kid friendly. My home is very pet-centered, and I understand how important it is for animals to feel safe and cared for.
“Thank you for the notes, she started reacting to the treats I give her so I won't be giving her those anymore. I will setup the recurring walks tonight. Thank you for your services.”
About: I've been around dogs my entire life, it was a staple growing up having multiple dogs around me. From pet sitting, training puppies to adults, feeding and bathing them regularly, I know the importance of making sure they are well cared for. You will know from the body language of a dog if they are truly happy, and that is what makes me feel happy. I am currently a post college graduate so I have the time and energy to care for your pets at any day's moment. I am a night owl so I am flexible regardless of your pets schedule! I have two dogs and one cat in my house. My cat stays in a separate room while my dogs roam the house with a fenced yard. I have cared for many dogs in different types of living spaces and willing to adapt whatever fits best.
“She was go great and patient with my two babies. They fell in love with her. I’m definitely going to be booking her again. I love that she sent me pictures and a review after every walk! thank you so so much.”
“I can always rely on Robin when we need a dog walker. She is great! My dog created a mess with her automatic dog feeder and Robin was kind enough to clean it up. She is also great at communicating. I would highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve worked at a dog daycare/boarding facility and I have had lots of experience taking care of dogs as I’ve had many of my own since I was a child. I’ve had puppies, elderly, small, large, and disabled dogs. I have experience with large dogs as well as high energy (as I have a Malinois/shepard mix) and pulling on leash. I have pet sit prior to using rover and am determined to give your dog an experience to remember and for you too! I currently work as a nanny during the mornings and early afternoons (typically until 3:00–4:00 p.m.), but I’d still love the opportunity to work with you if we can find a schedule that fits both of our needs! I’m excited to help however I can, so please let me know if there’s a way we can make it work. I look forward to hearing from you! I will reply as frequently as possible and I am able to adjust my scheduling however a guest needs and I can provide my schedule and times I am available during the day! I Will ask, if possible, for a list as to any instruction, extra info, and anything I may need to know to help me make your pet happy! If your dog is friendly with others, and wouldn’t mind a playmate, I too have my own dog that I can bring as a playmate with your fluffy friend! I always make sure to check that there are no hazards when leaving your dog after the day and I always make sure to keep an eye on fences and kennels
“Danielle is amazing! She is so kind and caring with our pup paisley. I always know she is in good hands when I have to leave her for work! Paisley was a bit cautious and scared when we first moved her to providence but Danielle has really helped ease the transition and helped her adapt! Danielle is flexible and incredibly reliable. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur baby!”
About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior animals I understand that every animal has unique needs, so safety is always my top priority. Making sure pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while their people are away. I’m attentive to details and I always provide regular updates with photos so you’ll feel connected and reassured. My schedule is flexible and very open currently as I'm new to the area and still looking for work. Rover allows me the opportunity to take my time as I do and spend time in various areas as I get to know the community. I’m available for morning, daytime, and evening visits, as well as weekends and most holidays. Whether you need regular drop ins, daily walks, or overnight care, I’ll make sure your pets gets attention while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I don’t host animals currently but I provide reliable overnight stays in your pet’s familiar environment. This way, they can stick to their normal routines and feel secure while you’re away. I’m respectful of your space, and committed to following your instructions. You can count on regular updates so you always know how your pets are doing.
About: I’ve taken care of friends and families dogs since I was a kid, and I make sure to follow the schedule and needs of every pet. I have house sat and done drop in visits for many neighbors and am comfortable coming to your house to provide services for your pets! I am a full-time student so I have availability mostly in the evenings. I have more availability during the weekends. I’m generally busy from 8am to 4pm but it depends on what days I have meetings after classes. I could let dogs outside during my lunch break if I am house/dog sitting during a regular school week. During the summer I have more availability. Caring for pets in their safe environment (your home) is best for them! I can provide general house chores while house sitting like getting the mail, feeding fish, watering plants, etc. while caring for your pets!
About: Nice to meet you, my name is May, and I go by any Pronouns! I am a certified dog trainer with a lifetime of companion care and 3+ years of clinical veterinary experience as well as a pre-vet major. My skills are in veterinary medicine, welfare, conservation, Ecology, and marine biology. I am certified fear free. I have experience with dog & cat grooming, lodging, daycare, training, education, and medical care. I have even worked with dogs from k9 units and search & rescue units. I have 4 cats, and hopefully a dog soon! I can take care of your pets from any age, breed, size, even lizards, birds, fish, or turtles. You name it, and I will be there for them. Common questions: What if my pet has a disability? No problem! You let me know what they need and I can accommodate them, even if they have behavioral issues. What if my pet needs medications? No need to worry. I can administer medications via subcutaneous, transdermal, oral pills or liquids, or even instramuscular. What if my pet is high energy? Those are the best! High energy pets have high activity levels, they require lots of exercise and attention. I can make multiple visits, take them for walks, and even work on training plans while you're away. You'll come home to a happy pet with a new set of skills! Your pets deserve the best. They deserve a guardian. Not just someone who loves them, but who can care for them in all areas. That's what I'm here for. My skills: (and growing) ✨️ Administering medications (via any route; Oral liquid or pill, IM, SQ, Transdermal) ✨️ Grooming/Bathing ✨️ Nail Trims ✨️ Meal Prep & Feeding ✨️ Animal Behavior ✨️ Training ✨️ Medical Care Rover is something I fit into my life whenever I can while I work & continue education. Some seasons are busier than others, and that's normal. Pet Care is already a part of my daily life, so these requests come as a breeze for me. I try to update my calender monthly, but if things don't look right, if your other sitter isn't available, or if you just need someone ASAP, you are always free to message me any time in the app. I try to reply as soon as possible, but sometimes I don't recieve notifications, so it may take me a few hours to reply in some instances. My calender should reflect my un-availability at minimum. If you have any questions, please message me as I am flexible and will accommodate where possible. Keeping things fear-free as much as possible is a priority for me. This means, I won't push your pets boundaries if they won't push mine. I like to keep things calm, relaxing, and easy or neutral. When I meet them for the first time during the meet & greet, I wait for them to come up to me. It's what they are comfortable with. This helps everyone establish trust and familiarity. My hope is that I can be your go to whenever you need pet care. Sometimes, I use miracle tones to help with fear, it is soothing and calming for all. Pet TV is a great option for their environment while you are away and a new person is in their home too. I like to stick to a rhythm or routine. As I enter their palace, I introduce myself gently by using a high pitched soft tone and a treat. Then, I let them sniff me out before they welcome me through. Any grievances? No siree! Next, I like to start feedings and medications after activities. But, I take it at their pace. Afterwards, I will take care of cleaning & notes before my departure from their palace.

“We had an amazing experience with Kyle and Desiree. Their communication is excellent before and during our boys stay. Our boys were so happy and well taken care of (spoiled)! We will absolutely return to Kyle and Desiree whenever we need care for our pups!”
“Yi Ling was so wonderful to work with. This was our first time leaving our new puppy, and she kept him busy with two daily walks, plus playtime with other dogs she cares for. She gave twice daily updates on how he was doing; overall it was a great experience. I definitely plan to hire her again to care for my dog.”
“We picked our English Bulldog up at 7:45am and Jessica had everything packed up, Posey’s kennel broken down, and we were able to get right on the road for a 12 hour drive! Posey had obviously played hard because she went right to sleep. She is worn out and happy! Thanks, Jessica!”
“Ben was wonderful watching our puppy Benny for a last minute trip! He’s a great communicator with a clear love for dogs! He sent us updates about our puppy while we were gone and was super easy going! Would love to have him watch our puppy again in the future!”
“Sidney was wonderful! This was our first time using Rover and we loved it. During the 11 days away, I got updates and photos for peace of mind. It was amazing and so different from a boarding place where you’re always wondering how it’s going. Sidney is so nice and had such a cute house and sweet dogs!! Definitely will have her watch our pups again!! :)”
“Great booking with Ryan and his wife. Got great updates and pictures. They have the perfect set up for dog sitting with a great yard, plenty of gates for separation, if needed, and gentle, but playful hosts.”
“Alejandra and Patrick offer our dog Penny a comfortable, dog-centered experience. The dogs play in the large shaded back yard and enjoy outings to a local dog park. We can’t ask for a better place for Penny when we are out of town!”
“Brittany was so communicative, caring and really came through in a pinch! My sweet Gabby girl came home so happy and well taken care of. From Gabby and us thank you so much Brittany!”
“I was new to using Rover and Darcy P. Was very patient answering my questions and taking the time to meet my dogs! Would recommend her to anyone, she's great.”
“Amber was amazing! She took such great care of Melek and was even kind enough to keep him a little longer than planned, which we really appreciated. Thank you so much for your flexibility and care”
“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!”
“Becky was great at sharing pics, responding and keeping me updated while taking care of Juju. Juju was very tired from playing when I picked her up which let me know she had a good time. Thanks Becky!”
“Brenda and Deb were so flexible in taking care of both of our dogs including our young puppy :) We are so grateful to them for their love and kindness. Our older anxious dog is happy to arrive and then didn’t want to leave which is the best sign!!”
“We were extremely nervous about leaving our dogs in an unfamiliar place for the first time as our boys are a bit spoiled. We were so lucky to have met Haley and David. The care and updates they gave us of Hank and Roy were really assuring. Roy was a bit nervous at first but Haley was able to bond with him and put him at ease. Hank just made himself at home. We will definitely use them again in the future. We 💯 recommend them!!!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, but most of my pet care experience comes from my own dog, Tuna. I adopted Tuna in 2014, when he was a year old, and he lived with me for 12 wonderful years until he crossed the rainbow bridge in October 2025. I am becoming a Rover sitter to bring the companionship of a dog back into my life while offering other pet parents the highest level of dedicated care. Through caring for Tuna and my family's dogs over the years, I have extensive experience with all types of dogs, including highly active young adults and seniors requiring specialized care. As a former pet parent, I understand how stressful it is to leave your dog with someone else and trust they will be cared for as you would. I aim to ease that stress with loving, supportive, and dedicated care. I have included more detailed information on my experience below. Senior care: -Experienced in administering daily oral medications and supplements while managing strict dosing schedules. -Familiar with guiding dogs through physical therapy exercises, managing arthritis, and accommodating the slower pace of aging pets. -Experienced in managing complex nutritional needs, including transition care, dehydrated food, and preparing fresh meals from scratch. -Ability to manage specialized routines, including transporting pets to appointments such as veterinary acupuncture or maintaining routines for such appointments. Behavioral needs: -Experienced caring for a highly reactive dog with a history of abuse. -Familiar with reading dog body language, avoiding triggers during walks, and managing anxious or fearful dogs. -Skilled at establishing a calm, low-stress environment for dogs who need extra time to warm up to new people or spaces. Exercise needs: -Well-versed in safely handling dogs while hiking, camping, and swimming in the Colorado outdoors. -Accustomed to providing multiple structured walks a day, tailored to your dog's energy level. Hygiene needs: -Routine experience with monthly bathing, nail trimming, and ear cleaning. I work almost entirely from home Monday through Friday (9 a.m. to 5 p.m.). While I keep regular work hours, my job offers excellent flexibility. This means your pup won't be left alone; I am readily available throughout the day for potty breaks, neighborhood walks, and dedicated playtime. If your pet requires a specific medication schedule, multiple feedings a day, or extra companionship while you are away, I can seamlessly integrate their routine into my workday. When your pet is with me, they are treated like family. I aim to provide a safe, structured, and deeply affectionate environment so you can have total peace of mind. If they are used to cuddling on the couch or sleeping in bed, they are more than welcome to do so. However, I am happy to enforce any house rules and boundaries you already have in place. Overall, I maintain a very clean, organized, and pet-proofed home. All trash cans have lids, plants are kept out of reach, and miscellaneous items are never left out where a dog can reach them. I live in a third-floor apartment with no elevator. My home is best suited for dogs who are fully mobile or small enough to be easily carried, as we will need to navigate two flights of stairs for every outing. My apartment complex features a private dog park and plenty of walking paths. I also have access to a community doggy bathing station, which is perfect if your dog requires bathing while in my care.
“Riley was so happy with Dalia and Dainius and their daughter Milda! I’m sure she hardly missed me at all between their walks and play time. 😊 It was also wonderful how accommodating they were to watch her less than a week out! Highly recommend!”
“I could just tell when i walked in the door that bowie was going to be well taken care of. My puppy usually has a hard time when we leave her at a boarding house. She doesnt eat much, and barks all night but not this time! She didn't lose weight, slept and got all kinda of walks and cuddles and I got to relax on my trip because I could tell she was happy and relaxed! Definetely going back thank you so much Meagan!!!”
