“Tucker loved staying with Kirsten! After previous experiences leaving him, his attitude was night and day. He came home happy and based on how much he slept he was taken care of and well exercised!”
“Jen and her family were a delight to work with! They integrated our dog right into their family activities and he was happy and well-rested when I picked him up. I’d hire her again in a heartbeat!”

“We’ve had wonderful experiences boarding our dog with Katie and Ryan. They are communicative, kind and willing to accommodate our dog’s medication schedule. We received regular updates and photos, and it’s clear our dog was happy and well-cared for in their care. Highly recommend!”

“Charlotte had my 1.5 yr old Porty for 4 nights. Went for multiple walks per day , sent pics of him having fun, and communicated thru out. If you’re looking for a home away from home for your pup, I highly recommend Charlotte., one of the sweetest and nicest humans I’ve ever met.”

“What a blessing to find such a great family to take care of our two Rhodesian Ridgebacks during our travels! Lu and his wife and daughter are so kind, genuine and experienced. Our doggos were well cared for and loved. Highly recommend them!”

“Suzanne was great! She answered prior to our drop off in a timely manner and during Katy's stay with her. We got daily updates with pics which was great. We will definitely use her again if we have a need in the area.”

About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I understand that every animal has unique needs, personalities, and routines. I’ve worked with pets of many different temperaments, behavioral challenges, and health conditions, so I’m comfortable adapting my care to ensure each pet feels safe, understood, and well cared for. I approach every sitting opportunity with a strong sense of responsibility and professionalism, while also providing genuine love, patience, and attention. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or requires extra care, I strive to create a positive and comfortable experience for both you and your pet. I am currently working in healthcare Monday-Friday 7am-4pm so weekdays are best for evening sitting or boarding pets that can handle being alone for that time. I am completely free on the weekends. I am an early riser and love to get out and enjoy the sunshine with a pet but am happy to stay close to home for pet needs. I do prefer to walk on leash as I don’t have a fenced in area and do like to ensure safety of the pets I care for and others around. There is a fenced in dog park a short walk from my apartment to let dogs run off leash if approved by owner. I don’t have any pets in my home so if I am to sit at my residence the pet would be in a secure and private environment. I keep a clean and safe household for all types of pets. I also am respectful and receptive to all household and pet needs on an individual basis.
“Stuart and his girlfriend, Ryan, were terrific caregivers for our very active 2 yr old JRT who had separation anxiety. He was quite challenging at first because he has only been away from us for a day or so, and then he stayed with someone he knew. They sent wonderful photos and kept me well informed. Also, from the photos, it was clear that they were out and about and keeping our little guy occupied and having fun. We were so pleased because, truthfully, we had a bit of separation anxiety from him, too. We would not hesitate to recommend Stuart to care for your furry famiy member.”

“We needed someone to keep our dog for the night while we went to a concert in Vail. Lola was so happy at Erin’s with both of her pups, lots of walks, a big fenced yard, and another rover pup to play with. We are so thankful and would absolutely use Erin to watch Lola again in the future.”

“Megan was an outstanding sitter for my pup Chai. She was very communicative, drop off/pickup were easy, and she also sent proactive updates (with photos) at the end of each day. It was clear that Chai had a great couple of days with Megan - I would strongly recommend her to anyone else seeking help for their pup!”

“Amy was amazing with my little Sola. She (& her dog Jackson) made her feel at home with walks, cuddles, and attention, and, me at ease, it being my first time using Rover. I would highly recommend Amy to anyone and their dog.”

“Rachel and her family are amazing! They cared for my dog Rosie as one of the family. This was the most secure I’ve felt leaving my dog with someone while going out of town. I wouldn’t use anyone else if they are available to watch her. Thanks Rachel!”

“Jessica did an amazing job watching Ziggy! The photos she sent put me at ease knowing Ziggy was okay. I would highly recommend Jessica for dog boarding! We will be using her again when we leave town!”

About: I’ve owned dogs and taken care of family and friend’s for decades. I’m an animal lover of all types, but particularly man’s furry best friend! I work remote for a nonprofit and have plenty of flexibility within my schedule. Wednesday and Thursday nights I am unavailable, otherwise let’s chat and find time for your pup. I do not offer care in my home. I will come to you and provide comfort and care for your dog in the environment they are used to, ensuring whatever unique needs they have are met!
“Monica was absolutely exceptional! She took such wonderful care of our dog, Bea, and treated her like one of her own. Every day she took Bea to the lake to play fetch, which was the highlight of her day, and it was clear she received so much love, attention, and exercise. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would gladly book Monica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for outstanding care.”
“We highly recommend Nevada for all of your pet care needs! She is experienced, knowledgeable, dependable and flexible. Our dog Birdie is shy with strangers, but Nevada was patient and attentive and made her feel right at home. Her sweet dog Duke is a gentle soul and was very accepting of Birdie in his space. Nevada will treat your pet like her own, providing lots of love and exercise! Birdie always comes home happy and smiling!”

“She was a rockstar from day one to the moment we picked our dog up, she has been nothing but maternal and sweet with our baby throughout these days. Regularly we would received multiple photos and pictures and it was clear from the beginning that our dog was not left alone for a single moment he was either with her jack Russell or at her job at the radio station he even came back with a cute plaid jacket. because she was worried about him getting cold in those frigid Aspen nights. we would highly recommend lauri!!!”

“Aaron was great. Was able to take care of my dogs with short notice. Great communication and flexibility. Will definitely reach out to Aaron again if I need my dogs to be taken care of. Thanks”

“Laurie was great! She cared for our kitties and gave them lots of scratches and playtime, and shared lots of photos with nice updates. We came home to happy cats and would definitely book Laurie again next time we need a sitter.”
“Lu and family are professional, communicative and very nice people. My cats, who are very shy, loved their company - I was pleased to see how friendly they were with them. Highly recommend!”

“Suzanne has been fantastic taking care of our cat Dennis. This was the first time we had to travel without our cat and when we came back he was just fine because of Suzanne care. We are now thinking traveling more often if Suzanne is able to take care of our Dennis. Suzanne, thank you for your genuine sense of care for our pet.”

“Highly recommend! She took wonderful care of my cat and was reliable, kind, and attentive throughout my time away. I really appreciated the updates, photos, and videos she sent after each visit. Seeing all the cuddles and attention made me feel confident my cat was in great hands. I’d absolutely book with her again!”


“Sarah was amazing! Kitty was recovering from a cold and she made sure to throughly take care of him (wiping eye boogers, etc.). I had absolutely no worries with her checking up on him. She made sure to do everything asked and focused her attention on Kitty the entire time here. I highly recommend her, I’ll book with her again if I need!”


“Natalie did a wonderful job taking care of my cats for two weeks, with stop in visits! My cats were well taken care of, and Natalie was always consistent with her schedule and with sent several pics and an update each day with a Rover Postcard. Natalie is professional, reliable, thoughtful and a great communicator. I hope to hire Natalie again.”


“Tamarah was great with drop in visits for our kitty. She was timely and made sure he had everything he needed and more while we were away. Would definitely recommend. Thanks so much!”

“Heather did a great job of updating us regarding Buddhas daily health and her time spent with our cat. We felt very confident with Heather being caring and responsive”

About: I have grown up with a wide variety of dogs from Yorkshire Terriers to Boxers! I currently have three cats of my own and a German Shepherd Husky mix. I am very good at administering medicine to animals. I am currently working full-time as a high school teacher and my husband is a family physician. So our schedules are fairly the same from 8am-4pm are when we are both away from home. I’m available all day during the weekends to sit, walk, or provide overnight care at your home. During the summer months, I have more flexibility with times. We currently live in an apartment with a pet limit. So unfortunately, we cannot board your pets with us. Happy to take care of your pets in your home so they’re comfortable in their normal environment!

“Wonderful cat sitter! I really appreciated the daily report cards and updates. Reese gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my cat was well cared for and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Thank you!”

About: I have worked with dogs for a few years and grew up with cats. I take care of a lot of my friends and families animals. I have a lot of experience with dogs of all sizes and ages. I am starting the Vet Tech program alongside working at a local vet clinic as well! I am a early riser and will come and feed and let out your dogs. I will be there all night and let them out throughout the night. I am very accommodating. I will not have dogs staying in my home but I will get there early mornings and late evenings to take them out on walks.
About: I started working at a veterinary office in 2002 when I was in my twenties, I was a vet tech and worked in boarding as well. I worked in several boarding facilities and hospitals taking care of dogs and cats that were in the hospital or being boarded. I have experience giving medications, herbal supplement knowledge, raw food diet, preparing cooked foods, bathing pets, leash aggression and I am very tuned into what dogs and cats are communicating. I have experience training puppies and also working with dominant dogs. I'm currently working as a contract worker as a postpartum doula and I have my own herbal business. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy being in nature with your pets! Hiking and walking peaks feeds my heart and I love renting my friends dogs to go on adventures with. I can easily care for your pet in your home exactly how you care for them. If they need to be in a crate or walked in a specific area in the yard if there is special needs or request. I also enjoy walking around neighborhoods and parks. I also can offer meal preparation if they are on cooked or raw diet.

“Marissa was great with our cat! It made such a difference not having to worry about how he was doing while we were gone, we could relax and enjoy ourselves! Every photo she sent we could tell he was happy, and he loved her right away when they met. Thanks Marissa!”

About: Ever since I can remember, I’ve been surrounded by animals. Growing up with three large dogs and two cats gave me a strong foundation in animal care and a lifelong love for pets. Over the years, I have volunteered more than 130 hours with animal shelters and rescue organizations, gaining hands-on experience with a wide variety of tasks including walking, bathing, administering medications, transporting animals to and from veterinary appointments, and fostering dogs in need in my home. I’m also a full-time dog mom and currently work part-time from home, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and provide attentive care. I love spending time outdoors, whether that’s long neighborhood walks, hiking local trails, or simply enjoying fresh air with a happy pup by my side. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I would love the opportunity to help with all of your pet care needs and provide peace of mind while you're away. I have two dogs at home that I care for full time. First thing in the morning I let my pups outback into the fenced in yard. I then feed them breakfast around 7:30am. We love to go to the park or for walks, we do this every day. Some days we will head up to a lake or reservoir for some swimming. We have dinner in the evening and potentially another walk. When caring for a pet in your home, I like to do a meet and greet with the dog first if that is a possibility. When being in your home I can provide the dog with treats and a slow introduction to gain their trust. Once this has been completed, then I will go about their daily routine per your request.

“Sara dropped in to visit our pup while we were traveling for the day. During her visits she was very responsive and thorough in her updates. Robin requires some additional attention on walks, Sara seemed while equipped to care of Robin’s quirks. I felt like Robin was in great hands while we were gone :)”


“Had a great drop in experience with Natalie who booked the service within four days before the appointment. She handles our pet who was a nervous nelly during our short time away. Thumbs up emoji”

“We had a great experience with Lu! Our dog was well taken care of during the time she spent with Lu. We were sent pictures throughout the 6 hrs and updates on how she was doing. Thank you Lu for taking care of our baby girl!”

“Nicole was great with Sully! It was our first time leaving our dog with someone- and she was so flexible and kindly listen to a worried puppy parents’ long list of things she should know about Sully... whenever we need a sitter near glenwood springs, we will be looking up Nicole! 10/10 would recommend!”

“Suzanne was absolutely wonderful with my six year old chocolate lab. She dog sat him for a few hours each day while I was hiking up to Hanging Lake and soaking in hot springs. He couldn’t wait to see her again the next day when I dropped him off. She walked him and send pictures while he was hanging out with her. I highly recommend Suzanne to watch your dog, she was an absolutely delight and I could tell my dog thoroughly enjoyed her company.”

About: Hello! I have had dogs and cats my entire life, and have one dog of my own that would love to be friends with your fur baby! I have 20+ years of experience, and am extremely active. I listen well to instructions and will ensure your dog has the best walk, time or visit I can provide! I have had dogs ranging from large Bernese mountain dogs like my own to a small maltepoo (my parents dog) who has an extremely sensitive stomach and requires extra attention. I also volunteered at the SPCA in San Francisco for 3 years and the Dumb Friends League in Denver for 4 years which gave me exposure to handling dogs from all walks of life - some of them easy and mellow, others extremely shy and required gentle handling and patience, while others were aggressive and required someone who understands how to calm and work with an aggressive dog. I look forward to working with you and your dog! I’m currently home most of the time outside of running or babysitting (and i will let you know if i have a shift that overlaps w your dog’s care). I can offer house sitting if my dog, Aspen, can come with me. I also offer boarding one dog at a time (or 2 if they are both yours) from my townhome in Basalt willits. I take the dogs out every 2-4 hours and Aspen (outside of when we’re sleeping) and I go on a walk every morning. I will do the same for your pup! I ALWAYS keep my eye on the pups and have 1 other very friendly and lovable Bernese mountain dog who can’t wait to welcome your pet!
“Teresa was THE BEST!! Seriously would trust her with my baby, she did such a wonderful job. She spent the entire day with my sweet boy one on one so my husband and I could check out Glenwood Springs. She took great care of him and spent lots of time with him. She fed him his lunch and even took him out for a stroll on the river walk. Teresa is a delightful person and an excellent doggy day care mom.”

“Nevada took such great care of my timid dog. Her own personal dog also did a great job of feeling mine feel comfortable and at ease. Nevada sent me pictures thru out the visit and was even able to do pick up/drop off”


“We are so grateful Andrea accepted our last minute request. She was great at communicating with us and sent us many pictures of Baloo during his time with her. Highly recommend.”

“Katie was so friendly and accommodating during our last minute request! She was so sweet and I immediately trusted her with my Pomeranian. I would absolutely use her again and recommend her highly!”

About: I love to walk and spend time with pets, they are the best companions. Going for walks with my pet is a joy. I love to play with them and making shure that they have all their needs met. I start my day walking with my pet. When I am home I like to play with them in my fenced back yard. At the end of the day we always go for another walk to the park. I take the pets outside as soon as we wake up. I make sure that they always have access to food and water. Then we go for a nice walk and play.
“Good communication and super flexible. We used Megan for daycare as we hiked close by. Jersey was well taken care of and Megan was flexible with pickup after we finished out hike. Thanks again!”

About: I am based in Carbondale, CO. I am currently pet/house sitting full time throughout the summer so I'm able to provide a high level of care for pets and homes throughout the valley! I've cared for my own dogs, roommates' dogs, friends' pets, Trusted Housesitter stays, and Rover sits over the past 10 years. I've cared for dogs from puppyhood to 13 years old. I've also cat-sat for friends, Trusted Housesitters, and Rover clients over the years. I'm happy to take them on walks, hikes, dog parks, and potty/play breaks throughout the day. The longest I've watched someone's pet was for 2 months, and I loved it! I'm also happy to take them camping if that's their jam. Feel free to reach out with any other questions! A note on transportation - In addition to my ambulance camper, I have an e-bike I often enjoy cycling throughout the valley, so parking availability at your home should not be an issue. I currently am full time pet sitting for the summer. I am very attentive and love morning, midday, fetch, and evening walks. I can take them to the dog park or on hikes, or if they're good with bikes, I can take them on even longer run/bike rides. I am very respectful and clean when staying at a client's house. I treat it like my own (if not better). I love going for walks with your pup and keeping them on a leash. I also don't give in to the cute puppy eyes when I'm eating my food and keep them to their parents' approved food and treats.
“Monica was very warm and welcoming. Dropped off the pup so I could spend a day at the hot springs. She was eager to hang out with new people and seemed very relaxed when I picked her up. Would definitely book again!”

“Sofía was great! She was very communicative and responsive. I love that she took photos of Charro through out his day and she gave me a peace of mind that he was well. Overall, Sofia was very friendly, easy to work with and I really appreciate her care for Charro while he was with her.”

About: Hello fellow animal lovers! My name is Melissa and I have a history of taking care of dogs, cats, horses and other animals. I’ve voluneered at dog shelters muiltple times. I grew up with dogs and rabbits. I have a dog named Ulysses. He is a German shorthair pointer. Your animal will have my full attention and affection. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have. Hope I can help ! I work at a restaurant in Aspen 3-4 days a week. Usually only a 6-hour shift. Tuesday’s, Wednesdays, and Thursday nights are my fixed schedule but may change. My boyfriend Scott works during the day so he's at home at night while I'm at work. So, there will always be me or Scott at home with your dog and ours. I live in a 2br 2bath apartment with a small patio. The dog parks close by as well as lots of places to walk around town. I take my own dog Ulysses to Crown mtn park, Basalt mtn, or up by Sopris at least once a day. The Rio Grande trail is right by my place as well.
About: I grew up on a farm in the uk with cats and dogs and all of the animals. I’ve been a life long dog owner and currently have a beautiful McNab called Munro I study from home so I’m super flexible and very present with dog care. I prefer to be able to do a meet and greet prior to make sure we all connect . I prefer clients to have a fenced yard but if not then long leashed walks are also fun! Off leash is good too in the dog parks if your furry friend is good at recall.

About: I've cared for animals my whole life: dogs, cats, rats, parrots, fish, and more. Right now I share my home with three senior cats I adore, so I'm right at home with pets who need a little extra patience, a medication schedule, or just someone who reads their quirks and knows when 'she's hiding' means she's fine and when it doesn't. Whatever your pet needs, I've got it covered: feeding and fresh water, meds and pills (even the sneaky ones), playtime and walks, litter and cleanup, and overnight stays so they're never alone. I'm reliable, I show up when I say I will, and I'll send you photos and updates so you can actually relax while you're away. I'm always happy to start with a meet-and-greet so you and your pet can get comfortable with me before booking anything. Tell me your pet's routine and I'll keep it exactly the way they like it. Senior pets, anxious pets, shy pets, high-energy pets, and the occasional exotic are all welcome. I'd love to help take care of your best friend like they're my own. I do part-time software work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time for pet care throughout the day. Since I'm home for much of the day, I can handle midday visits, feedings, and check-ins that a 9-to-5 sitter can't. I'm available for morning and evening care, overnight stays at your place, and drop-ins during the day. Just tell me your pet's routine and we'll find a rhythm that works for both of us. In your home, I respect your space completely. I follow your instructions to the letter, keep doors and gates secured, stick to your pet's normal routine, and leave things exactly the way I found them. I'll send photos and updates at each visit so you always know your pet is safe, fed, and happy. I'm careful with the little things that matter: locking up when I leave, bringing in mail or packages if you'd like, and watching for anything off with your pet's behavior or health so I can flag it early. If something ever comes up, you'll hear from me right away. Above all, I treat every pet like my own and every home like I'd want mine treated, with care, respect, and attention to detail.
“Olivia was awesome! She seemed very considerate and loving of our little old special needs boy. It was great to be able to work and play at our conference knowing he was in good hands”

“We loved having Laurie take care of our dog and would 100% use her again. She’s extremely responsive and was willing to come over and meet our pets before watching them. Our typically shy cat even came out to greet her. Couldn’t have been happier with the service and can’t wait to use her again! Thank you!”

“Jasper has been a huge help walking our dog, Birdie. She can be very nervous and somewhat reactive around new people, but he has been incredibly patient and accommodating with her. He’s given her the time and space she needs to slowly warm up, which we really appreciate. Jasper is always timely, responsible, professional, and very communicative. You can truly tell he loves animals, and Birdie is in great hands with him!”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life! I absolutely love walking, playing and giving dogs all the love and care they deserve. From taking care of my own dog to helping friends and family out with theirs, I am here to help when you need it! I am currently off from work on Mondays giving me lots of time then to walk/check on your pups anywhere in the valley then! On Sundays I can walk/drop in on pups in Aspen and the other days I am often available for early morning or evening walks. I treat every pet like my own and work with owners to make sure they are getting the care they need. Just let me know how to make your pup the happiest they can be while you’re away!

About: I’ve owned and trained two dogs from puppyhood—a Husky and my current German Wirehaired Pointer, Lenny. Training and building a strong relationship with my dogs has always been important to me. Having lived in the Roaring Fork Valley for over 12 years, I spend most of my time outdoors hiking, walking, and exploring. When your pup stays with me—whether for an hour, a day, or overnight—you can count on them getting plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention. They’ll come home happy, tired, and ready to snuggle. I work from home so I usually get out for a walk or run in the morning. Afternoon jont to split up the day and then an evening activity depending on what is on the schedule. I have a fenced backyard and Lenny (my pup) to add to the fun. She’s a great companion to other dogs but also great for training.

“My wife and I had a meet & greet with Tamarah a couple of days earlier and found her to be very capable and personable. She was also very responsive to our inquiries and did a great job walking our two dogs. Will definitely use her again.”

“Such wonderful & caring sitters! Destiny and her partner, Cal, watched our old Golden and gave her so much love and attention. They sent us great pics and updates while we were gone. On the last day of our trip a wildfire broke out up near our house. They saw an alert about it on their phone and didn't hesitate to go grab her and take her home with them when they couldn't get ahold of us. I'm so thankful for their dedication.”

About: I have leash trained and kennel trained dogs over the years and train animals through gentle repetition and reward. Comfortable with special care such as medication or reasonable accommodation. I work from home during the day. We have a Golden Retriever named Biscuit and a Kelpie named Indi who are both super friendly and ready to play. We would prefer daytime services aside from boarding. I've lovingly cared for dogs since age 10, my mom’s farm in Missouri currently has 5 border collies. I love animals. Family, Neighbors and friends have trusted me for years to provide attentive walking & feeding for their furry companions. Currently since we have ample space on the ranch for outdoor play I have decided to start these services. We will have frequent trips to nearby parks like Sutey Ranch, Red Mt and Crown Mt.
About: I’ve been caring for fur babies since I graduated high school, giving both puppies and senior dogs the special attention they need. I love animals of every shape and size and treat them like my own—because let’s be honest, they run the household anyway. Your pet will get a happy, stress-free stay with plenty of love, snuggles, and top-tier spoiling. I work a full-time job during the day, but I’m available for drop-ins and visits in the late afternoons and evenings. I’m also free all day on Sundays, as well as one select weekday depending on my schedule. If you communicate your needs ahead of time, I’ll always do my best to make it happen. Your fur baby’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I come to your home so your pet can stay in their favorite place, surrounded by familiar smells and routines. I follow your instructions carefully and keep your home secure, tidy, and respected. You’ll always get clear updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

I currently am full time pet sitting for the summer. I am very attentive and love morning, midday, fetch, and evening walks. I can take them to the dog park or on hikes, or if they're good with bikes, I can take them on even longer run/bike rides. I am very respectful and clean when staying at a client's house. I treat it like my own (if not better). I love going for walks with your pup and keeping them on a leash. I also don't give in to the cute puppy eyes when I'm eating my food and keep them to their parents' approved food and treats.
“Lu is the absolute BEST! He is always there when we need him in a crunch and Roo seems so happy when she’s under his wing. He sends the cutest photos and it looks like they’re having a blast. Highly recommend Lu for any of your pups needs!”

About: I offer personalized, one on one care in a calm home environment where your dog is treated like family. Unlike crowded kennels or busy households, I care for just one household’s dog or dogs at a time alongside my own friendly and well socialized pup. I provide structure, consistency, and lots of love, with three daily walks and plenty of play and downtime. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages from energetic puppies to gentle seniors and can accommodate basic routines like medications, crate training, and slow introductions. I am attentive, communicative, and committed to giving your pet a safe and low stress experience while you are away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work from home, so I am able to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day. Walks are scheduled morning, afternoon, and evening, and I make sure there is time for play, rest, and companionship in between. Since I only care for one household’s dog or dogs at a time, I’m able to fully focus on their needs and adjust the routine to match their energy level and habits. I care for dogs in my home, where they can enjoy a peaceful, comfortable environment and lots of individual attention. I only host one household’s dog or dogs at a time, alongside my own friendly and well mannered dog. Dogs have full access to the main living areas, and I follow their usual routines as closely as possible—from feeding schedules to bedtime rituals. They receive three walks a day, playtime, and plenty of affection. I keep owners updated with regular photos and messages so they can relax knowing their dog is safe and happy.

“Tucker loved staying with Kirsten! After previous experiences leaving him, his attitude was night and day. He came home happy and based on how much he slept he was taken care of and well exercised!”
“Jen and her family were a delight to work with! They integrated our dog right into their family activities and he was happy and well-rested when I picked him up. I’d hire her again in a heartbeat!”

“We’ve had wonderful experiences boarding our dog with Katie and Ryan. They are communicative, kind and willing to accommodate our dog’s medication schedule. We received regular updates and photos, and it’s clear our dog was happy and well-cared for in their care. Highly recommend!”

“Charlotte had my 1.5 yr old Porty for 4 nights. Went for multiple walks per day , sent pics of him having fun, and communicated thru out. If you’re looking for a home away from home for your pup, I highly recommend Charlotte., one of the sweetest and nicest humans I’ve ever met.”

“What a blessing to find such a great family to take care of our two Rhodesian Ridgebacks during our travels! Lu and his wife and daughter are so kind, genuine and experienced. Our doggos were well cared for and loved. Highly recommend them!”

“Suzanne was great! She answered prior to our drop off in a timely manner and during Katy's stay with her. We got daily updates with pics which was great. We will definitely use her again if we have a need in the area.”

About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I understand that every animal has unique needs, personalities, and routines. I’ve worked with pets of many different temperaments, behavioral challenges, and health conditions, so I’m comfortable adapting my care to ensure each pet feels safe, understood, and well cared for. I approach every sitting opportunity with a strong sense of responsibility and professionalism, while also providing genuine love, patience, and attention. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or requires extra care, I strive to create a positive and comfortable experience for both you and your pet. I am currently working in healthcare Monday-Friday 7am-4pm so weekdays are best for evening sitting or boarding pets that can handle being alone for that time. I am completely free on the weekends. I am an early riser and love to get out and enjoy the sunshine with a pet but am happy to stay close to home for pet needs. I do prefer to walk on leash as I don’t have a fenced in area and do like to ensure safety of the pets I care for and others around. There is a fenced in dog park a short walk from my apartment to let dogs run off leash if approved by owner. I don’t have any pets in my home so if I am to sit at my residence the pet would be in a secure and private environment. I keep a clean and safe household for all types of pets. I also am respectful and receptive to all household and pet needs on an individual basis.
“Stuart and his girlfriend, Ryan, were terrific caregivers for our very active 2 yr old JRT who had separation anxiety. He was quite challenging at first because he has only been away from us for a day or so, and then he stayed with someone he knew. They sent wonderful photos and kept me well informed. Also, from the photos, it was clear that they were out and about and keeping our little guy occupied and having fun. We were so pleased because, truthfully, we had a bit of separation anxiety from him, too. We would not hesitate to recommend Stuart to care for your furry famiy member.”

“We needed someone to keep our dog for the night while we went to a concert in Vail. Lola was so happy at Erin’s with both of her pups, lots of walks, a big fenced yard, and another rover pup to play with. We are so thankful and would absolutely use Erin to watch Lola again in the future.”

“Megan was an outstanding sitter for my pup Chai. She was very communicative, drop off/pickup were easy, and she also sent proactive updates (with photos) at the end of each day. It was clear that Chai had a great couple of days with Megan - I would strongly recommend her to anyone else seeking help for their pup!”

“Amy was amazing with my little Sola. She (& her dog Jackson) made her feel at home with walks, cuddles, and attention, and, me at ease, it being my first time using Rover. I would highly recommend Amy to anyone and their dog.”

“Rachel and her family are amazing! They cared for my dog Rosie as one of the family. This was the most secure I’ve felt leaving my dog with someone while going out of town. I wouldn’t use anyone else if they are available to watch her. Thanks Rachel!”

About: I’ve owned dogs and taken care of family and friend’s for decades. I’m an animal lover of all types, but particularly man’s furry best friend! I work remote for a nonprofit and have plenty of flexibility within my schedule. Wednesday and Thursday nights I am unavailable, otherwise let’s chat and find time for your pup. I do not offer care in my home. I will come to you and provide comfort and care for your dog in the environment they are used to, ensuring whatever unique needs they have are met!
“Monica was absolutely exceptional! She took such wonderful care of our dog, Bea, and treated her like one of her own. Every day she took Bea to the lake to play fetch, which was the highlight of her day, and it was clear she received so much love, attention, and exercise. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would gladly book Monica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for outstanding care.”
“We highly recommend Nevada for all of your pet care needs! She is experienced, knowledgeable, dependable and flexible. Our dog Birdie is shy with strangers, but Nevada was patient and attentive and made her feel right at home. Her sweet dog Duke is a gentle soul and was very accepting of Birdie in his space. Nevada will treat your pet like her own, providing lots of love and exercise! Birdie always comes home happy and smiling!”

“Aaron was great. Was able to take care of my dogs with short notice. Great communication and flexibility. Will definitely reach out to Aaron again if I need my dogs to be taken care of. Thanks”

“Melissa and Scott were fantastic. Charlie is on several medications and had sprained his leg before the stay, but I had no worries leaving him with them! They sent lots of pics and took the best care of him.”
