“Kari is a fantastic sitter! She always provides photo updates on Sadie throughout the day, and Sadie comes home tuckered out from playing with Kari's dog. We'll definitely continue using Kari for future boarding”
“I'm so lucky I found Kaylee at the last minute to take care of my sick pup. We were headed out for spring break right when he came down with kennel cough, and she stepped in without hesitation. Kaylee took such great care of him. She sent daily pictures and updates, which really eased my worries. I appreciated her so much.”
“Cara was great with Finn when we went out of the country for a week. Finn seemed so happy to be hanging with them when we picked her up. She even gave her a bath and brush, which was unexpected and a nice added touch to get a nice clean pup after a week away. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Cara for our boarding needs in the future!”
“Mazie really seemed to love her stay with Brett, Gina and their kids. She was well taken care of. The family sent a few photo updates that was much appreciated and they gave her plenty of walks and affection. Highly recommend them!”
“Brenda was an amazing dog sitter and I would recommend her to everyone reading this review. She was very responsive, provided photos/updates, and cared after our dog as well as anyone could. She will definitely be our go-to!”
“Siddhi is the best! It’s easy to tell from the photos she takes that my cat is always having a good time when he stays :) Her home is a very safe environment for cats to rest and play at.”
“As usual, Ozzy came back more spoiled than ever. Thanks so much, Jess. We know we can always count on you and the family to take great care of our lad. Really enjoyed the pics and videos.”
“DeAnn was amazing! She treated my dog like it was her own. Between the hikes, long walks, play time and cuddles on the couch, I could tell Denver loved being with her and her family. I am so grateful for such a responsive and loving doggy sitter. I will definitely be reaching out again.”
“Our Chihuahua mix 3.5 year old 15 lb. male dog loved Cassia and became fast friends with her French bull dog puppy. Cassia was very conscientious about following my instructions for feeding, walking, and using dog bed and kennel. Our dog has a special diet and was taking medication, which Cassia handled with no problems. Cassia is a very kind person and she was very attentive to our pet, allowing him to sit in her lap after work and even one day during work. Since she works from home, Cassia is always available to attend to your dog, letting him out in her fenced yard during the day, playing with him, and making sure that he is comfortable and safe. She also sent several photos each day which were delightful and reassuring. I highly recommend Cassia as a pet sitter, especially for smaller dogs.”
“My English Setter, Lucky had another amazing two-night stay with Julia! Julia was so incredibly helpful in adjusting her schedule to accommodate Lucky and I really appreciate her for doing that! She was very prompt with her communication and sent me lots of updates and pictures. Made me smile! :) You can tell Julia is a true dog lover and takes extremely good care to make sure my dog is comfortable and loved. I highly recommend Julia for your overnight needs for your fur baby!”
“Emily was amazing with communication. I appreciate how she followed all my directions and gave such great care to Morty. Would highly recommend her family if your dog loves children!”
“Kim and Audreanna took such good care of our boy. They sent daily pictures and updates and he was happy when we got back. We're so grateful for the obvious care they put into taking care of him while we were gone”
“Deb is the best! Our dog is always well taken care of. He had to take some antibiotics this time and Deb was willing to administer. He came back to us healthy and happy!”
“We were SO happy with the love and care given to Brewski by Nichole and Chris and their family while we were away for 5 days! And super friendly and helpful during the drop-off and pickup, too. We enjoyed seeing several pictures daily, and we would definitely ask for these folks again - Rover.com is great!”
“Tyler took exceptional care of my dog while I was out of town. I got frequent pictures throughout the day of my pup having the time of his life! Apollo was exhausted when I got back from playing, and going on walks everyday. He’s a great person and I didn’t have to worry at all while I was gone. I would 1000% recommend Tyler to watch your dog. I will be reaching out again the next time I have to go out of town!”
“Frank has watched Milo for years now, sometimes for a week at a time. Knowing Milo is safe and happy is priceless. Frank is very reliable and communicative. I highly recommend him.”

“Jennifer was a lifesaver with Bowie! She sent the sweetest photo updates and made leaving him so much easier. He warmed up to her right away, and I’ll definitely be asking her to cat-sit again!”
About: I have had cats since 2017 and reptiles since 2016. I personally have a three legged cat named Pancho. I have been the go to person for family and friends when they need a pet sitter. I have pet sit for parents whose fur babies need daily medication. I enjoy spending time with animals to get to know their unique personalities! I understand the level of trust that is being shared with me by parents and I’m fully committed to helping you and your sweet babies!
“Megan took such great care of our cat. I felt very comfortable leaving him at home and she sent me pictures and updates after each visit. She went above and beyond and cleaned out his food bowls with each visit. I would 10/10 recommend Megan and would have her watch our pet anytime in the future. Thank you, Megan!!!”
“Kathy, we cannot thank you enough for being so reliable and wonderful as we stepped away for a longer-than-usual trip. We appreciate your consistency, great notes and images of both our kitties (even though one of them is quite the scaredy cat). We had great peace of mind knowing you were here and taking care of them. Thank you!”
“If you want great communication, great care, great pics of play time, and funny anecdotes about what your pet is doing in your absence, Jennie's your girl. She's absolutely fantastic!”
“Tamra goes not just the extra mile but the extra ten miles! Not only does my cat adore her, my home is well cared for too. Tamra gives me total peace of mind while I’m away. Highly recommended.”
“Holly is amazing with my three kitties! She gives amazing check in cards and fills me in on all the mischief that my cats tend to get into when I’m away. She has been so patient and taken care of broken decorations and spilled plant dirt that my cats did, even though she definitely didn’t need to. I highly recommend her for pet sitting needs :)”
“I can’t say enough good things about Michelle. She consistently goes above and beyond—on one occasion even picking up treats when I ran out, which meant I came home to a very happy (and very spoiled) cat. What really stands out is how much she genuinely cares. It’s clear she loves what she does, and more importantly, she truly loves my cat—and the feeling is mutual. He’s completely comfortable with her, which says everything. It gives me real peace of mind knowing he’s in such thoughtful, attentive hands. Highly recommend.”
“Jennifer did an excellent job caring for my puppy. She kept me informed throughout her visit This was my first time leaving my puppy with anyone. I appreciate her calm, reassuring presence. I came home to a calm, happy puppy. I now feel confident that I can make future plans for outings and my puppy will be in good hands. Thank you, Jennifer!”
“Maia watched my kitty Eggroll for 2 weeks while I was out for the country. She came by for an hour each day and my cat just absolutely loves her. My kitty is a little older and does need some extra care (meds) but she handled this perfectly! She was great with pictures and updates and even got my kitty a new catnip toy which Eggroll just absolutely loved!”
“I am so grateful to Vicki! She took good care of Calli while I was out of town for a few days. She always filled out the drop-in cards in their entirety and added pictures so I could see Calli’s happy face. 🐶”
“We are grateful that our new puppy received some attention and got his puppy energy out while we were at work. Thank you for your care, the communication, and photos!”
“Mary was fantastic. She took great care of my girls. I know this because they acted like I had never left when I got home. She was on time for her visits and sent the cutest pictures. I was able to relax and enjoy my time knowing eveeything was good at home. I highly recommend Mary and will request her help in the future.”
“Tim was great. Sent lots of pictures and really worked hard to be on good terms with our more anti-social kitty. He communicated well and handled our pets medical issues professionally.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Columbine
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I've taken care of dogs all my life and believe they are truly family and should be cared for as such. I do have some experience with senior care. My most recent dog lived until 13.5 years and needed extra love and care. I currently have a 10 month old French Bulldog. I work from home, so all dogs will get personal, full time care at any time of the day or night. I just adopted a 10 month old French Bulldog named Winston - who loves other dogs! Any dogs in my care will get full time attention from both me and Winston! I have a large, fenced in yard. It's only a 4 foot tall chain link fence so I can't take jumping dogs. But any smaller/ non-escape artist dogs will have plenty of room to play and run. I work from home so I will be able to watch/ play with dogs the entire time they are in my care.
“Courtney and Chris were great! Courtney had fast and excellent communication and cared for Luna well. I was even sent home with a painting my dog did, so cute. I’ll definitely use them again.”
“Our sweet buddy had a great day! Came home happy and tired :) Danielle was super attentive, responsive, punctual and overall loved on our pup. We loved and appreciated the photo and video updates throughout the day too so we could see how he was doing. Highly recommend!”
“Definitely recommend and will use Brandi again to look after my dogs. I was able to go to work with a great sense of peace of mind knowing my fur baby was in exceptional hands. 6 stars if I could!”
“Cara is great! Rowdie loves her and gets super excited when I say “want to go see Cara”. She is flexible and sends me pics during the day of Rowdie playing and having a great time. Highly recommend!”
“Brooke took great care of my five-month-old puppy during her first ever Rover visit. She was thoughtful about introducing her to the other dogs and kept me updated with photos and videos so I could see what a great time she was having. Looking forward to Sophie’s next visit with Brooke & Nathan!”
“Krista was warm and friendly, my dog bonded with her immediately. The location is lovely and overall, it was an excellent experience, I will definitely use her again!”
“Steven was awesome with my pup! Lots of walks for my active girl Kira to all the good parks. He sent a bunch of really good update photos/texts too! I’ve noticed her leash makers have gotten better since he has been watching her too which is super nice. Steven went out of his way to make sure my dog got her exercise which is huge for her and I don’t have to worry about her when I’m at work. Highly recommend!”
“Katie and her family treated my pup with the absolute kindness, compassion and care. They really love animals and it shows! Katie is a great communicator and updated me with pics and texts. Her home is safe, spacious and so clean. My dog had a wonderful stay and would recommend them to anyone looking for a safe and comfy place for their beloved dog! Thank you for a most lovely stay and we will be back! 5 star sitter here!”
“Heather was amazing! She made sure my sweet puppy was well cared for and looked after. It definitely put me at ease. My doggy loves playing with the other older pups and running around in the yard. Thank you Heather for taking care of my baby!”
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.
“Rebecca took wonderful care of our Giant Schnauzer while we were in town visiting. She was flexible, awesome communication and allowed a late night pickup so we could go to Meow Wolf. When we came back to get her, we could see through the window that everyone was chilling on the couch watching a movie. She has a great backyard too!”
About: I am a stay at home Mom who works part-time. I have a big yard, secure fence and a wonderful playmate for your dog to have the best time ever! Happy to walk and cuddle as needed. Barkers welcome! Stay at home Mom with a large, secure yard in Columbine. I work out of the home part-time, I have two kiddos 50% of the time and single, sweet one year old Great Pyrenees male dog who loves to play. I am a regular volunteer for Evergreen Animal Protective League, and I have helped rehome six dogs in the past year. I have a large, secure back yard with grass, shade and plenty of space to run and sniff. Dogs are allowed inside and I am happy to cuddle on the couch with them! I have extra crates available if needed.
“Our dog Max had a positive experience in Tiffany’s home. We could tell, because he was excited to head over to her house first thing in the morning, even after we were home from our trip. A doggy endorsement is the best kind! Tiffany was warm, professional, and a good communicator. We hope Max will be able to visit her for doggy day care again in the future.”
“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!”
“DeFi had a fantastic time at Kris’s place today! She updated me with timely pictures throughout his stay, which was reassuring. Kris was very communicative, and DeFi was exhausted from all the playtime with her dogs. He is a happy boy! I highly recommend her, and we’ll be back soon!”

“Wonderful experience with Jennie. She was a great communicator and really took the time to care for our pup. Jennie went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of.”
About: Experienced dog walker for young and seniors. I have owned multiple dogs at the same time. I am skilled at having kids and dogs in the house. I am available Mondays, Fridays, Saturday and Sunday all day for walks and lots of loving. I am available for hikes and long walks as well. I am a very dependable, loving dog person and owner. I will follow your instructions for caring for your dog exactly and give them lots of love and attention.
“Thank you Jennifer! I appreciate your detailed walks! I always have her off leash so that’s probably why she also didn’t know what to do on leash with you and didn’t poop until you let her in the dog park. Glad you were able to navigate that!!!”
About: We provide a home with love and care. We are used to dogs that may need a bit more attention and we have a yard to play and run in. There are two days a week where your dog would need to be trusted at home with a doggie door. Talk with us about those days but otherwise someone is with that pup We have a fenced large yard for them especially if they like the outdoors. There is space in the house for their own bed, crates and will always have accessibility to the indoors and outdoor. We do have a 6ft fence for those that can jump. We can accommodate one family at a time if requested.
“Clay had an instant rapport with Bucky and, despite freezing weather, took him on a long walk around the neighborhood. We were very pleased with his efforts and hope to have him back soon. He is most pleasant and easy to work with.”
“Caleb is easy to communicate with, easy-going, and reliable. He has a very natural way with dogs. I never worried once that our 68-lb princess wasn't in very good hands. Highly recommended.”
“Vickie is so awesome, It was last minute and she was able to help us with our Tessa's walking needs! She goes out of her way! She is our Tessa's dog walker for sure!”
“Matthew is very straight forward. Meets your expectations. Asks questions if clarification is needed. No fuss walker who knows that the last thing you need is to be worried about your pup! My dog loves his walks with Matthew. Was nervous after recent experiences, but he has made this one thing I don’t have to worry about during the day!”
“We needed a dog walker at the last minute and Ian really came through for us. He responded quickly, was reliable and professional, and took wonderful care of Bella! We are so grateful, would highly recommend, and will definitely use him again!!”
About: I’ve taken care of my own pets as well as family and friends my entire life whether it was for vacation, because my parents were working, etc. I am happy to take care of any babies as I love animals and just want to spread the love! I’m currently working 3 days out of the week over at Walmart because I’m taking real estate licensing courses. I would love to take care of some pets in my free time rather than watching tv or doing arts and crafts. I’m currently in an apartment and don’t have a yard, however I know how to properly walk a dog on leash as Ive taken dog training classes with my family dogs. I would not go by any main roads on a walk just for precaution and safety reasons, though a nice long walk in the neighborhood would be great! I enjoy making sure pets have enough water, food, and energy-burning time.
“Tamra is an excellent choice for you and your family! She helped us when my work schedule wouldn’t allow me to pop home and walk our pup. She was always very friendly, communicative, and loved all the babies in the home. Book Tamra!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets for the past five years. I’ve been reliable in walking, feeding, and all around caring for friends pets and look forward to being able to do that for others! I love hikes and walks, so I’m eager to keep pets active, but am always down for a good pet cuddle. I never grew up with dogs or cats of my own, so pet sitting has been a consistent way for me to get all the animal loving I need! I am a college student and work part-time, so I’m used to having a consistent routine and managing my time responsibly. During pet sitting visits, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, bathroom breaks, food, and playtime throughout the day. I especially enjoy taking dogs on walks or getting outside with them when possible. For overnight stays, I’m able to settle into the pet’s normal routine and make sure they have plenty of companionship and care while their owners are away. I’m happy to follow each pet’s established schedule and routines so they feel comfortable and at home. I have my own car, so can easily make it to a home at any point, whether that be over a few nights or just a quick visit. I am experienced with dogs and cats of all sizes and am willing to adjust to whatever meets your needs best.
About: I started working at a veterinary hospital at age 12 and continued there until college. The vet had a doggy daycare and boarding facility. I also have watched dogs in my home for 15 years. I am now a human nurse and able to offer standard first aide care as well as medication administration. I care very deeply for all the dogs I watch and treat them like my own! I am an oncology nurse and work (only 4 days a week). I am gone from 7:30 am until 5 pm Monday-Thursday and have a family member come over around lunchtime to let my dogs out for a potty break and walk. I am home on the weekends and if I am out and about- it’s something I can bring the dogs to (hikes, parks). I have 2 school aged kids at home. I have a small fenced yard in our townhome. My backyard backs up to a green belt so potty breaks are often done there, on a leash. I also do longer walks (30 min) morning and night. Friday-Sunday we tend to do longer walks or hikes when the weather allows. I have a black lab who is very friendly with others. She can be playful but she can also be respectful of dogs who need space. She gets along with all temperaments. I have a large kennel and a small kennel in my home if needed. My home is doggy proofed (locked cabinets and trash cans) so I let them have full reign of the house if potty trained and not destructive.
About: We have been around dogs for a very long time. As a couple, my wife and I, got our first dog in our wedding trip. Since then, we could not live without at least one dog in the house. We owned an English Cocker Spaniel, an American Cocker Spaniel, a Lab mix, a Dachshund, an American yellow Lab. We currently own a chocolate merle American Cocker Spaniel. We also take care of cats. We are retired, and available at all times during the day to love and care for your dogs and cats. We are performing our duties seriously, without skipping over anything. We are extremely careful about dogs' and cats' safety. We have medical training and on walks / trips we carry a backpack with medical emergency supplies. We like to think ahead and be prepared for any situation.
About: I have experience with exercising and feeding dogs while their owner is away for a long day. Have house/cat sat many times. My expertise is cats due to owning them and watching friends cats often. But I also love taking care of dogs and making sure they’re happy when their owners life gets too busy. I am available in evenings and weekends. Mondays and Fridays, I work remotely so I can do check ins during the day. My full time job is flexible. I like to watch pets in their own environment. Makes them loads more comfortable. I am able to tell when an animal is scared and don’t push their limits and use patience to let them come to me.
“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!”
