“This was our first time having our dogs stay with Danielle, and I really cannot say enough kind things about her. From the first time we met with her she was welcoming, and made me feel very at ease with leaving our dogs with her. It was evident they were well taken care of, enjoyed lots of outdoor activity time, and lots of cuddles! Loved getting pictures every day showing how much fun they were having. Both dogs came home EXHAUSTED, which we know means they had a great time!”

“Kari was a great host for our dogs. Her updates were frequent and just what we needed to keep us informed. They had a great time and we will definitely work with Kari again. Thank you.”

“Brenda is an absolute gem! From the very first meet and greet, she was so welcoming and reassuring, I knew Dingo would be in good hands. Her passion for animals shines through every time you talk to her. She provided amazing communication throughout the stay and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our Dingo dog!”
“Kaylee is AMAZING! She went above and beyond taking care of our dog over a long weekend! She did so many different activities with him and sent us multiple pictures and updates every day! We cannot thank her enough for taking such good care of our dog! We highly recommend her and can’t wait to use her again in the future!!”

“Gina and Brett took great care of Sophie! They played lots of ball, said they had fun with her and that she is welcome back. We will definitely use them again!”


“Red was great. She was open to accommodating Camilo for a week at her house. Camilo loved the space to run and to play with her dogs. She sent videos of Milo playing. I’m sure he had a really good time, and I was at peace leaving him with her.”

“Nick was so easy to work with and my dogs loved staying at his house. They are a little anxious but I could tell they immediately felt at ease with Nick and his home. Would definitely recommend Nick and will be using him again in the future. Thanks Nick!”
“Courtney was the Best! Brutus was in such good hands. Stop looking this is the one right here. Outstanding with communication and sending videos and pictures. Courtney was very caring loving and went above and beyond with Brutus. Couldn't ask for a better sitter we will be a repeat customer and highly recommend”

“DeAnn was incredible as always! She was accommodating with our tight schedule, was great at sending updates and pictures, and my dog came back to me happy and worn out from all the play time he got! We will continue to take our dog to DeAnn again and again!”

“Trevor was great! Super easy to communicate with and my pup came home happy and sleepy. He updated every day and worked super well with last minute changes. Would use again!”

“Kendra is an amazing sitter who took great care of our goldendoodle puppy while he was sick with pneumonia, including administering his medications, feeding him specialized food/water, and dealing with a whole host of instructions from our vet. She was incredibly communicative, caring, and would recommend her taking care of any dog!”

“My experience with them was amazing and couldn’t have asked for any other than them , they took very good care of Astro and he was loved , taken care of like their own and made me feel at ease when I was away on vacation, they updated everyday about his activities and loved it , I would definitely recommend them to everyone, I felt so happy that I picked them for Astro , he loved them and missed them when he got back home too !!”

“Kim did such an amazing job with my three dogs!! She cared for them so well and sent plenty of pics and updates :) my pups seemed very happy when I came back to get them! Even her mother (who is so sweet) joined in the fun and said how much she loves the pups. We will definitely be visiting again!!”

“I couldn’t have asked for a kinder sitter for my fur baby! CJ was so amazing and patient with me after multiple flight delays. Traveling for work is stressful enough so knowing that my little one was well taken care meant so much to me.”

“Jennifer is amazing!!! I was so comfortable having her come check on my pup, and she was very observant and detailed in what happened while she was there. My dog who so happy in every single picture and video! We will definitely be booking with Jennifer again!”


“Jennie did such a great job taking care of our boys! She made sure they each got individual attention, and even gave our Loki some outside time on the deck - which is is his favorite! She also went above and beyond and stopped by a second time after Mongo didn't eat all his food on her first visit. Will definitely use Jennie again!~”


“Holly took care of my 2 cats and my froggy for a few days. She was super responsive, polite, and everything was in great shape when I got back from my trip. I will reach out to her in the future if I ever need pet sitting.”


“Shana was fantastic with my fiesta cat. I had to be gone on an extended work trip, and I worried that my cat would be anxious and lonely. Shana spent quality time with my cat, made sure the visits were calming, and the cat seemed less stressed when I got home. I couldn't be more thankful. I recommend Shana as a pet sitter, she truly loves pets.”

“Sarah was outstanding as a home/cat sitter. She took careful notes and photos of instructions as we did the meet and greet in my home. Also, it was clear from the photos she sent me when I was away that my two kitties warmed up to her and that she entertained and cared for them. I can't say enough good things about her and will have her stay at my home with my kitties again!”


“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.”

“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!”


“Kathy always takes great care of our cat. I would highly recommend her. She provides thorough updates and spends a good amount of time with our cat each visit.”


“Nicole was amazing at watching our cat for a week. We said we were flexible with evening drop in times and she had great communication keeping us in the loop for when she would be stopping over. She paid attention to the little details and was very understanding of our cat and his behaviors. Would absolutely book with her again!”


“Kelly is always amazing! Kitties love her and she brings toys and things to make the kitties comfortable during her visits. She is great at communicating and makes our trips easier away from them.”


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!

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 work in education and have summers (and holiday stretches) off. My dog recently passed away. He was a large / elderly / mobility-assisted / diapered / blind / medicated dog I had adopted almost 8 years ago. I had adopted a hospice dog in 2023 as well - she was a large breed with multiple cancers, so I am also familiar with that type of end of life care. I love dogs. I have used Rover often and now I would love the chance to use our empty home this summer to pet sit for others! I have an open summer! I work in education and have summers off. I do not have a schedule that I must adhere to. This is a flexible time for me. There are no other pets in our home. I know this is important for some to feel content with their pet being cared for, so this might fill a need that is harder to find!
“Danielle was such a lifesaver when I needed my Chewy picked up last minute on the 4th of July! She was so wonderful and went above and beyond to help me out in a pinch and picked up Chewy for me since I was already out of town. Then I was delayed getting home and she was willing to host him another night last minute also and was so sweet in trying to not make me feel bad about the last minute change (Again!). She is the best and definitely my new go-to Chewy sitter :) She sent so many photos and gave him lots of love and attention. Thank you so much Danielle!!! :)))”

“Lorraine is Amazing. Shyla loves going to her house playing with her friends and hanging out with her favorite people. Fur baby loving family Shyla will definitely use Lorraine as a home away from home”

“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!”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 and treated them as my own child! I’m experienced with medications and injuries as my own two babies have battled bronchitis and hip surgery. Family and friends rely on me for dietary and overall health of their furkids! My fur kid is my world! *Boarding and Daycare services include a daily walk (weather permitting) (This is a child free home). I’m currently working part-time and am usually home (working remotely) 2 days a week and half days the other 3. My schedule is very flexible. I walk my dogs almost daily and they have a large fenced backyard to play and roam. There is a park next to my home with many trails and parks within a 5 mile radius.
“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!”

“Jake was incredibly friendly and great at providing updates throughout the day! His love of caring for my dog (and his/others) is genuine. My dog came home tired but happy!”

About: Hi! I am a dog owner for many years and am eager to welcome new friends into our home to provide a stimulating environment for our high energy pet. We have a wonderful backyard space ready for pups to run wild and free and will provide no shortage of couch cuddling as well. I work from home so am able to provide frequent potty breaks and daily walks. We have a pretty open schedule to host your beloved furry friend. I have a wonderful large fenced yard and a 5 year old puppy who is the most friendly host. I can crate your dog as needed as well.

About: I basically grew up in a zoo (the fun kind), and caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I graduated from an animal training program in my 20s, spent three years as a vet tech (I love exotics too), and now work as an RN, so your pets are in very attentive, capable hands. Over the past four years, I’ve fostered 50+ dogs, helping them feel safe, loved, and totally spoiled while they waited for their forever homes. I’m the friend everyone calls when they need a pet sitter… and I’d love to be that person for you, too! Pet care is woven into my everyday life. As a longtime foster, my days naturally revolve around walks, training, and snuggles. I am not a certified trainer, but I love to incorporate the basics for every animal in my care. This includes training with walks. Working as an RN has made me highly organized and attentive to routines, so I'm very comfortable sticking to feeding times, medication schedules, and special care instructions. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, crate time, medication, and training cues. With my background in animal training and experience as a vet tech, I'm confident handling different temperaments, reinforcing positive behaviors, and monitoring for signs of stress or illness. On walks, I focus on structured, safe outings that are both enriching and fun. I use secure leashing, stay aware of surroundings, and tailor the pace to your dog's energy level and needs. (I'm also a runner if they enjoy that).
“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!”

“Thanks again Kristin! They had a good day with you and Jenny. It was obvious that Dini wasn’t particularly interested in going home. She probably would have hung out with her new friends a lot longer!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the start, they were flexible with both drop off and pick up times, which made our day so much less stressful. They sent picture updates that kept us feeling connected and reassured. Our pup recently had surgery for torn CCL’s and they monitored her activity making sure there was no jumping or rough play while still keeping her happy with love and attention. I was surprised by how excited our pup was to arrive, which is rare since she typically doesn’t like being left anywhere. Seeing her tail wag going into a new place and her happy, relaxed demeanor at pickup said it all. She clearly felt comfortable and cared for. We’re so grateful to have found such a wonderful sitter and will definitely be booking with them again!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our dog! The updates and pictures meant so much to us - Teddy came home exhausted! Luna is such a sweet playmate too! Looking forward to booking many more with Mari and Luna!”

“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.”

“We are so happy that David was able to walk our pup on a day we would be gone most of the day. We came home to a very happy and tired our boy. We look forward to working more with David in the future.”

“Jenner has been wonderful with my dog Jace and always keeps informed on how things went on their daily walks. She is very good with dogs. I would definitely recommend her!”

About: I am a long time pet owner who currently owns two cats named Reggie and Ash. I would have a pup if I had the back yard for one, so hopefully soon! I grew up around dogs and have had them for most of my life. I would love to walk your dog, do drop in visits, or even take them to the park! I am very active and love walking, hiking, and running. I also have a fondness for cats! I am happy to drop in and spend some time while you are out of town or gone during the day, even if that means getting ignored by an aloof kitty cat! I am flexible and happy to work with whatever needs your fur baby may have. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible! I currently work remote so I have breaks in my day to walk dogs, do drop ins, or spend some time with animals that need extra love during the day! I currently do not offer services for pets in my household. I have two cats and they get pretty stressed when I bring animals in the home. It’s best I stop into your home!
“Jennie is great with my dog Buddy! Buddy is a rescue and she has been working with him on walking, which is definitely a challenge because he is a large, Great Pyrenees pup! Thank you for all that you do for Buddy and I!”

“Justin was great with our dogs. Especially my Ginny. She’s shy and warmed up to him. She was sitting by the door this morning waiting for him to come. 10/10 will use him again!!!”

About: I love relating to animals from domesticated furry friends to those habitat in nature. I am not intimidated by size or medical needs & would relish the opportunity to help your fur baby feel loved & cared for. I have had the honor and pleasure to be entrusted to care for the dogs & cats of my friends & neighbors for over 50 years. I love being outside so I don’t mind taking a four-legged friend for a walk or spending time in a backyard playing catch or tug with their favorite chew toy. I also just like to honor “special time” on a lap, giving cuddles and pets. I have two cats of my own that recently incurred expenses for dental surgery. I was looking for ways to earn extra money when the Rover services popped up as an option. I thought it would be a perfect fit. I would love the opportunity to give your pet some extra care, so that I can care for my cats. My full-time job is at a high school and I have some free time in the summer. During June and July, I am available morning, midday and evenings for dog walks, dog sitting or cat sitting. When school starts my availability becomes limited to midday and evenings. Let’s talk how I can work around your schedule. My sweet cats get me up early, making me available to care for your baby first thing in the morning. Midday is very flexible for walks or cuddles as well as late afternoon & evening. Let’s talk about the best time for your pet. My two cats & I enjoy our fenced back yard each morning & evening. Ive had the pleasure of hosting pet friends for overnights at our house. Im also willing & able to meet the desires of others in their familiar spaces.
“Amanda was great at communicating her timing, as well as letting me know how my dog was doing. It seemed like he really enjoyed his walk! I also really appreciated all of the photos she shared.”

“Caleb came through last minute when we needed help. He showed up within an hour and handled our 125lb Saint Bernese mix like a pro. Reliable, responsive, and great with big dogs, we’ll definitely be booking him again.”

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.

About: Hi! I’m Daria. I have experience with dogs large and small. I used to own 2 German Shepherds and I now own two Shiba Inus. I provide lots of love, snuggles, and playtime! When I’m pet sitting, I make sure your pet gets lots of exercise and attention. I’m happy to give them meds and follow any special instructions. I work from home, and have lots of free time during the day and evenings. I’m happy to take your pets on walks or provide potty breaks throughout the day. If boarding at my house: I have a large fenced yard that is secure. I have a 3 bedroom home and lots of room for your pet. My dogs are friendly and up to date on shots and neutered. They get along with all breeds and sizes of dogs. If staying at your place, I treat it with respect and keep it tidy.
“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.”
“Reliable, available and gives updates if something seems off on your pup. Also sometimes takes pups on runs which is awesome for my high energy pup, would recommend!”

About: I have several years of experience caring for pets and have pet-sat and walked dogs for neighbors and friends. I currently take care of my two dogs, feeding, walking, and playtime, along with other basic care like teeth brushing. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. I am currently home in Colorado for the summer after completing my freshman year of college. While I am taking an online class and have occasional babysitting commitments, I maintain a flexible schedule and am available for both planned and last-minute pet care needs. I am committed to providing dependable, attentive care whenever your pet needs it! Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I strive to ensure your pet is comfortable and well cared for while you are away. I am responsible, attentive, and committed to keeping pets safe both inside and outside the home. Following your pet's structure and routines is a priority for me. I love communication and also provide regular updates so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are well cared for.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I can remember. We had horses, dogs, cats, pigs, goats, hamsters, and the list goes on. I’d love to meet and care for your pet as my own while you’re away. I’m currently a stay at home mom but I have been a registered nurse for 6 years. Caring for others is in my nature. I grew up on 10 acres with a lot of animals to care and enjoyed doing it! I’m happy to give medications as needed. I have a large fenced yard and a sun room with plenty of sleeping space for pups. We have 4 pups of our own. One of which is crated. All are spayed or neutered and super friendly!
“Staci does such a fantastic job!! I know that my dog is in good hands when Staci is walking her. I had never used a service like this before so I was a little nervous but Staci sends updates and pictures after the walk which put my mind at ease! I'm telling everyone I know how great Staci is! I would recommend her to anyone!!!!”

“Christina is wonderful! We entrusted her with Remy’s care while taking in the local sights for several hours. We received several pictures and a full report. We couldn’t be happier and would look to use her services again while in the area ?”

They were also very accommodating to a busy schedule that required a few changes for pick up times. It was clear my pet was not only well cared for but truly loved. It will be my pleasure to use their services again and I highly recommend Jeni & Ashlie!”
