“Our Pekingese Miso has major stranger danger and rarely warms up to people, but she absolutely loved Joan! We got daily updates from Joan, including multiple photos and videos per day of all of Miso’s awesome adventures! She was walked multiple times a day, well exercised and got to play a bunch both with Joan and her new doggy friends. She came home happy and tired. We look forward to using Joan again in the future!”
“Jenna took such good care of my dog, taking him on a great hike for the day I needed her to watch him (even with a short notice of needing her sitting help) Very happy and would recommend!”
“Absolutely amazing! Cori was so welcoming and kind to my dogs. It was my first time using Rover and Cori was beyond helpful. I dropped my dogs off with her to undergo a surgery in Denver and Cori was absolutely fantastic with communication and posted updates on how much fun the dogs were having. It was really a huge stress taken off my shoulder. Her place seemed perfect for active dogs like mine with a good trail very close by.”
About: Hi! I’m Stuss — a firefighter/paramedic and lifelong dog person based near Keystone/Dillon. Outside of work I volunteer at the Frisco Animal Shelter and with Summit Lost Pet Rescue, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of dogs: puppies, seniors, shy dogs, reactive dogs etc. I’ve also owned two dogs through their whole lives, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your best friend with someone else. My setup is simple: I only take one dog at a time (or two from the same household). That means your dog gets my full attention, a calm environment, and care that’s tailored to their routine — not a busy “pack” situation. I donate 20% of my earnings on Rover to the local animal shelter/rescue work I support. My work schedule is 48 hour shifts, and then I have a block of 4 days off. Some of those days I go on adventures, and some of those days I chill around the house. Those "rest days" are when I open my calendar up for dog sitting, so, your dog(s) will have my company all day while I'm at home doing chores, relaxing, and getting outside. I love to hike year round and I will take your dog with me, if they're up for it. I always match the day to your dog. Energetic dogs can join for longer walks/hikes, and seniors can take it slow with short strolls and extra couch time. I live in a ground-floor condo at the end of a quiet street with trails and open space nearby. With your permission, I also drive a few minutes to local trailheads for variety, and I kind of specialize in knowing quiet places to hike without the crowds. I live alone in a quiet, uncluttered home — great for dogs who do best in a calm space. Dogs are welcome on the couch and bed (unless you prefer otherwise). I stick closely to your dog’s normal routine: meals, meds, potty schedule, exercise, and any special instructions.
“Ben did an incredible job to help us out on pretty short notice for an 8 day watch of our 17 yr old small dog; he kept us up to date and is extremely pleasant and thoughtful man. His place is a dog’s heaven with lots of walking and out door space in heart of Keystone. Will most definitely use again in the future. Our “pup” almost did not want to leave when I came to pick her up. You can’t go wrong with Ben - he is Outstanding dog sitter !!!”
“Bridget is incredible! She took excellent care of my high energy dog and send lots of updates. Bridget was very accommodating and flexible with my flight delays. Highly recommend!!”
“Amanda was great! She responded quickly and was able to accommodate on short notice. She sent pictures and took Maggie on one of her favorite walks! I had a tired pup when I picked her up, which is always a guarantee that she had a good time. I will definitely be using Amanda again!”
“I can’t say enough about the wonderful experience we had with Tia and her family. First experience with Rover - and it was great. Our Rocky became a member of the family- took hikes - snuggled at night and when i picked him up - i could see he was well-loved. Thank you Tia!!”
About: I have taken care of a dogs and cats since the age of 10 years old. I love all animals equally and generally am the animal guru with any of my friends. I live in a small apartment in Denver and wish I could have an animal of my own here. So instead I would love to take care of yours. I’ve raised 3 puppies on my own - two Husky Wolf Hybrids and a German Husky Cattle Dog Mix. I am well trained on walking, feeding, energy and communication with the animals. I work from home Mon-Fri so my schedule is pretty lax and I am available to take care of your pets. Looking forward to mornings and evenings any day of the week. **Please note if my calendar appears to be blocked out on a day or period of time that you are looking to schedule. Please reach out to me and I will do my best to accommodate your request. I respond very quickly to all requests. Thank you. ** I plan creating a safe environment when taking care of your animal. Whether it be on a walk and being aware of my surroundings or in your home. The goal here is for your pet to feel as though they have not been left alone. Spending quality time with them is my utmost priority. **House Sitting Requests - please note that the majority of the time I will need to bring my pup with me to a house sitting request. He is well behaved, crate trained, and loves other dogs (he has zero aggression), and is neutered. There are a few occasions potentially with enough notice that I don’t need to bring him along but in the cases that I do I ask that your dog(s) are friendly and will enjoy having extra company ** ** Boarding Requests - in order for me to accept a boarding request the dog(s) must be dog and cat friendly. Typically a meet and greet would be required to make sure there are no issues. Please let me know if you have any questions. **
“We had to travel last minute for meetings and Jamie took care of our dog Puddles. She did an amazing job with him and her puppy Copper spent endless amount of time playing with Puddles. She also took Puddles to the dog park and he played in the yard. Endless amounts of fun and exercise. He was definitely worn out when he got home. A great sign that he had a very good time at Jamie’s. Highly recommended! ?”
“Kyle was amazing with Scout. From our meet and greet with him and Toffee through the entire stay, he was communicative, caring, and helpful. You can tell he loves dogs and I knew Scout was well taken care of. Highly recommend.”
About: I recently lost my puppy of 14 years, who was my world, so I decided to sign up to love on other dogs. I have volunteered at numerous shelters; taken training classes and first aid courses. I work from home part time, and am used to having a pup in-tow. I am almost always home and available, or outside carrying a leash. I am flexible and able to house sit and drop in. 5 min drive off I70 Exit 205 silverthorne. I know I just signed up, but am experienced and have plenty of time and space for your dog! You'll see 😁 I work from home, a few hrs per day. So that gives me a lot of flexibility and time for your pet. I am also available to house sit and do drop ins. I will provide a safe and caring home for your pup by offering daily exercise and playtime (and love), ensuring fresh food and water are always available, maintaining a clean and secure living environment, and seeking any veterinary care. I will also make sure your pet is comfortable and well loved, with plenty of attention and affection! 😊 I can send daily photos on request.
“Karen was an absolute lifesaver for us! We had friends visiting with their kids, and managing two dogs on top of everything would have been a lot, so having Bondi stay with her for a few days made all the difference. Karen kept us completely at ease by posting frequent updates and sharing lots of photos. From every picture, it was clear that Bondi was having the best time and getting so much love and attention. It really meant a lot to see how happy and comfortable he was while we were away. We’re so grateful for the care she gave Bondi and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring to look after their pup!”
About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities — from energetic adventure pups to seniors who need a slower pace and extra patience. I’m especially attentive to routine, behavior cues, and emotional well-being. I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe and comfortable, whether that’s sticking closely to their schedule, providing calm companionship, or getting them outside for structured exercise. I have experience with: Puppies (potty routines, basic manners, consistency) Senior dogs (gentle walks, medication reminders, extra monitoring) High-energy dogs who need both physical activity and mental stimulation Anxious or shy pets, using calm handling and positive reinforcement I’m reliable, communicative, and proactive — you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest check-ins so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I treat every animal as if they were my own, with patience, respect, and genuine care. What truly sets me apart is that I don’t rush care. Your pet gets real attention, not just a check-in — and your peace of mind is just as important to me as their happiness structure my days around the pets I’m caring for, making sure they get consistent attention, walks, meals, playtime, and companionship — not rushed drop-ins. I have the flexibility to: Provide morning, midday, and evening care Take dogs out for regular walks and outdoor time Be present for longer stays and extended companionship Adjust schedules to match your pet’s normal routine I’m mindful of maintaining consistency, especially for pets who thrive on structure or need extra reassurance while their humans are away. Whether it’s a quick check-in, a long walk, or overnight care, your pet is worked into my day as a priority — not an afterthought. I communicate clearly about availability and will always let you know ahead of time if anything changes. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable and routines stay consistent. I follow your instructions closely and treat your space with the same respect I would my own. In your home, I: Maintain your pet’s normal feeding, walking, and medication schedule Provide companionship, playtime, and calm presence (not just quick check-ins) Keep your pet’s environment clean, safe, and low-stress Watch for behavior or health changes and communicate proactively Send regular updates and photos so you feel connected while you’re away I’m attentive to details — from securing doors and gates to respecting house rules and routines. For overnight stays, I ensure pets have consistency, comfort, and reassurance throughout the day and night. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, relaxed, and cared for — and for you to have total peace of mind knowing both your pet and your home are in trustworthy hands.

“Jodi is the real deal when it comes to pet sitters. She was communicative from first contact, came over to meet our kitty pre-trip and made plenty of time to get know our needs. She let us know if any scheduling issues arose, but never missed a visit. I know for a fact she spoiled our girl rotten, even putting kitty tv on for her. I can’t say enough about how happy we are to have found her, and you will be too if you book her as a sitter!!”
“Tracy took excellent care of my senior cat including administering oral medication twice a day. She also kept me informed of my cat's well being as well as neighborhood moose sightings.”
“Eric is incredible. I can’t recommend him enough, he’s taken care of my elderly cat a few times now and he takes great care of my girl, making traveling a whole lot easier.”
“Sue was great! Awesome updates and let me kitties take their time to come out to get to know her. They seemed very relaxed and well taken care of in all the updates. Will be booking again!”
“Emily was absolutely wonderful! She was easy to work with, communicated regular updates and it was obvious she took great care of my cat while we were away. Will definitely book with Emily again!”
“Lexy was wonderful with my cat Bruce while we were out of town on a long trip. She is very responsive and a true cat lover. I will definitely seek her services again, she did a great job!”
“Jana is a gem. Even though Heavy D was out of sorts due to lots of recent commotion and disruption in his life she provided the absolute best service and we would highly recommend her!”
“Bethany was excellent. Available with short notice, fast response and great communication. Got daily pics and updates. I’m a nervous kitty mom and she made me feel reassured. Thanks Bethany and Rover!”
“Benjamin did a great job with the drop-ins for our two small dogs. He was always on time and our dogs seemed very happy to see him each time he came over to check on them.”
“I cannot praise Caitlyn enough. She goes above and beyond to make sure our kitty is taken care of. Her flight was greatly delayed on her first day of taking care of Rico, and she took care of him close to midnight! She's not only responsible but also very caring. When we arrived at home, it was very obvious he'd been well taken care of. Caitlyn is definitely my go to person for Rico.”

“Ken is a true caretaker of animals. He is very attentive to our dogs and cat and we always know they are in good hands. Our cat is diabetic and Ken has been amazing taking care of him with shots needed twice a day, etc.”
About: I've taken care of dogs from a 5-pound chihuahua to a 150-pound Bernedoodle and everything in between for the past 10+ years. I currently have a 3.5-year old Goldendoodle who is the light of my life - we run, play fetch, social with others, brighten people's days along the Blue River, local neighborhoods, or anyone else we feel like venturing for the day, and I have trained him from 8 weeks old (very sociable, playful, etc.). I am comfortable with all types, breeds, ages, etc. and I look forward to meeting your special 4-legged best friend! Toffee is around me 24/7, and I am extremely active competing in marathons and triathlons, so he keeps me busy and comes with me everywhere on the streets of Summit County (walking, running, playing, etc.). I am a strong believer that dogs make the world a better place, and since I already have a dog of my own, pet care is consistently part of my routine. My townhome is fully dog- and puppy-proof with all sharp objects safely stored and no food that is harmful to dogs (my dog can't eat peanut butter but if your's can, there's some of that too)! I will always have dog-friendly treats and will show nothing but love to all dogs in my house.
About: I have grown up with dogs since I was a kid including two golden retreievers! I have been living in the mountains since 2015 and I have been lucky enough to live with roommates that have had dogs and a few cats! I have taken care of pets all the way from a husky puppy to an older dog who needed special care including giving meds everyday! I currently work at Copper Mountain as a server so I am usually working from 10:30-3 or 3-9pm but can be flexible for the right situation! I prefer staying at the clients home or even stopping in to take care of your furry pets only because I am unable to have pets where I live. I unfortunately won't be able to give this service because I can’t have pets where I live but I am happy to go to yours!

About: I provide thoughtful, intuitive care for dogs of all personalities—whether they need outdoor adventure, calm companionship, or a little extra patience and understanding. Hi, I’m Cori — a professional, intuitive pet sitter recently relocated to Colorado from Chicago. In Chicago, I spent years deeply involved in dog rescue, rehabilitation, and fostering, along with providing boarding, daycare, house sitting, and in-home care. This hands-on experience gave me a strong foundation working with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and special needs—including anxious, reactive, and recovering pups who require extra patience and understanding. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely connect with. I have a natural ability to read behavior, build trust, and help pets feel safe and at ease in any environment. I offer a full range of services including dog walking, drop-in visits, daycare, boarding, and house sitting. Each visit is tailored to your pet’s unique needs and may include feeding, structured walks, playtime, enrichment, medication (if needed), and plenty of attention and care. Whether your dog prefers slow mornings and quiet companionship or thrives on outdoor adventures and long mountain walks, I meet them exactly where they are. Living in Colorado, I love providing active dogs with enriching exercise, while also maintaining a calm, grounded presence for those who need a gentler pace. As an added bonus, I also have extensive experience caring for small animals, including birds, guinea pigs, hamsters, and fish. I also hold a degree in horticulture, so I’m more than happy to care for houseplants while you’re away—keeping everything in your home healthy and thriving. Pet care is currently my full-time focus, which means I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate consistent, quality time and attention to each pet I care for. I’m reliable, communicative, and respectful of your routines, and I always provide regular updates with photos so you feel connected and at ease while you’re away. My goal is simple: to give you complete peace of mind. Your pets (and plants!) will be cared for with the same level of attention, safety, and genuine affection I would give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and becoming someone you can consistently count on. I’m a full-time pet care provider, so spending quality time with your pets is my top priority.

Because pet care is my full-time focus, your pets get dedicated attention, consistent care, and plenty of love every day. Regular updates and photos are included so you feel connected while you’re away. MY HOME: Your dog will be staying in a comfortable two-bedroom condo in Copper Mountain, where their safety, routine, and overall well-being are my top priorities. I aim to make your dog’s experience feel as close to home as possible. I consistently reinforce your preferred rules and routines—whether that means furniture privileges, feeding schedules, or specific boundaries—so your pup has a seamless and stress-free stay. Dogs are welcome on the sofa if that’s something you allow, and I always create a calm, respectful environment tailored to their needs and personality. Daily care includes multiple walks, enrichment, and plenty of attention. For more active dogs, I’m happy to incorporate longer walks or hikes in the surrounding area. For lower-energy or senior dogs, I provide a slower, more relaxed pace with lots of comfort and companionship. I use positive reinforcement techniques to support good behavior and build trust, as I’ve found this to be the most effective and compassionate approach—especially for dogs adjusting to a new environment. Above all, I work closely with you to follow your dog’s usual schedule and preferences, ensuring a happy, balanced, and personalized experience for everyone involved. YOUR HOME: When caring for your pets in your home, their safety, routine, and comfort are my top priorities.

“We booked this sitter last minute for a short, few-hour stay while we were in Breckenridge, and he was very quick to respond and easy to coordinate with. He also took our dog for a walk during the stay, which we really appreciated. Everything went smoothly, and it was a very convenient and stress-free experience for a same-day booking. We’d definitely book with him again when we’re in the area.”

About: Five years and running in Summit County. My love of animals is noticeable and after having spent many a day and weekend taking care of my friends and neighbors furbabies (including running with their dogs), I've decided to make dog/cat sitting a more permanent side hobby. As a pet owner myself (both cats and dogs), I understand how important a cat/dog sitter is to the wellbeing of both the owner and their pet(s). Therefore, I'll do all that I can to make sure I provide a fun, safe and positive experience for everyone. I am a consultant so my hours are somewhat flexible during the week and weekends. Let me know how I can help. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide dependable care and accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I am available for drop in visits, feeding, playtime, companionship, and overnight stays depending on the location. My priority is creating a safe calm and comfortable environment where pets can maintain their routine and feel secure. In a clients home I respect the pets established schedule and the owners preferences, including feeding routines, medications, exercise, playtime and household guidelines. I pay close attention to behavior and well-being and provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and cared for.
“Tracy was great with my Gemma! She was understanding of her specific needs and quirks. She came the day before for a meet and greet that really helped get a nice introduction for Gemma and eased my nerves as I am pretty new to rover. Will definitely be using Tracy again!”
“Eric is the absolute best! I can tell he really cares about my pup Rekker and my dog adores him. Eric always checks in with me, sending photos of Rekker and a screenshot of their walk outline, and has always been super flexible with my schedule. Definitely 10/10 recommend.”
About: I'm a caring and experienced pet caregiver who genuinely loves animals. I’ve also been a dedicated nurse for 10 years. I know how important it is to care for each unique pet and give them the love and attention they need. I've taken care of dogs with different needs, including health issues like seizures and anxiety, so I’m comfortable handling special situations and making sure your pet feels safe and cared for. The dates I list as available are days when I or my spouse are off from work and home 100%. As I work part-time as a nurse (2 days/week), I have plenty of time to play with your pups and give them the attention they need during our available days. My husband, Paul, and I are in our 30s and have lived in Silverthorne for the past 6 years. I’m a nurse, while he’s an environmental scientist.

My husband and I have both cared for pups in every stage of life. We are fully dedicated to providing your pet with the love and care they deserve. We live in a clean, pet-friendly, spacious 3-bedroom duplex (no roommates). Our shared yard is smaller, but the surrounding walkable areas have plenty of trails for outdoor adventures and exercise year-round — summer or winter! I currently have one dog of my own, who is older and very good with other pups. He’s a calm, friendly guy and will make your dogs feel at home with us. I am experienced in managing multiple pets and ensuring everyone feels safe and loved. As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and compassionate. I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. If you think I might be the right fit for your furry friend, I’d love to chat or set up a meet-and-greet!
“Sue is an excellent doggy care taker. In addition to taking our dogs out for much needed walks she also did a little bit of reinforcement training with them to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. We have very energetic dogs and Sue went above and beyond to take care of our home and our pups!”
About: Love borrowing my friends dogs for hikes! I do a lot of hiking alone, so it makes me feel a little bit safer to take a pup on a hike with me. Hikes are about an hour long.

I have watched cats, Small dogs, all the way up to an Alaskan Malamutes, she just passed away so I am looking for a new dog bff. I have taken care of dogs my whole life and have dog sat for different families for years so I am used to a variety of dogs and their different needs. I have a small, unfenced in patio/yard and a park across the street from home. I’m a busy bartender and server on the weekends, so weekdays I’m more available to help out more full time.

About: I recently lost my puppy of 14 years, who was my world, so I decided to sign up to love on other dogs. I have volunteered at numerous shelters; taken training classes and first aid courses. I work from home part time, and am used to having a pup in-tow. I am almost always home and available, or outside carrying a leash. I am flexible and able to house sit and drop in. 5 min drive off I70 Exit 205 silverthorne. I know I just signed up, but am experienced and have plenty of time and space for your dog! You'll see 😁 I work from home, a few hrs per day. So that gives me a lot of flexibility and time for your pet. I am also available to house sit and do drop ins. I will provide a safe and caring home for your pup by offering daily exercise and playtime (and love), ensuring fresh food and water are always available, maintaining a clean and secure living environment, and seeking any veterinary care. I will also make sure your pet is comfortable and well loved, with plenty of attention and affection! 😊 I can send daily photos on request.
“I would highly recommend Ken when you're looking for someone to take care of your critters. Ken definitely loves dogs as was apparent when he first met mine, and they took to him right away as well. I needed to find someone sooner than later and Ken was available within a couple of hours. 5 stars!”
“Emily is a great caretaker and my dog loves her! He gets so excited when he knows she's coming. She's great with communication and is super reliable. Most importantly, I always know my dog will always be safe when he's with her. Thanks for being so good to my pup, Emily! We appreciate you so much! :-)”
About: I’m the kind of person who always goes above and beyond. I love dogs because they’re always excited to greet new and old friends alike, and they’re the most loving creatures in the world. When it comes to pup-sitting, I always take the extra step. I really connect with them, so you’ll know you and your dog are getting the best service possible. Each and every dog is unique, and deserves to be treated as such! Taking care of dogs comes naturally to me. I have three big dogs of my own now. I grew up with dogs and have always had them in my life. I’m dependable and friendly, and I love getting outdoors with dogs in tow--I usually go hiking two or three times a week. Meeting new furry friends and doing something I love is the perfect combo. My doggos like Jack Carter Dog Park, and we spend lots of time there. I love to run around with them and make sure they're loving every moment of playtime! We also take plenty of long walks...and sneak in playtime whenever and wherever we get a chance. As a conscientious carer, I'll be in regular contact with you to let you know how things are going and get your input regarding any potential concerns. The last thing you want is surprises, so I'm always a step ahead, reading your dog’s body language and energy to keep them safe and happy. I also have experience caring for cats. I have two cats of my own, and love everything about them. I'm looking forward to hearing from you and meeting your furball!
About: I have experience with fosters, rescues, puppies, and the elderly dogs! I regularly take care of my mom’s 3 dogs and 4 cats, and I'm looking to take care of someone else's pup locally in Summit County. I can bathe, walk, feed, play with, and do so much more. In high school, I helped my mom foster dogs, so I understand the care and patience that goes into meeting any dog. I have a basic understanding of puppy training, and I am familiar with treat training. I am also very good with beagles :) I’m currently working part time, so I am very flexible. I work Tues Thurs Fri but am available after 6pm on those days. I travel periodically on the weekends but will make sure to keep my availability updated. Mondays and Wednesdays are typically very open for me! When in your home I will be respectful of boundaries. I understand that for a dog, having a stranger enter your home can be overwhelming and scary. I will create a calm and welcoming environment, keep water bowls filled, respect the owner's wishes about toys/treats/furniture, and I will monitor the pup at all times if let outside to a fenced yard. Same goes for walks. I will always proceed with caution, even if your dog isn’t reactive. I keep a proper grip on leashes to ensure your dog can’t slip away. And I also make sure that walks are catered to your dog’s need for enrichment. If your dog prefers to sniff the same spot for 10 minutes, I’ll respect that.
“Great experience! Bethany went above and beyond with our dog Kai (even let her pick out a bone at the local pet store!). She was quick to pick up on all the information we gave her and was great at communicating with us on how the walks went! It was a smooth process and we’d definitely book again!”
“We appreciated Kyle's courteous and friendly manner and how he engaged with Charlie to make him feel comfortable about walking with him. Charlie came back a happy dog with Kyle's care. Excellent communication.”
“Ashley helped me out on short notice and took great care of my dog. She was on time and provided lots of updates, which I really appreciate. I'd definitely use her services again.”
About: I am an experienced veterinary technician who loves all animals. I've been pet sitting on the side for twelve years now while working and going to school. I received my bachelor's in zoology from Colorado State University in 2018. I love what I do, and I can provide exceptional care for your fur babies. If they need special care (medications, treatment, etc.) I am able to provide that. I am also able to give baths and trim their nails if needed. I moved to Silverthorne one year ago, and would love to help care for your pets in my free time! I do work full twelve hour shifts Thursday, Friday and Saturday at an animal hospital, so I am unavailable those days, but I have full availability Sunday through Wednesday! I love playing fetch with dogs and being outdoors! Hiking is one of my favorite activities. I can absolutely also be a hermit and hang out indoors with the kitties or older dogs who aren’t up for being outside anymore.

“Our Pekingese Miso has major stranger danger and rarely warms up to people, but she absolutely loved Joan! We got daily updates from Joan, including multiple photos and videos per day of all of Miso’s awesome adventures! She was walked multiple times a day, well exercised and got to play a bunch both with Joan and her new doggy friends. She came home happy and tired. We look forward to using Joan again in the future!”
“Jenna took such good care of my dog, taking him on a great hike for the day I needed her to watch him (even with a short notice of needing her sitting help) Very happy and would recommend!”
“Absolutely amazing! Cori was so welcoming and kind to my dogs. It was my first time using Rover and Cori was beyond helpful. I dropped my dogs off with her to undergo a surgery in Denver and Cori was absolutely fantastic with communication and posted updates on how much fun the dogs were having. It was really a huge stress taken off my shoulder. Her place seemed perfect for active dogs like mine with a good trail very close by.”
About: Hi! I’m Stuss — a firefighter/paramedic and lifelong dog person based near Keystone/Dillon. Outside of work I volunteer at the Frisco Animal Shelter and with Summit Lost Pet Rescue, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of dogs: puppies, seniors, shy dogs, reactive dogs etc. I’ve also owned two dogs through their whole lives, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your best friend with someone else. My setup is simple: I only take one dog at a time (or two from the same household). That means your dog gets my full attention, a calm environment, and care that’s tailored to their routine — not a busy “pack” situation. I donate 20% of my earnings on Rover to the local animal shelter/rescue work I support. My work schedule is 48 hour shifts, and then I have a block of 4 days off. Some of those days I go on adventures, and some of those days I chill around the house. Those "rest days" are when I open my calendar up for dog sitting, so, your dog(s) will have my company all day while I'm at home doing chores, relaxing, and getting outside. I love to hike year round and I will take your dog with me, if they're up for it. I always match the day to your dog. Energetic dogs can join for longer walks/hikes, and seniors can take it slow with short strolls and extra couch time. I live in a ground-floor condo at the end of a quiet street with trails and open space nearby. With your permission, I also drive a few minutes to local trailheads for variety, and I kind of specialize in knowing quiet places to hike without the crowds. I live alone in a quiet, uncluttered home — great for dogs who do best in a calm space. Dogs are welcome on the couch and bed (unless you prefer otherwise). I stick closely to your dog’s normal routine: meals, meds, potty schedule, exercise, and any special instructions.
“Ben did an incredible job to help us out on pretty short notice for an 8 day watch of our 17 yr old small dog; he kept us up to date and is extremely pleasant and thoughtful man. His place is a dog’s heaven with lots of walking and out door space in heart of Keystone. Will most definitely use again in the future. Our “pup” almost did not want to leave when I came to pick her up. You can’t go wrong with Ben - he is Outstanding dog sitter !!!”
“Bridget is incredible! She took excellent care of my high energy dog and send lots of updates. Bridget was very accommodating and flexible with my flight delays. Highly recommend!!”
“Amanda was great! She responded quickly and was able to accommodate on short notice. She sent pictures and took Maggie on one of her favorite walks! I had a tired pup when I picked her up, which is always a guarantee that she had a good time. I will definitely be using Amanda again!”
“I can’t say enough about the wonderful experience we had with Tia and her family. First experience with Rover - and it was great. Our Rocky became a member of the family- took hikes - snuggled at night and when i picked him up - i could see he was well-loved. Thank you Tia!!”
About: I have taken care of a dogs and cats since the age of 10 years old. I love all animals equally and generally am the animal guru with any of my friends. I live in a small apartment in Denver and wish I could have an animal of my own here. So instead I would love to take care of yours. I’ve raised 3 puppies on my own - two Husky Wolf Hybrids and a German Husky Cattle Dog Mix. I am well trained on walking, feeding, energy and communication with the animals. I work from home Mon-Fri so my schedule is pretty lax and I am available to take care of your pets. Looking forward to mornings and evenings any day of the week. **Please note if my calendar appears to be blocked out on a day or period of time that you are looking to schedule. Please reach out to me and I will do my best to accommodate your request. I respond very quickly to all requests. Thank you. ** I plan creating a safe environment when taking care of your animal. Whether it be on a walk and being aware of my surroundings or in your home. The goal here is for your pet to feel as though they have not been left alone. Spending quality time with them is my utmost priority. **House Sitting Requests - please note that the majority of the time I will need to bring my pup with me to a house sitting request. He is well behaved, crate trained, and loves other dogs (he has zero aggression), and is neutered. There are a few occasions potentially with enough notice that I don’t need to bring him along but in the cases that I do I ask that your dog(s) are friendly and will enjoy having extra company ** ** Boarding Requests - in order for me to accept a boarding request the dog(s) must be dog and cat friendly. Typically a meet and greet would be required to make sure there are no issues. Please let me know if you have any questions. **
“We had to travel last minute for meetings and Jamie took care of our dog Puddles. She did an amazing job with him and her puppy Copper spent endless amount of time playing with Puddles. She also took Puddles to the dog park and he played in the yard. Endless amounts of fun and exercise. He was definitely worn out when he got home. A great sign that he had a very good time at Jamie’s. Highly recommended! ?”
“Kyle was amazing with Scout. From our meet and greet with him and Toffee through the entire stay, he was communicative, caring, and helpful. You can tell he loves dogs and I knew Scout was well taken care of. Highly recommend.”

“Karen was an absolute lifesaver for us! We had friends visiting with their kids, and managing two dogs on top of everything would have been a lot, so having Bondi stay with her for a few days made all the difference. Karen kept us completely at ease by posting frequent updates and sharing lots of photos. From every picture, it was clear that Bondi was having the best time and getting so much love and attention. It really meant a lot to see how happy and comfortable he was while we were away. We’re so grateful for the care she gave Bondi and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring to look after their pup!”
About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities — from energetic adventure pups to seniors who need a slower pace and extra patience. I’m especially attentive to routine, behavior cues, and emotional well-being. I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe and comfortable, whether that’s sticking closely to their schedule, providing calm companionship, or getting them outside for structured exercise. I have experience with: Puppies (potty routines, basic manners, consistency) Senior dogs (gentle walks, medication reminders, extra monitoring) High-energy dogs who need both physical activity and mental stimulation Anxious or shy pets, using calm handling and positive reinforcement I’m reliable, communicative, and proactive — you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest check-ins so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I treat every animal as if they were my own, with patience, respect, and genuine care. What truly sets me apart is that I don’t rush care. Your pet gets real attention, not just a check-in — and your peace of mind is just as important to me as their happiness structure my days around the pets I’m caring for, making sure they get consistent attention, walks, meals, playtime, and companionship — not rushed drop-ins. I have the flexibility to: Provide morning, midday, and evening care Take dogs out for regular walks and outdoor time Be present for longer stays and extended companionship Adjust schedules to match your pet’s normal routine I’m mindful of maintaining consistency, especially for pets who thrive on structure or need extra reassurance while their humans are away. Whether it’s a quick check-in, a long walk, or overnight care, your pet is worked into my day as a priority — not an afterthought. I communicate clearly about availability and will always let you know ahead of time if anything changes. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable and routines stay consistent. I follow your instructions closely and treat your space with the same respect I would my own. In your home, I: Maintain your pet’s normal feeding, walking, and medication schedule Provide companionship, playtime, and calm presence (not just quick check-ins) Keep your pet’s environment clean, safe, and low-stress Watch for behavior or health changes and communicate proactively Send regular updates and photos so you feel connected while you’re away I’m attentive to details — from securing doors and gates to respecting house rules and routines. For overnight stays, I ensure pets have consistency, comfort, and reassurance throughout the day and night. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, relaxed, and cared for — and for you to have total peace of mind knowing both your pet and your home are in trustworthy hands.
“Loryn was amazing with my pup! Not only did she go above and beyond with fun activities, and lots of pictures and videos, but she also was a huge help to my sons and me while we were visiting Copper Mountain. The trip would not have been the same without all the care and attention she gave to us all. Definitely hope to be lucky enough to be able to use her again anytime I’m in the area. Highly recommended!”
“Great and quick communication! Very trustworthy! You can tell they have a real passion for animals. I felt very comfortable leaving Ajax with Jana and Colten a second time. Always my first choice for any boarding needs!”
