“I can’t put into words how happy my fiancé and I were with Joan. Our dog is an introverted and shy girl, and Joan did an amazing job letting us know how she was doing our whole trip. Our pup had a blast in the expansive yard and getting to exercise and play with other dogs all day! Joan was sure to exercise her and keep her stimulated. We just got her back and she is resting from a fun and welcoming stay. Joan treated her like her own dog, and made us feel at ease our whole trip. We trust and will use her again! Thanks again Joan!”

“Emma was amazing with Curry! Her dogs even taught him how to howl 🥰 she included many photos and videos and Curry misses being there already, we can tell!! She will be our new go to sitter for him.”

“Our pup had a great time with Missy, Evan, Bill and Joey! They have watched copper multiple times, and she is now overjoyed to arrive at their place. Thanks for the peace of mind leaving our girl with you!”

“This was our 3rd stay with Nicole, Craig, and family. This stay was different for us in that we were out of the country for almost two weeks! I was certainly uneasy leaving my precious pups for so long, but I am so thankful and grateful for Nicole, Craig, and their boys. They treat our two Shiba Inus as party of the family, as if they were there own. Everything went swimmingly, which allowed my husband to really enjoy our vacation without having to worry about our pups. Thank you so much Nicole and Craig! We'll see you again soon!”

“Barbara was so sweet and kind to Leia. She let Leia explore her house and her yard (which Leia loves) and took care of her. Leia loved her time with Barbara and another dog Barbara was sitting. Barbara also constantly kept us updated with pictures. Leia had the best time in Colorado at Barbara's place.”

“Sehwa & Adam took care of my pup and I couldn’t be more grateful. They did a great always communication and sending me picture updates, I truly appreciate their kindness taking care of my dog. Thank you!!!”

“Sandy and Chase were great with taking care of Rio. Excellent communication provided lots of updates and plenty of photos. They live right next to a dog park, which is perfect. Our high-energy dog came back tired. Would definitely recommend.”


“Larissa was fantastic with our pup. She’s is an absolute dog lover and it shines through her words and actions. We’re very grateful for the way she loved on our dog, taking him on multiple walks and sending pictures of him cuddled up next to her. Would certainly use Larissa in the future.”

“Fred and Kim were so great with Nancy! This was my first time boarding her and they made her feel incredibly comfortable and welcome in a new space. They sent updates which I greatly appreciated as well.”

“Sue was absolutely wonderful with my 10-year old GSD. She was very flexible on arrival and pickup times, and never left her by herself alone. I’ll definitely be reaching back out.”

“Stephen and family were wonderful caretakers. My dog instantly felt comfortable with them. I greatly appreciated Stephen's communication, flexibility, and questions to better get to know Bodhi. Knowing my dog was in a great place where he was being cared for and loved helped me enjoy my vacation even more. Thanks for a wonderful experience! Will definitely use again!”

“Allie and Jason are my go to Rovers!! This was Annie’s 3rd or 4th stay with them and the care received was great as usual! This time Annie had a small nail injury which occurred the night before drop off and Allie adapted Annie’s care routine as needed and sent frequent updates. Allie was also super attentive to Annie’s bathroom schedule and let me know when Annie missed an expected BM (TMI). Allie also kept Annie safe during the heatwave, making sure to walk her early or skip the walk when necessary. Annie also adores their dog, Amy and my favorite part of her stays are receiving pictures of them snuggled up together on the couch.”

“This was our dog’s first time staying with Melinda and we will definitely be booking with her in the future. She was easy to communicate with, sent picture updates, and our dog was happy and well-cared for.”

“Aubrey is amazing and very helpful. Fen is very enthusiastic to be around her and her pets. She has a fenced yard and plenty of room for dogs to run around and play. She was able to pick Fen up and drop him off. I am also rebooking her over Christmas!”
“Eric & Kim are wonderful! Such great communicators, and sent lots of photos and videos. I felt safe leaving my pup with them for a whole week while out of the country. 10/10 recommend!”

“Our pup seemed to have a good time with Steve and Susan. He seemed calmer and more relaxed than he has with other places, which means the world to me. Thanks for taking such good care of him. We'll be back!”


About: I’ve taken care of large/,medium & small dogs since I was 20. Neighbors, friends and family relied on me to groom, walk, feed & bath their pets, and I can do it for you. As I’m retired with plenty of time to care for your dog, and take it on walks, if you choose.. I do have a cat so your pet needs to be cat-friendly. I’m available for boarding/drop-off after 2 p.m., on weekdays & weekends, unless other arrangements made in advance. I am retired, and have plenty of time to care for your pet(s). I have a fenced yard, a large, covered, enclosed deck for lounging in open-air, 2 friendly small dogs, and a cat. Also live in fairly large house with my grandson who is 4 yrs. old (must get along w/child, small dogs & cat).. I can walk your dog if arrangements made in advance (for additional fee.) I crate my dogs at night, and prefer you provide a crate for your dog(s), as well.
“This was Rocco's first stay with Paul & Delia. He adapted well and was very comfortable in their home. When I picked him up he was very happy to see me but I could tell he was well cared for and content. I received pictures while he stayed with them which was very nice to see he was enjoying himself. An added benefit to me is they live in my neighborhood which makes them very convenient. I will definitely use them again!”

“Robyn was great, will definitely rebook in the future. She came for an initial meet and greet, and her level of communication during the engagement was great. She followed the feeding instructions to a tee and made sure our cat had food and water served in clean dishes. She also made sure to lock up our windows and doors securely after every visit. Thank you Robyn!!”

If you have an animal that needs to burn off energy, I will do my best to do so wether it’s a hike, playing fetch or something else!

“It was easy to setup care for Meow with Danielle. She was also very easy to talk to and made sure Meow was well taken care of while we were away. She kept us updated and reached out if she had any questions. Thank you, Danielle!”


About: I cared for my own beloved cat Buddy for 17 years giving me first hand experience with every stage of a cat’s life. From active adult years to the unique needs of a senior cat. I learned the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding that every cat has their own personality and comfort level. I am comfortable caring for cats with different temperaments, including shy, independent, and senior cats. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, providing companionship on the cat’s terms, and paying attention to changes in behavior appetite and well being. As a sitter my goal is to help cats feel safe, comfortable and cared for while giving their owners peace of mind. I treat every cat as if it were my own and provide regular updates so you can relax while you’re away.
“Absolutely amazing! I would recommend Becky to anyone looking for a Petsitter. She did a wonderful job watching my cats and reptiles while I was away for the holiday. She was available on short notice, her prices cannot be beat, and most of all she went above and beyond to provide my animals with the highest level of care. I will be rebooking her again!”


About: I love dogs and have experience caring for all ages and breeds, including my own lab/pit rescue. I'm reliable, organized, and detail-oriented, ensuring your dog's safety and happiness. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! I currently work part time as a manager at a small business and only need to be in the office when I have clients. Therefore, I have lots of time to care for your pet! I currently am not taking boardings as my home is not suitable at this time but I will take all precautions when caring for your pup in your home or in walks.
“Kimberly is very attentive and responsive. She was willing to meet me beforehand on short notice. She is very thorough in her stays and makes sure to keep you up to date even when the app is lagging. She is super friendly and you can tell she really enjoys meeting new pets! I would definitely rebook with Kimberly!”

“We have been traveling for a week and changing plans due to the lack of snow so we made a very last minute request and Emma was super flexible and communicative. She took great care of Minnie! Minnie can be anxious when away from home but was much calmer than usual when we picked her up. When Minnie needed space from Emma’s playful dogs, Emma gave Minnie her own space in the house. We got updates and photos during the day too. We highly recommend Emma and would use her again if we’re traveling in this area again.”


About: Hi! I’m semi- retired, flexible and here to help! I am an experienced and dedicated dog owner with over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of various breeds, ages, sizes, and temperaments. Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them isn’t just something I do — it’s something I truly love. I have extensive experience with both large and small breeds, including strong, high-energy dogs and those who need a little extra patience and understanding. I’m confident handling everything from tiny companions to powerful working breeds, and I’m comfortable managing leash manners, reactivity, and high-drive personalities. Over the years, I’ve also worked alongside several professional trainers to develop improve upon training techniques and deepen my understanding of canine behavior. This has given me strong skills in structure, positive reinforcement, consistency, and reading body language — ensuring every dog in my care feels safe, understood, and supported. I currently have two dogs of my own who keep me on my toes! One required daily medication and eye drops for most of her life and is now blind, so I’m very experienced with administering medication, caring for special needs dogs, and providing the extra patience and environmental awareness they require. My other is a 90lb Rottweiler — a big, strong, lovable goofball — so I’m more than comfortable handling large, powerful breeds with confidence and control. Whether your dog needs structured walks, medication management, extra patience, or just lots of love and play, I provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care tailored to their individual needs. I treat every dog as if they were my own and prioritize safety, routine, and plenty of affection. I’d love to meet your pup and provide them with a fun, safe, and caring experience! I’m currently semi retired so have flexibility to adapt to your dogs needs, routine and playtime! I love going for walks, helping with training, providing mental stimulation as well as exercise. My dogs are pretty “spoiled” according to my friends; they eat (home prepared meals) 3 times a day (not including treats) and get tons of attention. I’m happy to provide the same level of love, attentiveness and care to any and every dog I possibly can. 💜 I have a small fenced in yard and a comfortable cozy home. I do have two dogs but have the ability to keep mine separate if needed. If requesting home sitting services, I have done the same and fully understand the level of of trust, cleanliness and respect needed in these situations.

“Robyn was great. She was reliable, great with communication and took my dog for a long walk which I appreciated. I received many photo updates on how my dog was doing. It was fun to see him interacting with Robyn's dogs. I would use her services again when in the area.”

“Sandy was great and very accomodating for a last minute daycare stay for Bulleit. He seemed very well taken care of and I love the fact they have a large park across the street! Would definitely recommend Sandy and will use in the future! Thanks again!!”

“Judson and his family are great! Their house with the big fenced land is very peaceful and beautiful . My two huskies had the best time running and playing all day. They also went on hike. Thank you for taking care of our babies. Very happy to find them.”

About: Former dog training/daycare worker. I am a remote worker, so I can be with your pups most usually all day. I’m a photographer by trade, so I usually take photos during our visit for fun ☺️ For boarding, I live on a fenced farm and we spend time outside, as well as being cozy inside while I remote work. I work from my laptop, so I am very flexible during the day. I am fully available and very eager to spend time with your dog. I make sure your dog is my number one priority. I could never be too cautious. I make sure they have the attention, pets, and play time that they need.
“Shanik and family are wonderful pet hosts. Mila loved to spend the days with them. She was happy to play ball outside in the snow for her first time. Shanik took care of Mila while my family and I were out skiing. Mila felt like she was home! Thank you!”

About: I have years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals in addition to dogs including cats, fish, guinea pigs, etc. Patient, flexible, reliable. I provide care for pets of all ages. Prior pet store experience. I have two dogs and two freshwater fish tanks. Please feel free to call or text with questions. I look forward to working with you! I work part time and can easily fit your pet care needs into my schedule. I've been helping take care of other family's pets for many years and I make your pet my priority. I have a fenced in yard in a safe neighborhood for pet boarding. When pet sitting at another home I take great care to make sure that pets are secure and accounted for, all doors are locked and all safety precautions taken to ensure the best service for your pet and family.
About: I love big dogs, especially GSDs, but have experience with many ages, breeds, and sizes. I grew up with several labs. The last 10 years I raised a German Shepherd from 8 weeks that sadly passed away last summer. Needless to say I miss being covered in dog hair. I have experience with various personalities, separation anxiety, cuts/injuries, and administering medication. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, hikes, and going to parks, but can also just hang out with your pup if that’s what’s desired. I work remote full time and set my own schedule, allowing flexibility all hours and days. I live in a home with plenty of room and a fenced in backyard. Trails are 20 yards away. Reach out if you’d like to set up a meet and greet! I work remotely and make my own schedule, so I’m flexible at all hours and days to provide the care that your dog needs and deserves. Dogs are always welcome in my home! I have plenty of space with a fenced in yard and dogs are allowed on the couch and in the bed. I’m easy to work with, patient (some dogs just like to sniff more than they walk), communicative, and can adjust to any preferred care strategy to provide a trustworthy service while you’re away.
“Omar was fantastic with our little Peanut. He got plenty of play time and care. Omar has a good sized fenced yard and took Peanut on a joyful walk. He was tired but happy when he got home. What more can we ask for?! Thanks again, Omar!”

“Cherie watched Paisley for half a day while we were snowmobiling, and she was truly a dog whisperer. She kept us updated with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. Paisley usually won’t even leave her crate the first time with a new sitter, but with Cherie she felt comfortable enough to go out right away. Cherie even accommodated us by driving Paisley back to our Airbnb. Communication was excellent throughout. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely book her again.”


About: I am an animal lover that works from home, so I will always be around. I'm just looking to help you care for your pets while you are away. No complicated stuff or pricey add-ons here! About me - my husband and I have owned two beautiful Vizslas over the last 17 years and recently lost our 2nd one. I love animals, have plenty of experience caring for high energy and senior dogs (we cared for our dogs with arthritis, Cushing's Disease, muscle atrophy). I love walking, hiking and spending time with animals. I have a large 1 acre property and spacious home. No other pets, just me and my husband. I am perfectly happy caring for one pet at a time if you prefer your pet to be the only pet with me. I have also cared for friends' pets for a long time as well but am adding my services here to the Rover community. Thank you! I work from home full time, so I have a lot of flexibility. I am able to take breaks often during the day for potty breaks and walks. I am home almost everyday, but I do go out on weekends for a few hours at a time. I can bring your pet along on hikes and picnics if your pet is able to join. I prefer pets that can be left at home for at least 3-4 hours at a time and unattended. If not, we can discuss. Crates may be needed if they are unable to roam around the house alone. I have a large property, but it is unfenced, it is far from the road and our area is very very quiet, almost zero cars. I can keep your pet on a leash for potty breaks if they are prone to running away. My house is spacious and has two floors with just the two of us and no other pets. The stairs and floors are covered in non-slip rugs for pets. There is a baby gate to keep your pet away from stairs if needed. There are extra rugs for the floors if needed (our senior dogs used to slip a lot). I also have a large deck that is fully enclosed - no exit route. Since I am home almost all the time, I can take your pet for a walk and let them keep me company at home on the couch too! I can also come over your home and care for your pet there as needed (depends on length of stay requested).
“Christina was fantastic. Our family was looking for someone to watch our pup while doing an excursion in Colorado. She was very prompt in getting back with me, and our pup had a great time.”

About: Hi, I’m Allie! I’ve been an animal lover and caregiver since I was 8 years old. I’ve loved and cared for horses, dogs, and cats throughout my life and would love to care for your furbabies like they’re my own. I share a cabin with my husband and two goofy Labradors, Jenny and Elwood. We have a half-acre, fenced in yard with plenty of room to play and roam. And the squirrel hunting is top-notch. 🐿️ 🐶 There’s plenty of dog-friendly furniture for naps, and walks and snuggles are guaranteed. 💕 We welcome friendly, non-aggressive dogs to join us for boarding and doggie daycare. A human will be home during your pup’s entire visit. If your pup prefers their own space, I’m happy to spend the day and night with them so they can keep to their familiar space and routines. 🏡🛌 If your pup loves exercise, they’re in luck - I am an avid hiker and runner who can keep up with even the most energetic of pooches. 🏃🏾♀️🥾 If you’re running errands down the hill and won’t be home for a while, I’m happy to check in on your pup and give them a little TLC and a walk. Depending on my schedule, I can accommodate last-minute requests, just give me a shout. As a dog mama myself, I know how hard it can be to be away from your furbabies. I’m happy to provide regular updates and share pics, to make you feel closer to home. 📸💕 If your pup has special needs or requirements, please let me know ahead of time and I can let you know if I’m able to accommodate. Additionally, I am an energy healer and training to be an animal communicator. If you’re down with all things “woo woo,” I’d be delighted to give your pup an energy boost and pass along a message or two. 🔮💫 I’m a writer who is training to be an animal communicator. That means this is my full-time gig! Your pups will be my top priority. I have a fenced-in yard for boarding visitors and flexibility in my schedule to spend the full day with your pup on house sitting visits.
“Jen was great with Joshua! She sent updates throughout the day and was very accommodating with my drop off and pick up times. My dog seems very happy after his visit there. Also very convenient location for a ski day when coming from Denver area.”

About: I grew up with cats and now am a very proud blue heeler-boco mix owner. I am always happier if there is an animal in the room :) I love caring for, learning about, and working with all animals. I look forward to learning about what makes your pet special and unique. As I’m a teacher off for the summer, so have a flexible schedule to be able to help out with pet care. Hanging out with some new pet friends pets is always a great day! We live in Central City, so comfortable with mountain properties. I understand my job as learning your pet’s routine in order to offer as much consistency (and love/enrichment in your absence) as possible. I am here to respect your rules, expectations, and “how it’s done” when it comes to caring for your pet in your home.
About: I have three dogs of my own two of those being high energy. Additionally I spent some time in the veterinary field. My brother has had me dog sit for him on several occasions. I’m currently working extremely part time so I am available most mornings and afternoons. I am available most weekends as well and sometimes for overnight sits. I will take care of your fur babies as if they were my own. I love being outdoors so several walks per day is no issue.
About: I have been taking care of a large variety of dogs for 20 years. From eight weeks old to 16 years old, from pugs to chows and pitbulls to 140 pound malamutes I have cared for them all. I can come by to walk and feed your best friends once a day or stay and cook them meals as per your request. I want to make sure you and your loved ones are as comfortable as possible while you are away. I do freelance work so I have pretty open availability. Making sure you're needs are met so you are comfortable is my top priority. If for some reason I can't meet all of your needs I will tell you before committing to something that doesn't fit my schedule or abilities. I am here for you. How I care for your pets and home is mostly dependent on your requests. I give medicine, food and exercise as requested. I can simply fill a food bowl, measure servings and even cook protein and veggies for your dogs if that is what you want. I am happy to keep you updated or send you pictures if you'd like. Walks are as far/long/plentiful as requested. I want to provide you with the comfort of knowing someone is there to care for your loved one as you would while you are away.

About: I've been an animal lover my entire life. Ever since I was a little girl I would bring home injured or stray animals to care for. I've raised an assortment of pets from parakeets, cats, fish, bunnies, chickens, ducks, and many dogs. Our dogs are like our children to us. It's our goal to provide the very best life we could possibly give them with lots of love, structure, exercise, a good healthy diet, and medical attention when required. Any animal that comes in our presence will experience the same treatment. I work full-time remotely. While we don't have a yard per se, we live in the mountains bumped up against BLM land with lots of hiking trails and areas to walk. Our dogs get exercised daily on the trails surrounding our home. With my at-home work schedule, I have the flexibility to take walks for my breaks and lunch hour and to get up and take care of things as needed through out the day. We get up early and go outside immediately so our dogs can relieve themselves then we go in and have breakfast. After breakfast, I start work while the dogs tend to relax on the bed behind me. I will take them out to potty again on my first break then on my lunch hour, we go for a walk through the forest behind the house. They get another potty break on my second break and then another short walk after I sign out of work for the day in the evening time. We free-feed our dogs but if we have other dogs in the house we will adjust the feeding and schedule to the visiting dog(s). We are normally in bed around 10 pm and our dogs are fully on our schedule for sleeping. If we need to step out for a bit, our dogs are good being left alone in the house but we do have a crate if needed for dogs that aren't good being left alone.
“Erin was absolutely fantastic with Ollie. She took him on long walks, and was patient with him, spending extra time with him waiting for him to go potty. I’ll definitely be using Erin again in the future!”

About: Hi there, my name is Emma! I'm a part-time pet care professional with over five year of experience working in dog daycare and boarding services. Whether your dog needs playtime, structured walks, or just some loving company while you're away, I provide a safe environment tailored each pup's personality and needs. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and special requirements (including medications and injections), and have worked with senior dogs to high-energy breeds. My goal is always to keep your furry friend happy, healthy, and loved while you're away. I work from home full-time and am available all week even during working hours. If there is a conflict, I will let you know in advance. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. In your home, I keep things consistent: following feeding schedules, walk routines, playtime, and any training or behavioral guidelines you have in place. I also make sure your pet gets plenty of companionship, enrichment, and a calm, safe environment while you’re away.

“Mitch has done a great job working with us. He's easy to communicate with, responsible, and gave our dogs lots of attention. We appreciate him greatly and will likely book him again to walk our dogs. I would recommend Mitch to others in the area.”

About: Hi! I’m Josie. First thing to know about me- My love for dogs and cats is beyond. One thing that consistently makes my day is spoiling animals. I enjoy staying fit so running, jogging or hiking with dogs is even better - it keeps me going! I Have 10 years experience in pet sitting, dog walking, and training, as well as working in boarding/daycare facilities. I always look forward to building a trusting relationship and continuing care for your fury family member(s) whenever you may need it. I prefer interviewing before hand so I can get to know you and your pet(s), and, of course, so that you feel can comfortable with me. I am very flexible with my schedule and reliable all around. Love for your pets will always be a top priority of mine- that’s a given. This is something that excites me, as animal rights/connection is one of my greatest (if not the greatest) passions. Please contact me and you can expect a quick reply! Pet care will be and always is my first priority. Besides this, I’m currently working a separate very part-time job and in college online until the end of summer- I am very open and available as of now. No matter the location, I care for all animals the same. As far as what I can do for your family (as of now), I am available to come care for your pets at your home, where I’ll follow any instructions and precautions you provide just as I would my own. I am available to come take your baby(babies) on walks when you may need, feedings, or just some love in your absence, of course!!

About: I am a certified, professional canine obedience trainer and have two fur babies who are my world and they have taught me that there is no greater gift than that of an animal who trusts you to be the best you that you can be in every aspect of your life. Without balance, there can be no peace. I am an avid and experienced sitter who is dedicated to delivering the utmost quality of care to all clients, furry and human alike. I have pet sat for many family members and family friends as well as a number of Rover and private clients. I require meet and greets so that I can answer any questions and or demonstrate my services as well as discuss what may need to be done before, during and after care provided as well as any extracurricular services such as plant care, garbage removal, mail collection and light housework depending on the length of the stay. All is doable so you can be confident that I am the right choice for you, your beloved family members and your home. My schedule includes but isn't limited to the hours of 6PM-7AM as I work outside and all across Denver. So rainy days will most definitely be spent lounging around with your furry family. Some days I may have other obligations however checking in with you and ensuring every furry companion is set and settled while you're away is my top priority. As an individual house sitter who works with both animals and people, it's important to understand that animals can pick up on how they and their environment are being treated just as people can. It is important to always be aware of how everyone (animals too!) expect themselves and their homes to be respected so I take great care in learning everyone individually. As a canine trainer, my aim is to respect the training regiment/schedule and expectations laid out to help our companions live their best life.

“I can’t put into words how happy my fiancé and I were with Joan. Our dog is an introverted and shy girl, and Joan did an amazing job letting us know how she was doing our whole trip. Our pup had a blast in the expansive yard and getting to exercise and play with other dogs all day! Joan was sure to exercise her and keep her stimulated. We just got her back and she is resting from a fun and welcoming stay. Joan treated her like her own dog, and made us feel at ease our whole trip. We trust and will use her again! Thanks again Joan!”

“Emma was amazing with Curry! Her dogs even taught him how to howl 🥰 she included many photos and videos and Curry misses being there already, we can tell!! She will be our new go to sitter for him.”

“Our pup had a great time with Missy, Evan, Bill and Joey! They have watched copper multiple times, and she is now overjoyed to arrive at their place. Thanks for the peace of mind leaving our girl with you!”

“Barbara was so sweet and kind to Leia. She let Leia explore her house and her yard (which Leia loves) and took care of her. Leia loved her time with Barbara and another dog Barbara was sitting. Barbara also constantly kept us updated with pictures. Leia had the best time in Colorado at Barbara's place.”

“Sandy and Chase were great with taking care of Rio. Excellent communication provided lots of updates and plenty of photos. They live right next to a dog park, which is perfect. Our high-energy dog came back tired. Would definitely recommend.”


“Larissa was fantastic with our pup. She’s is an absolute dog lover and it shines through her words and actions. We’re very grateful for the way she loved on our dog, taking him on multiple walks and sending pictures of him cuddled up next to her. Would certainly use Larissa in the future.”

“Fred and Kim were so great with Nancy! This was my first time boarding her and they made her feel incredibly comfortable and welcome in a new space. They sent updates which I greatly appreciated as well.”

“Sue was absolutely wonderful with my 10-year old GSD. She was very flexible on arrival and pickup times, and never left her by herself alone. I’ll definitely be reaching back out.”

“Stephen and family were wonderful caretakers. My dog instantly felt comfortable with them. I greatly appreciated Stephen's communication, flexibility, and questions to better get to know Bodhi. Knowing my dog was in a great place where he was being cared for and loved helped me enjoy my vacation even more. Thanks for a wonderful experience! Will definitely use again!”

“Allie and Jason are my go to Rovers!! This was Annie’s 3rd or 4th stay with them and the care received was great as usual! This time Annie had a small nail injury which occurred the night before drop off and Allie adapted Annie’s care routine as needed and sent frequent updates. Allie was also super attentive to Annie’s bathroom schedule and let me know when Annie missed an expected BM (TMI). Allie also kept Annie safe during the heatwave, making sure to walk her early or skip the walk when necessary. Annie also adores their dog, Amy and my favorite part of her stays are receiving pictures of them snuggled up together on the couch.”

“This was our dog’s first time staying with Melinda and we will definitely be booking with her in the future. She was easy to communicate with, sent picture updates, and our dog was happy and well-cared for.”

“Aubrey is amazing and very helpful. Fen is very enthusiastic to be around her and her pets. She has a fenced yard and plenty of room for dogs to run around and play. She was able to pick Fen up and drop him off. I am also rebooking her over Christmas!”
“Our pup seemed to have a good time with Steve and Susan. He seemed calmer and more relaxed than he has with other places, which means the world to me. Thanks for taking such good care of him. We'll be back!”

“This was Rocco's first stay with Paul & Delia. He adapted well and was very comfortable in their home. When I picked him up he was very happy to see me but I could tell he was well cared for and content. I received pictures while he stayed with them which was very nice to see he was enjoying himself. An added benefit to me is they live in my neighborhood which makes them very convenient. I will definitely use them again!”

“Jenn was fantastic. She was able to get my pups in at the last minute after other accommodations fell through. I was nervous using Rover because I'd had bad experiences with a pet sitter a number of years ago, but Jenn put me right at ease. The dogs warmed to her very quickly and got plenty of exercise. She sent lots of photos, took great care of the dogs, and made my trip much less stressful. I would definitely recommend Jenn for your pet-sitting needs in the Conifer area. I will be using her services again with full confidence.”

“My senior standard poodle did so well in Jamie's home! I was worried as she hadn't been boarded for several years and is a bit standoffish. But I could tell from the pictures and feedback provided by Jamie that Chloe was very content, so I didn't worry one bit during my trip. I love the peace of mind knowing my girl is well cared for by Jamie and her family. Will be using Jamie again for sure.”
“Emily is awesome. We've had our dog with her twice and he loves going there. He's made buddies with her sweet dog, Lemon, and Emily takes such great care of him. I am so comfortable leaving Marty with her and Hector!”
