“We loved having our chihuahua Bertie stay with Maggie! She was flexible when we had to drop off early and pick up late, and she was good about communicating with us while we were away. Bertie seemed to get along well with her elderly small dog, and he seemed very comfortable with her when we came to pick him up. We will definitely try to book with Maggie in the future.”
“Our dog Allie had a wonderful time and was very comfortable for her first overnight stay. They were extremely responsive and kept us updated with pics! Will absolutely be using your services again!”
“Our dog had a wonderful time at Aubrey’s house. He had lots of furry friends to play with, spent time exploring outside and received many cuddles and love. Aubrey was wonderful at sending daily updates and pictures. Our pup came back exhausted from all the fun he had. Can’t wait to use Aubrey again next time we are away!”
“Georgia took great care of Zia! She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. She handled Zia's special diet and medications with ease and was very attentive to all her needs. Highly recommend!”
“My dog had a great time with Madeline. Madeline took her for lots of walks, and she handled my dog's anxiety/reactivity wonderfully. Will definitely be booking her again!”
“Shanik was a really great host for my dog, Violet. She was warm and welcoming, clearly loves dogs, and her 2 dogs were great companions for Violet during her stay. She had never stayed in another family's home before, and Shanik make it easy. She also sent lots of pictures each day I was away and gave regular updates so it was clear that Violet was having a great time.”
“Addison was so accommodating, easy to communicate with and sweet with my dog! She sent updates and pictures, and took great care of her. Highly recommend and hope to book with her again in the future :)”
“This was my first Rover experience so I was a little nervous to leave Indie with someone new (admittedly, I'm a rather needy pet parent - oops! :) ) Della was so thorough in explanation her daily routine with doggie visitors during our meet and greet a local park. Indie is a pretty shy with new people, and Della completely respected Indie's pace to earn her trust. Della has a radiantly warm and positive energy. Her calm confidence and compassion helped put both Indie and me at ease for her first overnight sleepover party. I received plenty of photos of Indie joyfully leaping around the park with the other doggie guests - and very prompt responses - which I so appreciate. Della somehow even captured a photo Indie with her floppy ears completely airborne as she ran around with other dogs - which made me laugh and is now my phone wallpaper. When I went to pick her up the next morning, her sweet daughter Uma parted with her with plenty of hugs and kisses. What a sweet family Indie is lucky to reside with when I'm out of town. We're lucky to have found Della & Uma!”
“My older dog Santo did well with Jacqueline's gentle care. She understood his limitations, especially regarding heat. He had plenty of toys, and was able to play with her well behaved dogs. Jacqueline runs a tight ship, which I appreciate.”
“This was my second time using Tigran. I felt like the pups were very well taken care of and loved. He sent me videos every day. Great communicator and flexible with drop off and pick up times. Highly recommend.”
“Emily was absolutely amazing with Zola! I got a lot of photo updates and reassurance that she was well taken care of while I was away! I will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her. Zola came home in a very good mood.”
“We weren’t able to book our normal sitter for our dog reactive pup and thought we’d have to miss a family trip until we met with Chris. Chris met with us and our pup a couple times very close to the date of the trip a to make sure our dog was comfortable in the new environment with new person. Once it seemed like he was, we talked through our dogs reactivity with Chris who was very attentive and understanding. He even went out of his way to let his neighbor (who has a dog) know he’d have a reactive pup there which was very thoughtful. During the trip, Chris gave us great updates and we felt good knowing he was in good hands. If we need a sitter again for any period of time, Chris will definitely be top of mind. Thanks Chris!”
“Elise sent plenty of pictures and took excellent care of my dog. Would highly recommend her, and plan on using her rover services again in the future!”
“Jessica and Sophie were wonderful watching our pup! We were sent many pictures and our dog had a great time playing with Sophie. He was well cared for and is now exhausted. Highly recommend!”
“My dog did great with Delane and her family while we were gone for over two weeks. Delane kept in great touch with photos and my dog got to enjoy the fenced in back yard and some other dog friends. He had a great stay!”
“Katherine & Andrew were so great and I hope to hire them again. They took my dog on a bunch of adventures and took great care of her. Lots of great pictures and communication throughout the week. They also picked her up and dropped her off, which was a big help. I’ll definitely be recommending them to my neighbors and friends nearby.”
“This was the second time Curtis and his wife took care of our dog, Bono, and once again they were amazing. They treated him like their own and gave us complete peace of mind over the holidays. We came back to a happy, relaxed dog. We’re incredibly grateful and would absolutely trust them again.”
“Sophia was great!! Helped us out by taking care of our pup jojo on our wedding night. We knew he was in great hands and could let loose without any stress. Will definitely book with her again. Her dog Ziggy is a sweetheart and got along with ours great :)”
“Chelsea was so wonderful with our puppy while we were away! She made sure he got out and about and was great and communicating throughout his stay. Highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have helped care for them from when they were puppies through adulthood. Over the years, I’ve helped with daily walks, feeding, playtime, training reinforcement, and making sure they get plenty of attention and exercise. I’ve also helped care for dogs belonging to family members, which has given me experience with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. Growing up with dogs has taught me how important patience, consistency, and understanding each dog’s unique personality is when caring for them. I’m currently a graduate student doing research, which gives me a fairly flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate walks throughout the week. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so fitting dog walks into my daily routine comes naturally. Whether your dog needs a quick walk, regular exercise, or some extra attention during the day, I’ll work to provide reliable and consistent care. When caring for pets, my priority is always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I understand every dog has different personalities, energy levels, and routines, so I try to adapt to what works best for them. Whether in your home or out on walks, I focus on keeping pets safe, giving them plenty of attention, and following any instructions or routines you provide to ensure consistency and trust.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with dogs, having grown up with them since birth. I’ve also frequently pet-sat for neighbors and friends, handling everything from walks to feeding and cleaning up. I love dogs so much and walk a lot every day and I would love to have a dog to walk as well! I am a senior at San Diego State and am a full-time student but I only go to campus Monday Wednesday and Friday! I have lots of free time in the mornings and late afternoons! When caring for a dog in a client's home, I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment. I maintain a routine that the dog is familiar with, ensuring their surroundings feel secure and stress-free. I follow any specific care instructions provided by the owner, keeping their home clean and the pet well-fed, exercised, and content. My goal is to create a great experience for both the dog and their owner, providing peace of mind that their pet is in good hands.

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and gentle attention. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, reinforcing training routines, and providing plenty of exercise and enrichment. I am a college student, but am great about scheduling drop-ins, or walks in between classes as needed. I am also available for extended overnight stays! I prioritize clear communication and reliability, so you can count on me to show up consistently and on time. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In your home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, routines, and house rules to maintain consistency. I double-check doors, leashes, and gates to ensure security at all times. I also provide updates and photos so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. I aim to create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe and cared for.
“Samantha was professional, friendly and personable. She took extra great care of my pets!! I felt very at ease leaving her in charge. She went above and beyond. She took pics and sent a note everyday as well. I appreciate having had met such a caring sitter through Rover and will definitely contact again if she is available!”
About: I have experience caring for cats of all ages and temperaments, including administering medications and caring for a diabetic cat that required insulin injections. I cared for 2 cats for a whole summer, I have provided drop-in visits, feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and overnight care, and I understand the importance of maintaining a cat’s routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while their owners are away. I treat every cat as if they were my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and affection.
“Angela came to housesit for us last minute when a hurricane disrupted our travel plans. Despite a late night conversation and very few details (we were desperately stranded at an airport) she came early the next morning to take care of our cat Tupelo for two nights, and was wonderfully communicative the whole time. Thank you, Angela!”
“I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Leandra! She was professional, responsive, and clearly passionate about animals. She followed all the instructions I provided and I received regular updates including text messages and photos which really put my mind at ease. When I returned home, my cat seemed happy, healthy, and well cared for — and my home was just as I left it. I will definitely hire Leandra again in the future!”

“Nicholas was great quick and easy to communicate with. He took our dog Shaka on all his errands for the day (mostly indoors because it was super cold) and hung out with him at his work. Shaka was relaxed and asleep when I collected him.”
About: I’ve always loved being around and caring for dogs! I’ve had a dog of my own for almost my whole life, who I care for on the daily. When a friend is in need of a dog sitter they come to me and I care for their pup like my own! I am home very often on a daily basis so I have lots of time to spend with your pet and care for their needs! This leaves plenty of time for play and attention. I have a big fenced in yard where the dog can run and play along with my energetic 4 year old dog. Your pet can be crated if needed/desired but is welcome on the furniture just like my dog!
“Our dog Ollie is generally pretty anxious when we leave him away. With Rui, he calmed down really quickly and they had a great day! Rui provided updates and many pictures at the conclusion of Ollie’s stay”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for weeks at a time for the past four years in Colorado and Southern California. I love having your pup around as a friend and companion here in boulder, CO!

About: Although I am long distance from my fur best friends right now, I’ve grown up caring for dogs my entire life, including senior dogs and pups with disabilities. I also raised a rambunctious yellow Lab puppy on my own, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages, energy levels, and personalities. I believe every dog deserves patience, love, and attentive care, and I’ll treat yours like they’re my own. As a college student, I’m looking to earn some extra income doing something I genuinely love—caring for animals. My class schedule is very flexible, which gives me plenty of time to provide your pet with the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, sticking to a routine, or simply keeping them company while you’re away, I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my everyday life, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. My home has a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and plenty of space to relax indoors. There is almost always someone home to provide attention, companionship, and care, so your pet will rarely be left alone. I am a caring, responsible household and will treat your pet like a member of the family while they’re in my care.

He got a lot of play time and a walk, and loved running around in their yard. Celia and Mark kept me updated with pictures and videos so I knew he was doing well. I highly recommend them!”
About: I’m active, work from home, and a dog-lover. I have a flexible work from home schedule, so your pup gets consistent attention, frequent bathroom breaks, and never long stretches alone. I share my home with Mabel, my 4-year-old golden retriever. We're outside every day on local trails, dog-friendly hikes, and the dog park across the street. Mabel is friendly and welcoming to all pups. No yard, but Boulder is our backyard. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and I treat every pup like my own. Your dog will get personal attention, plenty of activity, and a flexible routine that works for them. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. Happy to coordinate with you to ensure your dog’s needs are met. Able to step out with your pup for bathroom breaks whenever needed. I don’t have a yard, but my golden retriever needs exercise each day. We’re outside every day on local trails, dog-friendly hikes, and the dog park across the street. Boulder is our backyard!
“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!”
“Murphy had a lovely time at daycare with Barbara and her family. She arrived at home utterly exhausted after a full day of activity (her favorite!) Thank you so much, Barbara!”
“J’Ana was absolutely incredible with our pup, Scout! From the moment we met her, we could tell how genuinely caring and loving she is, and that only became more evident throughout our stay in Boulder. She treated Scoutie like her own, giving her so much attention, affection, and thoughtful care. Her communication was outstanding the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. And the photos she sent were beyond amazing—her husband being a professional photographer definitely shows! Each update made us smile and reassured us that Scout was happy, comfortable, and in the best hands. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We will absolutely be booking J’Ana again the next time we’re back in Boulder, and we strongly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely love and care for their pet like their own. She is truly wonderful!! 🐶🐾💖”
About: I absolutely love dogs, and until recently, I had my own old, grumpy boy who taught me a lot about caring for dogs with unique needs. My family got our first dog when I was 13, and then welcomed another when I was 21. I was very involved in raising our second dog from puppyhood, so I have firsthand experience with the energy, patience, consistency, and supervision that young dogs require. About six years ago, I adopted my own dog from a shelter when he was already 8 years old. He had epilepsy and plenty of his own idiosyncrasies, which gave me experience caring for an older dog with medical needs and a very specific personality. I learned to pay close attention to changes in behavior, recognize when something was “off,” and adapt his care to what made him comfortable and happy. I especially enjoy getting to know each dog's individual personality and routine. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a senior who needs a little extra patience, or somewhere in between, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I currently work part-time and study from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m able to adjust my routine to accommodate your pup’s needs, whether that means regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, or simply having someone around for companionship. I’m home much of the day and would love to give your dog plenty of attention while you’re away. I live in a ground-floor apartment with a fenced-in backyard, including a dog door that gives pups easy access to the yard when they need it. I love getting outside and exploring the area, and I’d be happy to bring your dog along for a local hike, a neighborhood walk, or some playtime in the yard. I also live with my boyfriend, who works from home and is around for most of the day. He’s always happy to give visiting pets some extra attention and love, but I will be responsible for all of their care and will be their primary caregiver throughout their stay.
About: I have grown up with dogs all around and seen how much love and care they deserve. I know that not everyone has time to get them out as much as needed and I want to help keep as many pets happy as I can! Since moving to Boulder I have dog sat many times and I love how it gets me out of the house more than normal and gives me happiness like no other! Currently I am an online student so my schedule is very flexible! I am in the unique situation to put your pets needs at the top of the list and I want to take full advantage of that. When I am dog sitting or just watching a dog for few hours I make sure they have food when needed, I keep their water full and fresh, play with them, and give them plenty of love. I love going on walks with them, whether it be through the neighborhood or on a hike!

About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old, when I started my own little pet-sitting/walking "business" in my small town in Arizona. As an adult, I've owned and trained two dogs of my own, and I've never stopped being around animals since. Whether it's giving them plenty of pets & cuddles, keeping them active, or making sure they feel comfortable & secure, my biggest priority is providing a safe, loving experience for every pet in my care. I just recently moved to Colorado and I'm excited to grow my connection with you! I'm currently working as a writer (published author) and editor for other aspiring authors. I love spending a few hours in the morning and in the afternoon working on my laptop and developing my craft! I'm both a morning and evening person:) I take care of pets in their home so they can stay in the environment they’re most comfortable and familiar with. I love following detailed routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of attention & cuddles. I also ensure they have a clean, safe environment and never feel alone or neglected while you are away. Every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, (whether they're excited or a bit nervous) I love catering to their needs & preferences. My goal is to give them the kind of care they’re used to receiving at home!
“Brad was super responsive from the beginning of the booking process to the actual service. He arrived on time, was super sweet with our dog and left informative notes. He clearly loves animals and getting out with them. I look forward to having Brad help us out again!”

About: I have grown up with dogs, and being around them my whole life has taught me to read their body language and understand their needs and wants. I’ll make sure your pup stays happy and healthy! I am available between 6am - 6pm every day of the week for walks or drop-in visits. I am taking online courses so my schedule is very flexible. I make sure your dog has ample opportunity to go to the bathroom, has access to water at all times, and if required, meals are provided.
“Can't say enough good things about Ona!, their schedule is very flexible and they work with me with last minute requests and do a wonderful job. My beautiful little dog is always super happy when I come home and not too too fully energetic.”

About: Hi there! All my life I have been an animal lover and for the last 8 years I have raised my own dog, and taken care of other dogs for families I used to babysit for. I can fit in any lifestyle your pet has, whether they are active or a stay-at-home. I can fit any accommodation as I work from home, love to exercise (so your dog would get plenty of it, if need be), and I'm incredibly flexible and will be normally free to help you more than not. At the same time, I raised my dog since she was a puppy so I do have experience with younger, more energetic dogs and overall I would simply love to help and treat your dogs like family. I hope we can talk soon! I'm super flexible and work from home at the moment so I basically can take care of your dogs whenever you may need it. I will certainly be more free for your dog rather than not! I will care for your pet in your home however you see fit. I do what is asked and can fit any accommodation whether your dog has a lot of needs, or simply needs a walk and some playtime. I'm happy to help however it may be!

I am a student, so my schedule varies but I am usually free in the mornings and late afternoons. Overall I have a very flexible schedule. I am a flexible person and can accommodate to mostly any needs. My current housing does not allow animals, I am more interested in walking

“Our dog Allie had a wonderful time and was very comfortable for her first overnight stay. They were extremely responsive and kept us updated with pics! Will absolutely be using your services again!”
“Our dog had a wonderful time at Aubrey’s house. He had lots of furry friends to play with, spent time exploring outside and received many cuddles and love. Aubrey was wonderful at sending daily updates and pictures. Our pup came back exhausted from all the fun he had. Can’t wait to use Aubrey again next time we are away!”
“Georgia took great care of Zia! She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. She handled Zia's special diet and medications with ease and was very attentive to all her needs. Highly recommend!”
“My dog had a great time with Madeline. Madeline took her for lots of walks, and she handled my dog's anxiety/reactivity wonderfully. Will definitely be booking her again!”
“This was my first Rover experience so I was a little nervous to leave Indie with someone new (admittedly, I'm a rather needy pet parent - oops! :) ) Della was so thorough in explanation her daily routine with doggie visitors during our meet and greet a local park. Indie is a pretty shy with new people, and Della completely respected Indie's pace to earn her trust. Della has a radiantly warm and positive energy. Her calm confidence and compassion helped put both Indie and me at ease for her first overnight sleepover party. I received plenty of photos of Indie joyfully leaping around the park with the other doggie guests - and very prompt responses - which I so appreciate. Della somehow even captured a photo Indie with her floppy ears completely airborne as she ran around with other dogs - which made me laugh and is now my phone wallpaper. When I went to pick her up the next morning, her sweet daughter Uma parted with her with plenty of hugs and kisses. What a sweet family Indie is lucky to reside with when I'm out of town. We're lucky to have found Della & Uma!”
“My older dog Santo did well with Jacqueline's gentle care. She understood his limitations, especially regarding heat. He had plenty of toys, and was able to play with her well behaved dogs. Jacqueline runs a tight ship, which I appreciate.”
“This was my second time using Tigran. I felt like the pups were very well taken care of and loved. He sent me videos every day. Great communicator and flexible with drop off and pick up times. Highly recommend.”
“We weren’t able to book our normal sitter for our dog reactive pup and thought we’d have to miss a family trip until we met with Chris. Chris met with us and our pup a couple times very close to the date of the trip a to make sure our dog was comfortable in the new environment with new person. Once it seemed like he was, we talked through our dogs reactivity with Chris who was very attentive and understanding. He even went out of his way to let his neighbor (who has a dog) know he’d have a reactive pup there which was very thoughtful. During the trip, Chris gave us great updates and we felt good knowing he was in good hands. If we need a sitter again for any period of time, Chris will definitely be top of mind. Thanks Chris!”
“Elise sent plenty of pictures and took excellent care of my dog. Would highly recommend her, and plan on using her rover services again in the future!”
“Jessica and Sophie were wonderful watching our pup! We were sent many pictures and our dog had a great time playing with Sophie. He was well cared for and is now exhausted. Highly recommend!”
“Katherine & Andrew were so great and I hope to hire them again. They took my dog on a bunch of adventures and took great care of her. Lots of great pictures and communication throughout the week. They also picked her up and dropped her off, which was a big help. I’ll definitely be recommending them to my neighbors and friends nearby.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have helped care for them from when they were puppies through adulthood. Over the years, I’ve helped with daily walks, feeding, playtime, training reinforcement, and making sure they get plenty of attention and exercise. I’ve also helped care for dogs belonging to family members, which has given me experience with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. Growing up with dogs has taught me how important patience, consistency, and understanding each dog’s unique personality is when caring for them. I’m currently a graduate student doing research, which gives me a fairly flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate walks throughout the week. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so fitting dog walks into my daily routine comes naturally. Whether your dog needs a quick walk, regular exercise, or some extra attention during the day, I’ll work to provide reliable and consistent care. When caring for pets, my priority is always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I understand every dog has different personalities, energy levels, and routines, so I try to adapt to what works best for them. Whether in your home or out on walks, I focus on keeping pets safe, giving them plenty of attention, and following any instructions or routines you provide to ensure consistency and trust.
“Rachel is not only an extraordinary pet sitter, but she is an extraordinary person. Kind and delightful. She was wonderful with Buddha Bear and sent us lots of "Pupdates" of their walks, feeding, and hanging out in the yard. I know Bear had a great time. It was a bit challenging for us because we moved to the area less than two weeks ago, so we know our dog may be a little anxious at the moment with the move and everything that comes with it. Rachael was so patient with him, and he stayed with her while she was working. I couldn't speak more highly of her. I know Buddha Bear really loved her.”
About: I absolutely love dogs. All dogs, period. I have a deep understanding of each dog's unique needs, quirks, and preferences, and I make sure to give a tailored experience that goes beyond routine tasks. I strive to create a home away from home for your dogs and make sure they are comfortable as well as you. I currently work in the early afternoons with two days off during the week with full availability. I am an early bird and can be there for your dog as early as 6:30am until about 12:00pm. Safe Space: Designate a specific area or room for the pet, providing them with a sense of security. Exercise and Playtime: Engage in regular play sessions and take your pet for walks or provide a secure outdoor space for them to explore. Social Interaction: Spend quality time with your pet to prevent loneliness and anxiety. Provide toys and enrichment activities to keep them mentally stimulated. Emergency Plan: Be prepared for emergencies by having a first aid kit and knowing the location of the nearest veterinary clinic.
“Highly recommend Alex and Jeff. Responsive and on point with all communications. Great yard and set up. Felt really good about leaving our pup with them.”
“Barbara takes such great care of our pup, keeping her very active and loving on her a lot. I appreciate the pictures and updates each evening as well.”
“Rui was so attentive and loving towards Millie! It was so nice knowing that Millie was comfortable and settled, while also getting lots of exercise and play time! Will definitely book with Rui again. Thank you!!”
“We are so happy we found Natalie through a recommendation from a friend! She was great at communicating with us and took great care of our dog, Jerry. We loved the fact that she only hosts one dog at a time, as our guy gets out of sorts when the pack is separated. We felt he got all the attention he needed from Natalie during his stay with her. She was sure to make sure to find out everything she needed to know about his routine. We got several updates with photos while we were away, which always puts us at ease. Will definitely be booking with Natalie again!”
“Nick has been my go to sitter for my 2 pups for almost 2 years now! He always is super flexible with dates and drop off times and last minute boarding requests. His friend Gabe has also been so amazing with the pups as well. He’s brought my dogs along with him on camping trips and outings and I can tell they have so much fun by their reaction when we pull onto his property. I have not used another sitter since I found Nick. The dogs adore staying with him and I love the flexibility Nick has with boarding/daycare and how tired my dogs are once I pick them up from running around the farm all day!”
“A very good experience and great communiction between me and the host. Lots of photos shared and the hosts were very quick to respond. I got done with my trip early and they had no problem working with me to pick up my dog earlier than expected. I will be using them again when I am in the area. Thank you. Brent and Harvey.”
