“Mitzi & Klifton were the first people I trusted to watch my pup, Kabotie. I was nervous about leaving him with anyone but the meet and greet we had before his stay calmed my nerves. And the daily pictures, sometimes multiple per day were so appreciated. I would highly recommend them for anyones pup, they’re a very loving couple that give a ton of individual attention to each dog. Plus they have a beautiful backyard, perfect for pups to run around!”
“Y’all have no idea how thankful I am for Missy and Evan! Bru had such a great time that I now consider them his second family. Thanks for taking such great care of my boy!”
“This was our second stay with Nicole and Craig. Not only does their family provide love and care for our precious Shibas, but they are patient with their quirks and persistent food hunting! Thank you Nicole, Craig, and your boys for keeping Winnie and Rocky safe and loved while we are away!”
“Sehwa & Adam watched our dog and cat in their home over a long weekend. It was really helpful being able to keep the animals together. We received pictures each day of them going for walks and getting lots of attention. I would definitely recommend Sehwa & Adam and use them again for pet sitting in the future.”
“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.”
“Barbara was so wonderful with my older GSD, Ranger! She loved on him and babied him when his back legs started acting up. Every picture Barbara sent was precious. I felt very comfortable with the care Ranger received. I’d highly recommend Barbara!”
“Stella had an amazing stay with Stephen and his family. It was a great experience all around and communication was great. Stella was taken very good care of and we would definitely use Stephen again for a sitter. Really appreciate how well she was taken care of! Thank you!”
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.
“Melinda was great host for our dog Marci. This was her first time there, and Marci seemed happy and tired when we picked her up so signs of a good stay. Our flight was delayed due to weather, and Melinda graciously kept her overnight for us. We would not hesitate to use her again.”
“This was the first time in the 7 years that Bolt and I have been together that I have had to board him. He’s a bit of an anxious puppy, and I am definitely an anxious mom when it comes to dog care. From the moment Danielle reached back out to us to let us know that she would take him in over the holidays, I felt reassured that I would be leaving him in good hands. Danielle provided so many photos during Bolt’s stay, which was so great for a neurotic pet parent like me. Danielle and her family were so inviting and friendly, and the love and care that they have for eachother and their home shines through in the care that they were able to provide to my boy. A million out of ten, I can’t put into words what a great experience this was for us and we will absolutely be using Danielle’s rover services again in the near future.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Delane when she cared for Monet for three days. From the very beginning, during our meet and greet, we genuinely enjoyed our conversation with her. Delane is such a lovely and thoughtful person, and clearly experienced with dogs. Her dog, Lucy, is absolutely sweet and gentle, and Monet and Lucy got along very well. Delane’s home is warm and welcoming, and Monet settled in right away. She kept us updated throughout Monet’s stay, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that Monet was not only well cared for, but also comfortable. We would happily book with Delane again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, warm, and dependable caregiver. Thank you, Delane!!”
“Steve and Susan were the ultimate dog sitters! We had planned to have one of our friends watch the dog and bring her to our wedding so she could be the ring bearer but when our plans fell through Steve and Susan saved the day! They took care of everything we asked and they were available to pick Lucy up from our event in Golden. Lucy was super comfortable there and they even sent some of pictures of Lucy having a great time!”
“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!”
“Gorgeous yard with plenty of space to run. Noodle had a great time and came home very tired. Sarah was quick to communicate, and I felt very comfortable with Noodle in her care. I hope to book Sarah again for our next trip!”
“Kari was amazing! She was available last minute and was very accommodating. She sent tons of pictures and you can tell she really cares about dogs & their owners!! Will be booking again.”
“We left our pup with Lynn and John for our first extended time away and they did an amazing job! They sent so many photos and video updates! They treat Reina like their own dog and it made our trip so much more enjoyable knowing she was in good hands! Thank you!!”

“We love Robyn! She takes wonderful care of our babies, and we will be hiring her more often, now that we have a trusted sitter in the area. She’s communicative, thorough, loves all animals and puts in the extra effort. Traveling is so much easier when you have someone you can rely on. Thank you Robyn!”

“Madison, Thank you for taking care of my baby girl Aspen! The time, along with her meds and the loving you showed her, even taking the time for a meet and great! I know she’s looking forward to seeing you again!”
“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!”
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.
About: I’ve taken care of kids and animals my whole life because I love providing love and care to all living things! I enjoy taking pets on walks, engaging them with their toys, and of course giving them some good pats and scratches :) I work remotely and have the flexibility in my schedule to match the routines you keep with your fur babies. Taking a break from work to go on a walk, play fetch, or give some pats & scratches is my favorite! Any pet in my care will be getting the VIP treatment where attention, playtime, and affection are concerned. I used to be a teacher, and from my time managing classes of over 35 middle schoolers and their art supplies, I am a very flexible, detail oriented person, who follows instructions closely which would translate well into specific care needs for any pet. You tell me what your pet needs and I will make it happen at a high quality!
“Casey was very communicative during our trip. All the kitties were well-loved, well-fed, and happy upon our return! He even cleaned up a big mess when they knocked over a planter into their water bowls. So sorry for the messy house with having to leave during the power outage!”
“Sami was fabulous. She checked in on our cat for three days and visited around the same time every morning to feed and play with him. We received adorable photos throughout our vacation. Absolutely would recommend and would use her again!”
“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!”
“Danielle was an absolutely fantastic sitter for our cats while we were away! She made sure to give all the details of how they were doing and sent lots of great pics. She was also easy to communicate with and answered any questions right away. We will be using Danielle as our go-to sitter in the future! Highly recommend!”
“Our cat was well taken care of during our 8-day trip. They were reliable, communicated as needed, and everything went smoothly. We’d book with them again.”
About: I love animals more than life!! Ive been so lucky to have had such a wide variety of pets of my own and to have met and cared for so many of my friends and families pets as if they are my own.

“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.”
“Robyn is a wonderful dog sitter and lovely person. She understands dog behavior and knew how to reduce my dog's anxiety when being introduced to her dogs, which can often lead to snippy behavior. She helped my Lucy to be very comfortable during her overnight stay to the point that Lucy initiated play with another dog, which is unusual for her. Robyn was flexible with pick up and drop off which was great for our situation. I'm so glad I found Robyn and would highly recommend her.”
“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: 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: 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.
“Fantastic, last minute booking while we took the Georgetown train ride! Took our doggos on a walk right away and kept them nice and cool and safe while we enjoyed some family time on the train. Thank you for your kindness and flexibility!”
“Olga and family took great care of Juniper for a long day of doggie daycare. She had a great time playing with the other dogs and slept hard when she came home! Thanks again, Olga!”
“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.”
“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 am a stay-at-home mama in the Genesee area. I have two wonderful boys aged seven and nine who love animals! We love cuddling with sweet fur babies and love getting outside for energetic ones too! My boys will occasionally be helping me with dog walking, feeding, petting, and loving on your pet(s)! We just added Minnie the puppy to our family and would love playmates who play well with others! We have a large beautiful unfenced yard and then a small dog run with a doggie door. I currently am a stay at home mom and my husband works from home so someone is usually here all the time to care for your fur children! I will make sure your fur baby is as comfortable as possible. I would love to hear all about their needs to make sure they love my home like their own!
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).
“Amelia is amazing! I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone. She sent me a video and picture updates throughout the day. Willow came home a very happy pup and we will be coming back. Thanks Amelia for your kindness!”
About: I have raised both of my families dogs since they were puppies, and have cared for my relatives elderly pets. We have a very large fenced yard, have neighborhood access to a local trail system, and are 5-10 minutes from Evergreens lakes and parks for all exercise needs! I only board one dog at a time in order to give them my undivided attention. I love housing puppies, my 7 month old Samoyed would love to play with them ! I am available throughout the week and during weekends. My daily hours can vary, but most are spent at home, meaning I am able to provide for whatever needs your pet may have. I have an extremely large fenced yard around our 6000 sqft house, multiple outdoor walking options including: Evergreen Lake, Elk Meadow Park, Flying J Ranch, and Three Sisters Trail, all within 10 minutes. There is also plenty of indoor space for your pet to roam, explore, and make themselves at home in. I house 2 of my own dogs that will be happy to keep your pet company!
“Kira did such an amazing job with job with our babies Rolo and Ruby. Our pups have different needs and Kira was on top of everything. She was so attentive and caring. She went above and beyond with the care my babies got when they were with her. The house is safe, calm, clean and Kira is an absolutely lovely human.”
“Our sweet Gus had an awesome time with Cory and his pups! Gus ran right up to Cory and didn’t even look back on his way inside—Cory is clearly wonderful with dogs. Gus came home tired and happy after his first day of daycare!”
“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!”
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.

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: 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: Hi there! An animal lover, I have had dogs and cats for most of my life. Currently I have a 11 year old husky shepherd mix who loves to play.

I have some commitments out of the house but can take your individual pets needs into account when pet sitting to ensure they have the attention and outdoors time that they need! We have a large yard and enjoy taking long walks in the forest outside our front door. Our yard is a dog’s paradise with places to run, to look out on the world, to sunbathe, and to take cover in the shade.
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.

About: Proud 3 year old mini eskimo owner! I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 7. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets.

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.
“Don was amazing with my pup! He gave a great experience of adventure to her and I really loved that. He worked with her while she was with him and I love that also. I highly recommend Don for the care of your pup! My pup is usually apprehensive with men and I was happy she enjoyed her time and stay with Don. He communicated well with me and I appreciated that. Thank you so much Don :)”
“Ashley is the absolute best! She is very flexible with scheduling and responds quickly. My dogs love her and look forward to their walks together. She always asks about my preferences and sends the cutest picture updates. Her patience with my non-leash trainer dogs is amazing. We will continue to use her for as long as she will take us as clients!”
About: I have been around dogs since the day I was born. Always living with at least two in my house. Most have been rescues but I have had the opportunity to train some from 8 weeks old. I watch both of my best friends dogs when they go out of town usually for a couple of nights. I love dogs with all my heart. I always walk and care for them no matter whose they are. I’m currently spending time back home and have lots of extra time to help take care of your pets. I’m available most days to either walk, or house sit depending on your needs. I love animals and can help for single to multiple days. I have three dogs that all get along well with other dogs. If you needed me to take care of your pets at my house I have plenty of space and activities. Behind my house is a soccer field as well as a trail up to mesa cortina. Fetch and hikes will be a definite.
“Mitchell was awesome!!! My family and I were riding the Georgetown Train Loop but had our dog en route. Mitchell walked and played with her for 2 hours while we rode the train. He even met us at the train station when we were running late!! Our doggie had a great time thank you!”

“Mitzi & Klifton were the first people I trusted to watch my pup, Kabotie. I was nervous about leaving him with anyone but the meet and greet we had before his stay calmed my nerves. And the daily pictures, sometimes multiple per day were so appreciated. I would highly recommend them for anyones pup, they’re a very loving couple that give a ton of individual attention to each dog. Plus they have a beautiful backyard, perfect for pups to run around!”
“Y’all have no idea how thankful I am for Missy and Evan! Bru had such a great time that I now consider them his second family. Thanks for taking such great care of my boy!”
“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.”
“Barbara was so wonderful with my older GSD, Ranger! She loved on him and babied him when his back legs started acting up. Every picture Barbara sent was precious. I felt very comfortable with the care Ranger received. I’d highly recommend Barbara!”
“Stella had an amazing stay with Stephen and his family. It was a great experience all around and communication was great. Stella was taken very good care of and we would definitely use Stephen again for a sitter. Really appreciate how well she was taken care of! Thank you!”
“Melinda was great host for our dog Marci. This was her first time there, and Marci seemed happy and tired when we picked her up so signs of a good stay. Our flight was delayed due to weather, and Melinda graciously kept her overnight for us. We would not hesitate to use her again.”
“This was the first time in the 7 years that Bolt and I have been together that I have had to board him. He’s a bit of an anxious puppy, and I am definitely an anxious mom when it comes to dog care. From the moment Danielle reached back out to us to let us know that she would take him in over the holidays, I felt reassured that I would be leaving him in good hands. Danielle provided so many photos during Bolt’s stay, which was so great for a neurotic pet parent like me. Danielle and her family were so inviting and friendly, and the love and care that they have for eachother and their home shines through in the care that they were able to provide to my boy. A million out of ten, I can’t put into words what a great experience this was for us and we will absolutely be using Danielle’s rover services again in the near future.”
“Steve and Susan were the ultimate dog sitters! We had planned to have one of our friends watch the dog and bring her to our wedding so she could be the ring bearer but when our plans fell through Steve and Susan saved the day! They took care of everything we asked and they were available to pick Lucy up from our event in Golden. Lucy was super comfortable there and they even sent some of pictures of Lucy having a great time!”
“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!”
“Gorgeous yard with plenty of space to run. Noodle had a great time and came home very tired. Sarah was quick to communicate, and I felt very comfortable with Noodle in her care. I hope to book Sarah again for our next trip!”
“We left our pup with Lynn and John for our first extended time away and they did an amazing job! They sent so many photos and video updates! They treat Reina like their own dog and it made our trip so much more enjoyable knowing she was in good hands! Thank you!!”
“Our pup, Murray, just got home from a 5 night stay with Jenn. He is one happy camper! We know we was well loved and well taken care of. Jenn shared a daily update and photo - which was perfect. We really appreciated that Jenn only takes one family at a time. We also loved that Jenn works from home and that Murray was able to lounge on the furniture, bed, etc. making her house a true home away from home for him. We highly recommend and will be in touch again for another visit!”
“Kristin (& Family) took such great care of our pup! She took him completely last minute, sent pics of his stay (over the top!) and just added him as a member to her family (and didn’t have other dogs besides her own in the mix) for the week. We are so thankful and can’t wait til he can go back. He has plenty of space to run/roam, enjoyed his playmate dogs and, when he came home, was wiped out for a day straight! Thanks so much!!”
“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!”
