“My puppy had SO MUCH FUN staying with Samantha - she’s amazing! I received daily updates and pics, and didn’t have reason to worry one bit because he was so incredibly well cared-for while there. Samantha definitely knows how to care for the furry kiddos, and I’ll definitely be a repeat customer. :-))”
“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.”
“Melinda was great with our 2 dogs and they were well taken care of. She also sent us daily updates with photos and videos. Would definitely book our sweet boys with her again.”
“Excellent experience with Missy and Evan. Great communication, flexible schedule, and clearly a loving home. Thanks and if you’ll have my pup again, we’ll be back!”
“I had an early flight and a late return due to weather. Chris and Diane were insanely accommodating and very sweet. Normally my dog has been pretty rattled when I come back from a trip and he’s been boarded. Bodhi was in good spirits and not traumatized. I highly recommend them.”
“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!”
“We are so happy that we found trustworthy dog sitters for Knox that he absolutely loves in Golden. We love Mitzi and Klifton. They are always our #1 choice.”
“Thank you for watching Sky & Moose! Chelcee and Alexander were very communicative and we felt at ease leaving them in their care. 10/10 would recommend to anyone in the area looking for dog sitters and will definitely be returning to them in the future!”
“Kristen was great with my 8 month old puppy. She kept him for two weeks and provided me with an update on his well being everyday, along with a short video. This being the first time we had left our puppy I didn't know what to expect with him being in a new environment with new people. I will say he did have some stress related issues but Kristen was very accommodating and worked with him to over come his anxiety. I would highly recommend Kristen.”
“Meera and Tofu loved their vacation with Amber and Chris. Tofu, who struggles with anxiety and meeting new people, felt right at home and got so much love that he didn’t even need his anxiety meds. Thank you so much Chris and Amber for loving our pups.”
“This was our first time having our dogs stay with Danielle, and I really cannot say enough kind things about her. From the first time we met with her she was welcoming, and made me feel very at ease with leaving our dogs with her. It was evident they were well taken care of, enjoyed lots of outdoor activity time, and lots of cuddles! Loved getting pictures every day showing how much fun they were having. Both dogs came home EXHAUSTED, which we know means they had a great time!”
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She took such great care of my dog while I was out of town - she kept me updated with messages and photos. My dog absolutely adored her! She gave him tons of love and snuggles and treated him like her own. He was so happy with her that he didn’t even want to leave when I came to pick him up! I’d 100% book with Kaitlyn again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter.”
“Linda was great with Jeter! She had a wonderful yard that he could play in. She sent photos and updates and Jeter had a wonderful time. We look forward to working with Linda again!”
“Victoria sent sweet photos and videos of our dog. She seemed safe and happy during her stay with Victoria! She was tired when she got home from playing with Victoria's puppy all weekend!”
“Kari was great and super easy to communicate with! She took great care of Lakota and we felt comfortable knowing she was in great care! We would use her again and highly recommend her as a sitter.”
“Danielle was wonderful! She was able to see my Lady super last minuet. She updated me while I was away and my dog seemed like she truly enjoyed her time with her! Thank you Danielle!”
“Another perfect stay with Tiffany! We definitely appreciated her flexibility as our plans changed more than once! Fitz goes crazy when we pull up to her house! Daily pictures were appreciated too, thanks Tiffany!!”

“Ryan was fantastic with taking care of our two cats and our home. He sent frequent updates and photos of the boys which we really appreciated. We were also shocked and very happy to come home to clean bedding and towels that he washed before leaving. We will definitely be booking Ryan again in the future and would highly recommend him to others!”
“Kelly has been caring for Hubert a few times now this year, as I take trips. She is so reliable, thorough, and attentive, and my cat loves her! She’s very knowledgeable about feline enrichment, which is a bonus.”
“Melina was attentive, experienced and accommodating. She even cleaned up after our cat after she vomited a mouse up onto the carpeted stairs. That is going above and beyond... we are forever grateful!”
About: I first was introduced to cats when I was 4 years old and I was instantly in love!! I have a kitty now who is a very adventurous and stubborn boy cat and I absolutely adore him, make sure he gets play, sunshine, food, water, and clean environment. I love cats and animals in general and I even talk to the neighborhood cats when I walk my dog! I am very flexible, I work from home so pet care & house sitting compliment my lifestyle easily!
“Sarah took incredible care of our two cats! She went above and beyond (taking the litter boxes outside of the bathtub they were in and wiping down the tub when she noticed the cats made a mess) and gave them lots of love and playtime! She even got out incredibly shy cat to come out and play with her. Throughout, she was a great communicator and fast to respond. Highly recommend her!”
“This was our second time booking with Lauren and once again she was wonderful with our two cats. She’s reliable, communicative & so caring. We loved her updates and came home to two happy pets! Thanks again!”
About: I've taken care of and been around dogs my whole life. I've personally had dogs that I've trained, loved, and cared for from puppyhood to end of life senior care and would love to use this spectrum of experience to give your dogs the care and attention they deserve. While my own dogs have been smaller breeds of Bichons and a Corgis, I have plenty of time invested in caring for larger breed dogs with a wide variety of temperaments. I am an active person myself and would love to keep your dog happy and healthy! Caring for animals has been part of my daily life for as long as I can remember. Checking in on a pet's needs or simply giving them frequent love and attention are second nature to me. My schedule allows for genuine flexibility to give each pet the time and attention they deserve. I currently do not have any pets of my own, so I am free and open to treat every dog like they're my own, whether it be a simple midday walk or overnight stay! Whether I'm caring for a pet in your home, or just stopping by for a walk, my commitment to making you and your dog feel safe and happy remains the same. I will follow the owner's establish routines, command words, and schedules as closely as possible as that consistency is what keeps pets calm and happy. In your home I will treat the space with total respect, sticking to feeding schedules, walking routes, and any rules set, including for myself. I can provide as many or as little updates as you prefer, and welcome any questions to make this a mutually beneficial relationship.
“Savannah did an amazing job sitting for our dogs. Her promptness, communication, and attention to detail were excellent throughout the entire stay. She handled our dogs with care and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Highly recommended for anyone on Rover. We will be using her again for sure.”
“Sthefany and Jeshael are the best! They watched our kitten for the weekend, and kept us updated each day with plenty of photos. Great communications and super friendly. Thank you both!!”
“Brooke is very kind and is always on time, she makes sure to send me many pictures and has been so available to watch my bunny! Her flexibility has been so helpful when my work schedule changed. Highly recommend her as a sitter!”
“Leah is always amazing when she watches my crazy heeler, Chester when I work long shifts! She has been very flexible about scheduling drop in visits and always lets me know how the visit went. As an added bonus, her dog Aspen is super friendly (and after asking permission and doing a meet and greet), she sometimes brings her dog with her, which gives my dog some socialization and play time! I am totally comfortable trusting her with my pooch and know he's in good hands.”

“I cannot say enough good things about Carmel's care. Our dog is loved here as though she were at home, only with more dog friends to play with. Simply amazing, above and beyond expectations.”
About: My husband and I are five star home and pet owners and sitters for over three years with over 40 years of experience. We love your pets like our own! We are both young and retired and design all of our pet sits with a priority toward you and your pets needs with professional expertise and flexibility! We have a four acre fenced in yard with plenty of land to play and walk your dog. We also enjoy small hikes that we Taylor to fit your pets abilities.
“Hannah took care of my Senior Brandy and my puppy Sadie for 12 hours of day care. She took some photos and even washed Sadies pad when she went in her crate. I hope to use her again soon.”
“Abigail was quick to respond and super friendly. We were visiting from out of town and couldn’t leave our dog in the hotel alone. We were attending a wedding and Abigail was able to watch our dog the 5 hours we were away. It was such a relief to know our dog was safe and happy while we were busy. It worked so well she watched him for a couple hours the next day while we’re on a tour where dogs were not allowed. It made our vacation stress-free! Thank you Abigail!”
“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.”
“Definitely recommend and will use Brandi again to look after my dogs. I was able to go to work with a great sense of peace of mind knowing my fur baby was in exceptional hands. 6 stars if I could!”
“These guys are the best dog sitters ever! Thank you so much. You've made my life so much easier and my dog feel so loved. I don't stress at all when I know she's in your loving hands.”
“Felipe is a lovely man who was timely, had great communication and seemed to show care and kindness to our little puppy, Beatrix. Beatrix did a day stay with Felipe, he took her to the dog park and for a walk. I really appreciated that he messaged me a video of her when she was crying- on review it was just her overtired puppy cry and she had a nap shortly after. I would recommend him to other dog parents! Thanks Felipe!!”
“Diane and Chris were the best! Miles made himself right at home — I’m pretty sure he didn’t even miss me 😅. They gave him tons of love, and he came home happy, tired, and freshly spoiled. Couldn’t have asked for better sitters — so glad I found them!”
“Jenna was an absolutely wonderful host! I booked two days of daycare in her home, and my pup came back happy and tired each time. She is incredibly caring, patient, and understanding of my dog’s unique needs and personality quirks. I don’t easily trust others with my pup, but Jenna’s consistent communication, timeliness, thoughtful updates, and genuine interest in learning about my dog’s training went above and beyond. I highly recommend her!”
“Our high energy 8 mo pup had a fantastic time at Olga's house! She has a great fenced in backyard for dogs to run and her pup, Zeus, is super sweet and successfully wore out Fable. She sent pictures and was very trustworthy and responsive. Fable can't wait to go back! Thank you!”
“Alexandra was amazing! She responded so quick when I was in a pinch to find daycare for my boys and accepted my request on short notice. She kept me updated throughout the day and included pictures with the updates. My boys had a blast spending the day with her cute pups! Highly recommend booking with her :)”
“Arkasha had a great time with Jake and Cheyenne and I would highly recommend them (unless you are booking when Arkasha wants to go back). Excellent communication and they took great care of Arkasha when a few fireworks went off in the neighborhood. Great experience”
About: Your dog deserves more than a place to wait out the day. When Brady, my black lab of almost 14 years, passed last year, I made a decision to put that same devotion into other people’s dogs. A lifetime of caring for dogs of all sizes means yours gets consistent company, a fully customized routine, and a vacation of their own rather than hours in a crate. Because I tailor each visit to your dog, no two days look exactly the same. Whether that’s taking full advantage of our fenced backyard, hitting a trail for a hike, or being lazy and lounging on one of the plush beds inside, your dog’s day is built around them. For dogs with medical needs or slowing down with age, I’m experienced with oral and injectable medications and know how to adapt the day to whatever they actually need. I'm home full time and available for dog walks and day care on weekdays, with a level of flexibility that most sitters can't offer. Whether you need a midday walk or a full day of company, I work around what fits your dog's routine best. Send me a message and we'll find something that works. My husband and I live in a single family home in Golden that's setup with dogs in mind: fully fenced backyard, doggy door for constant yard access, ramps for senior or mobility-limited dogs, and multiple rooms for separation or quiet time when needed. Green Mountain Animal Hospital is minutes away for any emergency. I only book one dog at a time, so your pup gets my complete, undivided attention for the entire service. We have a 13-year-old lab named Atlas, but he goes to work with my husband every day so your dog won't need to share the space. Your house rules are my house rules, from furniture boundaries to feeding schedules, so your dog's experience here feels as consistent as possible. Expect regular updates and photos throughout the day so you always know how your pup is doing :)
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!
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!

“Ryan dealt wonderfully with my very nervous and untrusting rescue puppy. Although the walk did not go as planned, he did an excellent job of communicating the issues with me and handling the situation professionally and calmly. Thank you for all your help!”
“This is our second time working with Sora for our puppy Hans. Would definitely recommend her to anyone wanting a thoughtful, responsible, and communicative person to watch their pup!”
“William has been fantastic with Cleo. She’s pretty timid with males at first, but William has made quite the effort to make her feel calm. You can tell that he is such a natural with dogs!!! He’s punctual, great at communicating, and kind. Would definitely recommend him!!!!”
About: I bring patience, affection, and attentiveness to every pet I care for, whether it is walks, drop in visits, or overnight stays. I always make sure to approach every animal with patience, awareness, and care while learning their personality and comfort level. 💕 I recently graduated college and am currently building my own business from home, which means I have a flexible schedule and lots of time to spend with animals throughout the day. After years in the restaurant industry, I realized how much happier I am caring for pets, going on walks, and creating peaceful routines instead. I apply the same attention to detail, routine, cleanliness and care for pets & homes. House sitting and pet care are a natural fit for me and my lifestyle! ✨ I always follow each client’s specific instructions and routines closely and make sure I understand what their dog enjoys and feels comfortable with. I truly enjoy building trust with every animal I meet and take the time to earn their comfort and friendship in a calm and patient way. 😊

About: Ever since we got Luna in 2020, I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats, I’ve done house-sitting, do-walking, and taken care of pets in my neighborhood. I’m a college graduate home for the summer, so my schedule is very flexible, I am available throughout the week and also the weekends for house-sitting I follow the pets routines of walks, going to the bathroom, and eating schedules and also engage with them, like playing and taking them on long walks
“Melina did wonderful with Willow; she warmed up to Melina almost immediately. Melina also provided plenty of updates with pictures so I was never worried about my little girl.”
“Ken is such a great new friend to my dog, Denzel, and we’re lucky to have found him. Ken is patient, kind, always on time, and my pup loves going on walks with him- all of the qualities you want in someone you are trusting your pet with!”
“Dan was really fantastic. Very accommodating and clearly loves dogs. Carter had so much fun with him going to the dog park and really getting extra care. Dan is fabulous, an excellent caregiver for your dog.”
About: I am extremely patient and engaged and love getting to know each pet at their own pace. I am a dangly cat toy expert and strongly believe in play with both cats and dogs. I also send lots of pet pics because as a pet owner, I know that’s what we need when we are missing our pets. I have a flexible work remote job. I am able to check in am/lunch/pm/evening as needed and give your pet my full attention during that time :) I always give pets my full attention and engage in both the necessary tasks (food, water, litter box, walks, etc.) and enrichment activities (play, catnip, treats, etc.).

About: I have taken care of many animals of all shapes and sizes for many years. Being in the health and wellness industry as a private local massage, therapist and aesthetician the healing nature runs deep within my veins that can be an easy connection with many animals, older animals with any health issues are always welcome without hesitation. Having two dogs of my own we have gone through extensive training research and play that will be brought and used with your animals alike. Going on adventures is something I love to do such as hikes, dog parks, rivers, care rides or simply going on a neighborhood stroll. Whatever your family needs I am here to help!
