“Yi Ling was great! She sent updates with pictures and we felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her. Would definitely recommend and will be using her again in the future.”
“Tammy and her son took such great care of Louie! We received daily updates and it was obvious he was getting lots of love and attention. We will definitely work with her again.”
“Jessica was so good with our dogs. Her kids were very sweet and loved to play with them. She has a big yard for the dogs to run around and lots of places for them to hang out or get cuddles. Jessica was very quick to respond while we were away, and we felt very comfortable leaving them with her family. She was very understanding and was a lifesaver when we had a last minute change of holiday plans.”
“Laurel and her lovely family took such great care of my little one and I highly recommend her. Laurel provided photos and updates throughout her stay and made me feel really comfortable. Absolutely would use again and really appreciated the loving care she provided.”
“Sidney was great, Ludwig seemed to love his stay. There was some mixup with our booked dates and she was very kind and accommodating. Would love to book her again.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From our first meeting, it was obvious that Scout was in caring, capable hands. Throughout the stay, we received regular updates, photos, and messages that gave us complete peace of mind. When we picked Scout up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly comfortable, which says everything. It’s such a relief to know there’s someone we can trust completely when we’re away. We will absolutely book again and recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for an exceptional Rover sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Scout!”
“Kimberly was highly communicative, flexible, and showed my pup the love and care that we give her at home. I really appreciated the text updates and pictures and will certainly be boarding with her again. It was a great experience all around.”
“This was our second time having Amber watch our dog. Olive had a fantastic time, and our dog was having some tummy issues during her stay which Amber was very helpful with and gracious about. Amber is always flexible and our dog loves staying with her!”
“This is the second time our dog has stayed with Darcy and he ran right into the house. He's very comfortable there. Darcy takes very cute pictures and sends them them a while away, which I appreciate. Thank you for being so flexible as well!”
“It is VERY important to me that Ben receive the same sort of care I would provide him myself when in need of a sitter. Whether on vacation or away on business, I need that assurance so that I can focus on matters at hand and not be worried he's locked up in a crate or stuck in a closet for a kennel somewhere...I got that with Andrea T. (and her son Dillon assisted tremendously). THANK YOU for allowing me to enjoy the rodeo and concert @ Frontier Days in Cheyenne by providing excellent care for Ben.”
“I look forward to taking Finn to Ben’s when we go out of town. Finn loves playing with his two dogs, especially his 1-year-old energetic pup with amazing agility! Ben walks Finn along the lakes. We can tell he loves all kinds of dogs and that this is a passion for him, not just a job! He sends photos that warm our hearts. We will continue to bring Finn to Ben for his care of Finn!”
“Ryan and Lorien were wonderful with our Charlie dog. Their sweet dog even shared their toy with him. Charlie was given lots of love and attention. We felt at ease having him there while on our vacation. Would definitely book with them again. Thanks!”
“Melissa was great! After the first day, I felt confident that Ilo will be taken care of. Hence, my anxiety went away that day and that I know Ilo will be just fine :) Would highly recommend Melissa.”
“Joni is an exceptional sitter who deserves 'Star' status! From our first meeting, her dedication was clear—she even took detailed notes to ensure Pepper’s needs were met. Pepper had a wonderful time with her dog, Tilly, who is incredibly sweet. Beyond her care for the animals, Joni was 100% responsive and remarkably gracious when I made a mistake with my booking. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, but most of my pet care experience comes from my own dog, Tuna. I adopted Tuna in 2014, when he was a year old, and he lived with me for 12 wonderful years until he crossed the rainbow bridge in October 2025. I am becoming a Rover sitter to bring the companionship of a dog back into my life while offering other pet parents the highest level of dedicated care. Through caring for Tuna and my family's dogs over the years, I have extensive experience with all types of dogs, including highly active young adults and seniors requiring specialized care. As a former pet parent, I understand how stressful it is to leave your dog with someone else and trust they will be cared for as you would. I aim to ease that stress with loving, supportive, and dedicated care. I have included more detailed information on my experience below. Senior care: -Experienced in administering daily oral medications and supplements while managing strict dosing schedules. -Familiar with guiding dogs through physical therapy exercises, managing arthritis, and accommodating the slower pace of aging pets. -Experienced in managing complex nutritional needs, including transition care, dehydrated food, and preparing fresh meals from scratch. -Ability to manage specialized routines, including transporting pets to appointments such as veterinary acupuncture or maintaining routines for such appointments. Behavioral needs: -Experienced caring for a highly reactive dog with a history of abuse. -Familiar with reading dog body language, avoiding triggers during walks, and managing anxious or fearful dogs. -Skilled at establishing a calm, low-stress environment for dogs who need extra time to warm up to new people or spaces. Exercise needs: -Well-versed in safely handling dogs while hiking, camping, and swimming in the Colorado outdoors. -Accustomed to providing multiple structured walks a day, tailored to your dog's energy level. Hygiene needs: -Routine experience with monthly bathing, nail trimming, and ear cleaning. I work almost entirely from home Monday through Friday (9 a.m. to 5 p.m.). While I keep regular work hours, my job offers excellent flexibility. This means your pup won't be left alone; I am readily available throughout the day for potty breaks, neighborhood walks, and dedicated playtime. If your pet requires a specific medication schedule, multiple feedings a day, or extra companionship while you are away, I can seamlessly integrate their routine into my workday. When your pet is with me, they are treated like family. I aim to provide a safe, structured, and deeply affectionate environment so you can have total peace of mind. If they are used to cuddling on the couch or sleeping in bed, they are more than welcome to do so. However, I am happy to enforce any house rules and boundaries you already have in place. Overall, I maintain a very clean, organized, and pet-proofed home. All trash cans have lids, plants are kept out of reach, and miscellaneous items are never left out where a dog can reach them. I live in a third-floor apartment with no elevator. My home is best suited for dogs who are fully mobile or small enough to be easily carried, as we will need to navigate two flights of stairs for every outing. My apartment complex features a private dog park and plenty of walking paths. I also have access to a community doggy bathing station, which is perfect if your dog requires bathing while in my care.
“Jeremy and Jamie took great care of our big babies while we were out of town! We were nervous since we had never left our pups with someone before, but Jeremy and Jamie were the best possible people!! We received photos and videos of our dogs having the best time and settling in over their stay. I had complete confidence in our kiddos being taken care of the way they should have and our minds were at ease. Thank you so much again!”
“We left our dog with Ashlan for 10 days and our dog did so well. Ashlan gave us regular updates, gave her love, and took her on walks. Upon meeting Ashlan you can immediately tell she is a true animal lover. I will be using Ashlan every time we go out of town!”

“Kieanne watched our cats while we were away on a long trip and took such good care of them!! We hate to leave them for so long but we knew they were in good hands with her!”
“Amaya took great care of our kitty. She kept the litter box clean and maintained the food and water bowls. She provided our kitty playtime, attention, and outdoor time. She regularly communicated with us through the Rover app. She provided pictures and a brief summary of her visit. Amaya offered suggestions on calming techniques for animals that are left alone. She arranged for a get to know you visit before we left on vacation. I would highly recommend Amaya as a pet sitter. I will reach out to her the next time I go out of town.”

I’m comfortable with all kinds of cats, shy ones, frisky ones, lazy ones, etc. Trust me to keep your cat in safe hands! 🐾
“Anna is great and super reliable. Definitely eases our mind knowing our two cats were in great hands while we were away. Even our shy boy, who is so afraid of new people came out to say hi. I appreciate the detailed updates and photos. It was our first time working with Anna and it will not be our last. Thanks again! Until next time!”
“This was my second time booking with Sheryl. Just as her prior visits, she was fantastic! She was on time, took great care of my 2 cats, and even stopped in on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and the day after Christmas to take care of them. She is trustworthy, punctual in her visits and communication, and does a great job! I'd definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter! I will absolutely continue to book with her in the future. Thank you, Sheryl!”
“Sadie was fantastic taking care of our two cats. Both have different health issues and she took great care with the all the specific needs both require. She stayed over the holidays to look after them while we were away and came back to a pair of happy, loved kitties and also a clean home. Can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I have always been around animals, never in my life have I not had a dog. Growing up I volunteered at the local animal shelter walking, training and taking care of the animals there. Once I got my own car I started sitting for friends and family. As a massage therapist I took animal massage courses in school, I am very comfortable handling animals. I love being outdoors and active, I am very excited about being a dog walker. In my home we are very relaxed, allowing our pets lots of room and freedoms to play inside and outside in the fenced yard as well as lounge on the couches and pet beds. We don't use crates or keep animals separated unless instructed by their people, we like for the dogs to be together and play with eachother! That being said, we do have spare rooms for pets that have social anxieties. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to care for your pups! When I work I am home by noon to give potty breaks and lots of love and attention! My back yard is a nice fenced yard for safe play time and potty breaks. I have 2 dogs to keep your furbaby company during their stay. Crates are available if preferred for alone time or night time.
“Kylee is great! She is very communicative and always on time. I have a lot of anxiety when it comes to letting someone else take care of my dogs, but I trust Kylee and will continue to book with her.”
About: I have cared for cats my entire life, including cats with FLUTD and asthma. I am comfortable administering medications, monitoring for symptoms or behavior changes, cleaning litter boxes (including robot litter boxes), and following specific feeding routines and care instructions closely. I understand that cats can have very different personalities and comfort levels, and I always take a calm patient approach to help them feel safe and comfy.
“Ashley was fantastic! She made me feel comfortable even though I have quite a bit of worry with leaving my rescue cats with others. She let me know she has rescues too and this was a big plus. She was super responsive and quick and, was flexible with us so we could pick them up early. They came home happier than the last time I had to keep them somewhere for a day which, is huge because… moving my cats is an act of god in itself. I will be using Ashley in the future if she’s available!”

“Trixie has so much fun going to see Amelia and playing with her 2 dogs. I get pictures throughout the day, and Trixie is so happy and also worn out from playing when I pick her up. Great sitter!”
“Many thanks for your flexibility in accomodating a last minute request for day care. Gumbo had a great time and we did not have to worry about her while we were out. She was pretty stressed out about our leaving until she realized she got to spend to day being treated like a queen by Kyle and Desiree.”
“George,Abigail, Mac and Gus did such a great job of making Luna feel at home with them. She came home tired and happy from a fun day. I would happily recommend their services.”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals for a very long time. I’m an animal lover. I am dependable, reliable and trustworthy and looking forward to taking care of your fur babies. I am a stay at home mom for the last 13 years. My kids are in school and wanting to take care of pets full time. I have a doggy door that goes out to my fenced in yard and My whole family will give lots of love to your pet
“From start to finish I was absolutely amazed by the kindness and professionalism that I was shown! I always appreciate when my pup can do a meet and greet so I can have the peace of mind knowing he is comfortable in the environment I am leaving him in. During the stay I got pictures of how well my baby was doing. And when I had an unexpected trip to urgent care for my family member they were able to keep my pup happy for a bit longer than what was planned. He came home and crashed because he was so tired from his big play date! 10/10 would recommend!!”
About: I’ve been pet-sitting for friends and family over the past few years, and it’s become something I truly enjoy. Most pets warm up to me pretty quickly, and I enjoy giving them the attention, care, and love they deserve. I like to get dogs out for plenty of walks. I’ve found that regular exercise is one of the best ways to keep them calm, especially if they are anxious while you’re gone. Cats will get lots of petting and playtime as well. I know that leaving your pet in the care of someone new can be a leap of faith, so I’m happy to send plenty of pictures and updates. At the end of the day, I treat every pet like they’re my own and want you to feel confident they’re in good hands while you’re away. My routine is flexible and centered around each cat’s needs. I typically start the day by feeding them, giving any medications if needed, and spending a few minutes offering attention and affection if they’re in the mood. I know every cat has a different personality and routine, so I’m happy to follow whatever schedule they’re used to. Some cats love company and plenty of petting, while others prefer a quiet day and their own space. I’m comfortable with both and let each cat set the pace while making sure they’re well cared for and comfortable. I know that trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. I make it a priority to follow your instructions closely (a written list is extremely helpful), keep your cat’s routine as consistent as possible, and make sure they always have fresh food, water, and a clean litter box. I’m attentive to any changes in behavior and will communicate with you promptly if I notice anything concerning. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your cat is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every home with respect and always leave it just as I found it.
“June was awesome! My little guy doesn't stay many other places but home and my friends. I moved away from my friends and needed the occasional sitter. She is very communicative and friendly. Dexter can be a timid pup but she made him feel at home for the day! Thanks again!!”
“A true dog whisperer. When I needed to find a sitter last minute AJ made accommodations perfectly. He made my pup feel at home from the minute he introduced himself. Not to mention how attentive he was to my pups needs. He had so much fun and almost didnt want to leave. Thank you AJ you're the best.”
“As new puppy parents that have never used doggie daycare before - Carrie rested our minds at ease and did a great job acclimating Archie to the surroundings and the other dogs. He came home happy and exhausted! We will be back!”
“Ben is awesome! Super responsible, easy to communicate with and has extensive dog training experience. All of which means that we 100% trust him to take care of our dog and also provide enriching activities - leaving us with a tired and v happy dog at the end of the day!”
About: I've house and pet sit for friends & family for years, due to my size I can walk more than one big dog at a time. I'm a Lyft driver so pets and home can come first during my work week without any worries because I set my own schedule at Lyft. I will provide the exact rules that you leave for your home and pets and act as if I could be you the parents as much as I able while you're gone.
About: ***I will be out of state for the month of August. I will still be responding to requests but won't be available for in person meet and greets until early September. Stay cool everybody! Hello there! My name is Danielle and I would love to spend some time with your fur babies! I grew up with a bunch of pups running around (although I do not have any of my own now) and I have been sitting through Rover for over 8 years, so I have a lot of experience to bring to the table :) I have lots of experience with rescue pups (including any quirks that they may have because of this) as well as elderly pets who require extra attention, meds, specialized care, etc. I'm happy to work with you to provide the best care to your fur babies while I am watching them. I know different dogs and even different breeds can have wildly different needs and my goal is to keep them as calm and happy as possible while you are away. All my services are in your home only, including day care. Drop ins are for visits less than 1 hour (sometimes multiples per day), Day Care is longer visits (usually between 4-8 hours per day) but no overnights and housesitting is full time, 24 hour care including overnights. ***Rover has taken away full autonomy of our calendars. The Rover calendar only shows approx 80% of my housesitting availability. To see all available days (I update frequently), please look under "Availability" I freelance so I can work from home (aka right from your couch or home office.) As long as you can share your wifi password, I can be with them as needed. I can easily make sure I'm there to check in on them/work around their schedule. I'll most likely be with them more often than not during the day, and can stay with them all night as well. **Rover's housesitting calender only shows about 80% of my availability, below lists my full availability. I'll update regularly. If you're looking for something farther out/not listed, I'd love to hear from you! Available Housesitting Dates 2026 Sept 7-Sept 25th Oct 10-15th Oct 18-Oct 27th Nov 22-27th I will treat your pets and your home like it's my own. I will try my best to keep your fur babies on their normal, daily schedule. The only difference is that I would be the human doing the feeding, walking, snuggling, etc instead of the pet parent(s). I find this works best for most pets, and their parents, especially if there is any separation anxiety. During our meet and greet, I'll ask all about their daily schedule so I know how to best care for your fur babies during my stay. I work from home (aka right from your couch or home office), so I can be there with them most of the day and cater to their normal daily schedule :) Please be aware - during extreme temperature months, outside time (walks, etc) may be modified for everyone's health and safety. For example, in the winter/cold months, walks will primarily be done around mid day when it is warmest and during summer, walks would be done early or late to avoid the hottest times of the day. I am happy to discuss this with you during our meet and greet to come to an arrangement that works for everyone
“Andrea and Pumpkin were great! We were able to do a meet and greet with them a few days before my dogs dog day care stay, which was very much appreciated! Andrea provided updates and pictures throughout the day and was very accommodating for my dog. Thank you again Andrea!”

“Brooklyn is excellent with Eira, I always know I can trust her to treat her with all the love and care that we would! It is always a relief to have someone so reliable and trustworthy to help keep Eira happy and occupied when we are working!”
“Wyatt absolutely loves this time with Sheryl and looks forward to her knocking on the door! Very thankful and grateful for her time and help! She is courteous to my at home office hours and is always wonderful at picking Wyatt up and dropping him off without interrupting my day. She’s amazing!”
“Eric is way more than I expected. I haven't used others to walk my dog, but I just had major surgery and had no alternative. Callie anxiously awaits Eric's arrival and is so excited to go with him. It makes my heart sing. He clearly understands dogs.”
“Trina is an absolute professional. I never had to worry about her or my pet. I cannot say enough good words nor thank her enough. I highly recommend her and will call her immediately if I am ever in the area again.”
“Alissa did an AMAZING job with our pup Luna. She can be quite a handful but when we came home our girl was taking a long nap as she had 2 great walks around the lake. Alissa also accommodated to our needs of using codes to get into our apartment and unit along with booking a second walk last minute. :)”
“She was go great and patient with my two babies. They fell in love with her. I’m definitely going to be booking her again. I love that she sent me pictures and a review after every walk! thank you so so much.”
About: Hi! I am a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet mom with a home full of personalities - including 4 dogs (Great Dane puppy mixes, a Great Pyr mix, and a senior pittie who keeps things interesting) and 3 cats. Because of that, I am super comfortable with all sizes, breeds, and temperaments - from giant, high energy dogs, to tiny sensitive guys who need a little extra love, and even the occasional grumpy senior. I truly understand how important it is to keep pets in their normal routine while you're away and I have experience with training, medicine administration, and specialized diets as well as feeding schedules. My goal during every interaction with your babies is to make them as comfy as possible while maintaining their routine, and make them feel loved while their people are away. I am especially patient with shy, anxious, or older pets and always adjust my approach based on what they need. I also know how important communication is, so you will get updates and photos regularly! As a pet mom myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your babies with someone, so I make sure to treat every pet like they're my own! I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate most drop-in visits, feeding schedules, potty breaks, and pet care routines throughout the day. Since caring for my own pets is already a part of my daily routine, providing reliable and consistent care for other pets fits very naturally into my schedule. I care for every pet based on their individual needs and routine. I am used to managing multiple pets with different personalities, feeding schedules, diets, and energy levels. Safety, consistency and comfort are always my priority. For drop-in visits, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, fresh food & water, meds if needed, and love! I am happy to follow specific instructions closely. I am also open to pet sitting in my home for animals who are dog, cat and kid friendly. My home is very pet-centered, and I understand how important it is for animals to feel safe and cared for.
“Coral is a sweetheart and my pets loved her. She was flexible, respectful, responsive and available to walk Lucy at the last minute due to a change in our work schedules. And though that’s all I hired her for, she also paused to pet my kitties and share updates on them as well which was much appreciated during my long days at work. When the need arises again I will for sure ask her to come back.”
About: I am a dog lover and "mom" to two furballs, a peke-a-tzu and a sweet elderly rottie. I am an single mom and full-time work from home employee. I am available 7 days a week. I have twenty years of dog care experience and have rescued four different animals, two of which were elderly/special needs and have since passed over the rainbow bridge. My dog guests and parents love the attention I give each pooch and daily exercise with a pack walk. My dogs are trained on a variety of tricks and I love to give them a "job" to do with hide and seek the treat games. I look forward to meeting you and your pup's and taking care of all your boarding needs. I can stop every hour if needed because I have scattered meetings that typically last 30-60 minutes long. The schedule is very relaxed so I can be flexible to the pets' needs. I am a dedicated dog owner who approaches training with both strength and compassion, ensuring my pups always feel safe and loved. My dogs thrive on consistent routines that keep them happy, healthy, and well-balanced. Every day is filled with intentional care from structured training sessions to quiet moments that deepen the bond we share.
About: I’ve worked at a dog daycare/boarding facility and now train dogs for a living. I’ve had puppies, elderly, small, large, and disabled dogs. I have experience with large dogs as well as high energy (as I have a Malinois/shepard mix) and pulling on leash. I have pet sit prior to using rover and am determined to give your dog an experience to remember and for you too! I currently work part time as a nanny during the mornings and early afternoons (typically until 3:00–4:00 p.m.), but I’d still love the opportunity to work with you if we can find a schedule that fits both of our needs! I’m excited to help however I can, so please let me know if there’s a way we can make it work. I look forward to hearing from you! I will reply as frequently as possible and I am able to adjust my scheduling however a guest needs and I can provide my schedule and times I am available during the day! I Will ask, if possible, for a list as to any instruction, extra info, and anything I may need to know to help me make your pet happy! If your dog is friendly with others, and wouldn’t mind a playmate, I too have my own dog that I can bring as a playmate with your fluffy friend! I always make sure to check that there are no hazards when leaving your dog after the day and I always make sure to keep an eye on fences and kennels
About: I've taken care of a variety of dog breeds sense I was young as I grew up with dogs. From Saint Bernard's and Chows, to pomeranians and chihuahuas. I also have taken care of other animals such as cats, chickens, horses, turtles, lizards, and even a snake! I'm a student at the university during the afternoon, so during the morning and after 3pm I'm free to spend all the time needed with your furry friends to make them feel loved! I can stay as long as needed to make sure your pet is doing great. I will do everything I can to make sure any routine for your furry friend is kept in place while you're away. No food routine or ritual is too complex. More than willing to walk dogs and make sure they stretch their legs. Will always make sure the house is safe and untouched when I leave.
About: I have always been around animals, never in my life have I not had a dog. Growing up I volunteered at the local animal shelter walking, training and taking care of the animals there. Once I got my own car I started sitting for friends and family. As a massage therapist I took animal massage courses in school, I am very comfortable handling animals. I love being outdoors and active, I am very excited about being a dog walker. In my home we are very relaxed, allowing our pets lots of room and freedoms to play inside and outside in the fenced yard as well as lounge on the couches and pet beds. We don't use crates or keep animals separated unless instructed by their people, we like for the dogs to be together and play with eachother! That being said, we do have spare rooms for pets that have social anxieties. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to care for your pups! When I work I am home by noon to give potty breaks and lots of love and attention! My back yard is a nice fenced yard for safe play time and potty breaks. I have 2 dogs to keep your furbaby company during their stay. Crates are available if preferred for alone time or night time.
About: I’ve been the go to pet sitter for my friends for 5 years now, including full week house and pet sitting. Love playing and walks! I currently work from home! So as long as I am not tied up with a meeting at work I’m free to take some time out of my day to help out! I have no probably going to clients location to walk animals or visiting them in their home! Happy to keep animals in their recognized locations!
About: Hello, my name is May, and I use any pronouns. I grew up taking care of animals, and I have wanted to care, protect, treat, and defend them since I could breathe. I am a certified dog trainer and I have multiple years of professional animal care experience outside of Rover. My interests are medicine, welfare, conservation, education, and ecology. My skills are grooming, lodging, daycare, training, education, and medical care. I have even worked with dogs from k9 and search & rescue teams. I have experience caring for dog, cat, fish, turtle, chicken, guinea pig, lizard, and bird. I am a cat mother and fingers crossed a dog mom someday soon as well. I can take care of your pets/companion animals from any age, breed, or size. You name it, and I will be there for them. Common questions: What if my companion animal has a medical condition? You let me know what they need, and I can accommodate them, even if they have behavioral struggles. I am patient, understanding, and gentle. What if they need medications? No need to worry. I can administer medications via subcutaneous, transdermal, oral pills or liquids, or even instramuscular per perscription instructions. What if they are high energy? High energy animals have high activity levels, which means they require frequent exercise and attention. To accomodate these needs, I can be available for multiple daily visits, walk them, and even curate a training plan for them. Your animal family members deserve the best. They deserve a professional. Not just someone who loves them, but one who you can trust to care for them in every capacity while you're away in safe hands. My skills: ✨️ Administering medications (via any route; Oral liquid or pill, IM, SQ, Transdermal) ✨️ Grooming/Bathing ✨️ Nail Trims ✨️ Meal Prep & Feeding ✨️ Animal Behavior ✨️ Training ✨️ Medical Care Rover is something I fit into my life whenever I can while I work & continue education. Some seasons are busier than others, and that's normal. Companion Care is already a part of my daily life, so these requests come as a breeze for me. I try to update my calender monthly, but if things don't look right, if your other sitter isn't available, or if you just need someone ASAP, you are always free to message me any time in the app. I try to reply as soon as possible, but sometimes I don't recieve notifications, so it may take me a few hours to reply in some instances. My calender should reflect my un-availability at minimum. If you have any questions, please message me as I am flexible and will accommodate where possible. Keeping things fear-free as much as possible is a priority for me. I like to keep things calm, relaxing, and easy or neutral. When I meet them for the first time during the meet & greet, I wait for them to come up to me. It's what they are comfortable with. This helps everyone establish trust and familiarity. My hope is that I can be your go to whenever you need companion care. Sometimes, I use miracle tones to help with fear, it is soothing and calming for all. Wildlife or "Pet" TV is a great option to add to their environment while you are away as it helps them feel less alone and gives them something to interact with. I like to stick to a rhythm or routine. As I enter their palace, I introduce myself gently by using a high pitched soft tone and a treat. Then, I let them sniff me out before they welcome me through. Any grievances? No siree! Next, I like to start feedings and medications after activities. But, I take it at their pace. Afterwards, I will take care of cleaning & notes before my departure from their palace. What I value during my bookings: 💖Trust/Familiarity (Completing the Meet&Greet & sticking to a rhythm or routine) 💖Safety (Keeping doors locked) 💖Compassion (Always stay kind, patient & considerate) 💖Comfort (Temperature in the home, toys, beds) 💖Respect (Their boundaries and space) 💖Quality care/Ensuring all goals are met (Fulfilling all visit requirements) I will not force anything.
About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior animals I understand that every animal has unique needs, so safety is always my top priority. Making sure pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while their people are away. I’m attentive to details and I always provide regular updates with photos so you’ll feel connected and reassured. My schedule is flexible and very open currently as I'm new to the area and still looking for work. Rover allows me the opportunity to take my time as I do and spend time in various areas as I get to know the community. I’m available for morning, daytime, and evening visits, as well as weekends and most holidays. Whether you need regular drop ins, daily walks, or overnight care, I’ll make sure your pets gets attention while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I don’t host animals currently but I provide reliable overnight stays in your pet’s familiar environment. This way, they can stick to their normal routines and feel secure while you’re away. I’m respectful of your space, and committed to following your instructions. You can count on regular updates so you always know how your pets are doing.
About: I moved to Johnstown Farms last February and have absolutely fallen in love with the community here. I bring many years of experience caring for both cats and dogs—including my own—so I understand how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pets while you’re away. My two cats, Tigerlily (13) and Tanner (10), are a big part of my life and have been with me since they were young. Tigerlily was rescued from a college parking lot and is a total princess who loves sunbathing and will absolutely let you know when she wants treats or the blinds opened so she can soak up the sun. Tanner is my “foster fail,” adopted after I took in her and her siblings from a difficult situation involving stray cats being poisoned in the neighborhood. She is very playful and rambunctious, but also one of the best cuddle buddies. I grew up with dogs and still have a beloved family dog who lives with my parents. I’m very active and enjoy taking dogs on long walks and making sure they get both exercise and enrichment. I also have experience with feral and unsocialized cats, so I’m comfortable working with a wide range of temperaments, routines, and needs. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate midday check-ins and sometimes last-minute bookings. I’m always happy to tailor my visits to your pet’s personality and routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to connect and meet you and your furry family members! Not only do I work from home so my schedule is quite flexible but I am also a morning person, so my day starts at 6am in the morning and typically includes 2 miles walk that I would be happy to share with a pup. I think its important not to leave pets unattended while playing in the yard (dogs) or to make sure they are supervised when playing with certain toys (cats).

“Yi Ling was great! She sent updates with pictures and we felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her. Would definitely recommend and will be using her again in the future.”
“Jessica was so good with our dogs. Her kids were very sweet and loved to play with them. She has a big yard for the dogs to run around and lots of places for them to hang out or get cuddles. Jessica was very quick to respond while we were away, and we felt very comfortable leaving them with her family. She was very understanding and was a lifesaver when we had a last minute change of holiday plans.”
“Sidney was great, Ludwig seemed to love his stay. There was some mixup with our booked dates and she was very kind and accommodating. Would love to book her again.”
“Kimberly was highly communicative, flexible, and showed my pup the love and care that we give her at home. I really appreciated the text updates and pictures and will certainly be boarding with her again. It was a great experience all around.”
“This was our second time having Amber watch our dog. Olive had a fantastic time, and our dog was having some tummy issues during her stay which Amber was very helpful with and gracious about. Amber is always flexible and our dog loves staying with her!”
“This is the second time our dog has stayed with Darcy and he ran right into the house. He's very comfortable there. Darcy takes very cute pictures and sends them them a while away, which I appreciate. Thank you for being so flexible as well!”
“I look forward to taking Finn to Ben’s when we go out of town. Finn loves playing with his two dogs, especially his 1-year-old energetic pup with amazing agility! Ben walks Finn along the lakes. We can tell he loves all kinds of dogs and that this is a passion for him, not just a job! He sends photos that warm our hearts. We will continue to bring Finn to Ben for his care of Finn!”
“Ryan and Lorien were wonderful with our Charlie dog. Their sweet dog even shared their toy with him. Charlie was given lots of love and attention. We felt at ease having him there while on our vacation. Would definitely book with them again. Thanks!”
“Joni is an exceptional sitter who deserves 'Star' status! From our first meeting, her dedication was clear—she even took detailed notes to ensure Pepper’s needs were met. Pepper had a wonderful time with her dog, Tilly, who is incredibly sweet. Beyond her care for the animals, Joni was 100% responsive and remarkably gracious when I made a mistake with my booking. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, but most of my pet care experience comes from my own dog, Tuna. I adopted Tuna in 2014, when he was a year old, and he lived with me for 12 wonderful years until he crossed the rainbow bridge in October 2025. I am becoming a Rover sitter to bring the companionship of a dog back into my life while offering other pet parents the highest level of dedicated care. Through caring for Tuna and my family's dogs over the years, I have extensive experience with all types of dogs, including highly active young adults and seniors requiring specialized care. As a former pet parent, I understand how stressful it is to leave your dog with someone else and trust they will be cared for as you would. I aim to ease that stress with loving, supportive, and dedicated care. I have included more detailed information on my experience below. Senior care: -Experienced in administering daily oral medications and supplements while managing strict dosing schedules. -Familiar with guiding dogs through physical therapy exercises, managing arthritis, and accommodating the slower pace of aging pets. -Experienced in managing complex nutritional needs, including transition care, dehydrated food, and preparing fresh meals from scratch. -Ability to manage specialized routines, including transporting pets to appointments such as veterinary acupuncture or maintaining routines for such appointments. Behavioral needs: -Experienced caring for a highly reactive dog with a history of abuse. -Familiar with reading dog body language, avoiding triggers during walks, and managing anxious or fearful dogs. -Skilled at establishing a calm, low-stress environment for dogs who need extra time to warm up to new people or spaces. Exercise needs: -Well-versed in safely handling dogs while hiking, camping, and swimming in the Colorado outdoors. -Accustomed to providing multiple structured walks a day, tailored to your dog's energy level. Hygiene needs: -Routine experience with monthly bathing, nail trimming, and ear cleaning. I work almost entirely from home Monday through Friday (9 a.m. to 5 p.m.). While I keep regular work hours, my job offers excellent flexibility. This means your pup won't be left alone; I am readily available throughout the day for potty breaks, neighborhood walks, and dedicated playtime. If your pet requires a specific medication schedule, multiple feedings a day, or extra companionship while you are away, I can seamlessly integrate their routine into my workday. When your pet is with me, they are treated like family. I aim to provide a safe, structured, and deeply affectionate environment so you can have total peace of mind. If they are used to cuddling on the couch or sleeping in bed, they are more than welcome to do so. However, I am happy to enforce any house rules and boundaries you already have in place. Overall, I maintain a very clean, organized, and pet-proofed home. All trash cans have lids, plants are kept out of reach, and miscellaneous items are never left out where a dog can reach them. I live in a third-floor apartment with no elevator. My home is best suited for dogs who are fully mobile or small enough to be easily carried, as we will need to navigate two flights of stairs for every outing. My apartment complex features a private dog park and plenty of walking paths. I also have access to a community doggy bathing station, which is perfect if your dog requires bathing while in my care.
“Jeremy and Jamie took great care of our big babies while we were out of town! We were nervous since we had never left our pups with someone before, but Jeremy and Jamie were the best possible people!! We received photos and videos of our dogs having the best time and settling in over their stay. I had complete confidence in our kiddos being taken care of the way they should have and our minds were at ease. Thank you so much again!”
“We left our dog with Ashlan for 10 days and our dog did so well. Ashlan gave us regular updates, gave her love, and took her on walks. Upon meeting Ashlan you can immediately tell she is a true animal lover. I will be using Ashlan every time we go out of town!”
About: I’ve been pet-sitting for friends and family over the past few years, and it’s become something I truly enjoy. Most pets warm up to me pretty quickly, and I enjoy giving them the attention, care, and love they deserve. I like to get dogs out for plenty of walks. I’ve found that regular exercise is one of the best ways to keep them calm, especially if they are anxious while you’re gone. Cats will get lots of petting and playtime as well. I know that leaving your pet in the care of someone new can be a leap of faith, so I’m happy to send plenty of pictures and updates. At the end of the day, I treat every pet like they’re my own and want you to feel confident they’re in good hands while you’re away. My routine is flexible and centered around each cat’s needs. I typically start the day by feeding them, giving any medications if needed, and spending a few minutes offering attention and affection if they’re in the mood. I know every cat has a different personality and routine, so I’m happy to follow whatever schedule they’re used to. Some cats love company and plenty of petting, while others prefer a quiet day and their own space. I’m comfortable with both and let each cat set the pace while making sure they’re well cared for and comfortable. I know that trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. I make it a priority to follow your instructions closely (a written list is extremely helpful), keep your cat’s routine as consistent as possible, and make sure they always have fresh food, water, and a clean litter box. I’m attentive to any changes in behavior and will communicate with you promptly if I notice anything concerning. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your cat is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every home with respect and always leave it just as I found it.
“Becky was a great sitter and Reggie came home well-loved although a bit mad at us for leaving him. 🙃 she asked questions if she wasn’t sure about how he would handle a situation and sent lots of pix. We would highly recommend.”
“Our pup had the best time with Ashley and Jeremy. They were incredibly responsive and flexible. I received multiple pictures setting our minds at ease that our dog was being well taken care of and socialized! Would absolutely leave our dog with Ashley and Jeremy again.”
“Brittany is a wonderful dog sitter! My Sonny is a senior Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and he was treated like a king! Brittany took great care of Sonny and he looked so happy being with Wookie, Brittany's senior dog. She also sent me great photos while I was traveling so I could see what they were up to. I travel several times a year and I am so glad to find someone I can trust with my old man! I am already booking Brittany for my next adventure!”
“Kristina provided a warm and caring environment for Mozart. She was receptive to his current dietary needs and was in touch frequently. Kristina's 2 dogs were friendly and easy going.”
“Heather did an amazing job with our standard schnauzer. If you know the breed, you know they can be a bit difficult. He loved staying with her and becoming a part of her pack. Heather's communication and attention to detail put all of my fears at ease. It was the first time leaving him and I was a bit worried.”
