“Georgia was so wonderful with our dogs. She took such great care understanding & accommodating their individual needs and behaviors. I would not hesitate in asking Georgia to watch Rosie & Daisy again. It’s nice being able to relax while away, knowing they’re in her care. The picture & video updates were great as well!”
“Fred and Kim have the perfect home away from home for your pup. They took Bailey on several walks a day, she had a comfortable bed to sleep in and plenty of space to move around the house and garden. They sent daily photos and updates, and were super friendly and accommodating. We'll be booking again!”
“Maggie was great with our little one! So kind, quick to respond, and caring. We really appreciated her love for dogs and her enthusiasm to care for our fur baby, highly recommend!”
“salmon had a great time at Madeline’s, she got her out to enjoy the snow and sent us lots of updates. Madeline clearly cares a lot and is a great sitter.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets my entire life, from volunteering at animal shelters to eventually managing one, I have such a passion for animal wellness. If you are visiting Boulder and need day care for your dog while you take on a challenging hike, attend an event, I’m your pets home-away-from-home. I can give meds to pets, care for any special needs they have and work with high energy or “difficult” pets. I love them all, from hyper mouthy puppies to needy seniors! Our backyard is a 1/2 acre completely privacy fenced in so the pups will get plenty of exercise in addition to daily walks! I'm also an avid runner and am happy to accommodate daily runs if needed. I’m currently a part-time data scientist exploring new employment opportunities with an incredible passion for pets. I’ve previously managed an Animal Shelter and trained volunteers on both feline and canine behavior. I am a foster for Longmont Humane Society and am a rescue mom to three cats and two dogs. I have a half acre privacy fenced backyard for pets that visit. I have a large SUV for transporting pets that want an adventure or need daycare pet sitting.
“This was my first Rover experience so I was a little nervous to leave Indie with someone new (admittedly, I'm a rather needy pet parent - oops! :) ) Della was so thorough in explanation her daily routine with doggie visitors during our meet and greet a local park. Indie is a pretty shy with new people, and Della completely respected Indie's pace to earn her trust. Della has a radiantly warm and positive energy. Her calm confidence and compassion helped put both Indie and me at ease for her first overnight sleepover party. I received plenty of photos of Indie joyfully leaping around the park with the other doggie guests - and very prompt responses - which I so appreciate. Della somehow even captured a photo Indie with her floppy ears completely airborne as she ran around with other dogs - which made me laugh and is now my phone wallpaper. When I went to pick her up the next morning, her sweet daughter Uma parted with her with plenty of hugs and kisses. What a sweet family Indie is lucky to reside with when I'm out of town. We're lucky to have found Della & Uma!”
“Emily took wonderful care of our pup Mara. We reached out very last minute for a weekend sitting request, and Emily even found time to meet us for a meet and greet the day before we dropped Mara off. She sent regular updates on how Mara was doing, and she was clearly having a great time with her, Emily’s dog Osito, and Emily’s son. Would 100% book with Emily again!”
“Aubrey is amazing and very helpful. Fen is very enthusiastic to be around her and her pets. She has a fenced yard and plenty of room for dogs to run around and play. She was able to pick Fen up and drop him off. I am also rebooking her over Christmas!”
“Sophia was great!! Helped us out by taking care of our pup jojo on our wedding night. We knew he was in great hands and could let loose without any stress. Will definitely book with her again. Her dog Ziggy is a sweetheart and got along with ours great :)”
“Brooke took such good care of Milo on a last minute notice! She is super responsive and we were able to work out scheduling smoothly. Milo had a great time with her!”
“Barbara takes such great care of our pup, keeping her very active and loving on her a lot. I appreciate the pictures and updates each evening as well.”
“Katherine & Andrew were so great and I hope to hire them again. They took my dog on a bunch of adventures and took great care of her. Lots of great pictures and communication throughout the week. They also picked her up and dropped her off, which was a big help. I’ll definitely be recommending them to my neighbors and friends nearby.”
“Joann did a great job watching my “senior” golden retriever for 4 nights. She sent photos and great feedback each day. I felt super comfortable with Joann and will definitely use her again!”
“Addison was so accommodating, easy to communicate with and sweet with my dog! She sent updates and pictures, and took great care of her. Highly recommend and hope to book with her again in the future :)”
“Elise was wonderful! Our pup liked her immediately- she has a friendly, warm energy about her. She sent us updates and pics throughout the weekend. Elise is the kind of person you can trust will take great care of your baby :)”
“Delane was great! Sent photos to keep us updated and allowed us enjoy our vacation without the need of worrying about our pup! Would absolutely book her services again if she’d have us!!”
“Curtis goes above and beyond as a dogsitter! He went out of his way to help move my booking when my plans changed, took my dog on loads of walks and dog park trips that my dog absolutely loved, and gave me fantastic updates in the form of cute and incredibly thorough reports. Curtis has a great attention to detail and ensures that your dog gets excellent care. I can’t recommend Curtis enough!”
About: I absolutely love dogs. All dogs, period. I have a deep understanding of each dog's unique needs, quirks, and preferences, and I make sure to give a tailored experience that goes beyond routine tasks. I strive to create a home away from home for your dogs and make sure they are comfortable as well as you. I currently work in the early afternoons with two days off during the week with full availability. I am an early bird and can be there for your dog as early as 6:30am until about 12:00pm. Safe Space: Designate a specific area or room for the pet, providing them with a sense of security. Exercise and Playtime: Engage in regular play sessions and take your pet for walks or provide a secure outdoor space for them to explore. Social Interaction: Spend quality time with your pet to prevent loneliness and anxiety. Provide toys and enrichment activities to keep them mentally stimulated. Emergency Plan: Be prepared for emergencies by having a first aid kit and knowing the location of the nearest veterinary clinic.
“Rachel is not only an extraordinary pet sitter, but she is an extraordinary person. Kind and delightful. She was wonderful with Buddha Bear and sent us lots of "Pupdates" of their walks, feeding, and hanging out in the yard. I know Bear had a great time. It was a bit challenging for us because we moved to the area less than two weeks ago, so we know our dog may be a little anxious at the moment with the move and everything that comes with it. Rachael was so patient with him, and he stayed with her while she was working. I couldn't speak more highly of her. I know Buddha Bear really loved her.”

“Falecia did a great job with Bean! She was friendly, pleasant, communicative and honored some requests I made that might have made sitting a bit more of a hassle! Would happily recommend her services to others.”
About: I’ve had my own cat since I was 7, and I’ve spent the past 14 years caring for him. I started cat sitting neighbors pets when I was 12, and have continued to do so in my adulthood. I have experience with both indoor and outdoor cats, as I live with one currently. I have cared for both kittens and senior cats, and tend to be able to get shy cats to socialize. I’m used to all the dirty work that comes with cats, like cleaning litter boxes and cleaning up animals they may bring in.
“Addisen was a fantastic pet sitter for my little girl! She provided excellent communication throughout the stay and sent wonderful photos that gave me peace of mind and made my day. I could tell my pup was well cared for and happy. I would absolutely hire Addisen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have six years of professional experience caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Whether I’m helping a friend, family member, or client, I treat every pet with the same love and care I would give my own. I am certified in Dog and Cat First Aid through the American Red Cross. I have a flexible schedule and an active lifestyle, so pets in my care get plenty of attention and exercise throughout the day. I want your pet to feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed, so I’m always happy to follow their usual schedule to make their stay feel as close to home as possible. Your pet's safety and happiness always come first. I live right next to North Boulder Park, so there's plenty of space to play and explore! I have a 30ft long training leash so we can safely play fetch and frisbee together, and I also live right by some great trails if your dog enjoys hiking. While I adore hosting social dogs, my home is also a great environment for dogs who prefer to be the only pet in the home, since I accept only one client at a time. I'm happy to accommodate multiple dogs from the same household, though!
About: Hi there! I am a complete animal lover whether it's cats or dogs. I have had a cat for about 10 years now, taken care of her in various ways and I would be more than happy to take care of your cat and fill whatever needs they may have! I'm incredibly flexible and a caring person so your cat would be in good hands. I hope we can get in touch soon!

“Tonnie was great with our furry baby!! She was very communicative and punctual. She also took him out in our garden daily per our instructions and he really felt happy and full of spirit when we returned.”
“Olivia came through for me in an emergency. I was unable to meet her although I feel confident she did a wonderful job. I could tell she at my home as expected to feed my cat. From the outside camera I could tell my cat was responding well to her. I would 100% hire her again. Thank you for taking care of my home and my cat Olivia.”
“Diana took good care of my catson Benny and was great about communicating updates. I came home from my trip away to find him well and happy! I recommend her services for anyone with cat sitting needs.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, horses, and a variety of farm animals, giving me experience with pets of all sizes, personalities, and care needs. Although I’ve always cared for pets of friends and family, I am excited to now care for pets at a more professional level through Rover! I’ve had cats for basically my whole life, and can definitely say they are my favorite animals! As someone who has rescued many kittens from the street, I feel confident in caring for kitties of all ages and health requirements!! When your pet is with me, they’ll be treated like family. I believe every animal deserves patience, attention, and plenty of love, and I care for every pet as if they were my own.
“Sofia was wonderful! She sent us lots of photos of the kitties while we were out of state which kept our minds at ease. She’s incredibly caring, kind and we will definitely be booking her again :)”
“Rikku was great! He got to know our cat Boots quickly and boots warmed right up to him. When we got home boots seemed happy and comfortable. Would recommend Rikku!”
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, chickens, and bunnies for the past ten years! I have experiencing taking care of animals while house sitting for long stretches of time. I love getting outside, walking, and running with dogs! I am reliable, gentle, and love getting to share new connections with animals. It would be so great to take care of your animal babies! I'm currently in grad school but have significant room for walking, dropping in, and overnight stays. My schedule is mostly busy during the days on Tuesday and Thursday, but I have time in the morning, evening, and afternoons. I stick to what each owner/parent prefers. As for my dog, he is really good about recall so we are able to let him run around the backyard without fencing. When we walk on trail he is mostly on leash unless we are in the backcountry. Again, I stick to what each owner prefers for their animal baby!
About: I started dog sitting for my neighbors when I was 12. My family got 2 dogs when I entered high school and I was the main care giver. Now that I am living somewhere that does not allow dogs, I love the opportunity of getting to care for other dogs and treat them as my own family. I work from home 3 days a week (M, T, F) so your dogs will have full access to me those days! If your home has WiFi and your dogs need more consistent attention, I'm comfortable working from there as long as you are too. Overall, my job is pretty flexible and I am available for midday walks, etc. I treat all dogs as if they were my own. Having grown up with one dog who was NOT and one who WAS all cuddles 24/7, I totally understand when dogs need some time and space to get used to a new person. I will meet your dog wherever it is at with their personality and make sure we both feel safe in our environment and have a good time, whatever that means for your dog.
“Tara was super helpful and followed all instructions for my kitty. Tara mentioned she has experience with cats, which is extremely comforting as a cat person! When meeting, Tara asked for details I wouldn’t have even thought of and was very thorough. My cat and I are both thrilled with Tara’s service and would definitely recommend!”

“Jacky was AMAZING with Mecum, I swear he had the best night of his life. She was super attentive to his needs and brought him for many fun activities. Best Rover person I’ve ever met!!! I’m so grateful I met her and can’t wait for future trips for her to hang out with him! :) he moved right in and loved it. Thank you, Jacky! She also sent me frequent updates throughout the night and sent pictures/ videos. You’re the best, Jacky!!!!”
“Georgia was great! My nervous pup had a good time and was relaxed and happy when I picked her up. Communication was fast and clear, and I received an update mid-day.”
“Gus LOVED his time here. He got to play all day and every picture looked like the happiest guy on the block! It was also evident how much he loved it when I picked him up.. he didn’t want to leave! The only time he does that is with his foster mom. I would trust them any other time as they clearly made a paradise for my boy. Also their dog is so sweet and clearly a happy pup who loves to play. Last, great communication throughout the day!! Thank you again, Jessica!”
“Christine took great care of our dog. Lots of photo updates, walks, playing, and good communication before and throughout the day. Would definitely recommend and book again!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and got one of my own as soon as I could. I love dogs and will treat yours as I would my own. We love to walk, hike, take the dogs swimming and fishing. My dog, Willie, is a sweet heart and will keep your dog company! Thanks for considering us and let us know if you have any questions! My boyfriend and I live together and he works full time from home and I’m in the office 3 days a week. Your pets will be well taken care of as we have lots of time to tend to them We have a shared backyard that we use for our dog and a park less than 5 minutes walking. Our dog is treated just like another human in the house and we will do the same for yours.
“Bretta is incredible! She was so patient and caring for my pup during his stays with her. He was extremely anxious but she was able to help him feel secure while I was away. She did an excellent job of checking in and trying methods to help my dog. We were so lucky to find her and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly caring sitter and an overall quality stay!”
About: I’m active, work from home, and a dog-lover. I have a flexible work from home schedule, so your pup gets consistent attention, frequent bathroom breaks, and never long stretches alone. I share my home with Mabel, my 4-year-old golden retriever. We're outside every day on local trails, dog-friendly hikes, and the dog park across the street. Mabel is friendly and welcoming to all pups. No yard, but Boulder is our backyard. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and I treat every pup like my own. Your dog will get personal attention, plenty of activity, and a flexible routine that works for them. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. Happy to coordinate with you to ensure your dog’s needs are met. Able to step out with your pup for bathroom breaks whenever needed.

About: I’ve always loved being around and caring for dogs! I’ve had a dog of my own for almost my whole life, who I care for on the daily. When a friend is in need of a dog sitter they come to me and I care for their pup like my own! I am home very often on a daily basis so I have lots of time to spend with your pet and care for their needs! This leaves plenty of time for play and attention. I have a big fenced in yard where the dog can run and play along with my energetic 4 year old dog. Your pet can be crated if needed/desired but is welcome on the furniture just like my dog!
About: Ive walked and sat off and on with wag for several years and enjoyed it with no issue. I was suggested this app instead while I live in boulder. Free most weekdays and some weekends. I am a private Chef and only work for events on random days. I will update my schedule as I have datesm I meet every pet where they are and offer a very calm and welcoming environment. Without worry of several people in and out or loud noises. Plenty of parks and trails to walk as well.
“Dakota and Kate took such wonderful care of Ultra! Their home is super pet-friendly, with a dog door leading to a big yard. They took her on a walk, and she loved making a new friend in their sweet dog, Arlo. We also really appreciated that they set up a meet & greet beforehand. It gave us all peace of mind that the dogs would get along. We’ll be booking with them again... soon!”
“Our dog Ollie is generally pretty anxious when we leave him away. With Rui, he calmed down really quickly and they had a great day! Rui provided updates and many pictures at the conclusion of Ollie’s stay”
“Barbara was great with Dilla! Lot's of updates/photos to let us know Dilla was in good hands. She is an experienced and intuitive sitter and dog mom. Her dog Mel was good with Dilla, as well. Our dog came home happy. Thank you!”
About: I’ve been dog sitting for a year for a 1-year-old, now 2 years old, lab puppy. I am offering walks, drop in visits, and day care. I mostly work from home as I finish up nursing school, so I am often free for care! I only work twice a week and will be free entirely for the next few months as I study for my NCLEX for nursing. Pet care would be a happy distraction and a great use of my free time! I always give 100% of my attention to the animals I care for and love taking them for walks and playing outside! I am always sure to bring a toy and make the animal feel as comfortable as possible with a new friend.
“Emitt is very nice and took care of our dog very well. Her dog is very friendly as well and gets along with my dog. She allowed my dog lying on her sofa and my dog was extremely relaxed. I would highly recommend her for anyone who needs dog sitting in Boulder.”
About: Hello! I’m a retired Special Education teacher. My passion is dogs and the care and training of dogs. When your furr baby is staying with me, she or he is my priority. I am patient, caring and truly want your furr baby to have a safe, engaging and fun time while in my care. I’d love to take your furr baby for walks and/ or give cuddles; as desired. I first became available on Rover in 2017, first working in California and now in Colorado. I work full-time at home and will give your sweet furr baby all the time, care and exercise he or she needs. I’m currently at home full-time. I have plenty of time for your furr baby Please schedule pickup & drop-off times between 7am - 9:30pm. Thank you. I have two dogs and two cats. One dog is a friendly, small-sized older dog. He is calm and will engage with your furr baby as much as they want. I also have a large breed female dog. She is sweet, curious and well-behaved. I have four available crates if you use crating. The cats have separate areas and mostly stay in their own room during dog boarding.
About: I have grown up with dogs all around and seen how much love and care they deserve. I know that not everyone has time to get them out as much as needed and I want to help keep as many pets happy as I can! Since moving to Boulder I have dog sat many times and I love how it gets me out of the house more than normal and gives me happiness like no other! Currently I am an online student so my schedule is very flexible! I am in the unique situation to put your pets needs at the top of the list and I want to take full advantage of that. When I am dog sitting or just watching a dog for few hours I make sure they have food when needed, I keep their water full and fresh, play with them, and give them plenty of love. I love going on walks with them, whether it be through the neighborhood or on a hike!
“Christine was fantastic and Lulu had a great time playing with Hondo! Lulu is a very anxious dog—Christine was understanding of her needs and Lulu warmed to her within just this first daycare visit. I’ll definitely be booking again and grateful to have another spot where I know Lu will be happy and wonderfully cared for.”

“Tonnie was so great! She showed care through taking initiative to ask me some questions and went above and beyond in feeding my dog bc I forgot to put his food out. All was excellent. Would have Tonnie again!”
About: I love dogs (and cats!) of all personalities and especially love being active with them, such as going on hikes or jogs, playing fetch, or simply hanging out at the park. I love getting to know each animal's unique personality and learning what makes them them! I am available outside of the following hours: 2-4:30pm Monday-Friday, 5:30-7pm Mondays and Thursdays, and 4-6pm on Wednesdays. Other than these times, I am free to be booked! I have a large, fenced in yard with no other pets, which is great if your pet has trouble around other animals. I also live very close to North Boulder park! And when I am caring for your animal at your home, I am mindful of private spaces and boundaries, and I always make sure to entirely clean up after myself.

“Sofia’s service impeccable. We needed a last minute booking which was accommodated (already incredibly helpful), and all of the walks were great. Thorough and clear communication and thoughtful pictures. Will absolutely work with her again.”
About: I love all animals like they’re my own! After volunteering for years with Guiding Eyes for the Blind in NY as a kennel assistant, puppy socializer, and dog groomer, I have found a passion for pet care! I have experience watching and caring for dogs, cats, birds, and small critters such as guinea pigs. I currently have my own beagle, but love to care for other pets too! I’m currently a graduate student with a part-time job. I have a pup of my own and love caring for other animals when given the chance! I’m excited to take care of pet’s in their own home by ensuring they are well fed and have enough water before leaving, keeping all doors and windows the same way I found them, and cleaning any messes made. For dog walking, I will keep the dog on a leash at all times and be able to keep up at any pace for the duration of the walk! Even running!
About: Hi there! All my life I have been an animal lover and for the last 8 years I have raised my own dog, and taken care of other dogs for families I used to babysit for. I can fit in any lifestyle your pet has, whether they are active or a stay-at-home. I can fit any accommodation as I work from home, love to exercise (so your dog would get plenty of it, if need be), and I'm incredibly flexible and will be normally free to help you more than not. At the same time, I raised my dog since she was a puppy so I do have experience with younger, more energetic dogs and overall I would simply love to help and treat your dogs like family. I hope we can talk soon! I'm super flexible and work from home at the moment so I basically can take care of your dogs whenever you may need it. I will certainly be more free for your dog rather than not! I will care for your pet in your home however you see fit. I do what is asked and can fit any accommodation whether your dog has a lot of needs, or simply needs a walk and some playtime. I'm happy to help however it may be!
About: I am respectful, kind, and trustworthy. Your pet(s)/household will be in safe, reliable hands with me. I have extensive experience with large dog breeds, too (grew up with Bernese Mountain Dogs). I believe in treating others’ animals and property as I’d want someone to treat mine. Does your household have a particular routine or preferences? Just let me know. I want you and your family to be as comfortable as possible. If you need oral or subcutaneous medications administered, I would love to help keep your loved ones in the best health possible. House sitting engagements will leave your property as if I was never there and your pets well loved and treated with the decency all living beings deserve. Currently a parent of a husky named Thomas and three cats named Tony, Calypso, and Tut. Cats and dogs- I’ve had one or both my entire life. I use positive reinforcement training on my own. I work a set schedule Monday-Friday, so they will have consistency/stability throughout the weekdays. On the weekends, I’ll be available to spend the entire day with your fuzzy family members. How I care for your pets is strongly influenced by what you share with me. Household rules like crating, furniture rules, and routines will all be discussed with you and then adhered to during my stay. I also offer to bring in the mail, take out the trash, water the plants, and feed the goldfish. You know, those little details that matter.
About: I was absolutely obsessed with my late bulldog and toy poodle. Raising them and spending time with them each day was so much fun and fulfilling. I have been dog sitting, cat sitting and house sitting since I was 12. All through high school and both of my college degrees I continued to dog sit. I'd feel lucky to be trusted to hang out with yours! I am extremely active and love when I can exercise with a pup. Hike? Neighborhood walk? Dog park? Sounds great! I work from home with great flexibility and have holidays off of work since I work in education. Let me know what type of schedule suits your fur baby best! I have a large backyard and a deck. Let me know how your dog best is accommodated. I've had dogs who needed to be in their crated in a new environment and others who wanted to sleep in my room or the couch. However is totally fine with me!
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with dogs, having grown up with them since birth. I’ve also frequently pet-sat for neighbors and friends, handling everything from walks to feeding and cleaning up. I love dogs so much and walk a lot every day and I would love to have a dog to walk as well! I am a senior at San Diego State and am a full-time student but I only go to campus Monday Wednesday and Friday! I have lots of free time in the mornings and late afternoons! When caring for a dog in a client's home, I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment. I maintain a routine that the dog is familiar with, ensuring their surroundings feel secure and stress-free. I follow any specific care instructions provided by the owner, keeping their home clean and the pet well-fed, exercised, and content. My goal is to create a great experience for both the dog and their owner, providing peace of mind that their pet is in good hands.
“Rikku was so kind and was able to accommodate a last minute walk for our pup! They were really communicative about pickup and drop off. And of course our dog had a blast! Thank you!”
About: I've taken care of both cats and dogs of all kinds for about ten years. I have also lived in a house that had five cats that I took care of!

I consider myself a reliable sitter that is attentive and loving to your pets. I am understanding of your pet's needs and I make sure they're getting the care that they need. I have experience with all dogs including senior dogs and puppies. I have lots of experience with cats, too, the gentle and sassy ones! I can go on daily walks and take pets to nearby dog parks.

I do not offer in home services. I care for pets in a loving and respectful way. I am willing to give the correct and appropriate care to your animal/s.
About: I always grew up with dogs and taking care of dogs. I always loved having an extra companion for x-country ski trips, hikes and runs. I’ve always found they make any activity more fulfilling whether it be hiking or grocery shopping as theyre just happy to be included. The first dog I ever watched on a regular basis was a french bulldog named Mr. Bigglesworth. He lives in Boston but we still keep in touch. I work from home so am around all day to hang out with and make sure you’re awesome dog or dogs feel comfortable while you’re away! I make sure all medications and potentially harmful household items or ingredients (grapes are poisonous is that random?) are locked away or placed in our pantry out of a dogs reach.

“Georgia was so wonderful with our dogs. She took such great care understanding & accommodating their individual needs and behaviors. I would not hesitate in asking Georgia to watch Rosie & Daisy again. It’s nice being able to relax while away, knowing they’re in her care. The picture & video updates were great as well!”
“Fred and Kim have the perfect home away from home for your pup. They took Bailey on several walks a day, she had a comfortable bed to sleep in and plenty of space to move around the house and garden. They sent daily photos and updates, and were super friendly and accommodating. We'll be booking again!”
“salmon had a great time at Madeline’s, she got her out to enjoy the snow and sent us lots of updates. Madeline clearly cares a lot and is a great sitter.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets my entire life, from volunteering at animal shelters to eventually managing one, I have such a passion for animal wellness. If you are visiting Boulder and need day care for your dog while you take on a challenging hike, attend an event, I’m your pets home-away-from-home. I can give meds to pets, care for any special needs they have and work with high energy or “difficult” pets. I love them all, from hyper mouthy puppies to needy seniors! Our backyard is a 1/2 acre completely privacy fenced in so the pups will get plenty of exercise in addition to daily walks! I'm also an avid runner and am happy to accommodate daily runs if needed. I’m currently a part-time data scientist exploring new employment opportunities with an incredible passion for pets. I’ve previously managed an Animal Shelter and trained volunteers on both feline and canine behavior. I am a foster for Longmont Humane Society and am a rescue mom to three cats and two dogs. I have a half acre privacy fenced backyard for pets that visit. I have a large SUV for transporting pets that want an adventure or need daycare pet sitting.
“This was my first Rover experience so I was a little nervous to leave Indie with someone new (admittedly, I'm a rather needy pet parent - oops! :) ) Della was so thorough in explanation her daily routine with doggie visitors during our meet and greet a local park. Indie is a pretty shy with new people, and Della completely respected Indie's pace to earn her trust. Della has a radiantly warm and positive energy. Her calm confidence and compassion helped put both Indie and me at ease for her first overnight sleepover party. I received plenty of photos of Indie joyfully leaping around the park with the other doggie guests - and very prompt responses - which I so appreciate. Della somehow even captured a photo Indie with her floppy ears completely airborne as she ran around with other dogs - which made me laugh and is now my phone wallpaper. When I went to pick her up the next morning, her sweet daughter Uma parted with her with plenty of hugs and kisses. What a sweet family Indie is lucky to reside with when I'm out of town. We're lucky to have found Della & Uma!”
“Aubrey is amazing and very helpful. Fen is very enthusiastic to be around her and her pets. She has a fenced yard and plenty of room for dogs to run around and play. She was able to pick Fen up and drop him off. I am also rebooking her over Christmas!”
“Barbara takes such great care of our pup, keeping her very active and loving on her a lot. I appreciate the pictures and updates each evening as well.”
“Katherine & Andrew were so great and I hope to hire them again. They took my dog on a bunch of adventures and took great care of her. Lots of great pictures and communication throughout the week. They also picked her up and dropped her off, which was a big help. I’ll definitely be recommending them to my neighbors and friends nearby.”
“Joann did a great job watching my “senior” golden retriever for 4 nights. She sent photos and great feedback each day. I felt super comfortable with Joann and will definitely use her again!”
“Elise was wonderful! Our pup liked her immediately- she has a friendly, warm energy about her. She sent us updates and pics throughout the weekend. Elise is the kind of person you can trust will take great care of your baby :)”
About: I absolutely love dogs. All dogs, period. I have a deep understanding of each dog's unique needs, quirks, and preferences, and I make sure to give a tailored experience that goes beyond routine tasks. I strive to create a home away from home for your dogs and make sure they are comfortable as well as you. I currently work in the early afternoons with two days off during the week with full availability. I am an early bird and can be there for your dog as early as 6:30am until about 12:00pm. Safe Space: Designate a specific area or room for the pet, providing them with a sense of security. Exercise and Playtime: Engage in regular play sessions and take your pet for walks or provide a secure outdoor space for them to explore. Social Interaction: Spend quality time with your pet to prevent loneliness and anxiety. Provide toys and enrichment activities to keep them mentally stimulated. Emergency Plan: Be prepared for emergencies by having a first aid kit and knowing the location of the nearest veterinary clinic.
“Rachel is not only an extraordinary pet sitter, but she is an extraordinary person. Kind and delightful. She was wonderful with Buddha Bear and sent us lots of "Pupdates" of their walks, feeding, and hanging out in the yard. I know Bear had a great time. It was a bit challenging for us because we moved to the area less than two weeks ago, so we know our dog may be a little anxious at the moment with the move and everything that comes with it. Rachael was so patient with him, and he stayed with her while she was working. I couldn't speak more highly of her. I know Buddha Bear really loved her.”
“Jessica and Sophie were wonderful watching our pup! We were sent many pictures and our dog had a great time playing with Sophie. He was well cared for and is now exhausted. Highly recommend!”
“Kristina was VERY responsive and great with our big old Riley boy. He came home happy and sleepy, like a dog post-vacation should be! We also got a ton of pictures over the weekend of Riley living his best life. Thanks for helping us out, Kristina!”
“Highly recommend Alex and Jeff. Responsive and on point with all communications. Great yard and set up. Felt really good about leaving our pup with them.”
“I highly recommend Tigran. He was a great communicator before and during the sit. I can tell he gave my dogs lots of love and attention. :) I really appreciated his always quick responses and updates.”
“Natalie was awesome! She went above and beyond to make sure our dog ate his food and was comfortable during his stay. Natalie was very communicative and sent multiple amazing pictures everyday! Natalie is super flexible with pick up and drop off times. We can’t wait to have Natalie Rover for us again!”
