“Repeat customer! We love Joan...she pays such excellent attention to Sawyer and gives him care that goes above and beyond what you would ever expect! Three walks daily around the beautiful Fort Collins area...treats, playmates and pure spoiling! You can tell that Joan loves what she does - an excellent communicator...sends updates, photos and videos daily. We cannot thank her enough for the great care of Sawyer during his stays - she is the best!”
“Demetria and Jonathan took such great care of Ham and we couldn’t be more grateful! He was given lots of love, pets, walks, and time laying around in their fenced backyard (which he LOVES to do). Truly felt that they treated him like he was one of their own and that’s the most you can hope for from a dog sitter. He barely wanted to even leave when we came to pick him up 😂 that shows you how kind they were to him!”
“Everything about Koda’s stay with Corinne was perfect. She accommodated us stopping by a couple times to pick up Koda for hikes (since dogs weren’t allowed at our condo). She even offered to pick him up once to let us avoid the construction traffic back to her house. She did a great job feeding Koda his antibiotics and eye drops too. Corinne was very capable with our independent Great Pyrenees and he clearly loved staying with Corinne and her son. We will not hesitate to book with her out again if/when we are ever back in the area with Koda and can’t have him stay with us. Thank you so much Corinne!!!”
“Great and quick communication! Very trustworthy! You can tell they have a real passion for animals. I felt very comfortable leaving Ajax with Jana and Colten a second time. Always my first choice for any boarding needs!”
“Bridget is incredible! She took excellent care of my high energy dog and send lots of updates. Bridget was very accommodating and flexible with my flight delays. Highly recommend!!”
“Sue did not shy away from watching our young puppy for 10 days. She sent us updates, worked to help her socialize, and dealt with puppy potty training accidents. We are very grateful for the care she provided!”
About: Hey, I'm Jason! Dogs have always been part of my life, and right now Peanut and I are holding down a home that's basically a dog's dream: a fenced yard, a quiet street, and the river and bike path just steps away for long walks and sniff-filled adventures. I offer boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, and doggy day care — with a flexible schedule, so I'm usually available whenever you need me. Here's what your pet can count on: Meals and meds on time, every time Real exercise — yard time plus trail walks by the river Photo/video updates so you always know they're doing great A calm, patient touch, especially for shy or nervous pups Your home and your pet treated with total respect I'd love to meet you both — reach out anytime! Services offered: Boarding, House Sitting, Drop-In Visits, Dog Walking, Doggy Day Care I'm home most of the day, every day, so pet care fits naturally into my routine rather than being squeezed in. When I'm not home, it's usually because I'm out on an adventure somewhere in the county — and dogs in my care are always welcome to tag along on those outings if they're up for it. This flexibility means consistent feeding times, regular walks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Since I'm home most of the day, pets in my care get consistent supervision rather than long stretches alone. At my place, there's a fully fenced yard for secure off-leash time, plus the river and bike path right outside for walks and adventures — and if I'm heading out into the county for the day, well-suited dogs are welcome to come along for the ride. In a client's home, I follow their routine closely, keep doors and gates secure, and treat the space with the same care I'd want for my own.
“Karen was amazing and our dog just loved her! We had some time to kill before a wedding and were able to pick him up and take him for a hike. When we went back to drop him back off after our hike, our dog was genuinely happy to see her, it was great. If I could rate more than 5 stars I would. Super cool and great experience.”
“John is an excellent dog sitter. Super communicative and he was so kind and caring with my dog. He was very diligent about getting my dog out for his walks and sent tons of pictures as well. Highly recommend and I will definitely be using John as a sitter again in the future.”
“Absolutely amazing! Cori was so welcoming and kind to my dogs. It was my first time using Rover and Cori was beyond helpful. I dropped my dogs off with her to undergo a surgery in Denver and Cori was absolutely fantastic with communication and posted updates on how much fun the dogs were having. It was really a huge stress taken off my shoulder. Her place seemed perfect for active dogs like mine with a good trail very close by.”
“Tracy has been amazing, I don't know what I would do without her! She has taking the absolute best care of Bell, she has been always responsive and always kept me updated. Tracy has made my out of town trips not as bad my making sure I know Bell is doing well and sending lots of pictures. I would highly recommend Tracy!”
“Amy was amazing with my little Sola. She (& her dog Jackson) made her feel at home with walks, cuddles, and attention, and, me at ease, it being my first time using Rover. I would highly recommend Amy to anyone and their dog.”
“Angela and her family were awesome! Very hospitable and cared for me dog very well! Could tell her felt very at home. Our dog loved their porch and big yard. Would come back to Angela’s great home!”
“Jenna took such good care of my dog, taking him on a great hike for the day I needed her to watch him (even with a short notice of needing her sitting help) Very happy and would recommend!”
“AJ was able to accommodate a last-minute request while we were in town for a wedding and I am so thankful that she could. It was our first time using Rover for Finn, and it was such a positive experience. She sent multiple videos of him playing with her pups. They got along so well! Highly recommend her if you’re in the Lancaster area. Our boy was exhausted from playing with his new friends all night. Thank you, AJ!”

“Tiffany was attentive and showed so much love for my cat while I was away for Christmas. My cat gets very stressed when Im gone and Tiffany did a great job bonding with him and feeding him on schedule every day!”
About: I've had cats since I could remember! My current apartment doesn't allow for pets, but I am extremely passionate about animals, and cats have always had a special place in my heart. Most experience with adopting & vaccinating strays or shelter cats & kittens, any age, taking care of them when sick or disabled, and ensuring they are happy and calm even during routine changes.
About: I realize that some cats will not love me, because I've owned and taken care of many, and some cats don't love anyone! So I don't take it personal. Fun fact: I once adopted 2 cats from a friend of mine.
About: I never truly appreciated the love and curiosity of a cat until I adopted mine from the shelter I volunteered at for 3 years. I was in charge of the cat rooms and would have to clean their cages daily, change food and water, administer meds when necessary, and show all my love and affection to those that wanted it (you know how some cats can be haha). My cat (Tyson) has now officially "adopted" my parents so I do not have any pets at the moment other than 2 dogs I share with my partner who live with him. I have multiple references from here in CO, MI, NJ, and The Netherlands, if needed.
“Esther was the perfect cat sitter! My kitty had kittens while I was away and she treated them like her own. She sent lots of photos/videos and went above and beyond what was expected. Highly recommend!”
“Savannah is fantastic! We have a big 90 lb German Shephard, and he isn't the best with meeting new people. He really just picks up your energy and will like you or not based on who you are. Within 2 minutes, Atticus was leaning up against Savannah and having her pet, hug, and play with him. He really looks forward to her visits. Savannah is also great for the humans too. She communicates clearly and promptly. She has been and continues to save my butt visiting Atticus and feeding lunches while I'm at work during the week. I love getting the photo updates and knowing that Atticus is loved and taken care of. I fully recommend Savannah for any pet sitting you need. Thank you Savannah!”
About: I have done tons of cat sitting since I was a teenager. The most rewarding experience I had was watching 2 elderly cats for a period of 6 months. I enjoyed getting to know the cats and provide them the best care and comfort while their family was out of town. I hope to do the same for your kitties!
About: Dogs are the best part of life! I will care for your babies like they’re my own! I have been doing this for awhile now & just love it. I work part time, but it is a remote position. I am very flexible throughout the day. I will be able to spend quality time with your animals! I am always respectful of other people’s homes. I am very reliable & trustworthy. I follow instructions to a tee. I try to be as professional as possible!
About: I have over 6 years of experience caring for cats of all ages, from playful kittens to senior cats. What sets me apart is my patience, attention to detail, and understanding that every cat has a unique personality and needs. My experience includes feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, administering basic medications when needed, and providing a calm and stress-free environment. I am comfortable caring for shy, independent, or highly social cats and always take the time to earn their trust. I treat every cat as if they were my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your feline friend is in good hands.
About: Need a sitter for your pets while you’re away? I provide loving pet sitting in summit county. Having a pup of my own, I understand that pets are family members. I will treat your loved one to outside excursions, play and attention so that you can have a worry-free adventure of your own! I am also available to house sit! Being a homeowner myself, I will treat your home with the utmost respect and care. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give your pet the attention he or she needs. I can bring your dog along on my daily trail runs if you’d like. Animals are on a leash at all times outside of confined spaces unless the owner specifies otherwise. On longer runs, I make sure dogs have access to water.
About: I cared for my own beloved cat Buddy for 17 years giving me first hand experience with every stage of a cat’s life. From active adult years to the unique needs of a senior cat. I learned the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding that every cat has their own personality and comfort level. I am comfortable caring for cats with different temperaments, including shy, independent, and senior cats. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, providing companionship on the cat’s terms, and paying attention to changes in behavior appetite and well being. As a sitter my goal is to help cats feel safe, comfortable and cared for while giving their owners peace of mind. I treat every cat as if it were my own and provide regular updates so you can relax while you’re away. I also work from home, which is great for kitties that need a little extra TLC.
About: Bill Murray says it best: “I’m suspicious of people who don’t like dogs, but I trust a dog when it doesn’t like a person.” I’m an all-around absolute animal lover but there’s just that something about dogs that I drool over. Dogs understand me and I understand them, similar to whisperer status. I’ve been known to greet dogs before I acknowledge its human(s) but I know none of you blame me for that! Trust that I’ll treat your pup as if it’s my own human child, and because I don’t have one of those, I’m extremely grateful and tickled for the opportunity to share my love with your best fur friend(s). I genuinely look forward to our time together! [Friendly reminder: Rover takes 20% out of the services and gas cost is high.]

“My senior boy Mr. Duff had a great time at Demetrias. She is clearly gentle, kind and so loving towards the dogs in her life. She showed the same care towards my own dog. She lives in a beautiful area with a great fenced in dog run. Thanks again Demetria!”
“Amanda was awesome. She took exception care of my dog Zelda. Even reached out to a vet tech when my pouch had stress symptoms. Amanda showed a deep concern and tenderness for Zelda’s stay with her. She is a devoted care sitter for dogs.”
About: I have had dogs growing up my whole life and currently have two toy poodles. They would be loved and cared for as my own! We are currently work from home so they have plenty of attention throughout the day. We have a fenced in backyard for some running space. If they are familiar with a doggy door we have one going in and out of the backyard. They will be treated as if they are our own. We love our dogs very much and treat them as our family members. They get love, care, and cuddles throughout the day. I currently have a fairly flexible schedule and will try to accommodate your needs. I’m happy to chat about a schedule that works for both of us! I’ll treat your pet like my own. I take my dogs on near daily walks. I love walking around neighborhoods or playing fetch. I’ll accommodate to the needs of your pet.
“Joan is awesome. We were in Breckenridge for 2 weeks and had 2 days that we couldn’t take our dog. She babysat all afternoon. Roger adored her. She is kind, prompt, and very sweet. I highly recommend her.”
“We booked this sitter last minute for a short, few-hour stay while we were in Breckenridge, and he was very quick to respond and easy to coordinate with. He also took our dog for a walk during the stay, which we really appreciated. Everything went smoothly, and it was a very convenient and stress-free experience for a same-day booking. We’d definitely book with him again when we’re in the area.”
About: I provide thoughtful, intuitive care for dogs of all personalities—whether they need outdoor adventure, calm companionship, or a little extra patience and understanding. Hi, I’m Cori — a professional, intuitive pet sitter recently relocated to Colorado from Chicago. In Chicago, I spent years deeply involved in dog rescue, rehabilitation, and fostering, along with providing boarding, daycare, house sitting, and in-home care. This hands-on experience gave me a strong foundation working with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and special needs—including anxious, reactive, and recovering pups who require extra patience and understanding. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely connect with. I have a natural ability to read behavior, build trust, and help pets feel safe and at ease in any environment. I offer a full range of services including dog walking, drop-in visits, daycare, boarding, and house sitting. Each visit is tailored to your pet’s unique needs and may include feeding, structured walks, playtime, enrichment, medication (if needed), and plenty of attention and care. Whether your dog prefers slow mornings and quiet companionship or thrives on outdoor adventures and long mountain walks, I meet them exactly where they are. Living in Colorado, I love providing active dogs with enriching exercise, while also maintaining a calm, grounded presence for those who need a gentler pace. As an added bonus, I also have extensive experience caring for small animals, including birds, guinea pigs, hamsters, and fish. I also hold a degree in horticulture, so I’m more than happy to care for houseplants while you’re away—keeping everything in your home healthy and thriving. Pet care is currently my full-time focus, which means I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate consistent, quality time and attention to each pet I care for. I’m reliable, communicative, and respectful of your routines, and I always provide regular updates with photos so you feel connected and at ease while you’re away.

Because pet care is my full-time focus, your pets get dedicated attention, consistent care, and plenty of love every day. Regular updates and photos are included so you feel connected while you’re away. MY HOME: Your dog will be staying in a comfortable two-bedroom condo in Copper Mountain, where their safety, routine, and overall well-being are my top priorities. I aim to make your dog’s experience feel as close to home as possible. I consistently reinforce your preferred rules and routines—whether that means furniture privileges, feeding schedules, or specific boundaries—so your pup has a seamless and stress-free stay. Dogs are welcome on the sofa if that’s something you allow, and I always create a calm, respectful environment tailored to their needs and personality. Daily care includes multiple walks, enrichment, and plenty of attention. For more active dogs, I’m happy to incorporate longer walks or hikes in the surrounding area. For lower-energy or senior dogs, I provide a slower, more relaxed pace with lots of comfort and companionship. I use positive reinforcement techniques to support good behavior and build trust, as I’ve found this to be the most effective and compassionate approach—especially for dogs adjusting to a new environment. Above all, I work closely with you to follow your dog’s usual schedule and preferences, ensuring a happy, balanced, and personalized experience for everyone involved. YOUR HOME: When caring for your pets in your home, their safety, routine, and comfort are my top priorities.

“Andrew was absolutely fantastic. We were in Breckenridge on a ski trip and needed someone to hang out with our pup while we skied. We reached out to Andrew and he responded within the hour. He was extremely timly with his responsive both before and during our dogs stay, working with us to potentially change around our pickup time. After we picked our pup up, she was nice and tired, and slept the whole car ride home! When we bring our pup back with us to Breck, we will definitely be reaching out to Andrew for his help!”
“She was so wonderful loving on and caring for Moose! He had such a fun day with Marina — they did several walks and hikes and he lived his best life! We got tons of updates - loved seeing how happy Moose was! 10/10 recommend!!!”
“Jana was great! On time arrival, great attitude and our two picky old dogs took to her right away. She sent a couple of photos during the day. Excellent experience.”
“Kristin and Scott were an amazing find on our family trip to Vail, able to give us peace of mind as they watched and provided excellent care for our dog Maple while we enjoyed the city and went to dine in. Absolutely recommend!”
“Alexa was really great to work with. We are always nervous to leave Bentley with anyone as he has some separation anxiety but Alexa was very patient with our sweet boy. She took the time to look up some things to help with his anxiety & that really meant so much to us. We would definitely book daycare with her again & recommend her to anyone looking for daycare.”

About: I grew up caring for animals on our farm and have always had a deep love for them. My own fur baby Moge passed away a few years ago. He was such a sweet nugget who gave me plenty of experience. I understand how to read animal’s behavior and listen for cues of distress/anxiety. I have experience with dogs of different sizes and breeds. I will treat your fur baby as if they were my own and will respect boundaries and rules that you have in place for their training and schedule. I currently have a flexible schedule and I am able to accommodate many different requests including weekday and weekend house sitting or over night stays. Safety first, during walks I prefer dogs to be on harnesses so as to limit the potential for injuries due to sudden jerks. I know first hand how some pups can get scared of oncoming traffic or excited by other wildlife, your pet’s health is my top concern. Walking should help their health not hurt it. I always allow pets to warm up to me when doing drop in visits and do my best to minimize stress during the visit. An owner’s absence can be confusing and stressful for the pet, it’s important they feel loved and safe. I will do everything I can to adhere to the boundaries you have in place with your pet such as jumping, treats, boundary areas in the home, ect. We can discuss these in detail prior to booking.
About: My family has rescued dogs since I was born! Breeds I've had or pet sitted for include Beagles, Bassets, Border Collies, Golden Retrievers, Cocker Spaniels, Weiners, Presa Canarios, Pit Bulls, Yorkies, Bernese Mountain Dogs, mixed breeds, dozens of cats and even a Vietnamese Pig! I adopted a Tabby cat from the shelter I volunteered at for 3 years (however, he has now "adopted" my parents and lives a very spoiled life in MI). Working at the shelter taught me how to be extra patient with certain breeds who came from unfortunate situations and/or environments. I cleaned their cages, took them for walks, administered meds, and showed them as much love as possible if they allowed it. I am a very affectionate person, love fur cuddles, and am not afraid to get dirty (I've had puppies and senior dogs) and have a natural ability to connect with animals. I am also very aware that some pets just need their personal space and have different needs, just like people (only better). I am an avid hiker and yogi and love including pets in any related activity I can so that they get to exercise and/or relax with me. I also am respectful that not all animals are created the same and am completely fine with just feeding them, walking them, and letting them have their own space if that's their preference. I work from home except for one day a week and do not have any dependents, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and lifestyle. I occasionally work a few hours on weekends at a food truck but can either bring your pet with me or they can hang for a few hours at my place. I also have reliable transportation (good 'ol Jeep) that can fit multiple pets of all shapes and sizes :-) I have an open floor plan apartment with a 110' ft. balcony overlooking Mt. Massive and live within one mile of two dog parks and within close distance to a safe, walkable downtown area. I also have a partner who owns property with a fenced yard and we share two rescue dogs (husky mix and shepherd mix) but they live with him. I have a pretty open floor plan and not a lot of "stuff," and am always aware of what items are around to put away so that the pet cannot get into anything. I have one set of stairs that go up to the apartment, and can also keep extra blankies, toys, and owner approved treats (if allowed) to make sure that the pet feels as safe and comfortable as possible.
“AJ was amazing! We were in town for a wedding and needed last minute help with our pups. She was very communicative, and made us feel comfortable from our initial meeting- there was no doubt our dogs were in good hands! She listened to what our dogs needed, and understood any special needs they may have. She sent pictures and videos and the dogs had the best time with her. She made our trip stress free when it came to the dogs, helping with transportation at pick up and drop off. I would highly recommend AJ and her family!”
About: I've been caring for dogs my entire life and bring a calm, attentive and intuitive approach to every dog i welcome into my home. I grew up caring for dogs and have owned both Golden Retrievers and a long-haired Dachshund, giving experience with a wide range of temperaments-from energetic and playful to gentle and sensitive. I provide a structured, safe and loving environment where dogs can feel at ease while maintaining their normal routines. I'm highly attentive to each dogs individual needs, whether it's exercise, companionship or simply a calm space to relax. Having hosted many dogs in my home and being a former dog owner looking for care over the years, I understand how important it is for both pets and owners to feel confident and comfortable. My 9-year-old son Bobby is kind, respectful and experienced with dogs adding to the warm, family style environment your dog will be a part of. Nestled in Red Cliff, our home offers a true mountain escape- endless fresh air, trails, a dogs dream playground I currently have full availability, I'm home throughout the day to provide loving, attentive care, regular walks, playtime and calm, consistent routine for every dog. Our home features a partially fenced yard, a peaceful low flow creek on the property and easy access to Red Cliffs dog friendly trails for leashed or unleashed adventures in the backcountry.
About: I have been taking care of a large variety of dogs for 20 years. From eight weeks old to 16 years old, from pugs to chows and pitbulls to 140 pound malamutes I have cared for them all. I can come by to walk and feed your best friends once a day or stay and cook them meals as per your request. I want to make sure you and your loved ones are as comfortable as possible while you are away. I do freelance work so I have pretty open availability. Making sure you're needs are met so you are comfortable is my top priority. If for some reason I can't meet all of your needs I will tell you before committing to something that doesn't fit my schedule or abilities. I am here for you. How I care for your pets and home is mostly dependent on your requests. I give medicine, food and exercise as requested. I can simply fill a food bowl, measure servings and even cook protein and veggies for your dogs if that is what you want. I am happy to keep you updated or send you pictures if you'd like. Walks are as far/long/plentiful as requested. I want to provide you with the comfort of knowing someone is there to care for your loved one as you would while you are away.

Dogs understand me and I understand them, similar to whisperer status. I’ve been known to greet dogs before I acknowledge its human(s) but I know none of you blame me for that! Trust that I’ll treat your pup as if it’s my own human child, and because I don’t have one of those, I’m extremely grateful and tickled for the opportunity to share my love with your best fur friend(s). I genuinely look forward to our time together! [Friendly reminder: Rover takes 20% out of the services and gas cost is high.]
About: I have had dogs ever since I could remember as a kid. I have experience sitting for small, big, old, young, and medically complex animals, also including cats and reptiles. I have administered medications/observed certain pets as well that needed a little extra attention. I really enjoy engaging your pets in the routines you have set for them and being silly with them to bring them out of their shells. I miss having my own dogs who have sadly passed from childhood and would love to spend time with them! I currently work early mornings, but can switch that around, Friday-Wednesday, usually off by 3pm. I would be able to house sit any of these days and do walks any morning and afternoon! I ensure I understand expectations from every owner on their routines and desires. I ensure I keep the place clean and give the animals the space, as well as attention, they need! I try my best to mimick what their usual routine is so when the owners get back, the transition is smooth and less anxiety stricken for both parties.
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. What sets me apart is the combination of patience, reliability, and genuine love I bring to every pet I care for. I treat each dog like part of my family and focus on creating a safe, calm, and fun environment while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate feeding times, walks, play sessions, potty breaks, and any special care instructions your pet may need. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while in my care. Whether it's a quick drop-in visit, daily walks, or overnight care, I am committed to keeping your pet happy, comfortable, and following their usual routine as closely as possible. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I make sure they are in a clean, secure, and stress-free environment. I carefully follow each pet owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and daily routines to help pets feel comfortable and maintain consistency. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality, needs, and preferences, ensuring they receive the appropriate level of attention, exercise, and affection. During walks, I always use secure leashes and remain attentive to my surroundings. In a client's home, I treat their space with respect and make sure their pet receives loving, reliable care while they are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I have been a long time animal owner including dogs and cats from all ages. I have experience with taking care of senior and disabled animals. I’m an all around animal person who also has experience with caring for exotic reptiles, amphibians, birds and aquatic animals. I am able cook for your companion(s) if they have a special diet and I am an attentive person when it comes to animals who need special attention or care. I have had dogs of all sizes and age throughout my life and also currently have dogs and cats of my own. I take dogs out to exercise twice a day and have a spacious home with animal friends for your companion’s stay. Please let me know if you are interested! Pet care is my top priority and only focus. I’m not balancing this with other jobs. Caring for animals is what I love and what I do full-time. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or drop-in visits, I plan my entire schedule around your pet’s needs to ensure they get consistent, attentive, and loving care every time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat every animal like family. I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. Whether that means sticking to their specific feeding schedule, giving them space to relax, or offering lots of playtime and snuggles. I maintain a calm, clean environment, pay close attention to behavior or mood changes, and communicate regularly with pet parents to ensure peace of mind. I’m happy to accommodate special needs, medications, or quirks. Whatever helps your pet feel happiest and most at home.

“Repeat customer! We love Joan...she pays such excellent attention to Sawyer and gives him care that goes above and beyond what you would ever expect! Three walks daily around the beautiful Fort Collins area...treats, playmates and pure spoiling! You can tell that Joan loves what she does - an excellent communicator...sends updates, photos and videos daily. We cannot thank her enough for the great care of Sawyer during his stays - she is the best!”
“Demetria and Jonathan took such great care of Ham and we couldn’t be more grateful! He was given lots of love, pets, walks, and time laying around in their fenced backyard (which he LOVES to do). Truly felt that they treated him like he was one of their own and that’s the most you can hope for from a dog sitter. He barely wanted to even leave when we came to pick him up 😂 that shows you how kind they were to him!”
“Everything about Koda’s stay with Corinne was perfect. She accommodated us stopping by a couple times to pick up Koda for hikes (since dogs weren’t allowed at our condo). She even offered to pick him up once to let us avoid the construction traffic back to her house. She did a great job feeding Koda his antibiotics and eye drops too. Corinne was very capable with our independent Great Pyrenees and he clearly loved staying with Corinne and her son. We will not hesitate to book with her out again if/when we are ever back in the area with Koda and can’t have him stay with us. Thank you so much Corinne!!!”
“Great and quick communication! Very trustworthy! You can tell they have a real passion for animals. I felt very comfortable leaving Ajax with Jana and Colten a second time. Always my first choice for any boarding needs!”
“Bridget is incredible! She took excellent care of my high energy dog and send lots of updates. Bridget was very accommodating and flexible with my flight delays. Highly recommend!!”
“Sue did not shy away from watching our young puppy for 10 days. She sent us updates, worked to help her socialize, and dealt with puppy potty training accidents. We are very grateful for the care she provided!”
About: Hey, I'm Jason! Dogs have always been part of my life, and right now Peanut and I are holding down a home that's basically a dog's dream: a fenced yard, a quiet street, and the river and bike path just steps away for long walks and sniff-filled adventures. I offer boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, and doggy day care — with a flexible schedule, so I'm usually available whenever you need me. Here's what your pet can count on: Meals and meds on time, every time Real exercise — yard time plus trail walks by the river Photo/video updates so you always know they're doing great A calm, patient touch, especially for shy or nervous pups Your home and your pet treated with total respect I'd love to meet you both — reach out anytime! Services offered: Boarding, House Sitting, Drop-In Visits, Dog Walking, Doggy Day Care I'm home most of the day, every day, so pet care fits naturally into my routine rather than being squeezed in. When I'm not home, it's usually because I'm out on an adventure somewhere in the county — and dogs in my care are always welcome to tag along on those outings if they're up for it. This flexibility means consistent feeding times, regular walks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Since I'm home most of the day, pets in my care get consistent supervision rather than long stretches alone. At my place, there's a fully fenced yard for secure off-leash time, plus the river and bike path right outside for walks and adventures — and if I'm heading out into the county for the day, well-suited dogs are welcome to come along for the ride. In a client's home, I follow their routine closely, keep doors and gates secure, and treat the space with the same care I'd want for my own.
“Karen was amazing and our dog just loved her! We had some time to kill before a wedding and were able to pick him up and take him for a hike. When we went back to drop him back off after our hike, our dog was genuinely happy to see her, it was great. If I could rate more than 5 stars I would. Super cool and great experience.”
“John is an excellent dog sitter. Super communicative and he was so kind and caring with my dog. He was very diligent about getting my dog out for his walks and sent tons of pictures as well. Highly recommend and I will definitely be using John as a sitter again in the future.”
“Absolutely amazing! Cori was so welcoming and kind to my dogs. It was my first time using Rover and Cori was beyond helpful. I dropped my dogs off with her to undergo a surgery in Denver and Cori was absolutely fantastic with communication and posted updates on how much fun the dogs were having. It was really a huge stress taken off my shoulder. Her place seemed perfect for active dogs like mine with a good trail very close by.”
“Tracy has been amazing, I don't know what I would do without her! She has taking the absolute best care of Bell, she has been always responsive and always kept me updated. Tracy has made my out of town trips not as bad my making sure I know Bell is doing well and sending lots of pictures. I would highly recommend Tracy!”
“Amy was amazing with my little Sola. She (& her dog Jackson) made her feel at home with walks, cuddles, and attention, and, me at ease, it being my first time using Rover. I would highly recommend Amy to anyone and their dog.”
“Angela and her family were awesome! Very hospitable and cared for me dog very well! Could tell her felt very at home. Our dog loved their porch and big yard. Would come back to Angela’s great home!”
“Jenna took such good care of my dog, taking him on a great hike for the day I needed her to watch him (even with a short notice of needing her sitting help) Very happy and would recommend!”
“AJ was able to accommodate a last-minute request while we were in town for a wedding and I am so thankful that she could. It was our first time using Rover for Finn, and it was such a positive experience. She sent multiple videos of him playing with her pups. They got along so well! Highly recommend her if you’re in the Lancaster area. Our boy was exhausted from playing with his new friends all night. Thank you, AJ!”
