“Amber was great! Our dog is very nervous around new people but we felt very comfortable leaving her in Ambers care for the day! Appreciated the great communication leading up to and during the stay.”

“Mark was wonderful! He has a way with dogs, and he makes caring for your fur babies a lifestyle. There’s a big run for the pups to play in, as well as separated spaces for pups that prefer to be on their own. He was great about administering our dog’s medicine and keeping her on her food schedule, and he would send us frequent updates so we knew she was in good hands. Thank you so much, Mark!”

“Virginia was great! Bruno loved his time there. Her place has lots of space and a great yard for the dogs to play and enjoying lounging outside. Will definitely use her again. Thanks Ginia”

“Savannah was wonderful with Alice during her four-night stay! She communicated consistently, sent updates, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Most importantly, Alice absolutely loved her and came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with Savannah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter for their dog.”

“Heather did such an amazing job with our dog, Bruno! It was such a relief to know that he was having so much fun and being so well cared for while we were gone. We were afraid that he wouldn't want to come back home! She also sent the most amazing pics of him for us to enjoy! Thank you so much! Bruno can't wait to stay again!”

“Couldn't have had a better experience. William sent messages and photos to make sure I knew The Dude was not just in good hands, but relaxed and having fun. Knowing Dude was well taken care of made my trip so much sweeter. Great communication. Great care. Great experience.”

“What a wonderful sitter. She stayed true to her word on scheduling, taking care of my sweet dog, introducing her to other animals and family members in a way that kept her comfortable. Highly recommended and much appreciated for taking Sami on so many great walks. Thank you!”

“Courtney went above and beyond in caring for our dog, Tug. She sent pictures and videos every day. He had a minor eye problem that she communicated immediately to me. Then she drove to my house to get some meds I had for him to treat it. She also dropped him off at our house at the end of his stay. I highly recommend her. Tug got along great with her dog. He also got to snuggle with Courtney and Dax and sleep on the bed just like at home. I am very pleased with the care he recieved-really put my mind at ease as we were gone for over 2 weeks.”

“Ansley was awesome! She was very communicative and sent adorable pictures and updates of Luna throughout her stay, and took Luna to do lots of fun activities. Her dog was also great with Luna! I felt like Luna was in great hands while I was traveling. I will definitely plan to book with Ansley again.”

“Tom did a great job taking care of our pup Moog. He regularly sent updates and efficiently communicated with us. We would highly recommend Tom to watch your pet and we will use him again!”

“It is very apparent that Ashley loves animals. She lights up when talking about them. So I knew my Maybelline would be in good hands. Ashley was a fantastic communicator and I felt at ease knowing my catto kiddo would have everything she needed. Would highly recommend to others and will surely use her services in the future. The best!”

“We had to make a last minute booking and I’m so glad we found Mariah. She was great with our three kitties. She followed all our instructions and sent updates and pictures twice a day every day. We’d happily book her again.”


About: I have experience taking care of my own cats and others since I was young. I am good with cats of all kinds and I find it incredibly important to respect their space and go at their pace. I've had great success with getting shy or aggressive cats to open up and become comfortable with me. I have never taken care of a hairless cat but I would love to meet one and learn the unique aspects of their care as well.
About: Hello fellow dog lovers! With over 20 years of experience owning and caring for dogs, I understand the deep bond between humans and their furry companions. Although I cannot host pets in my rental overnight, I’d love to take your dog for a walk or house sit where they feel most comfortable- your home! I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to provide care both during and outside of regular business hours. Whether it’s a midday walk, evening playtime or weekend adventure, I’m here to ensure your dog receives the attention, love and exercise they deserve. If you book me for pet sitting in your home, you can feel at ease knowing that I will respect your space and make it a goal of mine to leave your space as clean as you left it. Let’s connect and discuss how I can offer your dog the right care and attention to make you feel comfortable when you can’t be with them. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! I work from home and have a fairly flexible schedule! I can provide pet services within or outside of regular business hours- let’s discuss your pets needs and I can likely fit them in to my schedule, no problem! I love clients who offer detailed lists of their pets needs and daily routines! I used to do the same with my dog and know that following something like this gives everyone involved (dogs included!) ease of mind.
About: As an avid outdoor enthusiast and dog lover you can be sure your dog is getting the attention and exercise they need! I try to take the dogs out 2 times a day for walks and every couple of hours for potty breaks. I do have a wonderful pup-o of my own, Luna so your doggo has some company. Is your dog more of a runner? If so I’ll pop on my mountain bike and let them do some trail running... more of a lazy doggo? How about some ice cream? Just kidding... no ice cream! Definitely a happy household and a fun loving environment for everyone! If you have any questions, concerns or special needs, feel free to reach out. Thanks and I look forward to meeting with you and your pup!

“We were nervous to find someone to watch our dog to go hiking, as he has never been left anywhere before. However I was so relieved to find Kenzie! She was flexible with working with us, communicative, sent photo updates the whole time we were gone, and provided Archie with a comfortable and friendly place to stay! If we were ever in the area again and in need of someone to help with Archie, Kenzie would be the first person we would ask!”

“Mark is a great communicator. We're on an extended trip and needed a sitter. He was able to fit us in. He took great care of our spoiled puppy. We got many pictures of her enjoying herself. Mark knows dogs and made us feel very comfortable leaving our puppy for the day. One of the best Rover sitters we've had.”

“Kaitlynn and her family were the best people to leave our boy with for the day while we spent time in Mesa Verde. He was loved and cared for with plenty of space to sniff and play as well. Highly recommend!”


“Ashley was absolutely fabulous. We were staying at an RV park and did not want to leave our Westie, Cody while we were all day at Mesa Verde. Cody had a wonderful time playing with her dogs and running in the yard. Highly recommend! Will definitely use her again.”

“Kerrin was great and I highly recommend her. She was very flexible and responsive to Archie's needs and sent me pictures. Archie can be barky at a new place at first and Kerrin was very understanding. I could tell Archie had a great time as he just slept when we got home. Thanks, Kerrin”

“Carole was perfect for our pup. She got down on the ground with her when we arrived and left, and sent pics throughout the day. If I find myself in Durango again, I’ll definitely use her!”

“Jackson was flexible in scheduling and a great communicator as we made plans. More importantly, he took great care of our dog, took her hiking and again to a park while we rode the Silverton train. Best dog care ever! Also, we will be finding and purchasing his pottery before we leave for our next stop!”


About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve owned, cared for, and worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities—from toy breeds to full-grown Mastiffs. My experience also includes working with cattle and ranch dogs, several hunting breeds, and spending time assisting handlers working with K-9 units. That experience has taught me how different every dog can be and how important it is to pay attention to their individual personality, energy level, boundaries, and routine. Whether your dog is a laid-back couch companion, an energetic working breed, a powerful large dog, or somewhere in between, I’m comfortable adapting my care to what they need. My goal is simple: give your dog safe, dependable care and treat them with the same patience and attention I’d want for my own. I work from home, so pups get plenty of attention, tailored walks, adventures, playtime, stimulation, and a large fenced yard for sunbathing. Trips to the off leach dog park when we are able. I follow each pet’s normal routine and needs, from feeding and walks to playtime, enrichment, and downtime. At home, pups enjoy supervision, a fenced yard, and plenty of attention.
“Ansley is the sweetest and best! She send me several photos throughout the day and I could tell Simba was having a blast and made new friends. I would definitely recommend and will use Ansley’s care again in the future. :)”

About: I’ve been a pet owner for nearly 30 years — from growing up with our family’s Border Collies and house cats, to raising my own Jack Russells throughout adulthood, to caring for two rescue kittens in college. I’m equally comfortable with dogs and cats of all personalities and needs. What sets me apart is the range of care I’ve provided. I’ve raised a Jack Russell puppy from the wild, zoomie-filled stage into a well-behaved, confident adult, so I’m patient, consistent, and great with puppies who need structure and gentle training. I’ve also cared for a 17-year-old senior dog during his end-of-life stage, which taught me how to support pets who need slower routines, medication, and close, intuitive attention. I fostered an entire litter of puppies and their mom from an overcrowded shelter, so I’m familiar with round-the-clock care, monitoring, and meeting shy or sensitive animals where they are. Between that and my own lifelong pet experience, I’ve worked with animals at every life stage and energy level. I’m single with plenty of free time, which means your pets get steady attention, affection, and a calm, reliable presence while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because of the flexibility I have in my career. I’m a real estate agent with a team beneath me, which means I create my own schedule and have other agents I can rely on if I’m ever occupied. That gives me plenty of space in my days for walks, check-ins, playtime, and consistent attention. I’ve actually considered getting another dog over the last couple of years, but I haven’t felt ready for the full-time commitment again. A friend suggested I join Rover as a way to support other pet owners in the community while still getting to pour my love, energy, and care into animals — and it’s the perfect fit. Your pets get someone who’s genuinely excited to spend time with them and has the availability to be fully present. I’m very affectionate and hands-on with the pets I care for — they get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I genuinely love walking, so having a dog join me on my daily walks is the best part of my routine. Whether it’s a neighborhood stroll, a peaceful loop along the River Trail, or a fun outing to the Smelter dog park, I make sure pets get the activity and stimulation they need. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely so everything feels familiar and comforting. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, potty breaks, behavior changes, and whatever little rituals make each pet feel at ease. My goal is always to create a safe, loving, and engaging experience — whether they’re with me for a few hours or a few days.
“Tucker was so happy to be greeted by Samantha as we entered her courtyard area! She made him feel right at home, took him for walks! Sent pictures of him ! She took great care of him! Train ran late and she Samantha was so accommodating! Thanks for taking such good care of him!”

“Allena took excellent care of our teacup poodle! She sent pictures and provided a loving environment for our dog Misty. Her fur babies Teddy and Lalo were very friendly and welcoming to our little 3 lb dog!”

“Jenny was very accommodating about drop off and pick up time. She communicated promptly in setting up the day care. She sent pictures of Lefty having fun and playing throughout the day. He obviously had a great time with Jenny, her dog Luna, and guest dog Reuben. I highly recommend Jenny and would bring Lefty back to her any time I'm in the area. Thanks Jenny!”

About: I have been working with animals since I was a child! I grew up on a farm with horses and our trusty yellow Labradors, learning from an early age the true meaning of taking care of others. I love providing dogs the happiest experience - I find such joy when playing, running, skiing, or hiking with dogs and seeing the BIG smile on their faces! Any pups that stay with me, my husband, and our goofy dog, Miles, will have a fantastic time, as well as guaranteed adventure (as appropriate!). When your pup stays with us, he/she will never be left alone and will be treated as one of our own. Having fur-babies of our own, I understand the importance of knowing that your pup is well taken care of according to his/her needs. We hope to see you soon! I work full-time from home with a flexible schedule. Considering this, your pup will never be left alone and enjoy our company (and snuggles) 24/7. I have a flexible schedule and will update my calendar weekly as needed regarding my availability. Our home is located in Rafter J on three acres, ~10 minutes from downtown Durango. We have one dog named Miles, a seven-year-old Weimaraner who has a goober personality and LOVES to play with other dogs.

About: Care for animals has been a passion of mine throughout my life. My experience ranges from years working in an animal hospital to simply dog sitting. I cannot wait to meet your pets! During the week we can be available at anytime and we look forward to pet care being an important part of our daily function in life! I care for animals by listening to the owners expectations and then adhering to subsequent schedules and routines to meet all of the pets needs and to make the pet as happy and comfortable as possible.
About: I'm an animal lover! We have two dogs (Border Collie mixes) and one cat. I know how important it is to feel like your fur friends are in good hands and I will make sure I do that for you. I have experience giving meds to both cats and dogs, if needed. We have two kids, 5 & 6 years old, who are very good and gentle with pets. They have a lot of experience with animals. All I ask is that your pet is also kid-friendly! They will be closely monitore together. You may have noticed in my photos that we also have chickens! They do have a large, separate yard, so they will be in their own area when we have visiting pets. They are well secured, so if you worry your dog might get excited and chase them, their fence will keep them safe. During the school year, I drop my kids off in the morning, might have short errands to run, home most of the day, then pick the kids up in the afternoon. Our dogs eat in the morning and the evening with many potty breaks in between. As for summer, we spend most of our time outside in the yard. My husband is a wildland firefighter, so I am home with the kids most of the time. As a photographer, my schedule is very flexible. I usually only do photo sessions during the evening and they're only a half hour to an hour long. When I have weddings, it's likely I won't be available because they are long days away from home and I wouldn't want to leave your pet alone for that long, my availability will be updated accordingly. Even with photo sessions and school, I am home a lot! I understand from experience how it can feel to leave your pets somewhere unknown. I will do my very best to keep to the schedule your pets are usually on. Feeding, potty breaks, medication, etc. I will make sure they feel at home, get love and attention, play time, walks, and anything else they would normally enjoy. Feel free to bring them a bed so they have somewhere to sleep. Our dogs sleep on our bed, but we will make sure your pet doesn't feel lonely at bedtime, too!
