“Joan is by far the most attentive sitter we know. She's wonderful with Roux. She's also very flexible. We had to cancel our last two days due to a medical emergency, and she was so accommodating. We also love all of the photos and videos she sends. You can see in them how happy Roux is with her.”
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.
“Karen was an absolute lifesaver for us! We had friends visiting with their kids, and managing two dogs on top of everything would have been a lot, so having Bondi stay with her for a few days made all the difference. Karen kept us completely at ease by posting frequent updates and sharing lots of photos. From every picture, it was clear that Bondi was having the best time and getting so much love and attention. It really meant a lot to see how happy and comfortable he was while we were away. We’re so grateful for the care she gave Bondi and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring to look after their pup!”
“They helped out on short notice. Elwood had lots of play time with other dogs and came home tired. Jana sent photos throughout his stay. Very good overnight boarding service!”
“Tania and her daughter took great care of our dog. They sent pictures and updates. Our dog loved playing with their dogs. He was very happy there. We will definitely use them again.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Elisabeth was great, super accommodating and took great care of Finn, especially as he had some extra needs with some medications. Appreciated her communication and updates as well.”
“This is the second time we have used Marina to care for our German Shepherd, Skye. Our experience with Marina has been nothing short of fantastic! We received updates (with photos) throughout Skye’s stay and were so at ease knowing that she was being so well cared for. I highly recommend Marina!”
“Jen and her family were a delight to work with! They integrated our dog right into their family activities and he was happy and well-rested when I picked him up. I’d hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“Kaylie and Axel were so incredibly kind to our beagle, Beau! We received daily updates and pictures. He was well cared for and they went above and beyond to take him on extra walks and adventures.”
“We had to travel last minute for meetings and Jamie took care of our dog Puddles. She did an amazing job with him and her puppy Copper spent endless amount of time playing with Puddles. She also took Puddles to the dog park and he played in the yard. Endless amounts of fun and exercise. He was definitely worn out when he got home. A great sign that he had a very good time at Jamie’s. Highly recommended! ?”

“Marin was amazing with my cat Poe! This was my first time leaving him alone and I was worried about him, but she left very detailed notes about each visit and made sure to send me pictures along the way which made me feel so much better! He usually is a bit skittish with new people, but he seemed to get comfortable with her very quickly. Will definitely book with her again :)”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and pets for over 12 years and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I have experience with puppies, high-energy dogs, and older pets that need a gentler approach. I’m also very aware of behavior, routines, and making sure your pet stays on their normal schedule. Living an active lifestyle, I’m great for dogs that need exercise, but I’m just as happy taking it slow with more relaxed pets. Communication is important to me, so I’ll always keep you updated with photos and check-ins. I have extra time on my hands as I work on my own schedule. Can easily take off time from my daily activities to accommodate. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every pet I care for. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any specific instructions you provide. I always keep a clean and secure space, making sure pets are supervised and comfortable at all times. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and keep everything just as I found it. I pay close attention to behavior and energy levels to ensure your pet is happy and stress-free. I also provide regular updates and photos so you feel confident and at ease while you’re away.
About: Life is better with dogs and I often say we don’t deserve them! I’ve grown up with dogs and currently have 4 adorable miniature dachshunds. I wanted 2 more but my partner threw down the hammer on me saying no. I’ve used Rover in the past and had some really amazing experiences and one, not so great experience, so I understand the value in finding the right person to stay, play and take care of your loved ones. I’ve always valued my caretaker sending plenty of photos and videos while I’m away, so I always said if I did this for others, I would do the same! Trust and reliability are the most important things I’ve always looked for in having someone stay in my home with my pets while I’m away, and that’s what you get from me! I am currently retired and am fully available day and night! My partner and our 4 dogs stay at our house in Denver full time, and I stay at my house here in the Vail Valley, so there are no conflicts with my schedule. I would be the only person taking care of your pets! Pets are children. Always have been and always will be in my book. I love to play with, walk and snuggle them. I like to give them the same unconditional love they give us.
“Corrie did an amazing job taking care of my cat. She went above and beyond to make sure I knew Juliet was in good hands. Overall, she made it a positive experience for me and for Juliet. I highly recommend Corrie!!”

About: I’m a very friendly and outgoing person towards humans and animals! I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats in my household and really enjoy their company. In September 2020, I adopted a 2 month old Labrador/ Great Pyrenees / Shepard mix named Arlo from the Boulder humane society and have had an amazing time raising him! I have experience with small to large dogs, as well as dogs of all ages. I love staying active and being outdoors. Being able to take dogs on walks and spending time with them is a great way to stay active throughout the day. I am glad to be able to spend my extra time taking care of your dog and providing you with the best service that I can to keep you and your dog happy! I will have plenty of time to play with your pups during the week or weekend! We can go on walks, hikes, to the dog park or play in the backyard. I currently live in a 2 bedroom apartment with an open living room, kitchen, balcony and mud room area. I also have a shared back yard, am less than a 2 minute walk from gore creek trail, and only a 5 minute drive away from the west vail dog park. I also have my own dog that would love a play buddy!

“Penelope was great looking after out dogs for the day while we were out on the mountains; she asked about how our dogs reacted to things to best look after them and she looked after them like they were her own. I'd happily have Penelope look after our dogs in the future!”
About: Our furry friends give us so much joy, it’s my goal to ensure they are well cared for and loved. I have years of experience with dogs and cats in all stages of life. For years I’ve been a trusted sitter, walker, pet parent and friend to many animals in my life. I am responsible and organized and would love to take care of your pet! I currently work from home and have a very flexible job that allows me to provide the care your companion needs. I spend a lot of time walking, training and playing with our sweet pup, Camber! With a young dog at home, my house is comfortable and safe! With my history of pet care I am educated on dangerous foods, plants and toys and am mindful of what we keep in our home to ensure your pet’s safety. I have a large, energetic and friendly dog at home who loves making new friends.
“Ryan was wonderful with our 1 year old dog. He was attentive, easy to communicate with, and made our dog feel right at home. Moreover, he would send us pictures and videos throughout the day to let us know that our dog was doing well in his new surroundings. Lastly, he has a very sweet dog that our dog loved and seemed to bond with almost instantly. Would definitely book with Ryan again!”
“Joan was the best! She is super responsive and she sent me videos all day of my pup. She was very accommodating when I was running late and I really appreciate her!”
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. My goal is simple: to give you complete peace of mind. Your pets (and plants!) will be cared for with the same level of attention, safety, and genuine affection I would give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and becoming someone you can consistently count on. I’m a full-time pet care provider, so spending quality time with your pets is my top priority. I’m available 7 days a week for walks, daycare, boarding, house sitting, or drop-in visits. Daily Routine: Morning: Walks, breakfast, and morning play/enrichment Midday: Potty breaks, short visits, or indoor/outdoor play Afternoon: Longer walks or structured activity for active pets; calm companionship for those who prefer it Evening: Dinner, cuddle time, and gentle evening bathroom breaks I tailor each routine to your pet’s energy, personality, and needs. 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. I treat your home with respect while providing attentive, loving care for your pets, creating an environment where they feel safe and relaxed. I follow your preferred rules and routines closely—feeding schedules, walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and any specific boundaries—so your pet experiences minimal disruption and maximum comfort. For active dogs, I can incorporate walks, outdoor play, or enrichment activities, while calmer or senior pets enjoy gentle companionship and a relaxed pace.

About: I have a super senior 17 year old min pin mix who is spoiled and in perfect health; something I'm very proud of! Growing up I had cats and reptiles and am comfortable with taking care of all four legged or no legged animals ! I am the go to person for pet advice and always pet sit for my friends and family. I am flexible with scheduling with enough notice! I split my time between Vail and Denver, and offer my services both places. My place in the mountains has a small fenced yard. With ample notice I can accommodate your busy schedule. My apartment is pet proof, child free, and I have linoleum floors and a couple of rugs. I own a carpet shampooer and a steam cleaner so nothing phases me and I keep everything sanitary. Fur babies are allowed everywhere and I mainly clean with green and safe products. I have a crate and can crate your pet if needed. I am also comfortable with medication administration and know all the emergency vet hospitals near by. I believe it's important to send updates and pictures, because to me, pets are just as important as human children.
About: I have a lifelong love for animals and hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats at every stage of life. I’ve owned two dogs, both rescues that I fostered and then adopted. One was a German Shepherd mix who lived a full, happy life to the age of 12, and the other is a mixed-breed terrier who is still thriving with me at nearly 9 years old. My experience includes caring for puppies and kittens, as well as senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I’m also comfortable supporting animals with medical needs, including managing conditions like diabetes. I understand how important it is to provide not just basic care, but also love, consistency, and a calm, attentive presence. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I’m able to maintain flexible scheduling, regular check-ins, and plenty of companionship for pets who prefer not to be alone for long periods. I live just a couple of hundred yards from a hiking trail, so daily walks and outdoor time are a natural part of my routine. With my own small terrier, I’m already out walking and hiking regularly, and I love including other dogs in those adventures when appropriate. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. While I do have an unfenced yard, I will always be present and closely supervise any outdoor time. Off-leash potty breaks will only be done with your permission and for pets who are comfortable and reliable in that setting. For added safety, all walks beyond the yard, whether around the neighborhood or on nearby hiking trails will always be done on leash unless permissions provided for off-leash exercise by owner. I stay attentive, aware of surroundings, and committed to keeping your pet secure, comfortable, and well cared for at all times.

“Do not look any further. Stop. Hire Karen, now. We were in the Vail area for a week over Thanksgiving and Karen watched our two labs for 5 days and we could not be any happier!!! She was amazing. Our dogs were taken on multiple walks, hikes, and outings per day. They went sledding and shared videos of our puppy pulling the sled. We got multiple pictures, texts, and videos during the day to keep us posted and they were always walking, playing, or snuggly WITH Karen on the couch and good Lord it was cute!! She is an all-star and you couldn't ask for a better fur baby sitter. My kids wanted to give her five bajillioon stars, but it wasn't an option. She's the best!”
“Jade is the best! We have a very high-maintenance Belgian Malinois who is not a fan of strangers, so finding the right person was incredibly important to us. Jade went completely above and beyond by doing multiple meetings to make sure he felt safe and comfortable with her. Her patience, calm demeanor, and gentle approach made all the difference. She truly took the time to understand his personality and earned his trust at his pace — something that does not come easily with him. We feel so lucky to have found her and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone. Thank you for going the extra mile in every possible way!”

I'll provide walks, potty breaks, meals, playtime, and lots of attention so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I’m a very friendly and outgoing person towards humans and animals! I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats in my household and really enjoy their company. In September 2020, I adopted a 2 month old Labrador/ Great Pyrenees / Shepard mix named Arlo from the Boulder humane society and have had an amazing time raising him! I have experience with small to large dogs, as well as dogs of all ages. I love staying active and being outdoors. Being able to take dogs on walks and spending time with them is a great way to stay active throughout the day. I am glad to be able to spend my extra time taking care of your dog and providing you with the best service that I can to keep you and your dog happy! I will have plenty of time to play with your pups during the week or weekend! We can go on walks, hikes, to the dog park or play in the backyard. I currently live in a 2 bedroom apartment with an open living room, kitchen, balcony and mud room area. I also have a shared back yard, am less than a 2 minute walk from gore creek trail, and only a 5 minute drive away from the west vail dog park. I also have my own dog that would love a play buddy! If at your home, please let me know your preferred areas of play and down time. I can also take your dog to their favorite spots in the area!
About: I’ve lived and cared for animals since I was 8 years old, starting with dogs and rats, to even birds and cats! Im a huge animal lover and super patient with my fur babies. I’m working a part-time job about 4 days a week so I‘ve had a lot of free-time for doggie walks and pet sits! It is best to reach me by my phone number or through the app so we can figure out a time that works between us. I have an apartment in Avon Colorado with an outdoor area for walks and a balcony to rest on. It’s spacious inside for a large bed and toys as well!
About: I have always had a love for animals. I have had dogs always growing up and have taken care of lots of different animals. I have a 4 year old aussie who has lots of energy and loves other dogs! I work remotely & a few days a week in person so I am able to be flexible & move my schedule around for pet’s needs! I live right by a very nice hiking trail and have access to walking trails, swimming spots for the dogs & the dog park as well.
About: I genuinely enjoy taking care of, playing and loving pets! I have been around animals my whole life & it makes life so much more fulfilling. I have two cats and a dog of my own & have been the dog/cat auntie for many friends with pets. I love taking pets on adventures, hiking, parks, kayaking, paddle boarding, cuddling up on the couch, playing fetch, tug of war or learning new tricks. Pets add so much love and joy to our lives, they give love without question & it’s so meaningful to experience. I have volunteered at animal shelters in the USVI and SC. I also volunteered at a Donkey rehabilitation center in USVI taking care of donkeys, goats & horses. Rover is currently my main job so I should have availability in my schedule as of right now. Message me and we can talk more about scheduling needs. I believe in creating a safe and loving space for your pet or continuing the current space provided. I live by the statement “always leave things better than you found them”.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I work in the morning some days and nights some days. So my schedule varies. But, I always will have some time during the day. I have a very friendly fur baby of my own, so must be dog friendly. But I have a large living room with a spare bedroom, so I have plenty of room.

“Joan is by far the most attentive sitter we know. She's wonderful with Roux. She's also very flexible. We had to cancel our last two days due to a medical emergency, and she was so accommodating. We also love all of the photos and videos she sends. You can see in them how happy Roux is with her.”
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.
“Karen was an absolute lifesaver for us! We had friends visiting with their kids, and managing two dogs on top of everything would have been a lot, so having Bondi stay with her for a few days made all the difference. Karen kept us completely at ease by posting frequent updates and sharing lots of photos. From every picture, it was clear that Bondi was having the best time and getting so much love and attention. It really meant a lot to see how happy and comfortable he was while we were away. We’re so grateful for the care she gave Bondi and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring to look after their pup!”
“They helped out on short notice. Elwood had lots of play time with other dogs and came home tired. Jana sent photos throughout his stay. Very good overnight boarding service!”
“Tania and her daughter took great care of our dog. They sent pictures and updates. Our dog loved playing with their dogs. He was very happy there. We will definitely use them again.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Elisabeth was great, super accommodating and took great care of Finn, especially as he had some extra needs with some medications. Appreciated her communication and updates as well.”
“This is the second time we have used Marina to care for our German Shepherd, Skye. Our experience with Marina has been nothing short of fantastic! We received updates (with photos) throughout Skye’s stay and were so at ease knowing that she was being so well cared for. I highly recommend Marina!”
“Jen and her family were a delight to work with! They integrated our dog right into their family activities and he was happy and well-rested when I picked him up. I’d hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“Kaylie and Axel were so incredibly kind to our beagle, Beau! We received daily updates and pictures. He was well cared for and they went above and beyond to take him on extra walks and adventures.”
“We had to travel last minute for meetings and Jamie took care of our dog Puddles. She did an amazing job with him and her puppy Copper spent endless amount of time playing with Puddles. She also took Puddles to the dog park and he played in the yard. Endless amounts of fun and exercise. He was definitely worn out when he got home. A great sign that he had a very good time at Jamie’s. Highly recommended! ?”
“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!!”
“Amanda was great! She responded quickly and was able to accommodate on short notice. She sent pictures and took Maggie on one of her favorite walks! I had a tired pup when I picked her up, which is always a guarantee that she had a good time. I will definitely be using Amanda again!”
