“Our pup loved staying at Jana &Colten’s place! I really appreciated that halfway through the day, she sent me pictures of him and updated me that he was doing well. He is on a shy side, so I appreciated Jana’s gentle energy when we dropped him off :) we would definitely rebook, and I think our dog enjoyed his time with them.”
“Tania and her daughter took great care of Bandit for a full week. We received frequent notes and pictures. He had a lot of walks. He loved playing with their dogs and was treated like part of the family.”

“Marina was wonderful! She provided tremendous care for our German Shepard, Skye and kept us updated through her visit with texts and photos. We will absolutely use her again!”
“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.”
“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.”
“Erin and her family were fantastic sitters for my dog Pika! Erin sends lots of photos and has 2 very friendly dogs that made Pika feel right at home. Especially in a pinch when we had last minute plans around Christmas. Highly recommend, thank you so much Erin!”

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.

“I'd be happy to help! Here's a friendlier version of the I booked this place last minute and the host was amazing! They were really communicative and sweet.

It was a great experience overall!”
About: My family has always had a dog and I have also petsat dogs of all sizes and ages for 10+ years. I am an avid runner and have taken many of the dogs I petsit for runs with me. I currently work two to three days per week as a nurse, which gives me plenty of opportunity and flexibility to take care of your pets! I am able to care for your pets both in your home and mine. I am more than happy to spend the night at your house to care for the dog if that is easier on the dog for routine and comfort. I will adhere to your house rules in terms of furniture and ensure that the house is in the same condition as you left it.

“Kyle was a great host to Zuma during our time away. He was very responsive, communicative, and reliable. Most importantly, Zuma seemed very happy when we picked him up. We will look forward to trusting Kyle with Zuma again!”

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.

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.

“If I could give Devon more than 5, it would need to be 20. Caring, attentive, respectful, clean, tidy, and most importantly loves our 2 cats. They are high maintenance DSH orange tabbies that beg for attention, and they got it for the 10 days we were out of the country. And, when Devon's partner, Taylor, visited, the love and attention our "boys" received went non-linear. Pictures and videos every day. The house was left clean and organized, the sheets were washed and the bed changed, attention was paid to the "rules", our "boys" were happy, and.....so were we!”
About: Greetings! Caring for animals is second nature to me. I grew up in Southern Minnesota on a hobby ranch that nurtured my deep love for animals. As I got older, I found myself in similar situations- constantly surrounded by animals of all kinds and more often than not, finding myself more at peace when surrounded by them. From cities and slopes in CO to the vast landscapes and ranches in WY, I've always worked with and looked after animals of all kinds. Your critters are in good hands with me! Besides my love for animals, I am trustworthy and genuine. I served as a Mental Health Child Counselor, Preschool Teacher, Autism Specialist, and Career Nanny for over 10 years. I own two nanny and babysitting agencies where i work from home. My passions in life include teaching mindfulness and meditation, traveling, and seeing live music. Pet Care fits into my life very easily and fluidly because I work from home, build my own schedule, and can adapt to the needs of each day. All in all, I'm a good listener and will follow the needs and requests of my clients. I am very hands-on and love to be present and engaging depending on need. The more love I can give the better. Your home will be cared for like it was my own.
“Penelope was absolutely the best! She took great care of our dogs and cats! She communicated well, followed instructions and sent pics and videos frequently. We will definitely book her again!”
About: Rest assured, your pets will be safe and have a great time with me with 20 years' experience dog/cat sitting, I absolutely ADORE animals! I'm am an experienced mom, wife and animal lover, fun, honest and caring person. In my years of house/pet sitting I have NEVER cancelled a job, had a dog get loose, or ever had a client no recommend me to their friends--I am extremely professional and honest. Caring for someone else's animals is a very important job that I do not take lightly. Understanding animal's concerns takes experience, intuition and patience. I love all animals and try to make a connection with the whenever I have the chance. When house/pet sitting, I always make sure to leave homes in better shape than when I arrived. For example: sweeping, picking up dog poo, cleaning dog bowls, vacuum and shoveling driveway) By day, I am a retail buyer that works from home so my schedule is very flexible. I will be open and honest about my availability and able to care for your pets. I have a fur-child of my own that is a 6-year-old shepard/collie mix and a 8 year old son that also loves animals. If your animal like being around kids my son would love to meet them as well. Please feel free to reach out with any questions! Josie
About: I have been around dogs my entire life! I have grown up with dogs and very familiar with most breeds. I know how to communicate with them and easily figure out if anything is wrong. I absolutely love animals and would love to be a dog trainer one day. I have open availability andI pay close attention when I am responsible for watching an animal or child. I pet sit all the time for friends (puppies, elderly, overnight, or just stopping by). If I could have my career focused on dogs, I would be ecstatic! I'm trustworthy and knowledgable.

About: I’ve had pets since I was a toddler. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, lizards, snakes, fish, and chickens. I have always loved animals deeply, I went vegetarian when I was 5 years old because I couldn’t bare to eat them, I still am today. I love being outside and would love to take your pet on outdoor adventures if you’d like, or I’m happy to give them gentle loving care, relaxing at home as well if that’s more their style. I have a lot of freedom and flexibility in the summers as I work seasonally as a ski instructor in Colorado. I spend my summers hiking and traveling mostly, but in between my travels I am spending time with family and taking care of furry friends! I live in a camper van, so most likely would not host pets in my van. However with house sitting, I have the unique ability to be parked at your home and be inside as little or as much as you’d like. (If you prefer to not have someone sleeping in your bed, I can have my own bed just right outside the house). I am also happy to be fully integrated into your home if you and your pet are happier with that arrangement.

“Keith helped out with a midday drop-in visit to keep my blind senior pup happy. A challenge for some to take Beacon for a walk, Keith got him down several flights of stairs and out for a walk. I appreciated the thorough notes and pixs.”
“Alex was just fantastic with both our energetic and playful dogs (Belgian Malinous and Aussie Shepherd). She provided us with exactly the dog care we needed during our vacation. They were well-cared for, taken out to the beach and in a great mood when we got back. We'd gladly hire her again. Thank you, Alex!!”

Growing up in North West Iowa our family has had 5 generations of working Labrador retrievers spanning from the early 1970's. Without a doubt, dogs are our favorite family tradition.

Every day is an adventure out on the ranch. Your dog will have a country experience that most humans would envy! Your pup will be my side kick and get to make 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.

Lastly, he has a very sweet dog that our dog loved and seemed to bond with almost instantly. Would definitely book with Ryan again!”

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.

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.
“Shelby took care of our golden retriever pup while we were in Breckenridge on a ski trip. She took her on walks, to the dog park, fed her, and kept her company so we could enjoy our days on the mountain. Shelby sent pictures and was very responsive to texts. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for dog care!”
“Annie was awesome! Even though I gave her the incorrect address, she still came and walked my pups twice and they loved it! I really appreciate her taking good care of my girls. Thank you Annie!”
“Karine is such a responsive and caring dog walker! She kept me updated and I felt like my pups were in great hands and well taken care of during my busy work day. Will definitely book with her again!”

I think it’s all built from respect and trust.

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: Hi, I'm Keith, a 34-year-old Cornell graduate that grew up in a family of animal lovers! My Dad worked in the animal health industry his whole life and he instilled in us the love of taking care of dogs and all animals since I was a little boy growing up on our farm. My first dog was an older border collie named Amy I got as a five-year-old and I've been raising them ever since. The dog that shines brightest in my memory is Snowy, our family dog from when I was 11-23 years old (the white lab/retriever looking mix in the pics). We used to race hundreds of miles up and down our half-mile long driveway in Upstate NY as Snowy could run 30-32mph in his prime! We truly grew up together and after university, Snowy and I moved across the country to the mountains of Colorado where he enjoyed his namesake fully until he passed away several years ago. The joy that he brought to my family, friends, strangers and patients while volunteering in the hospital is something I'll never forget. I'm passionate about helping ease the difficulties of pet ownership for others so that they too can hopefully have the bond that Snowy and I will always have. In the last 10+ years, I've traveled long term through 80ish countries and thus have decided to wait until I lead a more consistent lifestyle to bring a new puppy into my life. However, I have been very fortunate to have the opportunity to house and pet sit for a number of friends and strangers around the world. If you have a 4-legged friend that needs a new buddy, I'm your man! I am very flexible so don't be afraid to reach out if you need someone anytime at the last minute. Most of my pet and house sitting has not come to me through Rover otherwise I'd easily have 75+ references here but happy to provide other references from Airbnb where I'm a 11-time Superhost etc. I have no set schedule. I am completely free to plan my days around your dogs. I usually make up my plans the day of. Whatever you wish is my command as it is easy for me to adopt whatever rules you prefer so your pets can have familiar consistency. I have no other responsibilities. Please see the rest of my profile and the other sections, not sure why a word limit is needed here. However they would like me to.

About: I’ve cared for dogs all my life, worked with all breeds, volunteered with dog non-profits, and I am the preferred dogsitter of my friends as well. I have experience with many breeds ranging from border collies to chihuahuas! I currently work from home, with additional part time work on some weekends in town. My schedule is typically flexible for walks, boards, pickups and drop offs, or whatever is needed. I have a non-fenced yard so the pet would be under direct supervision while staying with me, and I am at home most days so they would never stray too far!
About: I’ve been a dog owner my whole life, from yellow labs to chihuahuas. Dogs are a passion of mine. Pets are part of the family. I currently have a 6 yr old border collie mix and he’s my whole world. I would do anything for him as I would do anything for any pet. The love we share with our animals is incomparable. Have your pets well taken care of & loved while you’re gone by someone who cares for your pet just as much as she cares for her own. That way you don’t have to worry or wonder while you are away. You know your fur baby is in good, experienced hands, just waiting for you to return home. I live in a 4 bed house with a nice big grassy backyard with plenty of room, toys and treats!!

“Our pup loved staying at Jana &Colten’s place! I really appreciated that halfway through the day, she sent me pictures of him and updated me that he was doing well. He is on a shy side, so I appreciated Jana’s gentle energy when we dropped him off :) we would definitely rebook, and I think our dog enjoyed his time with them.”
“Tania and her daughter took great care of Bandit for a full week. We received frequent notes and pictures. He had a lot of walks. He loved playing with their dogs and was treated like part of the family.”

“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.”

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.

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.
“I'd be happy to help! Here's a friendlier version of the I booked this place last minute and the host was amazing! They were really communicative and sweet.

It was a great experience overall!”

I am more than happy to spend the night at your house to care for the dog if that is easier on the dog for routine and comfort. I will adhere to your house rules in terms of furniture and ensure that the house is in the same condition as you left it.
“I can’t say enough about the wonderful experience we had with Tia and her family. First experience with Rover - and it was great. Our Rocky became a member of the family- took hikes - snuggled at night and when i picked him up - i could see he was well-loved. Thank you Tia!!”
