“Aubrey is amazing and very helpful. Fen is very enthusiastic to be around her and her pets. She has a fenced yard and plenty of room for dogs to run around and play. She was able to pick Fen up and drop him off. I am also rebooking her over Christmas!”
“Delane is the best! My pup is always so excited to go to her place and have fun with her dog Lucy. Plus she’s always been flexible with any booking modifications or last minute requests! Can’t recommend her enough.”
“Nutmeg had a wonderful long weekend with Kim and Fred. She got to explore their backyard and went on walks in the neighborhood. I picked up a happy dog today!”
“Mitzi and Klifton are the absolute best! Super caring and responsible, professional, wonderful to communicate with... I cannot think of a better place to entrust our dog to. Thank you so much!”
“Sarah has watched my two dogs three times now. They LOVE going over to Sarah's house, playing in the yard, and playing with Koko. Communication is great. No complaints, highly recommend.”
“Curtis was great, we had a prebook meet up with our dogs to make sure it was a fit, and M and M were very sweet to our little puppy. During the stay Curtis sent photos and little report cards each day and we knew Broer was loving being in a pack and adventuring about town! He had plenty of walks and I felt very comfortable he was in good hands, and a little worried he might not want to come home with us!”
“We are grateful for the love and care Alexandra & Jeff plus kids gave to Arley during a long weekend stay. It's always nice to have peace of mind when traveling and we had that with them. Arley was well cared for and happy to see us -- and it was great to see a few pics of Arley doing well in their home. We will book again in the future.”
“Emily is awesome. We've had our dog with her twice and he loves going there. He's made buddies with her sweet dog, Lemon, and Emily takes such great care of him. I am so comfortable leaving Marty with her and Hector!”
“Georgia did a great job with my two dogs, they warmed up to her quickly and I felt that they were safe with her. She was very communicative and sent lots of photos.”
“My kitty had so much fun during her stay! I was able to see daily pictures and videos of her and Sing-Chun followed all instructions and went above and beyond to make Mafalda comfortable.”
“Maggie was great with our little one! So kind, quick to respond, and caring. We really appreciated her love for dogs and her enthusiasm to care for our fur baby, highly recommend!”
“The most caring, attentive, communicative and easy going sitter I've ever had. She sent photos, status updates and when Zaya wouldn't eat (because she was so nervous to be away from home), she asked about ways to entice her to eat and successfully got her to gobble up her meals. And when my plans changed last minute, she was able to accommodate us for an extra night without any issues. Very grateful to have found a dedicated sitter I can trust so much 🥰”
“Maddy was very professional with great communication. She kept me updated with pictures and videos and it looked like my pup got LOTS of love and attention. Georgia was content and sleepy after pickup, so I know she had a great time and got a workout. Having a fenced backyard is also a big plus. I will definitely take Georgia to Maddy again for sitting.”
“Stephen and his family were great! I can tell my dog had a great time and enjoyed himself. Stephen was cautious of the hot weather and knew my dogs limits. Super appreciative of their flexibility and willingness to adapt pending my dogs injured paw, as well. Appreciated the communication. Would book again!! Thank you so much!”
“We have used a couple different dog sitters over the years, but Kimberly is far and away the best. Our dog Gypsy can be sensitive to change and easily stressed out, but Kimberly was so good with her and making sure she felt comfortable. Gypsy got a ton of daily exercise and cuddles and came home a very happy pup. Kimberly also knew we were a little nervous about leaving Gypsy and texted twice daily with pictures or videos and updates every day of our trip. It was such a relief knowing that our dog was in great hands and was very well taken care of during our absence. We will absolutely use Kimberly again and can’t recommend her enough.”
“Meghan and Hakon are amazing and loved on our pups so much! It was Kinzie’s first stay away and they made her feel so at ease and comfortable in their home. Lincoln is a pro and had a blast. We got plenty of updates and photos and knew our dogs were in great hands. Lincoln and Kinzie look forward to their next stay!”
“Emily was absolutely amazing with Zola! I got a lot of photo updates and reassurance that she was well taken care of while I was away! I will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her. Zola came home in a very good mood.”
“Shanik and her husband are so loving and amazing with our dog Cache. They love him like we do when we are away. Cache and their dog Manni are the best of friends and Shanik sends us pictures of them snuggling and playing every day. We couldn't have found a better dog sitter and I will be a repeat customer for as long as they will have us!”

About: I am 18 and I graduated highschool may 2026. I have a lot of experience with dogs and other animals. When I was younger I participated in dog training 4-h where I would take my dog and train him surrounded by a lot of other dogs. I also worked at a doggy daycare where I would watch many dogs at once and keep them all calm, fed, and happy. I have four dogs of my own, two Dalmatians and two chiawawa mixes. So I have a lot of experience in handling all types of dog sizes and breeds. As for other animals, I have the most experience with fish and guinea pigs and cats as I used to care for fish at my job and my little sister had a guinea pig so I know everything about how to care for one, I also have many friends with cats who I have cat sit for and taken care of and fed their cats. No matter the animal I would love to care for your pet and will follow any and all instructions to a T. Please let me know of any questions and thank you!
“Olivia was great! She came through for me at the last minute, let me know how my cats were doing while I was gone and followed instructions perfectly. My house was clean and well taken care of when I got home.”
“Highly recommend Carolyn! She was excellent and extremely flexible with our last minute travel plans changing. She is very communicative and took great care of our senior cat, including medication administration.”
About: I have always owned big dogs and love them so much! I also frequently walk dogs around my neighborhood and love keeping them active while keeping myself active! During the school year I have school in the mornings, but in the summer I am free all day after my job at 10 am! I regularly take my own dog for walks and am very aware of my surroundings while doing so! I will test any dogs I walk like my own, keeping them safe for you!
About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and am currently a puppy raiser for Guide Dogs for the Blind so haven’t been dog sitting much lately. I love all animals and making new furry friends. I have 10 years experience dog sitting dogs that aren’t my own. I am outside everyday and can take your dog on runs, hikes, walks or play frisbee! I have experience house breaking rescue dogs and teaching them dog tricks. I also work close by and have the flexibility to go home during the day. Feel free to reach out with any questions via email or phone. I work on Pearl st and am very flexible. I can do drop in visits house sitting and I can board one dog at a time for a short period of time I love to play frisbee with dogs, go on runs or walks. I usually spend a good chunk of my day outside and would love to bring your pet along!
“Angela amazing. I will recommend her to anyone and will definitely book again next time we are out of town. She took care of our cats so like they were he own; communicated effectively, sent adorable photos and stories. Our house was better than we left it when we returned home and that's saying something as Angela dealt with the big windstorm that knocked out power to our rural home. She even took care of my plants. Seriously, Angela is a wonderful human being who will treat your pets and home with kindness and respect.”
About: Hi there! I am a complete animal lover whether it's cats or dogs. I have had a cat for about 10 years now, taken care of her in various ways and I would be more than happy to take care of your cat and fill whatever needs they may have! I'm incredibly flexible and a caring person so your cat would be in good hands. I hope we can get in touch soon!
“Zane took great care of my boy Elliot while I was away for over two weeks. He feed him on time, cleaned his litter and had play time. He sent selfies of them almost everyday. My place was just as I had left when I returned. Highly recommend!”
“Jennifer was great! My kitty is still adjusting to his new home and she was patient and very detailed with her check-ins. I will definitely be hiring Jennifer again when I am out of town.”
About: Born and raised living in an animal house! Between the 3-4 dogs at a time, 2 cats (+the ones we took care of outside), and the 50+ rabbits we had, oh and lets not forget the pet oppossom we rescued, I'd say I know a thing or two about taking care of animals! I have helped out many of my friends by taking care of the pets and I currently dog sit for a lady right by my house. I am comfortable with all breeds of dogs and happy to help if you have more than one animal! I currently work full time at a little coffee shop in town. Normally working tuesday-saturday. Tuesdays and Wednesdays I tend to get off around 4pm and Thursdays through Saturday I am off at 2pm! Happy to take care of animals early before work and right after I get off. I wouldnt be able to have in-home care at my place but at a clients home I would make sure the animals are well taken care of. They could mean 3 walks a day (with a mix of letting them out in the backyard-if applicable), feeding morning and night, giving treats throughout the day, taking them on hikes (depending on how well trained they are), and providing lots of love and playtime!
“Rikku was great! He got to know our cat Boots quickly and boots warmed right up to him. When we got home boots seemed happy and comfortable. Would recommend Rikku!”
“K was an amazing sitter and house guest!! Our girls were in such a happy mood, barely missed us which is such a great sign of being well taken care of. Button was very filled out (healthy and good from her meds) which is a balance many sitters don’t get exactly right. She also took great care of our house and many packages that arrived while we were away. 20/10 recommend for your pets and house!”

“Shanik and family are wonderful pet hosts. Mila loved to spend the days with them. She was happy to play ball outside in the snow for her first time. Shanik took care of Mila while my family and I were out skiing. Mila felt like she was home! Thank you!”
“Jacky was AMAZING with Mecum, I swear he had the best night of his life. She was super attentive to his needs and brought him for many fun activities. Best Rover person I’ve ever met!!! I’m so grateful I met her and can’t wait for future trips for her to hang out with him! :) he moved right in and loved it. Thank you, Jacky! She also sent me frequent updates throughout the night and sent pictures/ videos. You’re the best, Jacky!!!!”
About: I love big dogs, especially GSDs, but have experience with many ages, breeds, and sizes. I grew up with several labs. The last 10 years I raised a German Shepherd from 8 weeks that sadly passed away last summer. Needless to say I miss being covered in dog hair. I have experience with various personalities, separation anxiety, cuts/injuries, and administering medication. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, hikes, and going to parks, but can also just hang out with your pup if that’s what’s desired. I work remote full time and set my own schedule, allowing flexibility all hours and days. I live in a home with plenty of room and a fenced in backyard. Trails are 20 yards away. Reach out if you’d like to set up a meet and greet! I work remotely and make my own schedule, so I’m flexible at all hours and days to provide the care that your dog needs and deserves. Dogs are always welcome in my home! I have plenty of space with a fenced in yard and dogs are allowed on the couch and in the bed. I’m easy to work with, patient (some dogs just like to sniff more than they walk), communicative, and can adjust to any preferred care strategy to provide a trustworthy service while you’re away.
“Nicholas was great quick and easy to communicate with. He took our dog Shaka on all his errands for the day (mostly indoors because it was super cold) and hung out with him at his work. Shaka was relaxed and asleep when I collected him.”
“Georgia successfully tired out our energetic, border collie puppy Nancy! She was communicative throughout the day and took Nancy to play in the creek. Thank you!!”
About: I have experience for 40 years with animals. I have had cats, fish, giant dogs, small dogs and all those in between. I have had puppies and seniors, and I love them all. I work for myself so I can be home when I need to be. I can keep your pups routine so they are happy and comfortable. I have a fenced yard and 2 well behaved dogs to keep your fur baby company. I have a crate avlb if your pup is crate trained.
About: I've taken care of fur babies for over 25 years, both cats and dogs. Most have been from rescue organizations and I've raised them from pups/kittens to seniors. I currently have a 12-yr old Pug, Buster, who loves cuddles and going on walks/hikes. I recently moved from Houston to the area and have the ability to work remotely. I have calls during the week but always make sure I have gaps to feed my Pug and play with him during the day. I live in a cabin which has open areas and a shallow river, St. Vrain, but have a gate on the bridge to ensure that my pet does not get to the street. I don't leave my Pug outside by himself keep him on a leash during walks and hikes. Inside of cabin is very open and plenty of space for hanging out and sleeping. Happy to share more photos as needed.
“Emilie helped us out tremendously with some last minute day care. She's quick to respond, friendly, and I felt at ease leaving our pup with her. Two big thumbs up from us!”
About: I am a total animal person :) I love all animals and especially dogs. I treat all dogs as if they were my own companion. I love to reward them with high quality treats and natural peanut butter. I grew up taking care of all types of animals. I had chinchillas, rabbits, dogs, hamsters, fish etc.. I have been training dogs for 28 years and have watched and read a lot of dog training videos and books. Lennon was a very diificult dog to train because she's incredibly smart, independent and not very food motivated. I understand how to deal with all types of personalities/ quirks and needs from my wide range of dogs I have cared for. I have watched 14 year old standard poodles with a lot of anxiety and medical issues, to a shy mini poodle or a collie that wants to chase Lennon all day every day. Also my dog Lennon has severe allergies and very sensitive skin etc. so she takes medicine daily and I give her probiotics and am always watching to make sure she's not having a bad reaction. She has gone into anaphylaxis twice and luckily I knew the signs and was able to get her to the vet just in time to save her life. I take dog care very seriously because of this, if I notice any change in behavior or red eyes etc. I will notify you immediately and see what the course of action should be. I value giving pet owners peace of mind because I know what it is like to be worried about your animal while traveling and theres no worse feeling. I love to send lots of pictures and videos so you never have to wonder how your pup is doing. I watched dogs on Rover for 2 years before in Georgia when I was married and unfortunately it was all booked under my ex's profile so you can't see all my reviews. I take my Aussie-doodle Lennon for daily walks and have multiple playtime sessions daily with fetch balls, plush toys, doing tricks, playing tug a war etc. I also have a big comfy couch downstairs I love to snuggle with my pup on. When the weather is nice I love to go on dog friendly hikes during (between 1-4 miles) nothing too crazy especially if it is hot outside. If your dog is snuggly, I offer snuggles. If they are play oriented I offer tons of play and my pup Lennon LOVES to play and chill (she's very insanely emotionally intelligent). She knows when to play and when to relax - which I love about her. I will always take dogs for walks (weather permitting) and take them out to potty every 3-4 hours minimum.
About: I grew up with animals (even cows!) and am a reliable, loving caretaker for you fur babies while you are away. I treat them like they're my own and understand how important our pets/ babies are to all of us as owners! I have plenty of time and work remote running my own business as a health coach. My availability is 24/7, as I can work my hours around what else is needed. Like it is my own. I want to guarantee safety and loving care while you are away, whether it be special edits, meds, walking a lot, taking them to groomers, and or the dog park.
About: I’ve been in love with dogs since I can remember, and my favorite type of work/volunteering has always involved them. When I was 15 I started dog sitting for my family friend, I watched and walked little Johnny twice a week for almost 2 years while his mom was out doing errands. After that, I started volunteering at the LoveJoy Foundation, an animal rescue in California. I walked dogs, cleaned crates, and even helped with vaccinations once a week at adoption events! My time at LoveJoy was one of the most rewarding experiences ever, and it taught me how to work with different types of dogs and different behaviors, including neurodivergent and disabled pups. I have a family dog of my own, sweet Montana, who will always be my best friend no matter how far apart we are. Montana is a bit older now, so we mostly enjoy hanging out on the couch together, but in his prior years I loved taking him on hikes, to the dog beach, and really anywhere that I went. I also have a crested gecko named Axel! I’m currently a junior at CU Boulder, so I do have school during the week but only for about 2-3 hours each day, most of the time I’m home to care for a pup! I absolutely love being outside here in Boulder, it’s too beautiful not to be, so walks and adventures are plentiful! I have a large house for your pup to roam around, but if it’s preferred that he stays in a crate during the day I can accommodate that too! My yard isn’t fenced, but we would have a lot of outside time at the park and on walks exploring all corners of Boulder. I do have experience dog sitting in client’s homes, I know that some dogs are probably more comfortable staying in their own home!
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old and have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from tiny breeds to giant dogs, and from easygoing companions to stubborn pups that need extra patience and understanding. I'm comfortable handling special care needs, including dogs in heat and dogs that wear diapers. My goal is to provide safe, reliable, and personalized care that helps every pet feel comfortable and loved while giving owners peace of mind. Whether your dog needs a fun adventure, extra attention, or specialized care, I have the experience and dedication to meet their unique needs. I am currently at home full time so I am available to give your pup 24/7 care! I am available for boarding and sitting 7 days week. I have a non-fenced in yard but an open grass areas where your dog can play with supervision. I live with three other girls that are home part time. I can accommodate any thing you or your dog needs. I have room for a bed and/or a crate.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for weeks at a time for the past four years in Colorado and Southern California. I love having your pup around as a friend and companion here in boulder, CO! Your dog can expect lots of walks, hikes, playing in our backyard, and many cuddles! I work remotely from home so have time to take your dog out on walks, feed them at the times they are used to, and hang out and play! I have a fenced in backyard and a park right around the corner. I am comfortable taking your dogs on walks and hikes in the area!
“Bretta is incredible! She was so patient and caring for my pup during his stays with her. He was extremely anxious but she was able to help him feel secure while I was away. She did an excellent job of checking in and trying methods to help my dog. We were so lucky to find her and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly caring sitter and an overall quality stay!”
“Perfect stay for our Nina. She was taken for walks, we received photos of Nina’s happy day. Trust worthy person, we highly recommend her. Nina was wagging her tail each morning that they me! Perfection. Thank you for taking good care of Nina!!”
“I’ve been a reoccurring client of Christine’s. She’s been a great pet sitter and friend to my pup. Christine is always accommodating and communicative. I receive several photos, videos and check-ins throughout each visit. I recommend Christine for any pet needs. My pup is always excited to see her and comes home tired from a full day of hikes, walks and play!”
“Allison and John were so amazing and took great care of my doggie. They were also super communicative, took lots of pictures and did two walks. Their home has a really nice backyard. I feel super grateful, thank you Allison and John for taking such good care of Yara 🌸🥹”

About: Hi there! All my life I have been an animal lover and for the last 8 years I have raised my own dog, and taken care of other dogs for families I used to babysit for. I can fit in any lifestyle your pet has, whether they are active or a stay-at-home. I can fit any accommodation as I work from home, love to exercise (so your dog would get plenty of it, if need be), and I'm incredibly flexible and will be normally free to help you more than not. At the same time, I raised my dog since she was a puppy so I do have experience with younger, more energetic dogs and overall I would simply love to help and treat your dogs like family. I hope we can talk soon! I'm super flexible and work from home at the moment so I basically can take care of your dogs whenever you may need it. I will certainly be more free for your dog rather than not! I will care for your pet in your home however you see fit. I do what is asked and can fit any accommodation whether your dog has a lot of needs, or simply needs a walk and some playtime. I'm happy to help however it may be!

About: I have been an avid dog lover since day one. After meeting my family pet, Snowbird, I had found my best friend. Being around animals, especially dogs, brings me great joy and fulfillment. I have been pet sitting and house sitting for friends and family for over a decade now, leaving each creature feeling cared for and loved. I am attentive, considerate, patient and kind to animals. I am not adverse to particular feeding routines, and most certainly not adverse to spoiling a dog with fancy dinner, etc. Lending my services, you can expect prompt care and a happy animal after my visit. My expertise in special circumstances will help with older or special needs pets. I look forward to taking special care of your dog in the near future. My work hours are flexible and I am able to care for dogs morning, noon and night. Being located in the center of town, I am happy to help out with Fort Collins pets throughout the week. I am happy to host your furry ones at my home. There is a large network of walking paths in the neighborhood where I live so there is lots of opportunity for exercise. Also, I'm happy to drop in on your pet during the day for a visit or a walk.
“Brad was super responsive from the beginning of the booking process to the actual service. He arrived on time, was super sweet with our dog and left informative notes. He clearly loves animals and getting out with them. I look forward to having Brad help us out again!”
About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies and older pets. I’m really patient and make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable, whether they’re staying with me or I’m visiting them. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I think that personal care really makes a difference. I’m a student at CU Boulder, and taking care of pets fits really well into my routine. I’m fully available on weekends and love spending time with dogs whenever I get the chance. Unfortunately, having my own dog doesn’t quite fit into my life yet, so I really enjoy caring for dogs through Rover. I live in a large two-story home with plenty of space for pets to play and relax. Although I don’t have a big yard, I love to go on regular walks and play outside as much as possible. Whether in my home or yours i try to give each pet lots of love, attention, and updates to their owner.
About: With three years of experience and a background as a dog groomer, I offer specialized care tailored to your pet's needs. Whether it's looking other them at night or taking them on walks I'm dedicated to ensuring your furry friend feels loved and comfortable throughout their time with me. I am currently working part time but I am available in the mornings and at night! I am very flexible and am able to move around with your schedule as well:) In my home, pets receive personalized attention, regular exercise, and a comfortable environment. For client homes, I adhere strictly to their instructions, maintaining routines, administering medications if needed, and providing updates to owners. Whether in my home or theirs, safety and well-being are my top priorities.
About: I’ve always had a love for animals, especially dogs. I am extremely detail-oriented and respectful of any of all requests! I’ve grown up being the “crazy dog friend” and have always been a go-to for any dog sitting! I spent this whole summer dog sitting my Uncle’s Labrador retriever puppy. Everyday I went over, took her for a walk, played a little and made sure she had water/was fed. While there I also taught her some tricks! During college I would also go to the humane society and walk the dogs every week and give them some love and attention. I’d love the opportunity to meet as many doggos as possible, what an awesome job!❤️ I also am a graphic designer, so I've been drawing pet portraits for the past few years after I found myself missing that connection during quarantine! Feel free to request one and you can check out my previous work on my instagram lilianacaceresdesigns or website lilianacaceres. com /work-1/petportraits I’m currently not working therefore have a lot of time on my hands to help other doggo parents out! I know how hard it can be to make sure your pet has the best and most loving care when you are unable to be there. I’m right in the heart of Boulder so I have easy access to the whole city! I am very detail-oriented, so when it comes to a pet that has specific needs I am very on top of it! I have dog sat for friends and family over the past few years and will respect any and all requests!
“Zane was super helpful taking care of my dog when I was recovering from surgery. He is very knowledgeable about dogs and you can tell he really loves them. He was very in tune and attentive with my pet’s quirks. Which was very helpful in giving her great exercise and enforcing good walking habits. He was flexible if we needed to change a time and a great communicator.”
About: I grew up with animals (even cows!) and am a reliable, loving caretaker for you fur babies while you are away. I treat them like they're my own and understand how important our pets/ babies are to all of us as owners! I have plenty of time and work remote running my own business as a health coach. My availability is 24/7, as I can work my hours around what else is needed. Like it is my own. I want to guarantee safety and loving care while you are away, whether it be special edits, meds, walking a lot, taking them to groomers, and or the dog park.
About: I have a background in veterinary technology and extensive hands-on animal care experience, including administering medications and supporting pets with special needs. I’ve cared for many of my own animals and volunteered with animal rescues abroad. With a flexible schedule alongside my work as a mountain guide, I’m reliable, attentive, and comfortable caring for pets of all ages and medical needs. My schedule is primarily weekdays, as weekends and holidays are typically dedicated to my full-time work. I have excellent weekday availability, especially during the winter months. I care for every pet as if they were my own—calmly, attentively, and with safety as the top priority. I follow your routines closely, maintain a clean and low-stress environment, and provide plenty of enrichment, affection, and exercise as appropriate. With my veterinary technology background, I’m comfortable administering medications and caring for pets with special needs, and I always monitor behavior and health closely so small issues never become big ones.
About: I have had my own beloved dogs for 20+ years, and have experience house-sitting and taking care of pets all over the world! As a creative industries business owner, I have the flexibility of working remotely with WIFI access. I am a neat, quiet and organized homebody, and like to spend my time with books and music in the company of loving creatures. I work remotely, so I have tons of flexibility to care for your animals as you like. I am comfortable with all pet care routines. I love to cuddle and care for your pet and can be trusted to follow instructions well - the daily walks are my zen! I am trustworthy and responsible and your fur baby will love me.
“Jennifer has been my sitter for over a year now. Recently I added a black lab for her to watch as well. Thought the visit she was extremely communicative with both pets as to their needs and how they were doing.”

“Aubrey is amazing and very helpful. Fen is very enthusiastic to be around her and her pets. She has a fenced yard and plenty of room for dogs to run around and play. She was able to pick Fen up and drop him off. I am also rebooking her over Christmas!”
“Nutmeg had a wonderful long weekend with Kim and Fred. She got to explore their backyard and went on walks in the neighborhood. I picked up a happy dog today!”
“Mitzi and Klifton are the absolute best! Super caring and responsible, professional, wonderful to communicate with... I cannot think of a better place to entrust our dog to. Thank you so much!”
“Sarah has watched my two dogs three times now. They LOVE going over to Sarah's house, playing in the yard, and playing with Koko. Communication is great. No complaints, highly recommend.”
“We are grateful for the love and care Alexandra & Jeff plus kids gave to Arley during a long weekend stay. It's always nice to have peace of mind when traveling and we had that with them. Arley was well cared for and happy to see us -- and it was great to see a few pics of Arley doing well in their home. We will book again in the future.”
“Emily is awesome. We've had our dog with her twice and he loves going there. He's made buddies with her sweet dog, Lemon, and Emily takes such great care of him. I am so comfortable leaving Marty with her and Hector!”
“Georgia did a great job with my two dogs, they warmed up to her quickly and I felt that they were safe with her. She was very communicative and sent lots of photos.”
“The most caring, attentive, communicative and easy going sitter I've ever had. She sent photos, status updates and when Zaya wouldn't eat (because she was so nervous to be away from home), she asked about ways to entice her to eat and successfully got her to gobble up her meals. And when my plans changed last minute, she was able to accommodate us for an extra night without any issues. Very grateful to have found a dedicated sitter I can trust so much 🥰”
“Maddy was very professional with great communication. She kept me updated with pictures and videos and it looked like my pup got LOTS of love and attention. Georgia was content and sleepy after pickup, so I know she had a great time and got a workout. Having a fenced backyard is also a big plus. I will definitely take Georgia to Maddy again for sitting.”
“Stephen and his family were great! I can tell my dog had a great time and enjoyed himself. Stephen was cautious of the hot weather and knew my dogs limits. Super appreciative of their flexibility and willingness to adapt pending my dogs injured paw, as well. Appreciated the communication. Would book again!! Thank you so much!”
“We have used a couple different dog sitters over the years, but Kimberly is far and away the best. Our dog Gypsy can be sensitive to change and easily stressed out, but Kimberly was so good with her and making sure she felt comfortable. Gypsy got a ton of daily exercise and cuddles and came home a very happy pup. Kimberly also knew we were a little nervous about leaving Gypsy and texted twice daily with pictures or videos and updates every day of our trip. It was such a relief knowing that our dog was in great hands and was very well taken care of during our absence. We will absolutely use Kimberly again and can’t recommend her enough.”
“Meghan and Hakon are amazing and loved on our pups so much! It was Kinzie’s first stay away and they made her feel so at ease and comfortable in their home. Lincoln is a pro and had a blast. We got plenty of updates and photos and knew our dogs were in great hands. Lincoln and Kinzie look forward to their next stay!”
“Lynn and John are amazing! They not only last minute bailed us out when snow changed our plans but Lynn was awesome about sending plenty of pictures and communication about our girl. And Pippa came home bragging about what a fun time she had! Cannot recommend enough!”
“As always, Indie had a blast playing with all the other dogs - many of them the regular cast of doggie visitors with whom Indie has developed friendships. She even got to go on a fun girls shopping trip with Della + her daughter. Always appreciate all the photos, consistent updates, and knowing Indie is getting so much love and attention. The Boulder community is so lucky to have Della look after the town pups!”
“Kristina was VERY responsive and great with our big old Riley boy. He came home happy and sleepy, like a dog post-vacation should be! We also got a ton of pictures over the weekend of Riley living his best life. Thanks for helping us out, Kristina!”
“Karla is the best! Our dog stayed with her for two weeks. It was the first time we had someone watch him who wasn't family or friends. We immediately he was in the best caring hands. Karla is a pro and took the excellent care of our dog. We got regular updates that let me know he was having a great time. Karla is a wonderful choice for taking care of your fury family member.”
“Buoy was happy and well taken care of while staying with Sidney! She is so flexible on drop off and pick up times. I was so thankful. Always willing to send pictures and updates. Very quick to respond to messages. We will be rebooking a stay soon! So thankful to have a place that Buoy is happy to go to while I’m out of town. The pack that she has welcomed him in seamlessly :)”
“Barbara took amazing care of Isa! We received wonderful pictures and detailed updates throughout the stay. Isa had plenty of playtime with Mel and a ton of time outdoors, running and sniffing around. We will definitely board Isa with Barbara in the future!!”
“Charissa and Colin were great and I got lots of photos of our dog relaxing and getting some walks in. We will definitely reach out to Charissa again the next time we need to leave town without our pup.”
