“Gladys took good care of our 4 year old Bichon Frise. She seemed to be attentive and sent regular updates with pictures, and took him on walks. He seemed to make friends with other dogs she boarded and she gave us peace of mind on our vacation. I recommend for anyone looking for a dog sitter or if you need your dog boarded overnight.”

“She was very thorough and responsive. Very cautious and thoughtful of his health and wellbeing. Our dog is very high anxiety when we leave him.”

“Tara and her family were great with our Gizmo!!!! Tara sent multiple photos of Gizmo during his stay, which made us feel extremely comfortable having him there. This was the first time we left him with someone so we were initially nervous. We will definitely book with her again!!!”

“Imelda did an amazing job watching my German Shepherd. She sent pictures and updates daily, sometimes multiple times. She knew I was nervous going out of town and leaving my dog but she communicated with me regularly which kept me at ease. She provides a nice clean environment for the dogs, dog friendly home with a doggy door so my dog could go outside as needed. I trust her to care for my pets and will only be using her moving forward.”

“Eric was excellent from the first meeting until we picked up our pup. He was friendly, communicative, and clearly cared about our dog. Over the two weeks Maisey was with Eric we received multiple updates and photos and I was never once concerned. We will definitely check with Eric first for any future travel plans.”

“Wally loves his time there, he gets all the walks, play time, and cuddles he could ever want. Joshua and Lindsay are wonderful- super responsive and provide lots of pics and updates!”


About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs of all ages, personalities, and needs. I currently have an 8-year-old cat and an 11-year-old dog that I’ve raised since they were babies, so I understand just how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your pets. In addition to caring for my own animals, I’ve also been involved in the rescue and foster community for years and have helped foster many animals along the way. That experience has taught me how to work with pets who may be shy, anxious, high-energy, senior, or need a little extra patience and love. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, walks, or just a calm presence nearby, I’m happy to meet them where they are and give them the attention they deserve. Pet care has always been a major part of my daily life. Between caring for my own 11-year-old dog and 8-year-old cat, as well as fostering rescue animals over the years, I’m very used to building my schedule around animals and their needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding routines, cuddles, or simply keeping them company and comfortable while their owners are away. I also understand how important consistency and communication are when trusting someone with your pets. I always try to keep pets as comfortable and stress-free as possible by sticking closely to their normal routines. In a client’s home, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, bathroom breaks, meals, fresh water, and any medications or special care they may need. I also make sure owners stay updated with photos and communication so they can feel at ease while away. Because of my experience with both my own pets and foster animals, I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and temperaments — from playful and social to shy or anxious. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, cared for, and loved while their family is away.

“Summer is amazing and our dog Bella loves being there with the other little dogs. We know she is loved when we have to leave her. Thanks Summer.”

“Nicole is great! This is our second time using Nicole and we appreciate how communicative and reliable she is! It's great peace of mind knowing our dog is somewhere safe and in good hands.”

“I cannot say enough about how well Tyran and Sharaya treated our pup Ace. From the communication to the pictures to letting us meet them and their dog ahead of time, my husband and I were so impressed with the level of care they showed. Tyran and Sharaya will be our number one pup sitters any time we need a super caring, sweet, loving family to watch Ace (which is all the time:)). So grateful to have met them!”

“Claudia has a lovely setting for dogs. Montague had playmates and I got photos of him happily romping around her yard. Since Montague is a picky eater, Claudia went out of her way to add little extras to make his food more inviting. Will leave Montague with her again when I fly out of Denver.”

“We had such a great experience with Niki & Josh! They were incredibly flexible with both drop-off and pick-up, which made everything so easy for us. We really appreciated the daily updates and photos, it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Most importantly, our dog came home clearly very well taken care of. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again!”

“We were super worried about having to leave our baby abruptly for a funeral when we had no one to watch her. Felt super safe leaving her with Kristal's family and was super accommodating. Her family took good care of her and she fit right in. Will 10000% be using her again.”

“Norma was so caring for our two large dogs! She has a great yard and doggie door making it super easy for our dogs to feel comfortable. She stayed communicative throughout our booking and sent lots of pictures and videos. I would love to book with her again!”

“Donaji saved me with a last minute booking! She was on time, responsive and very helpful. She was able to give Meli her medication. Would definitely recommend her!”

“Rachel is very dependable! Followed all instructions and sent me written and photo updates every drop in! She’s amazing with my olive (kitty) and will definitely be using her again in the future highly recommend!”


“Ursula was amazing! My kitty cat warmed up to her quite quickly, which is shocking and made us feel like we made the right choice! Ursula was sweet and easy to talk to. She also takes the best pet photos for her check-ins. Will certainly rebook her for future services!”

“The best! I mistakenly gave Heidi the wrong door code, and that still didn't stop her from going later that night to check on my fur babies. I am so greatful for her and the care she gave them. Thank you!”


“Maggie was great. She communicated well and keep us updated with everything about our fur babies. She took lots of good pictures of the pups. Will definitely book Maggie again for our future needs.”

About: A true animal lover! I have several years of pet care experience. When boarding, I will take your pups for walks, we will have an abundance of playtime and of course get in as many cuddles as possible. I know how hard it is to trust someone with your furbaby. I can assure you your pup will be safe with me. I have a small fenced yard and am 5 minutes walking distance from a huge dog friendly park. *Please note* I have 1 dog that will not be on the property while caring for your pups. My dog Herman goes to spend time with his favorite uncle when I am sitting/boarding. I live conveniently only 20 minutes away from Denver International Airport! Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I work from home full time. This allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, pets are cared for in a calm, loving environment where they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special instructions you provide so they feel secure and at ease. I have a small fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and I’m also just a five minute walk from a large dog friendly park where pets can enjoy exercise and fresh air. Inside the home, pets are always supervised and treated like part of the family.
About: Pet care is self care!! I’ve had pets since as long as I can remember and have gravitated towards animals (and they to me) my whole life. I am a registered nurse with 11 years of experience caring for critically ill people; and am taking a step away from full time patient care to care for my favorite people, ANIMALS! Caring for animals (and plants) really is my self care; it brings me so much joy to connect with and care for animals of all kinds. I have cared for dogs, cats, guinea pigs and plants (which is also an area expertise of mine). I have experience caring for and loving animals of all ages and can give oral medications, am comfortable giving medications via other routes if we discuss this process first. I’m not sure why I didn’t start a career with animals much sooner than now because I enjoy animals more so than I do people (I think this also stems from being at the bedside with people, especially during the pandemic). I will love and respect your pet as I would my own. I will respect your home and ensure the safety of your family by wearing a mask and washing my hands frequently. I look forward to being one of your animal’s favorite people. I have a very flexible schedule so let me know what works for you! With the exception of after 5 pm when our daughter winds down for bedtime. I will not be offering pet care services at my house because I have a dog that loves people but doesn’t enjoy being around other dogs I would be happy to care for your pets in your home as needed. If there are pets other than cats or dogs there will be a separate charge that I will request via Venmo since there is no way to charge for this on Rover. The cost of this will depend on the number of animals and the maintenance/care they will require, please reach out with questions. In addition, if there are requests for other house duties, I.e. shoveling, laundry I will add-on a surcharge per request via Venmo.
About: I was raised with dogs since a little girl. I have done dog sitting for family and friends for the past 5 years and love it so much. Pet Care fits into my daily routine because I work from home full time and I'm able to give them all the attention and care that they need during their stay with me. I have a fenced yard and three other girl dogs that will keep your pet company. My back yard is dog friendly. I keep it clean with toys and dog beds. I currently work from home, I’m my own company owner and have flexible schedule. I’m available at anytime. And this is the reason I am open to same-day appointments as needed. I am 100%, a dog, an animal lover for me a furry pet is part of the family and I treat them as my own!

“Corey was fantastic! She was very gentle and caring with my cats and quick to ask any questions if she needed any clarification. I have a cat who is scared of his own shadow and even he felt comfortable enough to interact with her! It’s incredibly evident how much she cares for animals and I am very pleased with how she cared for mine!”

“Thank you so much for taking care of my babies! They clearly felt comfortable with you (as much as cats do with anyone). It’s awesome knowing I can leave confident that my babies are in good hands with you.”


About: Hi there! I'm a dedicated sophomore in college with years of hands-on experience in pet sitting, overnight boarding, cat walking, animal medicine administration and more! I've had the privilege of working with pets with diverse needs, such as those who are deaf, disabled, or highly energetic; I thrive in creating safe, fun, and engaging environments for all animals and pets! Whether you're a busy professional or someone simply in need of a break, I'm here to make your life easier. I've supported parents in high-demand careers like travel nursing, medicine, law, and more, helping them juggle their professional and personal lives. By choosing me, you're getting someone who is not only responsible and compassionate but also committed to giving your pets the best care possible while offering you peace of mind. Let me help you take a load off!

About: I have done multiple cat drop ins and cat boardings, they are so sweet and loving and have taken care of cats for my friends and neighbors during my youth. For cat boardings or drop ins I clean their litter box daily unless told other wise. I can administer oral medication if needed.
“Liv is the BEST ever. We left our 1 year old rescued Tabby in an empty house and Olivia provided drop in visits every day. She loved our baby, sent pictures, made sure he came home every day, cuddled with him, and filled his food and water. She even let us know he was getting lonely on the day we came home. Olivia is just awesome, we are so lucky we met her.”

About: I have always had dogs and cats since I was a kid and am an avid pet lover. My husband and I got our current yellow lab, Lucy, 5 and a half years ago and do everything with her. She is friendly with every dog she meets and would love getting to spend time with your Pup. I have gone through lots of individualized dog training with my pets and am more than happy to make any adjustments needed for your pup. I am currently unemployed and looking to supplement my day spending time with dogs! My favorite places to go with my dog is the Westminster off-leash dog park, which is 470 acres and other on-leash hikes off of 70. Whatever is best for your dog, I can accommodate. I am an avid dog lover and love all breeds, and I live with my husband who is always excited to spend time with pets. We have a cat who mostly keeps to herself, but would prefer dogs who are non-aggressive to cats. Our neighborhood has safe sidewalks for daily walks, and our house has a fully 6 foot fenced backyard with a dog door for regular access. We have an extra dog crate too if your dog prefers sleeping in a crate.

About: I’ve successfully raised 3 kittens from very young ages, all rescues. I’ve also worked with aggressive cats, senior kitties, and kittens. I am not comfortable administering medication to pregnant cats or kittens, oral or injected. Otherwise, I’ll take care of whoever!

“Maria went up and above in the care of our pets! Never have I felt more reassured, knowing Maria fed, cleaned, and cared for my pets during my absence. She also brought packages in and cleaned the area in the kitchen that had been left messy by my husband. Thank you Maria! Will be using you for future leaves!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, for as long as I can remember. My dogs have always been like another member in my family. I’ve even fostered dogs who just needed a loving home to learn how to trust again before moving on to their forever homes. The comfort and companionship is what I love! I currently work from home so your pup will be provided with round the clock care and attention. I am not tied to my desk so I have the ability to take walks and truly spend time with your pup. I have a fenced yard and my own super friendly black lab. Your pup will get all of the attention and playtime they need at my home.

“I originally booked Charlie for pet sitting but our new puppy guarded a toy during the meet and greet so we suddenly felt unsure. Charlie offered a pet sit to see if it was nerves and something we could work past. She was patient with Partner and provided updates and a million photos. Thank you!”

About: I’ve managed a doggy daycare and have taken care of many pups in the last 5 years! I’m also CPR and first aid certified for pups! I’m available Monday-Sunday. If a time is needed before 3 pm for a drop in or walk please let me know 3 days in advance just so there isn’t any miscommunication and I can be sure if the time works. House sitting I am available any day of the week, just need to know 3 days in advance. I do also have a 1 year old who goes with me when I house sit. I can do in house daycare, but I will ask that you provide proof of vaccines for your pup to help keep my two pups and yours safe! I do also have an autistic brother and then my son who is toddler in the home, so your pup will have to do well with kids and dogs! This same rule will apply for in house boarding as far as vaccines go and keeping in mind that there are children in my home 😊 During drop ins and dog walks I am pretty flexible, so whatever is needed for your pup, as long as I may access it in your home then I can get it done! Unless of course it’s an emergency of some sort then I will take the necessary steps to figure it out and keep you up to date!
“Marisa took such good care of Charlie during our short time in Denver. I booked her last minute and she was so responsive and communicative. I felt very comfortable having Charlie with her. Marisa sends pictures throughout the day. I highly recommend Marisa as your dog sitter!”

“We've booked with Imelda about 5 times now for overnight stays and daycare for Gracie our Jack Russell terrier. Imelda is very friendly, organized and obviously loves dogs! Gracie is well cared for and eager to meet the other 2 or 3 dogs that are usually there. It's great to know that we have a safe and happy place for Gracie to stay when the need arises.”

“Claudia and her family is so sweet! I can tell they take care of any fur babies that come and stay. Thank you so much for taking in my Queen Bea!”

About: Aside from my own dogs that I've had my whole life, I have also watched friends' and neighbors' dogs since middle school. I've taken care of dogs of all ages and breeds, and honestly, there hasn't been a single one I have not loved. I take pride in saying that I will watch your dog as if they were my own. I have experience with dogs who have medical conditions as well, such as arthritis, seizures, restricted diets, etc. I'm currently just a stay-at-home mom of one baby boy and one fur baby boy. We love getting out of the house every day and walking, or going to the park, and we always love to have some extra company! I am a stay-at-home mom so that leaves me a lot of time to play with your fur babies and love on them. This also allows me to follow any schedules that your dog may want or need to follow. Also, my dog loves to go out back, and run around or sunbathe, very often so that means that there are very frequent potty break for your dogs as well! I have fenced yard and a super active fur baby and a toddler. My dog is always happy to run circles or play tug of war, and my toddler is always happy to throw a Frisbee or ball for any and all dogs (whether they are interested or not). As for me, I am happy to offer cuddles and companionship for your fur babies. I know it's hard to leave your dogs behind, but it is also hard for them as well. My goal is to make them feel as at home as possible. For example, dogs often do not want to eat when they miss their owners, so I try to alleviate this by adding rice or chicken to their food (with parents permission, of course).
“My gsp loved being at Daviana’s! Our pups got along so well, and she made my pup feel right at home. Super communicative and flexible with scheduling. Will book with her again!”

“Kelsey responded quickly when I needed a sitter in a pinch. She was flexible with my drop off time (which was early) and pick up. She sent lots of adorable photos of my puppy with her cats. My puppy was recently spayed and Kelsey did a great job making sure she wasn't jumping/doing anything to harm her stitches. She was my first Rover experience and was awesome! I will definitely reach out to her next time I need someone to watch Mochi.”

About: my current dog has suffered with an abusive owner before I rescued him and before he did not want me to touch him or pet him but now he never wants to be let go! lol I personally think it will help me so much to be more responsible with my daily routines and to learn also to be an adult now that I'm 18. But of course there is nothing to worry about because I will take care of your dogs like they were my own! Your dog gets a secure, loving space at my home with constant supervision, a fenced yard, and my full attention the entire stay. He/She will enjoy their time here at my home.
“Aly did such an amazing job with my pups! She made me and them feel so comfortable and was great at communicating. Will definitely use again and highly recommend. Thank you Aly!!”

About: I’ve lived with and cared for all types of dogs and cats since I was a young child. I care for friends and family member’s pets throughout the years. My family and I love animals and are dedicated to providing a caring and fun environment for your pet. I work from home and have plenty of time to walk and play with pups. We love our pups and kitty and walk Mollie and Hollie at least a mile everyday. We have a large park with a lake full of interesting smells for pups to explore. We are used to dietary restrictions and can adapt to any personality. You can drop your pet off and relax knowing they are cared for by a loving family. I currently work from home so I have plenty of time to take multiple walks a day and play in the yard with your pup. We feed our animals in the morning and evening and we all snuggle together on the bed at night. I have a fenced in yard and a dog door so your pup may go in and out as often as they like. Some pups can’t figure out the dog door so I am here to let them in and out as needed. We take at least one long walk a day and play fetch in the yard. Pups are welcomed to sleep in our room if they are more comfortable there.
About: I have experience with all age groups. I love to spoil them. My husband has said that dogs can sense a dog lover. All dogs need love. We do not have any pets right now and I miss them terribly. Our dogs were spoiled with love. I currently work full time, usually swing shift (2:00-12:30) a vacation relief line with my job. I will have my husband available for support since he is retired. I/we have a big fenced in back yard so they can run around and play. There are plenty of toys for your kiddos to enjoy.
About: “NEAR DIA” I have such a deep appreciation for pets of all kinds, their unconditional love and endless enthusiasm genuinely make the world a brighter and happier place, I have had pets as long as I can remember, the joyful wag of a dog's tail, their simple presence is a constant source of comfort and warmth. I will make sure I love your furry baby as my own. If you are looking for someone you can trust to care for your baby, please reach out to me. I would love to care for your baby. I used to work in the healthcare field and took care of my patients like they were my own parents, now that I’m a stay at home mom, I am here to care for your furry baby like my own. I live by DIA so if you’re traveling, I’m on your way for your convenience too. Thank you! ☺️ Hope to be the lucky one 🐶♥️ As a stay-at-home mom, full time presence at home has created the perfect environment to welcome your furry babies into our home and lives. ☺️ As of right now I don’t have a fenced yard, but I will take them on walks, and I have my own furry sweet boy that will keep your pup company, I also have two sweet cats at home. I’ll send pictures and communicate often so you have peace of mind on how your pet is doing ☺️
“Nathalie and Manny are awesome. My furry best friend of 14+ years enjoys his stays with them. They are communicative and very good about working with your situation. I will continue to book them for any of my sitter needs.”

About: Hi! My name is Juzette and I'm a stay at home mom. My family and I are new to Colorado and had just moved here from Guam about 3 year ago, so I have A LOT of time to spend chilling with your pets, plus we live 10 minutes away from DIA! I have pet care experience from working at an animal hospital and as well as a pet daycare, ranging from puppies to senior dogs (cleaning, feeding, walking and giving medication). Our little family does very well with pets. I've had pets for as long as I can remember and have been known to foster and bring home strays when I was a child. Please refer to my Boarding calendar for Daycare availability (I may forget to update the daycare calendar 😅), but if you're still unsure please feel free to send me a message anyway! I am available anytime after lunch throughout the whole week, although I may be able to accommodate earlier times or late nights if needed :) I only accept one pet at a time as I understand many of them are reactive towards other pets. I want your pet to feel safe in our home. All you need to bring is your pet's food, medication, and any toys. I have food/water bowls and kennels if your pet normally sleeps in one :)
“Heather and James took the best care of our babies for the day! We also asked them to take our older girl last minute and they were super accommodating. They looked like they had the best day. Murray is the sweetest most welcoming boy and Heather and James are so easy to communicate with. Highly recommend for your fur babies!”

About: Hi! I’m Tara, a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust, and my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs and cats through overnight stays and drop-in visits, and I’m comfortable adapting to your pet’s routine and individual needs. If your pet requires special care, medications, or extra attention, I’m happy to discuss this beforehand. My home includes two friendly small dogs, and I live in a quieter area with access to nearby parks and walking trails which is great for exercise. I’m insured, prioritize safety, and provide attentive care with regular updates so you can have peace of mind while away. Whether your pet loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or a calm environment, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member!

“Donaji and Oreo are the sweetest! I wish I could leave a higher review! Donaji was amazing with my corgi! She is trustworthy with my animal and my home. She took great care of Lewis and was considerate of neighbors wishes as well. I truly can't say enough positive things about her! She showed up for every appointment and took my dog on a one mile walk per day. We will absolutely be utilizing her services again soon.”

“Imelda walked my dog 3x per week for about 4 months while I recovered from a broken leg. She did an outstanding job, and took a huge load off my shoulders while I was out of it. My dog loved her and came home from each walk so happy! I would highly recommend Imelda for your needs and would absolutely use her services again if the need arises!”

“Mrs. Charlie has been phenomenal and so reliable! Our dog Nala loves her. There was one last minute change to my schedule and Mrs. Charlie was flexible and understanding. Each visit she was sent me detailed notes with pictures of my dog. I feel so comfortable knowing she’s well taken care of by someone who genuinely loves animals. I highly recommend her!”

About: I started taking care of friends’ dogs when I was in high school when they went on vacations. I would walk and brush their dog daily. I also help to take care of my parents dog when they are out of town where she stays with my husband and I. We love to have pets over and being able to cuddle and go on walks! My mornings are free for early walks and on my off days I am available for plenty of long walks to keep your doggo active! I live in a condo with plenty of pathways and parks nearby for exercise. There is only one flight of stairs to get inside. We have plenty of space to roam and can easily crate your dog if they need to stay over.
“I'm so grateful to have found Kiyara to stop in to walk my senior dog while I'm at work! He needs more consistent interaction and bathroom breaks these days as well as mid-day medication. Kiyara was flexible with my work schedule, showed up exactly when expected, and was able to administer Rocky's meds. I can't wait to keep working with her!”

About: My promise is to love your dog as much I love mine! I can walk with them and not rush. Dogs need to smell the roses ... grass .... their corner ... yes, take it all in! I've only walked my dog and daughter's so I'm relatively new to doggies. A dog will always always see a person's love and heart. I hope you have dog poop bags .... it's a pet peeve of mine. I truly believe in being a poop svooper. Take the memories with you, leave nothing behind! Allow me to watch your fur baby just like I take care of mine! I will also provide a quick description of dog's activities while I care for them which gives you peace. XO

About: I am a registered nurse and have a remote job so have lots of flexibility to care for your beloved pet! I can take lots of potty/exercise breaks with dogs as I have a fenced in yard and live next to a park for walks. I have owned both cats and dogs over the years and helped with pet sitting for both. I have experience in giving insulin to a senior dog, and helped to separate fussy animals at mealtimes. I also live super close to the airport so you can drop off your pet on the way to your flight and park in front of my house if needed. I am willing to drive up to 25 miles for house sitting visits. I hope to meet you and your fur baby soon and alleviate stress of finding a trustworthy person to care for them while you are away! I will always send lots of pictures and update you every step of the way :) I work from home and my boss is very lenient so I can step away for walks or play time! I am very flexible and live near Green Valley Ranch area. Happy to travel to you or do overnights stays in your home if that works best for your schedule. I have a house and live right next to a park for long walks. My home is open to cats and dogs needing a place to stay. No pets currently at the home so your pet will fell welcome and loved!

I love to play with them, take them on walks, give them treats and the love the need. I have babysat many dogs and cats during my time here on Rover, all amazing experiences with my clients and their furry friends. I am responsible in time management and responsive communication.

“Logan was an excellent dog walker. She treated our dogs so well, especially our one who has a lot of anxiety. Logan made her feel safe and was able to have good rapport with her quickly! We will definitely reach out to Logan in the future for more walks.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years now! I volunteered at Shelter Hope in Thousand Oaks, CA for 3 years. Growing up, my family had 2 amazing dogs. I plan on adopting a dog of my own when the time is right. I absolutely LOVE animals, they hold a special place in my heart. I have experience walking dogs, feeding dogs, playing with dogs, and picking up after them. I’m very loving, caring & dependable! I was working full time as an Esthetician, but I’m currently between jobs so I have plenty of free time to care for your pups! My availability is completely open as of right now. I would be able to give your dog a great walk in any neighborhood of your choosing! I’m able to come to your house and do a drop by visit, stay & watch your dog for you as needed, or watch over them at my apartment. I’m flexible!
About: Hi dog people! I’m a boarder for Rover because I love animals and have a sweet spot for dogs. I’m a long time dog and cat owner that loves dog park adventures and nice walks around the neighborhood. Let me know if there’s anything you’re worried or concerned about. Im super honest and very open about anything that would be of concern to you or your furry friend! I work from home so I’m always here to watch or take care of any boarded animals. When I leave for short periods I ensure the animals are safe and secured. My pets roam freely within the house. While I am home, I keep my dogs on the main level. This way I can keep an eye on them while allowing some freedom.
“Elizabeth is an outstanding dog walker. It is obvious that she loves my dog and is enthusiastic about walking her which she has done several times. Charley looks forward to her walks and comes back happy. Elizabeth is a positive person, always on time, tells me how the walk went, and interacts with Charley in a caring way in words and action. I would certainly recommend Elizabeth for all dog walking work and for her pleasant personality.”

“Gladys took good care of our 4 year old Bichon Frise. She seemed to be attentive and sent regular updates with pictures, and took him on walks. He seemed to make friends with other dogs she boarded and she gave us peace of mind on our vacation. I recommend for anyone looking for a dog sitter or if you need your dog boarded overnight.”

“She was very thorough and responsive. Very cautious and thoughtful of his health and wellbeing. Our dog is very high anxiety when we leave him.”

“Tara and her family were great with our Gizmo!!!! Tara sent multiple photos of Gizmo during his stay, which made us feel extremely comfortable having him there. This was the first time we left him with someone so we were initially nervous. We will definitely book with her again!!!”

“Imelda did an amazing job watching my German Shepherd. She sent pictures and updates daily, sometimes multiple times. She knew I was nervous going out of town and leaving my dog but she communicated with me regularly which kept me at ease. She provides a nice clean environment for the dogs, dog friendly home with a doggy door so my dog could go outside as needed. I trust her to care for my pets and will only be using her moving forward.”

“Eric was excellent from the first meeting until we picked up our pup. He was friendly, communicative, and clearly cared about our dog. Over the two weeks Maisey was with Eric we received multiple updates and photos and I was never once concerned. We will definitely check with Eric first for any future travel plans.”

“Wally loves his time there, he gets all the walks, play time, and cuddles he could ever want. Joshua and Lindsay are wonderful- super responsive and provide lots of pics and updates!”


About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs of all ages, personalities, and needs. I currently have an 8-year-old cat and an 11-year-old dog that I’ve raised since they were babies, so I understand just how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your pets. In addition to caring for my own animals, I’ve also been involved in the rescue and foster community for years and have helped foster many animals along the way. That experience has taught me how to work with pets who may be shy, anxious, high-energy, senior, or need a little extra patience and love. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, walks, or just a calm presence nearby, I’m happy to meet them where they are and give them the attention they deserve. Pet care has always been a major part of my daily life. Between caring for my own 11-year-old dog and 8-year-old cat, as well as fostering rescue animals over the years, I’m very used to building my schedule around animals and their needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding routines, cuddles, or simply keeping them company and comfortable while their owners are away. I also understand how important consistency and communication are when trusting someone with your pets. I always try to keep pets as comfortable and stress-free as possible by sticking closely to their normal routines. In a client’s home, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, bathroom breaks, meals, fresh water, and any medications or special care they may need. I also make sure owners stay updated with photos and communication so they can feel at ease while away. Because of my experience with both my own pets and foster animals, I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and temperaments — from playful and social to shy or anxious. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, cared for, and loved while their family is away.
“Nicole is great! This is our second time using Nicole and we appreciate how communicative and reliable she is! It's great peace of mind knowing our dog is somewhere safe and in good hands.”

“I cannot say enough about how well Tyran and Sharaya treated our pup Ace. From the communication to the pictures to letting us meet them and their dog ahead of time, my husband and I were so impressed with the level of care they showed. Tyran and Sharaya will be our number one pup sitters any time we need a super caring, sweet, loving family to watch Ace (which is all the time:)). So grateful to have met them!”

“Claudia has a lovely setting for dogs. Montague had playmates and I got photos of him happily romping around her yard. Since Montague is a picky eater, Claudia went out of her way to add little extras to make his food more inviting. Will leave Montague with her again when I fly out of Denver.”

“We had such a great experience with Niki & Josh! They were incredibly flexible with both drop-off and pick-up, which made everything so easy for us. We really appreciated the daily updates and photos, it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Most importantly, our dog came home clearly very well taken care of. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again!”

“Norma was so caring for our two large dogs! She has a great yard and doggie door making it super easy for our dogs to feel comfortable. She stayed communicative throughout our booking and sent lots of pictures and videos. I would love to book with her again!”

“Hayley, Nicholas, and their boys took wonderful care of our pup, Ada. She looked so comfortable and relaxed with them. It was clear right from the meet and greet how invested they were in learning about Ada and doing their best to care for her while we were out of town. They also sent frequent updates and pictures. We will definitely board Ada with Hayley and her family again in the future and highly recommend that you consider them as well.”

“This was our second time working with Scott and Rachel, and they were wonderful! They watched Brewster over our wedding weekend and we knew he was in great hands with them. He got lots of love and exercise and came back a tired pup.”

“I felt so safe having Pat and John watch Denver! They provided many updates with pictures and videos. I would definitely recommend and I will be using them again in the future!”

“Thomas was wonderful with our dog Buster. Buster stayed with Thomas at his home for 6 nights and throughout the visit Thomas stayed in contact and shared pictures. Buster enjoyed his big backyard and plenty of walks. Would highly recommend Thomas.”
