“Our dog had a wonderful time at Aubrey’s house. He had lots of furry friends to play with, spent time exploring outside and received many cuddles and love. Aubrey was wonderful at sending daily updates and pictures. Our pup came back exhausted from all the fun he had. Can’t wait to use Aubrey again next time we are away!”
“Georgia took great care of Zia! She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. She handled Zia's special diet and medications with ease and was very attentive to all her needs. Highly recommend!”
“Could not have asked for a better weekend-stay for my dog! I was worried he wouldnt want to come home haha Received great updates all weekend and my pup was happy as a clam!”
“Misty is a great pet sitter! She sent me frequent updates throughout the day about my cat, with pictures. I really appreciated that Misty played with my cat several times during the day to ensure he was entertained. Misty followed my instructions to the T which helped me feel confident in leaving my pet in her care. I could tell that my cat felt comfortable with Misty too. For the most part, my cat hides when he goes to a sitter’s house. At Misty’s house my cat spent sometime hiding but quickly came out and played with his toys!”
About: My dog is my top priority, and yours will be too! I’m able to take your dog on hikes, runs, and have some fun time with my 2 year old husky/heeler mix. Lots of cuddles, exercise, and fun time, while ensuring proper dog to dog boundaries. I have experience caring for dogs from puppies to seniors. I work from home full time, and so am able to provide care for your pets throughout the day. My home is best for small and medium dogs (up to 60lbs). I am unable to care for dogs under 1 year old. Additionally your dog must be: 1) dog friendly, with no history of aggression towards dogs 2) people friendly 3) house trained 4) sleeps through the night I have a fenced yard and one playful two year old husky/heeler mix. Care can include yard play time, leashed walks, hikes, or runs, depending on the needs of your dog! I am also able to keep up with training and obedience with your dog, whether that includes reactivity, leash walking, jumping etc. A meet and greet is required before I am able to book new dogs.
“Maggie took such great care of my dog. From multiple updates a day and long walks to tire my pup out, I knew my dog was in good hands. She seemed so happy in the videos Maggie sent me and it was even hard for my dog to leave when the time came to go home. She was so incredibly flexible with pickup and drop off as well. Couldn't have asked for a better sitter would definitely use Maggie again.”
“Elise and Matthew took such great care of our dog while we were away. It’s so comforting to have kind, reliable, trustworthy people to rely on for our dog when we are gone. Thank you both!”
“Tigran was a great sitter for my active dog Dorsey! I really appreciated him taking him out to play with his other dogs and sharing videos. He was easy to communicate with! Thank you Tigran!”
“Della welcomed Goose in to her family and took exceptional care of him. We are lucky to have found her and we look forward to using her again in the future.”
“Emily took wonderful care of our pup Mara. We reached out very last minute for a weekend sitting request, and Emily even found time to meet us for a meet and greet the day before we dropped Mara off. She sent regular updates on how Mara was doing, and she was clearly having a great time with her, Emily’s dog Osito, and Emily’s son. Would 100% book with Emily again!”
“Amy was great to work with! She gave Dixie a lot of love and attention with lots of updates! You can tell she loves dogs and is attentive to details. Would definitely recommend and would leave my girl with her anytime!”
“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!”
“Madeline took wonderful care of George during our wedding weekend! We needed some extra help since George was a part of our big day. Maddy helped make sure that George was exercised, and then transferred to our wedding day handler. George had a great time, we had a bunch of pictures that made us feel good and everything was super smooth. Would 100% recommend!”
“Shanik is amazing! She sent us photos during our trip so we knew our boy was being well taken care of, and she totally treated him like one of her own! It was so comforting to know he was with her. We even had to rearrange travel plans and she was flexible, understanding, and happy to care for him longer than expected. We would certainly leave our pup with her anytime.”
About: I absolutely love dogs. All dogs, period. I have a deep understanding of each dog's unique needs, quirks, and preferences, and I make sure to give a tailored experience that goes beyond routine tasks. I strive to create a home away from home for your dogs and make sure they are comfortable as well as you. I currently work in the early afternoons with two days off during the week with full availability. I am an early bird and can be there for your dog as early as 6:30am until about 12:00pm. Safe Space: Designate a specific area or room for the pet, providing them with a sense of security. Exercise and Playtime: Engage in regular play sessions and take your pet for walks or provide a secure outdoor space for them to explore. Social Interaction: Spend quality time with your pet to prevent loneliness and anxiety. Provide toys and enrichment activities to keep them mentally stimulated. Emergency Plan: Be prepared for emergencies by having a first aid kit and knowing the location of the nearest veterinary clinic.

“Tegan was fantastic! She was able to accommodate our request at the last minute and took great care of our dog. She sent a few photos and updates that showed us how much fun Copper was having while we were gone. Would highly recommend!”

“Falecia was great at taking care of our 2 cats while we were out of town! She responded to questions quickly and was willing to drive up to our house in the foothills.

We will definitely use her again next time we need kitty care!”

“Jennifer did such a fabulous job caring for my two cats while we were away! They have radically different personalities and energy levels and Jennifer did such a wonderful job meeting their individual needs and making sure they got all the attention and play they needed. She also took the most beautiful photos of our guys. I always get nervous when we have to leave them alone but her promptness, relaxed personality, and attention to detail really put us at ease. I would definitely recommend Jennifer!”
“Brian was lovely and very communicative. He sent pictures to us daily and our pets were happy and well cared for when we returned. I'll definitely be using Brian for all my pet sitting needs in the future!”
About: I have been taking care of my own, and neighbors cats for as long as I can remember.

About: I’ve been lucky enough to share my home with dogs & cats my whole life, and would love to care for your fur babies overnight in your home, drop-in for walks or spend time giving loving attention & meals. I live in the Nederland area and have a 4wd vehicle with high clearance, so no problems navigating mountain life for your pets! I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes of dog - I’ve raised rescue pups to mature gentleman & well-mannered ladies, and they’ve ranged in size from a 100lbs Golden Retriever/Chow mix to a 13lbs Pug/Shitzu. I’m a stay at home pet momma with a flexible schedule that allows me to can care for your fur babies overnight in your home. I live on five unfenced acres and walk my two dogs (always on leash) around Nederland, Sugarloaf, and surrounding areas of the Canyons. I’d be happy to go on leashed walks/hikes with your doggos! or if you have a yard, I’d be happy to watch your pup closely as we enjoy unleashed play time. I am accustomed to and prepared for mountain life and the variables it brings (wildlife, weather, fires, etc.).
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have helped care for them from when they were puppies through adulthood. Over the years, I’ve helped with daily walks, feeding, playtime, training reinforcement, and making sure they get plenty of attention and exercise. I’ve also helped care for dogs belonging to family members, which has given me experience with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. Growing up with dogs has taught me how important patience, consistency, and understanding each dog’s unique personality is when caring for them. I’m currently a graduate student doing research, which gives me a fairly flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate walks throughout the week. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so fitting dog walks into my daily routine comes naturally. Whether your dog needs a quick walk, regular exercise, or some extra attention during the day, I’ll work to provide reliable and consistent care. When caring for pets, my priority is always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I understand every dog has different personalities, energy levels, and routines, so I try to adapt to what works best for them. Whether in your home or out on walks, I focus on keeping pets safe, giving them plenty of attention, and following any instructions or routines you provide to ensure consistency and trust.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of dogs and cats, from playful puppies to shy and reactive pets. I’ve done everything from daily drop-ins to long-term house sitting and boarding in my home, so I’m confident handling different routines, temperaments, and care needs. I focus on creating a calm, reliable environment where pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their people are away. My goal is always to keep your pet’s schedule consistent and make their time with me feel like a second home. “I’m a full-time student, but pet care fits naturally into my routine. I can provide overnight care, morning walks, and check-ins throughout the day between classes. I’m home most days after 4 pm, so pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and consistency. On weekends, I am home full-time, lots of time for playing, naps, and going out on adventures if that fits into your pet's lifestyle! In my apartment, your pet can be crated or free-roam based on their needs. I live in an apartment and there are no other animals. All outdoor time is always on-leash and closely supervised, your pet and I can play at the park across the street, with lots of grass! My goal is to create a calm, comfortable space where your pet feels secure and cared for.
“I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Leandra! She was professional, responsive, and clearly passionate about animals. She followed all the instructions I provided and I received regular updates including text messages and photos which really put my mind at ease. When I returned home, my cat seemed happy, healthy, and well cared for — and my home was just as I left it. I will definitely hire Leandra again in the future!”

About: Your pet’s bespoke holiday, whilst you’re on holiday. Dog sitters for large breeds or elderly dogs at a 3 acre mountain property in an incredibly dog friendly environment . We take all dogs but specialize in older or extra large breeds. We work from home but are mainly on sabbatical working the land outdoors. Our clients’ dogs become family and look forward to meeting you! I’m on a work break working on my land and home fixes with my husband who just moved over from the UK. We are technology founders and a data scientist . I have 3/4 of an acre fences and 2.5 acres at 9500 ft at the end of a cul de sac with little vehicle traffic
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 had pets my entire life, including cats, dogs, and for the past two years I’ve lived on a farm where I have gained experience caring for many different types of animals. We also double as a kitten rescue, taking in lost and abandoned kittens from newborns through teenagers. We bottle-feed, raise, and care for them until they are healthy, grown, and ready to be adopted into loving homes. I am extremely passionate about healthy and safe animal care and ensure that in my work. I am a college student and recently moved away from home and my farm, and the first priority on my list was getting back into work with animals. Being at CU I am occupied in the mornings and late afternoon. Anywhere between 11am-1pm I am free in between classes, and anytime after 4/5pm at night. I care for pets with patience, attention, and lots of love while making sure they feel safe and comfortable in their environment. Having cared for cats, dogs, reptiles, and a variety of farm animals, I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, providing fresh water, cleaning up after pets, giving them exercise and playtime, and keeping a close eye on their behavior and well-being. Through helping my mom run our farm and caring for rescued kittens, including newborns, I’ve also learned how important it is to be gentle, responsible, and attentive to each animal’s individual needs.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and other pets since I was 10 years old. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels, including large breeds and young puppies. I have experience with feeding routines, walks, basic training reinforcement, enrichment, and keeping pets comfortable and safe. I treat every pet with the same patience, attention, and care I’d want for my own pup, Alice. I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine as much as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, training, and household routines. I’m attentive to changes in behavior and make sure pets receive plenty of exercise, enrichment, affection, and supervision. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“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!”
“Cassidy was amazing. She was so accommodating, helped us with a last minute situation which we’re super thankful for. She was very communicative, punctual, flexible, and my boy absolutely loved her and her dog Rex. She’s a keeper! Thank you sooo much Cassidy!”
About: I volunteered at the local humane society for 4+ years and fostered puppies and adult dogs for the shelter. I also used to work for a dog walking company and have had my own dogs my whole life! I just graduated college, so I am free to love on your pet anytime! I also am active and love having a buddy to come on walks with me. I would treat a clients pet as my own, treating it with the love and attention it deserves. I would treat a clients dog with respect and be attentive to its needs.
About: My family has owned all kinds of animals throughout my life. We’ve had geckos, dogs, cats, fish, and more. My exposure to this wide array of animals makes me the perfect pet sitter for whatever your family needs. I am comfortable with overnight stays, feeding, bathing, drop in visits, and more. Anything your pet needs, I’m happy to provide! I am currently a student at CU Boulder missing my puppies back at home more than anything. I have a pretty light class schedule this semester and would love nothing more than to spend my extra time with your animals! I am located walking distance from Chautauqua park and go there almost daily. I’d love the company of your pups and have sooo much love waiting for them. I have a fenced side yard and love walking distance from many walking trails. If your pets were staying with me, I’d take them on walks daily and be home with them majority of the day to let them out when needed. I also have a large car, so vehicle transportation to/from your home is available. If staying at a clients home, I would make time for whatever is necessary for your pet. I am flexible to your needs and highly adaptable to what works best for you and your pets!
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13, primarily caring for cats and dogs. My experience includes dog walking, feeding, playtime, administering basic routines, and cleaning litter boxes. I’ve especially worked with older cats and dogs, so I understand the extra patience, attentiveness, and gentle care they often need. I also have two cats of my own back home, giving me firsthand experience in daily responsibilities and expectations of being a pet owner. Because of this, I’m very mindful about my care towards your pet! I’m currently a second-year, first-generation student at CU Boulder, balancing school and a Work-Study position. I’m generally available Thursday through Monday after 1 PM and can be flexible with advance notice. When I house sit I treat every home with respect, focusing on your pet while you’re away. I understand leaving your home and furry friend to a stranger can be worrisome so I do my best to comfort your pet and keep your space the way you like it.
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, horses, and a variety of farm animals, giving me experience with pets of all sizes, personalities, and care needs. Although I’ve always cared for pets of friends and family, I am excited to now care for pets at a more professional level through Rover! I’m a bit of a dog breed nerd and genuinely enjoy learning about breed-specific traits, behaviors, and enrichment needs. Whether your pup is a high-energy working breed that needs extra exercise or a laid-back companion who loves cuddles, I tailor my care to what makes them happiest and most comfortable. When your pet is with me, they’ll be treated like family. I believe every animal deserves patience, attention, and plenty of love, and I care for every pet as if they were my own. I am a self employed artist and photographer which allows me to have complete control and flexibility in my schedule to care for animals! I can be available on short notice and can easily work my schedule around the needs of each individual pet! I believe every pet is happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to learn each pet’s schedule, preferences, and individual needs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, enrichment, and affection while ensuring they feel safe and comfortable. I closely follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special care requirements. I’m attentive to body language and behavior changes, allowing me to adapt my care to each pet’s personality and comfort level. As someone who enjoys learning about breed-specific traits and needs, I understand that every dog is different and strive to provide care that matches their energy level and temperament. My goal is to give pet parents the same peace of mind I would want, by treating every animal as if they were my own and keeping them happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away.
About: My love for animals exceeds my love for humans. I have always been the biggest animals person and have owned every animal in the book, from rodents to fish to mammals. I have raised multiple puppies to adulthood, both small dogs like Maltese, and large dogs like pit bulls. I am a renowned hamster sitter who even had baby hamsters at one point, and currently have three fish tanks in my college apartment. Point is I love animals and would love to hang out and give your pet the best time ever! I have a lot of time throughout my day. The longest I am out of the house for pre day is 2 hours for classes occasionally, but other than that I am home and bored. Pet care would easily fit into my schedule to ensure your pet has the best experience with me. Caring for pets in my home would be very simple as I would just aim to make them as comfortable and safe as possible. In terms of pet care at your home, I would be the best house sitter. I will ensure your home will be left in the same condition or cleaner when you return, and will ensure that your pets feels as safe and comfortable as possible.

I work from home so have flexibility in my daily routine. Most afternoons and evenings in particular work well for me for any type of care. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, I focus on creating an environment that matches each animal’s personality and comfort level. I have plenty of engaging ways to channel energy for playful or high energy pets, through walks, games, training reinforcement, or enrichment toys while also providing patience and affection for mellow or cuddly companions who prefer a slower pace. I will treat your pets and your home with the same respect I would give mine!
About: I’ve had pets since I was a little kid and I love being around animals. I got my dog 7 years ago and have loved raising her! I’m currently working part time and have a very flexible schedule.

I create a calm, loving environment by using gentle handling, close supervision, and consistent routines. I build trust by taking the time to get to know each pet’s personality, keeping you updated with messages and photos, and treating your pet like my own.
About: Having grown up with all sizes of dogs from a Jack Russell Terrier to a Collie, I am familiar with many different sizes and temperaments of dogs. I currently own a beautiful two year old rescue who absolutely loves other dogs. I started dog walking and house sitting for neighbors when I was 16 years old and then moved into making it my full time job. I've worked for various pet supply stores and dog boarding facilities and currently work at a holistic dog store in Boulder, CO. I am certified in pet nutrition as well as CPR for Canines and have some experience administering medication. I love being able to tire out dogs with play, knowing that is what I would expect and want from a pet sitter or walker myself. Working with dogs is a highlight of my day and i would love to work with yours.
About: I love dogs (and cats!) of all personalities and especially love being active with them, such as going on hikes or jogs, playing fetch, or simply hanging out at the park. I love getting to know each animal's unique personality and learning what makes them them! I am available outside of the following hours: 2-4:30pm Monday-Friday, 5:30-7pm Mondays and Thursdays, and 4-6pm on Wednesdays. Other than these times, I am free to be booked! I have a large, fenced in yard with no other pets, which is great if your pet has trouble around other animals. I also live very close to North Boulder park! And when I am caring for your animal at your home, I am mindful of private spaces and boundaries, and I always make sure to entirely clean up after myself.
About: I’ve been lucky enough to share my home with dogs & cats my whole life, and would love to care for your fur babies overnight in your home, drop-in for walks or spend time giving loving attention & meals. I live in the Nederland area and have a 4wd vehicle with high clearance, so no problems navigating mountain life for your pets! I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes of dog - I’ve raised rescue pups to mature gentleman & well-mannered ladies, and they’ve ranged in size from a 100lbs Golden Retriever/Chow mix to a 13lbs Pug/Shitzu. I’m a stay at home pet momma with a flexible schedule that allows me to can care for your fur babies overnight in your home. I live on five unfenced acres and walk my two dogs (always on leash) around Nederland, Sugarloaf, and surrounding areas of the Canyons. I’d be happy to go on leashed walks/hikes with your doggos! or if you have a yard, I’d be happy to watch your pup closely as we enjoy unleashed play time. I am accustomed to and prepared for mountain life and the variables it brings (wildlife, weather, fires, etc.).

“Our dog had a wonderful time at Aubrey’s house. He had lots of furry friends to play with, spent time exploring outside and received many cuddles and love.

About: My dog is my top priority, and yours will be too! I’m able to take your dog on hikes, runs, and have some fun time with my 2 year old husky/heeler mix. Lots of cuddles, exercise, and fun time, while ensuring proper dog to dog boundaries. I have experience caring for dogs from puppies to seniors.

About: I absolutely love dogs. All dogs, period. I have a deep understanding of each dog's unique needs, quirks, and preferences, and I make sure to give a tailored experience that goes beyond routine tasks. I strive to create a home away from home for your dogs and make sure they are comfortable as well as you. I currently work in the early afternoons with two days off during the week with full availability. I am an early bird and can be there for your dog as early as 6:30am until about 12:00pm. Safe Space: Designate a specific area or room for the pet, providing them with a sense of security. Exercise and Playtime: Engage in regular play sessions and take your pet for walks or provide a secure outdoor space for them to explore. Social Interaction: Spend quality time with your pet to prevent loneliness and anxiety. Provide toys and enrichment activities to keep them mentally stimulated. Emergency Plan: Be prepared for emergencies by having a first aid kit and knowing the location of the nearest veterinary clinic.
“My older dog Santo did well with Jacqueline's gentle care. She understood his limitations, especially regarding heat. He had plenty of toys, and was able to play with her well behaved dogs. Jacqueline runs a tight ship, which I appreciate.”
“Tegan was fantastic! She was able to accommodate our request at the last minute and took great care of our dog. She sent a few photos and updates that showed us how much fun Copper was having while we were gone. Would highly recommend!”
“Highly recommend Alex and Jeff. Responsive and on point with all communications. Great yard and set up. Felt really good about leaving our pup with them.”
“We are so lucky to have Sarah! I have the utmost trust in her care and can't give her a high enough recommendation. Great communicator, very experienced, and every interaction has been a positive one. It gives me such a peace of mind to know that my pet is in such great hands when I'm away. Without hesitation, Sarah is a star sitter!!”
“Our pup had a great weekend at Mitzi’s! She sent us photos throughout and gave us feedback on how he did when we picked him up. She has a huge fenced in yard and really cares about the dogs!”
“We had a great experience with Alex. He is very kind and is a dog lover. He was great with communication and drop off pickup and being flexible with our times. He let us enjoy our trip but sent a few messages and took amazing photos of our dog Chip. He was thoughtful and gave us some prints and a magnet of his photography of our cutie pup Chip. We will definitely be using Alex again. Thank you!”
“We weren’t able to book our normal sitter for our dog reactive pup and thought we’d have to miss a family trip until we met with Chris. Chris met with us and our pup a couple times very close to the date of the trip a to make sure our dog was comfortable in the new environment with new person. Once it seemed like he was, we talked through our dogs reactivity with Chris who was very attentive and understanding. He even went out of his way to let his neighbor (who has a dog) know he’d have a reactive pup there which was very thoughtful. During the trip, Chris gave us great updates and we felt good knowing he was in good hands. If we need a sitter again for any period of time, Chris will definitely be top of mind. Thanks Chris!”
About: My family has owned all kinds of animals throughout my life. We’ve had geckos, dogs, cats, fish, and more. My exposure to this wide array of animals makes me the perfect pet sitter for whatever your family needs. I am comfortable with overnight stays, feeding, bathing, drop in visits, and more. Anything your pet needs, I’m happy to provide! I am currently a student at CU Boulder missing my puppies back at home more than anything. I have a pretty light class schedule this semester and would love nothing more than to spend my extra time with your animals! I am located walking distance from Chautauqua park and go there almost daily. I’d love the company of your pups and have sooo much love waiting for them. I have a fenced side yard and love walking distance from many walking trails. If your pets were staying with me, I’d take them on walks daily and be home with them majority of the day to let them out when needed. I also have a large car, so vehicle transportation to/from your home is available. If staying at a clients home, I would make time for whatever is necessary for your pet. I am flexible to your needs and highly adaptable to what works best for you and your pets!
