“We were visiting from Texas and looking for a sitter for our dog, Leia, for 3-4 dags. Barbara was so sweet to Leia. Leia was very excited to see Barbara everytime she went there. Barbara took care of another dog also during that time and Leia loved playing in the yard with the other dog. Barbara also kept me posted about Leia the entire time. I would be very comfortable leaving Leia with Barbara when we come back to Bailey again.”
“Jenn had the perfect set up for our older dog. She made sure she had all the details to care for him, and even had a box of toys when we arrived! She had excellent communication and sent pictures throughout the stay. Jenn is calm and kind and was exactly the person Rocco needed when we were traveling”
“Kristin was great with communication and easy to schedule drop off and pick up. They have a perfect fenced yard for the dogs to romp around. Timber had fun being a part of their family while we were away and exhausted when we got home.”
“Always a comfort, no worries when our girl is staying with Amy. Amy's photo check ins are great. Love the pictures and reports. It nice that Rosa has Piper, a fur friend when visiting.”
“Our sweet pup loves to play at Danielle's house! He has a great time while we are also away, like summer camp for dogs! We are so glad and happy to have found Danielle!”
“Missy and Evan were great! We really appreciated the flexibility with drop off/pick up times and the daily updates. Our guy loved his time and came back healthy and happy!”
“Bella had a great time at Jen’s! Jen did a great job w daily updates and pics. It was so nice to not have to worry about Bella while we were gone knowing she was well taken care of. I also really appreciated Jen’s flexibility with scheduling bc of a last minute flight change.”
“My wife and I went overseas for our honeymoon, and we were so happy to have found Nicole and Craig!! Our dog is a bit of a diva, and can't stand other dogs or traditional boarding facilities. She almost seemed sad when we brought her home. Nicole and Craig were very responsive and attentive to our pup. We will 100% be booking with them again in the future”
“Brenda was an amazing dog sitter and I would recommend her to everyone reading this review. She was very responsive, provided photos/updates, and cared after our dog as well as anyone could. She will definitely be our go-to!”
“Mitzi and Klifton were so wonderful caring for our dog for an extended stay. She was welcomed into the pack and she can’t wait to return. She came home happy and calm and she clearly had a great time. The daily pictures and updates were so nice! Thank you!”
“Allie and Jason were great. They took amazing care of our pup Lady, sending so many pictures and making her feel right at home. Lady hardly wanted to leave when we picked her up!”
“Chelcee and Alexander took great care of our dog. They were very responsive when we sent them messages. We will definitely use them again to board our dog.”
About: I’ve taken care of large/,medium & small dogs since I was 20. Neighbors, friends and family relied on me to groom, walk, feed & bath their pets, and I can do it for you. As I’m retired with plenty of time to care for your dog, and take it on walks, if you choose.. I do have a cat so your pet needs to be cat-friendly. I’m available for boarding/drop-off after 2 p.m., on weekdays & weekends, unless other arrangements made in advance. I am retired, and have plenty of time to care for your pet(s). I have a fenced yard, a large, covered, enclosed deck for lounging in open-air, 2 friendly small dogs, and a cat. Also live in fairly large house with my grandson who is 4 yrs. old (must get along w/child, small dogs & cat).. I can walk your dog if arrangements made in advance (for additional fee.) I crate my dogs at night, and prefer you provide a crate for your dog(s), as well.
“Red was great. She was open to accommodating Camilo for a week at her house. Camilo loved the space to run and to play with her dogs. She sent videos of Milo playing. I’m sure he had a really good time, and I was at peace leaving him with her.”
“Emily is by far one of the best Dog Sitters! We used her for the first time this weekend and she was very responsive, kept us updated with videos and pics. Our Dog had a great time and we will definitely be using Emily’s Services again!”
“This was our dog’s first time staying with Melinda and we will definitely be booking with her in the future. She was easy to communicate with, sent picture updates, and our dog was happy and well-cared for.”
“Cara is a LIFESAVER! My boys are in their teens and haven’t boarded with a stranger in years, but my sitter had to call out last minute. Her reviews, experience, and just who she is as a person put me completely at ease. She sent photos and regular updates and my boys had a blast. Could not recommend her more and I’ll absolutely keep her in mind for future trips.”

About: PLEASE READ ENTIRE PROFILE BEOFRE BOOKING I have 3 dogs, all of whom have obedience training. They can be a little much at first (training is always a work in progress) but love people and other dogs. I volunteered as a trainer for a service dog training program, and have cared for animals since I was a child. I also work with horses, so I am very comfortable working with any and all animals. We frequent the dog park, enjoy hiking, and are more than happy to bring your pup with us if you're comfortable! I crate trained all of my dogs, so I am easily able to crate your dog if needed. I am very flexible and committed to providing your pup with care that you are comfortable and happy with. I am a bar manager and go to work at 9 AM at the earliest. I can be home anywhere from 4 to 10 PM, but my boyfriend gets home at 6 PM so your pup will get plenty of snuggles in the morning and the evening. I typically have Sundays and Mondays off. I have a large, entirely fenced-in yard so your pup will have plenty of space to run and play. The entrance to the yard is a large staircase with no backs on the steps. If your pup is insecure on stairs, there is a side entrance to my yard that they can use. My three dogs are energetic, friendly, and love making new friends. It's important to me to bond with each of the dogs in my care so they know that they are safe and cared for. As a note, the dogs who tend to do the best in my care are socially confident, playful pups who like to explore.
“Ashley was incredibly attentive and sweet to our kittens! We last minute needed to book through Rover and we are so glad we found her, highly recommend her to be trusted with your family and house!”
“Chey was amazing from the start. She was quickly responsive to all my messages and questions. The meet & greet went well and Sunshine liked her from the very start! The photos she sent while we were gone calmed our nerves about using Rover for the first time. Thanks, Chey!”
“Emily was so great! Was consistent and came around the same time everyday for drop in visits and always sent pics and a nice report card of my kitty! She did a meet and greet before I left for the week which I really appreciated. I’m very protective and particular with my cat and have never had a stranger watch her before, but Emily did a great job (even though my cat was a brat to her the whole time - sorry Emily!) I will definitely book Emily again if I need a pet sitter in the future! Highly recommend - she is very professional and caring!!”
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. I've had so many dear fur babies; dogs, cats, horses, goats, and chickens. I will care for your pet like family. I am currently working only two mornings a week, so I have plenty of time to care for and love your pet. I'm a home body and would enjoy the companionship of your pet. I have a cozy environment where they become part of my home. I have a fenced in back yard where they can enjoy nature while being safe.
“I give Lori my highest possible recommendation as a pet sitter. She is incredibly attentive and genuinely cares for the animals under her watch as if they were her own. While we were away, she provided us with regular photo updates, which gave us immense peace of mind and allowed us to see our pets were not just safe, but truly happy and content. Her obvious passion for animals and her professional reliability make her the first person I will call for any future pet sitting needs!”
About: My husband and I have been dog lovers and caretakers for over 20 years. We have three beautiful, very spoiled Huskies that love other dogs as playmates and cuddle buddies at night. We also have 3 girls that adore dogs as well and like to argue over how often we take the pups for walks or hikes. ;) We don't like to keep dogs in kennels or crates and prefer them to just hang out with us all day long but have both if that is your preference or your dogs comfort zone. I work from home, so I am home 24/7, the rest of the household is home every night for lots of family time. I always want to find a place for my dogs when we have to leave them, that they are treated like part of the family. We can provide the same for you as well as peace of mind that your dogs are always treated like family! I am Working from home 24/7. Always available for updates or pictures. So feel free to text or call as much as you need! We just want both you and your pups to feel at home. Typically we prefer to allow dogs to hang out in the house but we have a dog door out to the porch where my dogs like to lounge all day. We also have a large dog run, with a second dog door out to it, so that they can come and go as they please throughout the day. If you or your dog prefer crates, we have both a large and a small crate that can assist with puppy care and crate training at night. **Please note: Fees listed do not include daily walks, for daily walks in addition to doggy day care and boarding, additional charges may apply unless discussed otherwise.
About: I was born and raised in Conifer and have been house/pet sitting for the last 16 years. I've always enjoyed assisting folks in my community to create an experience where they can unwind and enjoy their trip while away from home knowing their animals are taken care of. I've "sitted" for dogs, cats, and many more. I work from home and run my own business in the tech field. Before this, I worked remote and house sat regularly over the last decade while in a sales career working remote as well. I always try to take the extra step to make your pet's feel companionship while you're away from home. I grew up with Rottweilers, Great Pyrenees and German Shepherds and always played toss and took 'em for walks. I've managed a 9 state territory in sales, own and maintain my own home, volunteered as a firefighter, and now run my own business, so I'm no stranger to responsibility.
About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, birds, etc. all my life! Growing up we fostered puppies and kittens from Inter Mountain Humane Society. We always had two pups of our own and now as an adult I have a border collie and lab! I am home full time! Our lab stays home with me and our border collie goes to work with my husband! I love to hike, cuddle on the couch, going outside! We allow our dogs on furniture so when you’re pups are here they are welcome as well. We’ll treat them just like our own! :)
About: I have been working with dogs for 6 years. I worked at Camp Bow Wow and Canine Fitness and Fun Center. I am currently being trained to become a certified dog trainer, but that does not limit my knowledge on basic dog training techniques. My passion for dogs, and animals in general, have been with me since I was a child, and it is only growing with time. I would be more than willing to walk your dog's to a specific location that you prefer, and if not, I will discover a route for us both and maybe switch it up every now and then to keep them alert and on the go. If you, the owner, need your dog's to be walked longer for energy decrease, I can take them for a run to get them leveled. I am currently working part time in evergreen, so I have plenty of spare time to watch/play with your pups! Weekends are always open for me, and Monday's are good days for me to do check ins for pups. My home overlooks Baileys mountains, and across from my home is a river and a hiking trail for off leash walking. It's a perfect little spot to hang out and swim.
“Danielle was an absolutely fantastic sitter for our cats while we were away! She made sure to give all the details of how they were doing and sent lots of great pics. She was also easy to communicate with and answered any questions right away. We will be using Danielle as our go-to sitter in the future! Highly recommend!”
“Casey’s calm presence was exactly what our two special needs cats needed during our recent week out of state, as they both tend to get stressed/anxious when we’re gone. We’d recently moved to Brook Forest and didn’t have internet yet to set up our pet cams 24/7, and normally I’d be worrying constantly, but I felt totally confident with Casey checking in on them and didn’t worry at all! He was very chill about their special needs, and our blind cat with more severe mobility issues who’s extra wary of strangers started coming out of hiding within just a couple visits. Both cats were happy and relaxed when we got home. We’ll definitely call on Casey again!”
“Madison did a great job caring for our shy little cat, SheShe. She is often timid with people, but Madison was kind and gentle with her, and even managed to coax her out for some petting. I highly recommend choosing Madison to care for your pets, she’s so kind and she loves cats (and dogs!). Will definitely use her again for pet visits.”
“We can't say enough good things about Elizabeth! She took such wonderful care of our senior dog who is blind and insulin dependent for being diabetic...she even gave him his insulin shots twice a day. Right from the start our Jakey could sense that she was a dog lover...his tail was wagging nonstop. We knew then that Elizabeth was the right choice. We honestly couldn't have asked for a more caring and dependable sitter!:)”
“I can always count on Erin whether it's for my dogs walks or watching my cat while out of town. They all love her, she very professional and personable! I will continue using Erin when needed! ”
About: I am a musician that has lived in Denver for seven years and has since moved out to my cabin in Conifer. Dogs have always been part of my life and my family. When I was growing up, I noticed how hard it was on my parents to put our dogs into a kennel when we went on vacation. As our dogs got older it was nearly impossible to find someone to look after our beloved pets. As a pet sitter, I get to provide that care that we lacked when I was a kid. My goal is to treat every pet like my own and keep everyone--pets and owners--comfortable during the stay. I've spent years working with dogs on a farm, in a few doggy day care centers and most recently working with a top rated dog care company here in Denver. During this time, I enjoyed the company of many different types of dogs: outgoing, shy, cuddle machines, playful, big and small. Don't you love how all dogs have their own personalities? I would love to meet you and your furry family members--and have the privilege of taking care of them. My promise to you is that I will take care of them like they're part of my family. I do have a full time job, but that doesn't stop me from making sure your pooches get a full day of activities in. Mornings usually consist of walks and/or exercise with the evenings being reserved for inside play and cuddle time, as my dog Kenobi can attest to. On my days off, we usually go on adventures to the dog park or make pup cup runs (with your permission). I live on 1.5 acres of national forest land with a creek that runs through the middle of it and have an amazing, trained cattle dog mix named Kenobi that loves to play with other dogs.

“Couldn’t ask for a better sitter for our wild and crazy German Shepherd. He is spoiled with love and care all day and comes home happy and worn out. Love the daily text updates and photos too! We would definitely recommend Kim to be your doggy daycare!!”
“Lukas and Copper fell in love with Jenn as soon as we arrived! They were quite comfortable staying when I left them for the day. When we picked them up they were relaxed and not trying to leave right away!! Fantastic meet and greet.”
About: I have 1 dog of my own and have grown up with animals (dogs, cows, goats, rabbits, chickens, pigs, cats) my entire life! I love all animals. My first job was working at a pet resort when I was 16. I worked there all throughout high school and when I came home for summers in college! I would love to open my own doggie daycare/boarding facility someday 😎 #RoverSideHustle I work from home and have flexible hours. Some days I have no meetings and can be anywhere at any time (even on short notice!!) if I’m not out of town. I use Rover often myself and will treat your home and animals with the same care I treat my own and would want from someone else!
About: I am an animal lover that works from home, so I will always be around. I'm just looking to help you care for your pets while you are away. No complicated stuff or pricey add-ons here! About me - my husband and I have owned two beautiful Vizslas over the last 17 years and recently lost our 2nd one. I love animals, have plenty of experience caring for high energy and senior dogs (we cared for our dogs with arthritis, Cushing's Disease, muscle atrophy). I love walking, hiking and spending time with animals. I have a large 1 acre property and spacious home. No other pets, just me and my husband. I am perfectly happy caring for one pet at a time if you prefer your pet to be the only pet with me. I have also cared for friends' pets for a long time as well but am adding my services here to the Rover community. Thank you! I work from home full time, so I have a lot of flexibility. I am able to take breaks often during the day for potty breaks and walks. I am home almost everyday, but I do go out on weekends for a few hours at a time. I can bring your pet along on hikes and picnics if your pet is able to join. I prefer pets that can be left at home for at least 3-4 hours at a time and unattended. If not, we can discuss. Crates may be needed if they are unable to roam around the house alone. I have a large property, but it is unfenced, it is far from the road and our area is very very quiet, almost zero cars. I can keep your pet on a leash for potty breaks if they are prone to running away. My house is spacious and has two floors with just the two of us and no other pets. The stairs and floors are covered in non-slip rugs for pets. There is a baby gate to keep your pet away from stairs if needed. There are extra rugs for the floors if needed (our senior dogs used to slip a lot). I also have a large deck that is fully enclosed - no exit route. Since I am home almost all the time, I can take your pet for a walk and let them keep me company at home on the couch too! I can also come over your home and care for your pet there as needed (depends on length of stay requested).
“Taylor was AMAZING! She provided great care for my pup, and sent lots of pictures & updates. My dog had the best time playing with Taylor’s dogs! I highly recommend Taylor for daycare ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: At the heart of my business is a simple philosophy: your dog isn’t just a pet on a schedule; they are family. While many sitters offer a standard walk around the block, I focus on creating a comforting, structured "home away from home" experience that respects your dog's unique personality and rhythm. Here is what truly sets my care apart: Specialized Senior Care: I have a deep softness for our older companions. I am highly experienced in managing gentle mobility assistance, strict medication schedules, and recognizing the subtle signs of discomfort or anxiety in senior dogs. I ensure their days are peaceful, safe, and filled with quiet comfort. Puppy Training Support: Raising a puppy takes a village. I don't just watch your pup; I help reinforce your ongoing training. From consistency with housebreaking and crate routines to practicing loose-leash walking and basic commands, I ensure your puppy’s development stays right on track. A Cozy, Low-Stress Environment: Whether they need high-energy mental stimulation or just a warm lap to lean against while you're away, my goal is to maintain the exact level of comfort and security they feel when they are with you. When your dog is with me, they aren’t just being watched-they are truly cared for, understood, and loved. My open and entirely flexible schedule allows me to prioritize your dog’s specific routine, whether they require precise midday medication, extra puppy potty breaks, or last-minute care when your plans suddenly change. Whether your dog is staying at my mountain retreat or I am visiting them in your home, my care is entirely centered on love, wellness, and specialized attention. I treat every pet like family, ensuring their physical, mental, and emotional needs are fully met through a luxurious, high-standard routine. Here is exactly how I care for your pet: Positive Reinforcement Training: I believe in building confidence through kindness. Throughout the day-whether we are practicing leash manners or rewarding good choices-I use positive reinforcement to keep your dog engaged, happy, and learning. Outdoor Adventures (Walks, Hikes & Lake Swims): Taking full advantage of our beautiful surroundings, I tailor outdoor time to your dog's energy level. This includes brisk neighborhood walks, scenic mountain hikes, and even refreshing lake swims for the water lovers. Home-Cooked Nutrition: Proper nutrition is vital. If your dog eats a specialized diet, I am happy to cool and prep their custom, home-cooked meals precisely to your instructions so their digestion stays perfect. Weekly Grooming & Pampering: A clean pup is a happy pup. I incorporate a weekly groomer routine to keep your dog brushed, fresh, and feeling their absolute best during extended stays. Dedicated Snuggle Time: Emotional comfort is just as important as physical exercise. I always make plenty of time for quiet, cozy one-on-one snuggles so your dog feels safe, loved, and completely at home.
About: ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS FOR 2025 SUMMER ADVENTURES - PARK HANGS, LAKE SWIMS, AND MORE ☀️ I’ve spent my entire life around dogs. Growing up, I quickly became one of the primary caregivers for my own pups and was known as the resident dog-sitter around the neighborhood. I was the first person called when a neighbor needed someone to watch their dog. I care deeply for animals and have taken the time to research and understand basic dog behavior and communication. Being around animals makes me genuinely so happy and excited. I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages, including puppies and elderly dogs. *I have a 6 month old Bernese Mountain/Golden Retriever mix. He LOVES other dogs. He will be present at bookings unless otherwise stated, so you can rest assured you will come home to a happy pup that has been able to play all week long! I’m currently in between jobs due to an unexpected lay-off, so your pup will receive 100% of my attention during the week! I love having more time to be able to dedicate to your pet and making sure they have the best time ever with me. I will always prioritize safety and ensuring your pup feels respected, safe, and well-cared for. I believe in positive reinforcement to create healthy, mutually respectful relationships between humans and dogs. I will always respect your training methods to the best of my ability.
About: I have raised both of my families dogs since they were puppies, and have cared for my relatives elderly pets. We have a very large fenced yard, have neighborhood access to a local trail system, and are 5-10 minutes from Evergreens lakes and parks for all exercise needs! I only board one dog at a time in order to give them my undivided attention. I love housing puppies, my 7 month old Samoyed would love to play with them ! I am available throughout the week and during weekends. My daily hours can vary, but most are spent at home, meaning I am able to provide for whatever needs your pet may have. I have an extremely large fenced yard around our 6000 sqft house, multiple outdoor walking options including: Evergreen Lake, Elk Meadow Park, Flying J Ranch, and Three Sisters Trail, all within 10 minutes. There is also plenty of indoor space for your pet to roam, explore, and make themselves at home in. I house 2 of my own dogs that will be happy to keep your pet company!
“Lottie had so much fun with Danielle! She went to day care for the first time, three days in a row and was so excited when she recognized where she was on day 2 and 3. She’s been exhausted each day and I feel so much better about her not having to be crated all day!”
“Thank you to Jennifer for taking such good care of our brand new puppy whilst we were at Red Rocks!!! You guys were so flexible with the timing of drop off and pick up, you sent pictures to ease a mom’s worried mind. It was a fantastic experience all around.”
“Definitely recommend and will use Brandi again to look after my dogs. I was able to go to work with a great sense of peace of mind knowing my fur baby was in exceptional hands. 6 stars if I could!”
About: Many years of house and pet sitting in a variety of locations and with multiple animals. I value giving care with love and knowing my clients can feel safe and comfortable leaving their pets with me! I currently do not have pets so this will help to fill the void in my heart until the day I can have one of my own. Thank you in advance!! Brings joy to my day! I am devoted to creating the time to care for your pets. My schedule is very flexible and I can accommodate you and your pets needs. I am attentive and caring in nature, I will make sure whatever needs of each individual pet are, they are met. I am fun, adventurous and respectful to not only what the pet needs but how the client wants the pet to be taken care of.

“We have only booked twice so far, but we trust Chey (and we have already rebooked with her). She managed to get our dog to walk over a mile (maybe treat-induced); he'll only do that on hikes with us! Also, she is respectful of our home while we're away. Five stars.”

About: I grew up taking care of dogs and absolutely love them. Our pets are a part of our family. I think they should be loved and cared for while their owners are away and not put into a cage for the weekend. This causes stress and anxiety! Why should we be having all of the fun our pets deserve a normal weekend while we are away! I enjoy being outside and taking our dogs for walks and playing fetch! I also enjoy just snuggling up with our pup and watching a movie! I will take care of your dog like it is my own so you can have fun and not worry while you're on vacation! I am dependable and honest. Call me for your next vacation!

“We have booked Emily twice now. Once to house sit our dog for a weekend trip and the second time we needed her to come walk our dog during lunch for a week while my husband was away for work. She even did a little meet and greet with us before our weekend trip to get to know our dog and how to get into our apartment. She does an amazing job! She’s taken Cali on runs with her, always sends pictures and shows up on time. We definitely trust her taking care of our pup and would recommend her to watch your dog!”
“Amber has done a great job with our pups so far! They both seem very happy when we get home, we look forward to growing our relationship with her and her family. Thank you Amber!”
“Kristen responded fast on a same day request and was so sweet and communicative. She made my nervous 9-year-old pup feel safe before they left for their walk and she even refilled water while we were at work. Will try to find time to book again!”
“Libby was so great with our 3 year old dog. Super communicative and submitted so many great photos and report cards. She was also flexible and helped with a last minute schedule change! Will defs be a repeat customer!”
About: Reliable Dog Walker Hi! My name is Katie, and I offer reliable dog walking services in the area. I love dogs of all sizes and breeds and enjoy helping keep pups active, happy, and well cared for while their owners are busy. I take the time to get to know each pet’s unique personality and make sure they feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, or following a specific care routine, I always make sure pets feel loved, relaxed, and stress-free.
“Danielle has been our best care taker yet! She pays special attention to instructions and always provides detailed updates. We really enjoyed having her look after our animals and providing such a high level of care and attention!”

When your dog is with me, they aren’t just being watched-they are truly cared for, understood, and loved. My open and entirely flexible schedule allows me to prioritize your dog’s specific routine, whether they require precise midday medication, extra puppy potty breaks, or last-minute care when your plans suddenly change. Whether your dog is staying at my mountain retreat or I am visiting them in your home, my care is entirely centered on love, wellness, and specialized attention. I treat every pet like family, ensuring their physical, mental, and emotional needs are fully met through a luxurious, high-standard routine. Here is exactly how I care for your pet: Positive Reinforcement Training: I believe in building confidence through kindness. Throughout the day-whether we are practicing leash manners or rewarding good choices-I use positive reinforcement to keep your dog engaged, happy, and learning. Outdoor Adventures (Walks, Hikes & Lake Swims): Taking full advantage of our beautiful surroundings, I tailor outdoor time to your dog's energy level. This includes brisk neighborhood walks, scenic mountain hikes, and even refreshing lake swims for the water lovers. Home-Cooked Nutrition: Proper nutrition is vital. If your dog eats a specialized diet, I am happy to cool and prep their custom, home-cooked meals precisely to your instructions so their digestion stays perfect. Weekly Grooming & Pampering: A clean pup is a happy pup. I incorporate a weekly groomer routine to keep your dog brushed, fresh, and feeling their absolute best during extended stays. Dedicated Snuggle Time: Emotional comfort is just as important as physical exercise. I always make plenty of time for quiet, cozy one-on-one snuggles so your dog feels safe, loved, and completely at home.
“Aaron is an amazing pet sitter. She is very thorough with letting you know what is happening with your animal and when she comes and goes. She takes a lot of photographs and it's nice to see my dog Lucy in the middle of the day.”
About: I love all animals espicially dogs. Growing up we always had a dog, and as an adult, I have had my own dog. It's not a chore for me to give love and attention to an animal, it truly makes me happy. I know how important it is for an animal to get enough attention, get the right care, and have positive interactions with people and pets. I worked at the Humane Society for years and currently work remotely with a somewhat flexible schedule. I'm responsible and would make sure your beloved pet gets the best care by taking them on walks, playing at the park, or just checking in on them in your home. I would the chance to love and meet you and your dog!

“Ashley is the absolute best! She is very flexible with scheduling and responds quickly. My dogs love her and look forward to their walks together. She always asks about my preferences and sends the cutest picture updates. Her patience with my non-leash trainer dogs is amazing. We will continue to use her for as long as she will take us as clients!”

“We were visiting from Texas and looking for a sitter for our dog, Leia, for 3-4 dags. Barbara was so sweet to Leia. Leia was very excited to see Barbara everytime she went there. Barbara took care of another dog also during that time and Leia loved playing in the yard with the other dog. Barbara also kept me posted about Leia the entire time. I would be very comfortable leaving Leia with Barbara when we come back to Bailey again.”
“Jenn had the perfect set up for our older dog. She made sure she had all the details to care for him, and even had a box of toys when we arrived! She had excellent communication and sent pictures throughout the stay. Jenn is calm and kind and was exactly the person Rocco needed when we were traveling”
“Kristin was great with communication and easy to schedule drop off and pick up. They have a perfect fenced yard for the dogs to romp around. Timber had fun being a part of their family while we were away and exhausted when we got home.”
“Always a comfort, no worries when our girl is staying with Amy. Amy's photo check ins are great. Love the pictures and reports. It nice that Rosa has Piper, a fur friend when visiting.”
“Our sweet pup loves to play at Danielle's house! He has a great time while we are also away, like summer camp for dogs! We are so glad and happy to have found Danielle!”
“Missy and Evan were great! We really appreciated the flexibility with drop off/pick up times and the daily updates. Our guy loved his time and came back healthy and happy!”
“Brenda was an amazing dog sitter and I would recommend her to everyone reading this review. She was very responsive, provided photos/updates, and cared after our dog as well as anyone could. She will definitely be our go-to!”
“Mitzi and Klifton were so wonderful caring for our dog for an extended stay. She was welcomed into the pack and she can’t wait to return. She came home happy and calm and she clearly had a great time. The daily pictures and updates were so nice! Thank you!”
“Allie and Jason were great. They took amazing care of our pup Lady, sending so many pictures and making her feel right at home. Lady hardly wanted to leave when we picked her up!”
“Chelcee and Alexander took great care of our dog. They were very responsive when we sent them messages. We will definitely use them again to board our dog.”
“Red was great. She was open to accommodating Camilo for a week at her house. Camilo loved the space to run and to play with her dogs. She sent videos of Milo playing. I’m sure he had a really good time, and I was at peace leaving him with her.”
“Emily is by far one of the best Dog Sitters! We used her for the first time this weekend and she was very responsive, kept us updated with videos and pics. Our Dog had a great time and we will definitely be using Emily’s Services again!”
“This was our dog’s first time staying with Melinda and we will definitely be booking with her in the future. She was easy to communicate with, sent picture updates, and our dog was happy and well-cared for.”
“Cara is a LIFESAVER! My boys are in their teens and haven’t boarded with a stranger in years, but my sitter had to call out last minute. Her reviews, experience, and just who she is as a person put me completely at ease. She sent photos and regular updates and my boys had a blast. Could not recommend her more and I’ll absolutely keep her in mind for future trips.”
About: I am an animal lover that works from home, so I will always be around. I'm just looking to help you care for your pets while you are away. No complicated stuff or pricey add-ons here! About me - my husband and I have owned two beautiful Vizslas over the last 17 years and recently lost our 2nd one. I love animals, have plenty of experience caring for high energy and senior dogs (we cared for our dogs with arthritis, Cushing's Disease, muscle atrophy). I love walking, hiking and spending time with animals. I have a large 1 acre property and spacious home. No other pets, just me and my husband. I am perfectly happy caring for one pet at a time if you prefer your pet to be the only pet with me. I have also cared for friends' pets for a long time as well but am adding my services here to the Rover community. Thank you! I work from home full time, so I have a lot of flexibility. I am able to take breaks often during the day for potty breaks and walks. I am home almost everyday, but I do go out on weekends for a few hours at a time. I can bring your pet along on hikes and picnics if your pet is able to join. I prefer pets that can be left at home for at least 3-4 hours at a time and unattended. If not, we can discuss. Crates may be needed if they are unable to roam around the house alone. I have a large property, but it is unfenced, it is far from the road and our area is very very quiet, almost zero cars. I can keep your pet on a leash for potty breaks if they are prone to running away. My house is spacious and has two floors with just the two of us and no other pets. The stairs and floors are covered in non-slip rugs for pets. There is a baby gate to keep your pet away from stairs if needed. There are extra rugs for the floors if needed (our senior dogs used to slip a lot). I also have a large deck that is fully enclosed - no exit route. Since I am home almost all the time, I can take your pet for a walk and let them keep me company at home on the couch too! I can also come over your home and care for your pet there as needed (depends on length of stay requested).
“This is our second time using Paul to watch our babies, and it was the same as last time. Wonderful! The dogs did great, and we go daily updates. We will definitely be using him the next time we leave town!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Kendra! She took incredible care of my two boys for an entire week and made the whole experience completely stress-free. She sent frequent updates and tons of adorable pictures! She has a nice backyard that the boys loved to run around and play in. She sent videos of their zoomies! I will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“My pup came home from Jenna and her family’s house happy and tired after playing with her pups and hanging with her family — and so did we after enjoying a weekend of shows at Red Rocks Amphitheater! Exceptional communication, smooth drop-off and pick-up and lots of pics! I felt like I was dropping my pup off at my sister’s house — and my pup seemed to think she was happily at her new house. Highly recommend!”
“William & Daniela took great care of Riley on a short notice, and provided daily updates with photos! Riley felt right at home with them + their dog :) definitely recommend for in-house sitting!!”
