“Tasha was a wonderful sitter! She took care of Ellie for 6 days and sent us pictures and updates everyday. We were comfortable leaving her and felt she was well taken care of. We will definitely book with Tasha if we need a sitter again!”
“My dog stayed with Sue-Ling, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She took such wonderful care of my dog. Kind, patient, and really attentive to her needs. It was clear from the start that Sue-Ling truly loves animals and treats them like her own. There was a small health issue while I was away, but Sue-Ling handled everything calmly and responsibly. She kept me updated right away and made sure my dog was comfortable and safe. I felt completely reassured knowing she was in such good hands. I’m really grateful for the care and attention Sue-Ling gave to my dog, and I would absolutely trust her to look after her again anytime. She’s amazing!”
“This was our second stay with Jordan, and I realized I never left a review after the first one. However, I definitely should have! As a first time Rover user, in fact the first time ever leaving my 9-year old pup with a stranger, I was incredibly nervous about leaving my dog with someone new. Jordan completely exceeded my expectations. He sent thoughtful updates throughout the stay with a plethora of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was obvious that my dog was being loved and well cared for. Not only is Jordan amazing, but his family is so kind and welcoming. You can truly tell they care about the dogs they watch and treat them like part of the family. Knowing my pup was safe, happy, and surrounded by so much love made all the difference. I can't thank Jordan enough for taking such great care of my dog, Lily. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and communicative, I highly recommend booking with him. We'll definitely be back!”
“Haley is so wonderful and took great care of Charlie! Appreciate her flexibility with logistics and the sweet updates she sent of Charlie loving life with her new little friend 💛”
“Donna and Calvin were fantastic hosts! I knew my older Pomeranian was in great hands and I didn’t have to worry about him while I was away. Donna sent regular pictures and updates. He went on daily walks, and was given special attention with food because he doesn’t eat right away like other dogs. I highly recommend Donna and Calvin!”
“Gabrielle and Family were awesome with our dogs. She reached out with questions, frequently sent pictures and we could tell they were very well cared for and loved. They looked very happy in all the pictures she sent. We will definitely use her next time we go out of town.”
“Andrew and Erin, I’ve been the best pet sitters we could ask for! Our little multi-Pooh, Chloe, absolutely loves them, and has a great time with them! They are very communicative, kind and send lots of pictures and updates. It makes leaving her so much easier knowing that she’s having a great time while I’m gone.”
“Polly is a repeat visitor with Steven and his family. She loves her time with this amazing family. They definitely keep her busy and she loves all the playtime and snuggles. Thanks again for taking such great care of my girl!”
“Carey was an amazing sitter! She was responsive, open, and very attentive to my “Velcro-dog” that requires attention all the time. She updated me with pictures during my time away, and her whole family was very kind and loving to him. I absolutely will be booking with her in the future!”
“Kelly was a great sitter! This was the first time we boarded our dog with her and she kept us updated everyday and sent the cutest pictures! It seemed like her whole family really enjoyed Dune’s company. She was very responsive and always answered right away. I really felt like our dog was in great hands! Would highly recommend Kelly for boarding!”
“Taylor and family did a fine job of taking care of our dog, Billy. He was happy and healthy when we picked him up, and he sent us videos of him playing and enjoying himself in their home. I highly recommend Taylor.”
“Ashley and Jon did a wonderful job watching our senior dog while we were out of town. They definitely made him feel part of the family and put our minds at ease. We can't wait to use them again.”
“Jerry was amazing and took excellent care of Raya. He even celebrated her first birthday with a pup cup and doggy cookies! I very much appreciated the updates and pictures of how she was doing. Highly recommend Jerry!”
“Olivia was very attentive to our needs for Leila. She shared some great videos with us which made us feel relaxed & happy that our girl was well taken care of.”
“Savannah was incredibly kind and welcoming. She took wonderful care of Diva. It was very easy coordinate schedule wit her, and everything went smoothly. I will definitely reach out to her again. Highly recommend!”
“Amy was great with communication and sending pics! It was very clear the dogs were well cared for. I appreciated her flexibility in terms of timing. (As we were road tripping with young children it was hard to guess exact drop off and pick up times.) If we are in the area again we will definitely book with Amy again! Thank you!”
“Angela took such great care of our littles while we were out of town. She gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in the best of hands sending so many pictures and updates throughout their stay with her & her family! Highly recommend.”

“Lauren was AMAZING with Kiwi while I was on vacation. She was extremely patient and calm which helped a lot. Kiwi turned out to be very shy and hid under the couch for a few days. Lauren was patient with her and made her feel comfortable to come out and play. I 100% recommend Lauren to take care of your pet while you’re away. She shows great care and puts your mind at ease! Also, expect the cutest photos of your pet everyday”

“Kimberly is an excellent pet sitter. She went above and beyond our expectations. When we came home, we could see that not only were our cat Quincy's physical needs met, but he had received plenty of play time and attention while we were gone. Also, the pet area was clean and tidy. She even watered our plants and took in the mail while we were gone. We received adorable pictures daily, and Kimberly even took Quincy out for a walk in his harness and lead! I will certainly use her again.”

About: We have been taking care of dogs since 2018! We are so enjoying it!! Hubby walks the dogs and I cuddle and play! It's a win win for your fur baby! For doggie day care we are available between 8 am and 6pm Monday through Friday. Would love long term . We do have one small dog. For boarding we are available both weekdays and weekends. We have a nice fenced-in backyard and my husband takes the dogs out for walks when possible! When that option isn't available,they have dedicated playtime in the yard.We have one dog that is not initially playful but takes a while to warm up but he does typically! I do require a meet and greet before committing and for pets to show proof of rabies shots,heartworm and flea and tic treatments. I work part time outside the home but my hubby works part time in the home so rarely are we both gone at the same time. I have a fenced in yard and my husband tries to walk our dog daily.Typically will hit the area walking trails. If necessary, he is willing to walk animals separately(older dog who can not walk as long or dogs who have health challenges)Our dog is aloof and takes a bit of time to adjust but usually does. We are attentive to this and supervise very closely until we see how things are going to be. We own both a large and small dog crate and can separate them if needed
“Savannah is great! She went above and beyond to accommodate my fluctuating schedule while I was in town for family events. She was extremely kind and sensitive to Sunny's needs.

I will absolutely use her again!”

“Jerry was absolutely amazing! My booking was pretty last minute because I was so scrambled that weekend, but Jerry was able to pull through and helped me so much! Bud looked like he had an absolute blast with Jerry and Bud got taken on so many new adventures which he looked like he absolutely loved. Jerry was even able to pick up Bud for me which saved me so much time that morning and gave him a bath for me before I went to go pick up Bud later that day!

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since I was young. I started caring for dogs and cats were neighbors, friends, and family around age 10, and have also gained around three years of professional experience working in dog boarding facilities. Through my experience, I have cared for puppies, senior pets, dogs of all sizes and personalities, cats, and multi pet households. I am comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, crate routines, senior care, and routine medication administration. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I take the time to make sure each one feels safe, comfortable, and loved. My background as a birth Doula has strengthened my patience, compassion, organization, and ability to stay calm under pressure. I bring those same qualities into pet care by providing dependable communication, attention to detail, and a calm presence for your pets while you’re away. I’m also a proud dog mom, and I know firsthand that pets are family. My goal is to treat every pet like my own while giving you peace of mind through reliable care, updates, and lots of love. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and is something I truly enjoy being a part of my life. Because I work as a birth doula with a mix of scheduled and on-call availability, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention, walks, drop in visits, and companionship for your pets throughout the day or night. I am open about my availability and will always communicate my on-call dates with pet parents ahead of time. When I am available, I have the flexibility to dedicate quality time to your pets and provide reliable, attentive care. If a birth call overlaps with a booking, I will communicate as early as possible and make sure we have a clear plan in place. My goal is to create a dependable routine for your pets, while giving you peace of mind that they are cared for, loved, and never forgotten. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for your pets. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or providing visits, I focus on maintaining their normal routine and creating a calm, familiar environment, where they feel secure. When caring for pets in their own home, I believe consistency is key. I follow your instructions carefully, respect your space, keep your home, secure, and pay attention to the little details that help your pets to feel comfortable while you’re away. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel connected and confident that your pets are happy and well cared for. For walks and drop in visits, I prioritize, safe handling, awareness of surroundings, and your pets individual needs and personality. I take the time to understand their routines, triggers, preferences, and comfort level before providing care. As an animal lover, pet parent, and experienced caregiver, I understand the trust involved in allowing someone to take care of your furry family members. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and dependable experience that gives both you and your pets peace of mind.

I have boarded as many as 4 dogs at one time and have cared for senior dogs (18+). Reach out for information on boarding opportunities and/or for additional details. I am here full-time and available currently for boarding any time of the day as well as on weekends. I maintain full care of my two, so the more, the merrier!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who knows that every pup has their own personality, quirks, and needs. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a senior needing a little extra patience, or somewhere in between, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I’ve completed in-home pet sitting for an elderly Husky with incontinence issues, so I’m comfortable with senior dogs, medication routines, accidents, and providing the extra attention they deserve. I also cared for my own dog through two battles with liver cancer, which taught me the importance of compassion, consistency, and paying attention to the little things. These days, I’m the proud dog mom of a young pup who’s finally made it through the “terrible twos,” so I’m no stranger to energetic dogs, training, and keeping them mentally and physically engaged. I also have a sweet red-nose Pit Bull who is an absolute angel at home—but definitely reminds me to stay on my toes during walks because she loves to pull! Thanks to her, I’m confident handling strong, enthusiastic walkers. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, exercise, playtime, and updates so you can relax knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry family! Pet care is already a big part of my daily life! I’m a full-time dog mom and a fitness trainer, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Because I create my own hours, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to walks, playtime, feeding schedules, potty breaks, and giving pets the attention they deserve. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze into my day—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and make a priority. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is to keep their routine as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I live in an apartment community with plenty of safe walking paths and a beautiful pond, so daily walks are a regular part of our routine. Every “special walk” includes a stop by the community center, where pups get a well-earned treat (with your permission, of course!). I’ll also make sure they have plenty of playtime, fresh water, affection, and lots of updates so you know they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Lacey is fabulous! He is polite, patient, and flexible. He walked my 89 year old mother’s dog and handled her constantly changing requests with grace and kindness. Her old dog adapted quickly to his visits and waited by the door for him to arrive. He arrived on time for every walk, printed out the schedule for my mom who forgets things, and was just all-around wonderful. I highly recommend him and thank him for everything he has done.”
“I cannot recommend Jennifer highly enough! It gives me tremendous peace of mind knowing my dog is in such caring and capable hands. Walker is dependable, professional, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. My dog gets excited every time they arrive, which says everything I need to know. Communication is excellent, with updates and photos that make me feel connected even when I’m away. Walker is always punctual, attentive to my dog’s needs, and goes above and beyond to ensure every walk is safe, fun, and enriching.

About: Hi! My name is Ashton and I have 7 years experience in check-in pet care for dogs and cats. Growing up on a farm, I was always been around animals but my love for animals grew even more when I adopted my soul cat, Biscuit. If I could have an house full of pets I would, but unfortunately due to Biscuits medical issues, he requires being the only animal in the house. This is why I love pet sitting so much!! It allows me to love on so many different fur babies! I have experience with all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I can also provide extra patience/attention to animals who may be shy/nervous or may have anxiety (social, separation, storm, etc.) I am knowledgeable on specific special needs such as dietary restrictions and medication administration.

Can’t wait to love on your fur babies! I currently work from home full time during the week. With my ability to work remotely, I am available during the day, as well as afternoons. Also, have open availability on the weekends. Not providing care in my home at the moment. Only available for care at the owners home due to already having a pet in the home
About: Hello! I'm Paiton and I LOVE animals! I have 5 dogs, one lizard, and a bunch of plants. I spend my time caring for my pets, making sure each one has the quality of life they deserve. I am super cautious about who takes care of my pets when I am away, and often too nervous to leave them alone! If you're the same way as me, let me give you the comfort of knowing that I will care for your pet(s) like they are one of my own. My mom has been in the pet-care business for almost 10 years, and I have been able to gain experience through her as well. Thanks, Mom! I have experience with young cats and dogs, as well as senior dogs. I am a full-time college student and will be working part-time, but until school starts I am an open book! I will make sure to update my schedule once the school season starts. I will take care of your pet as if it were my own. On walks I will be sure to keep them safe and always keep a watchful eye on them! In your home I will make sure everything is put back in it’s place (treats, toys, leashes etc.)
About: I have had the pleasure to work with animals since the beginning of high school when I first began pet sitting. This is when I discovered my loving for caring for pets and homes when family where out of town or simply need someone to check in through out the day. As a college student pet care fits into my schedule perfectly to where I can tend to pets needs in between classes and not have any time strenuous obligations that interfere with my pet care. When watching over a family’s pet and home I consider the love and care they treat these things with and the hard work that has bought them these things. When thinking of this I to continue to have the same respect for those cherished items.
“Banjo absolutely loves and waits for Nicole to open the door and take him on a walk. He knows her name before she ever comes which tells me that he’s very excited about the treatment that she does in making him feel comfortable on his walks. what a peaceful feeling for a dog owner to know that their dog is that well taken care of.”
About: My name is Drew, and I am the ultimate animal lover! I spent three years in Denver working in management at an in-home pet care company. I will take the very best care of your pets and provide a fun-loving environment! My pitsky, Quest, is friendly with other pups and loves to run and play all day. If you have an animal that does not like other dogs, I will be happy to drop by and spend time with them in their comfort zone. I have owned a husky and worked with many high-maintenance breeds, as well as having experience working with animals with disabilities and administering medications. I am open to boarding at my home, walks, day visits, and addressing other health needs your animals may have. Thank you, and I hope to pet and play with your fur friends soon! I will be working from 8am - 4pm, Mon. - Fri. During the school year. I have summers off and I am available full time and occasionally able to watch during the Holiday seasons. I have a large fenced and backyard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed.

“Tasha was a wonderful sitter! She took care of Ellie for 6 days and sent us pictures and updates everyday. We were comfortable leaving her and felt she was well taken care of. We will definitely book with Tasha if we need a sitter again!”
“This was our second stay with Jordan, and I realized I never left a review after the first one. However, I definitely should have! As a first time Rover user, in fact the first time ever leaving my 9-year old pup with a stranger, I was incredibly nervous about leaving my dog with someone new. Jordan completely exceeded my expectations. He sent thoughtful updates throughout the stay with a plethora of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was obvious that my dog was being loved and well cared for. Not only is Jordan amazing, but his family is so kind and welcoming. You can truly tell they care about the dogs they watch and treat them like part of the family. Knowing my pup was safe, happy, and surrounded by so much love made all the difference. I can't thank Jordan enough for taking such great care of my dog, Lily. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and communicative, I highly recommend booking with him. We'll definitely be back!”

“Andrew and Erin, I’ve been the best pet sitters we could ask for! Our little multi-Pooh, Chloe, absolutely loves them, and has a great time with them!

“Kelly was a great sitter! This was the first time we boarded our dog with her and she kept us updated everyday and sent the cutest pictures!

Would highly recommend Kelly for boarding!”

“Ollie and Chief loved their stay with Natalie and her family! Ollie got to play with Natalies dog Rocky and get some of his energy out. Natalie was able to take care of Chiefs senior dog needs (like his diapers!) and treated the dogs as her own. We will definitely use her again in the future since she took such great care of our fur babies!”
