“Eric did a fantastic job watching my pup this past week on short notice while I was at work. He was very responsive and helpful, and made sure to send pictures here and there throughout the day. My pup came home happy and well looked after, and I could not be more grateful. We will definitely be back!”
About: Hello! My name is Jackie and I've been a dog mom for over 20 years. My first pup was a Golden Retriever named Sam and my second is an Aussie named Norman. Long before Rover I would often house/pet sit for friends. I have experience with all ages of dogs. I cared for my good ole boy Sam from puppyhood until he was almost 15. On the other hand, Aussie Norman is high-functioning and anxious dog. He gets along well with other pups and loves playing. I work from home and am able to let dogs out as often as necessary, plus I have a doggie door. We live in a great neighborhood where it is easy to go out for walks. My house has a doggie dog that fits pups up to 80 lbs! It gives them great freedom to move in and out for bathroom breaks as they wish. Although the house is small, it has a large backyard. Norman is a friendly Aussie who loves other dogs, big and small, and would love a play friend. Pups can sit on the couch, just not the beds.
“Winnie had a great time at Jessica’s house playing with Reggie and Frankie! Great backyard to explore, and great communication. Would definitely book again!”
About: My husband and I dearly miss the company and compassion of our golden retriever and collie. So, missing having a pet around, we have joined Rover as a to be able to extend our warmth to other people's pets. We like to express ourselves to a dog/puppy through cuddling, brushing, belly rubs, and active walks that delight them. We have a third-of-an-acre, fully fenced-in backyard (see our pics!) as well as an array of large public parks within a mile of our house. And we have to mention the nice doggy pool we have added! We are well accustomed to attending to feeding schedules, walking schedules, and hugging time (always). As my husband and I are both at home 24/7, we keep a close eye and ear on the barking and tail wagging, and we don't leave the pet unattended for a minute. We are a couple in midlife who have oodles of time to spend attending to a pet. We have a large fenced-in yard (1/3 acre), a large doggy pool, and multiple city parks within walking distance. Over the past 12 years, we have had our two loving dogs together, and they have trained us well to be attentive to potty breaks, exercise and romping, meal times, occasional snacks, and cuddles.
“Both my dogs settled in record time! Lindsay provided updates, report cards and plenty of pictures. It was a relief to see my pets sleeping on their backs next Lindsay. Her genuine love for pets was apparent from the first moment we all met. We are grateful to have found Lindsay and we wish her the best!”
“Luke was so accommodating! We had a very short notice requirement and he worked with us so well to accommodate our pups! They loved their time there and were so sad to leave. Thanks so much!!”
About: Your pup deserves the best and we’ll make sure to treat them like they’re apart of our family! Matt has grown up with dogs his whole life and Srividhya started watching dogs 8 years ago when she started taking care of Matt’s parent’s dogs. We are available to board and host your dog on most weekdays and weekends! Both of us work from home, so we can pay close attention to your dog. Contact us for availability and feel free to reach out if you need us to accommodate any specific needs. We do not have kids but do have one puppy, so your dog will by our main priority. We have a fully fenced large yard!
“Irina and her boyfriend took excellent care of Griffin. He was so excited to be there and we received lots of pictures of the fun he was having. We enjoyed getting to know them and highly recommend them to others.”
“Our sweet Gus had an awesome time with Cory and his pups! Gus ran right up to Cory and didn’t even look back on his way inside—Cory is clearly wonderful with dogs. Gus came home tired and happy after his first day of daycare!”
About: My husband and I had our wonderful dog Allie for 12 years. With her recently passing away, we are looking to hang out with some more dogs just to have some extra love and energy around the house. We still love taking walks around our neighborhood and enjoying the park just down the street. I currently work remotely (and will occasionally go into my office) so I have plenty of availability during the week to enjoy a little companion. I have a dog bed, crate and plenty of toys. We also have a large fenced in back yard - the perfect oasis for any dog.
“Torre took excellent care of my senior dog, giving her meds and following lots of "special instructions." She communicated well with me throughout the day and sent lots of reassuring pictures. I would use her again in a heartbeat and recommend her without hesitation.”
“Erik is so great. A calm, reassuring presence for the dogs. My 2 were worn out! I absolutely love that Erik sent me pictures & videos during the day so I could have confidence knowing my babies were all good. Thank you!”
“Iliana was so good with our dog! I highly recommend her to doggie daycare services. She had a nice, clean home and she definitely loves animals!! I felt comfortable leaving our dog with her. It was very nice that she sent pictures of him while he stayed with her!!”
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, I offer reliable, attentive pet sitting that puts your pet’s comfort first. I’ve worked with everything from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and support. I’m confident with feeding routines, long walks, and lots of playtime and affection. My goal is always to keep your pet’s daily routine consistent, make them feel secure, and give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every animal as if they were my own,because I know how important they are to you. Since both my partner and I work from home, pet care blends naturally into our everyday life. We love starting the day with a walk or playtime, checking in throughout the day, and ending the evening with snuggles or a relaxed wind-down. Having two people at home means there’s always someone nearby to give attention, reassurance, or a quick treat break. It never feels like work; it’s simply part of what we enjoy doing together. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and consistent environment. At home, pets enjoy a structured routine with plenty of playtime, regular walks, and lots of companionship, especially since both my partner and I work from home full-time. We’re able to offer nearly constant supervision, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of love throughout the day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their established routines closely. I maintain feeding schedules, provide refreshing walks and play sessions, keep their space tidy, and send regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and secure, whether they’re staying with us or I’m visiting them in their familiar space.
“Ally took great care of my anxious dog on very short notice! She was very accommodating of his specific needs and very communicative. Will definitely book with her again!”
About: Hi! I’m Audrey. As a lifelong animal lover, I can’t resist saying “hi” to every Doggo and KitKat I meet (yes, I talk to pets like they’re people—because they are). I’ve always been the go-to sitter for friends and family, so officially offering pet care feels like the perfect fit. I work full-time from home as a Social Worker, which gives me the flexibility to check in, take walks, or provide mid-day cuddles when your furry friend needs them most. I have experience with pets of all sizes—from tiny pups to gentle giants—and I’m comfortable with breeds that sometimes get labeled “difficult.” Administering medications, caring for special needs pets, or managing quirky behaviors doesn’t faze me; I’m all about keeping pets safe, happy, and loved. Whether your pet loves long walks, endless belly rubs, or just a treat-toting companion, I’m here to make their day amazing while you’re away. References are available upon request, and I’d be thrilled to care for your furry family member! Fun Facts About Me: *I never say no to belly rubs or head scratches 🐶 *Expert in treat distribution (your dog’s opinion only) 🍪 *Can throw a tennis ball like a pro—or at least try 🎾 *Fluent in Barks, Meows & Tail Wags 🐾 *Will happily join your pup on walks… rain or shine ☔ *Occasionally speaks in “woofs” and “meows” for maximum rapport 😸 *I also work in the pet industry... so I really am your dog's "plug". I currently work full time from home as a Social Worker, so I am happy to spend time walking or simply check in on your 4 legged best friend! If I am boarding or dog sitting in my home I would need their crate/bed if applicable! Also pending all services we would need to do a meeting and greet with my pup to ensure it’s a good fit!
“Amazing people and care! My pup never wanted to leave, he had such a fun time! Always tired when he came back home and clearly well looked after during the day. 100/10 recommend Chelsea and Charles!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wheat Ridge
Chelsea and Chuck were awesome with our 2 (Buckeye & Bessie). I dropped them off in the morning and picked them up late that night. My pups had a beautiful fenced in yard to play in, got a walk and were given their food. I was so thankful to meet such wonderful people who loved caring for our 2 golden retrievers.i will definitely use them again when visiting Denver in the future.
Lindsay was absolutely wonderful with Finn! From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease leaving him in her care. It was obvious Finn was happy, well cared for, and got plenty of love and attention. I would absolutely book with Lindsay again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their dog!
Anna’s dog day care was amazing! We received lots of pics and videos during the day and I was able to rest easy at work knowing that my puppy was being taken such good care of. She even went on a walk in addition to the dogs getting to play out in a big yard most of the day. Anna is very trustworthy and reliable.
We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Perri! She was incredibly kind and attentive with our pup, and from the very first interaction she made us feel completely at ease leaving our dog in her care. Perri was wonderfully flexible with her schedule, which made everything so much less stressful for us. We also loved that our dog got to socialize with other dogs — she came home happy and worn out in the best way. We’ll absolutely be booking with Perri again and highly recommend her to any pet owner looking for someone they can truly trust!
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with our dog sitters last night! They watched our dog until 11 PM while we were at a concert, which was such a huge help and gave us complete peace of mind. From the moment we met them, they were incredibly friendly, thoughtful, and caring. It was obvious our dog was in great hands and being well cared for the entire evening. Knowing we could relax and enjoy our night out without worrying meant everything. We truly appreciate their kindness, flexibility, and genuine love for animals. Highly recommend to anyone looking for trustworthy and dependable pet sitters!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Wheat Ridge commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CO ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy.
