“Deb lived up to her already established 5 star rating. I enjoyed our meet & greet very much and so did Piper and Razzi. The pups get excited when they see someone new and she was able to calm them right down. She is definitely a dog person and they could sense that! I felt perfectly comfortable leaving my fur babies with her and knew that she was going to keep them safe and give them the attention they needed! I hope she will be available in the future since she has already bonded with them! She was also responsible with my home and her arrival and departure times. I would refer her to any dog parents who are looking for exceptional care for their pets and home!”
“Merran is AWESOME! Two of our three pups are quite shy with new people and they took to her so quickly for her short stay. We loved getting the photos and updates every day while away & felt great about being away for the first time in a while - thanks Merran!”
About: I grew up with cats (5 to be exact) and a dog. Since that time, I have lived with a dog for the past two year. I have been cat and dog sitting for three years in Durango and in my previous home in Salt Lake City. I love most animals and have a lot of patience and love! I work remotely 9-5 from Monday-Thursday, so I can be home with your pet all day! I can walk them before and after work, and let them out to use the bathroom anytime during the day. My only requirement is a quiet space to work and good internet. I will be patient and loving with your pet. I know it takes time for pets to warm up to new people. I am good at approaching animals slowly and calmly so that they feel safe with me!
“Donna was awesome! Stayed in an Air BNB in Durango. The train the runs from Durango to silverton does not allow dogs and Donna saved us! She provided great updates and took great care of our pups”
“Lori was an amazing sitter. She went above and beyond to take great care of my dogs after one had surgery and needed a new cone. Would definitely want her to watch my dogs again in the future.”
“Cristin did a great job with my geriatric boys. She had elderly dogs and knew/understood the needs of my guys. Thank you Cristin and you will be hearing from us again when we need TLC for Oakley and Romeo when we are away.”
“There aren’t enough stars to give Hannah. She cared for my house, 4 dogs and a cat for 10 days while my wife and I were in Scotland. When one of my dogs was injured in our absence, she took her to the vet. She administered medicine to the injured hound and the elder dog of 17 years old. I threw a lot of work at Hannah but she did an amazing job. She never complained once. A real trooper! Such peace of mind to have Hannah watch over all that is precious to us. So trustworthy, competent and reliable. What a marvelous young woman. Anyone hiring Hannah will be thrilled.”
