“Courtney is excellent! She was awesome with our kitties and also great at communicating with us. She made it easy for us to be away. We'll definitely be using her again and recommend her with no hesitation!”
“Crystal has been an amazing sitter while I’ve been out of town for work. Great communication, sent pictures and kept me updated on everything going on when she arrived and left my house. She took excellent care of my three dogs, including my senior pup who needs a little extra attention. She went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for while I was away. I highly recommend her for all your pet sitting needs!”
“We appreciate Gabbi coming over to our house and taking care of all the kitties we have. Special thanks for keeping both litter boxes clean as our cats grow senior. She also took in the deliveries. Will definitely recommend and reach out again.”
“As a nervous cat mom, I was worried about finding someone I could trust to care for Daisy. Jenny put me at ease immediately when we met and shared stories about her own cats I could relate to. I felt comfortable leaving Daisy knowing Jenny would take good care of her. Her notes about her visits were so helpful and Daisy was well fed and cared for when I returned. This was a wonderful experience for both Daisy and I.”
About: I specialize in medical animal care, and special needs clients. I know a lot of basic injury/ER care treatments and you can feel safe with your special needs babies in my care 💕 Starting at very young, before I could even say it correctly, I was always excited to tell people that I wanted to be a "vegetarian" (Veterinarian)! I started taking care of my aunts animals and her "zoo" when I was about 7 years old, 3 times a year. She knew others who needed animal care, feeding brushing walking, ect, and I began taking care of others' animals as well for years! Continued with this all throughout the time that I waitresses, but few years later got a job as a doggy day care attendant. Which put me into the position of a groomer a year later, and then even a dog trainer the next year. I now work at an after hours animal ER and as a Veterinarians assistant. I really do believe you can fully trust me with your animals, as I've been doing it for years. It makes me nervous putting my own animals in others care, but I would trust myself 10 times over! I am availabile Monday through Sunday and anytime, if any special accommodations needed, you can feel free to reach out and see what I can do for you and your family ❤️ In others home, I really focus on getting to know the animals, and letting them wind down outside. I try to read each animal, as they are all different and usually display very obvious body language.
“We’ve hired Jill multiple times for everything from a night or weekend away to a 10-day vacation. She actually spends time with our cats, not just filling the food bowl and cleaning the litterbox. She talks to them, plays with them, and genuinely cares. She’s the best animal sitter we’ve ever had and I feel so lucky to have found her. I highly, highly recommend her for both dogs and cats and probably any other critter who needs some care while you’re away!”
About: I’ve always had a heart for little critters, both wild and domesticated. I love to get to know them and care for them and give them as good a life I can for whatever part I have in it. I take care of my cat every day and I care for my parents dog when they are busy or out of town. Also any friends pets who need sitting. I treat them with respect and care, I make sure they are content and comfortable as they can be and do what I can to keep them safe and happy.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs every kind for as long as I can remember weather it was for my parents, friends and neighbors. They have trusted in me to make sure they being taken care of I’m currently a stay at home mom and have plenty of time on my hands to care for your fur babies and I’ve also grown up my whole life with animals in my house I have a fenced in yard and and a 6 month old puppy that will keep your fur baby company. I love to play with fur babies
About: I’ve ALWAYS owned a dog, I’ve been working with them for 4yrs and I understand their behaviors, what is good for them and what isn’t, I’ve cared for all sizes and ages and breeds, I’ve trained some dog as well, I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter, I am working part time has of now, and I love early mornings, but I can always make room in my evenings, I am moving out of my parents soon and would like to be able to afford it. I have one dog who loves other dogs, I have a fenced in yard right now, I can crate train if needed, I also have toys to keep your dog entertained.
About: I'm a retired veteran, finally able to do what I truly love which is caring for pets and being around my furry fourlegged friends . I am retired and more than willing and a able to take care of your pet/ pets on any days or time you may need. I will always make sure that your pet is secured on its lead, and make sure their surroundings are clear of any kind of danger.
About: I’ve had animals of my own since I was little. Growing up I would often pet sit for family. More recently, I’ve rescued two cats within the past 3 years. They’re my world! I’ve recently started pet sitting for my friend on occasion and wanted to find more pet sitting opportunities because I enjoy it so much! I work from home Monday-Friday 8-5 with a lunch break from 12-1. However, I work at my own pace so I am able to leave if needed. I also work a part time job on the weekends where the hours vary. I’ll always be available after 6pm. I pay close attention to detail specific to each pet since each pet has their own set of needs. I like getting to know their personalities and earning their trust. I understand that pets are an extension of the family and I respect them as such. I also understand the worry of leaving your pets at home and the separation anxiety that pet and owner can experience, so I always offer pictures of your pets so you don’t feel like you’re missing out on much!
About: Long-time local serving Eagle and Summit County. Willing to travel for pick up/drop off. I’m happy to stop in multiple times a day, go for walks, or organize an overnight stay. I’m familiar with local dog parks and trails, and have reliable transportation. Shoot me a message to plan care for your dog while you’re going out of town, or in town visiting the mountains! I have a very flexible schedule, making it easy for me to stop in multiple times a day, or go for long walks with your dog. At my home, I have a fenced balcony on a ground floor and a specific place to walk dogs. I like to go on local trails for longer walks. In clients homes, I like to stick to the routine and methods explained to keep a predictable schedule for the dog.
