House Sitting Altona

“August is outstanding. We've had August watch Woogie (aussie) at our home on three occasions. If he is available, don't hesitate to book him!”

“Taylor was very caring and conscientious with our pets and our home. He ran with our huskies and snuggled with our cat. He also administered meds effectively. Highly recommend!”

“Connie did a great job looking after our dog Tilda and our rabbit Gizmo while we were out of town. I was extremely anxious with this being the first time leaving Tilda since adopting her with a stranger, but Connie handled it very well and was very communicative with me and listening to our wishes. Thanks Connie for taking such great care of our babies!”

“We are so happy to have found Arianna! Our dog is nervous around new people and it takes someone confident and comfortable to win his trust. Arianna was very patient and persistent and won him over. Felt so good to leave for several days knowing he was not just being fed but encouraged, exercised, loved. I appreciate all her efforts and def book again!”

“Madison is super responsive and was flexible with us when we needed to add a day due to family emergency, then extend by a day because of winter storm travel delays! She sent pics and updates each day that kept us informed. Madison charmed our cat who is not easy to win over & our dog looked relaxed and happy in every picture. The house was in great shape when we finally did make it home!”

“Zoe was able to watch Ardbeg for a weekend getaway - jumping in on very short notice. She took fantastic care of Ardbeg and kept us updated with lots of cute photos. We can tell that he had a fabulous time!”

About: Hi! I’m Olivia — an energetic and caring sitter who truly enjoys keeping homes and animals safe, calm, and well cared for while their humans are away. I have experience caring for a wide range of animals, from dogs and cats to rodents and reptiles, and I’m comfortable adapting to each animal’s unique needs and routines. I also have experience tending houseplants and gardens, ensuring plants are watered, healthy, and thriving while you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, administering medications, maintaining routines, or offering companionship, I treat every home, animal, and plant as if they were my own. I’m excited to provide you with peace of mind and a truly cared-for home while you’re away. Pet care fits really well into my life right now—I'm a seasonal farmer, so winter months give me a lot of open time and flexibility. If I'm petsitting for your loved ones and your home, I can provide them lots of affection, care, and quality time doing their favorite things, whether that's lounging in the house or hiking in the sun and the snow. Whatever their pace, I'm happy to match it and make sure they feel comfortable and loved the whole time. I get to know each pet's routine and personality before jumping in, so they feel comfortable with me quickly. Whether it's walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I stick to their normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, and any meds, and I pay close attention to their energy and mood so I can adjust as needed—extra patience for the nervous ones, extra playtime for the energetic ones! I send photo updates so owners can relax, and I always leave the house just as tidy as I found it.

About: I work from home 4/5 days a week and have full availability for house sitting, multiple daily drop ins/walks. I have experience pet sitting for both dogs and cats, and I have personal experience taking care of cats, birds, fish and bunnies. I'm also a huge plant enthusiast (I currently have ~50 houseplants)! I would be happy to water or maintain your plants while you were away as well if you'd like. I currently have a sassy little 5 year old black cat at home and she's the love of my life! I know how important it is to have confidence that your pets will be cared for when you're gone, and I can assure you I'll take care of your furry friends as if they are my own! About this sitter: I work full-time as a Behavioral Health Care Manager locally in Boulder. I work from home 4/5 days a week and would have a lot of flexibility with your pet's schedule. I also am available for house sitting for extended periods of time since I can work from wherever. When I am not working, I love spending time outdoors, practicing yoga, watching movies, hiking, reading, gardening, taking care of my plants, hanging out with Bella, and cooking. I love dogs, but have never owned one of my own due to it not being feasible in past living situations. I have dog/cat sat for many of my friends in both my home and theirs. I do not have any breed preferences, but do not feel comfortable with very large dogs. I would like to know if your pet is up to date on vaccinations, flea and tick preventative, and heartworm preventative. I would like to know if your pet has any medical issues that I would need to attend to, medications that they take, or if they have any special routines/behaviors that I should look out for. I would be able to spend time with your pet before work in the morning, throughout the day and during the evenings. I am usually home most weekends as well. Meet my pets I have one cat, a 5-year old void named Bella. She adopted me back in December from the Longmont Humane Society. It took her awhile to warm up, but she has settled in to life with me, and loves to play, "hunt" birds, nap and she fetches too! :) I work from home, so I have a lot of flexibility with my schedule. I am available to house sit for extended periods of time due to flexible work from home schedule. I would be available for multiple daily check ins if necessary (up to three/day). When caring for pets in someone else’s home, I treat their space and routines with the same respect and care I would give my own. I take time to learn each pet’s unique needs, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications, favorite activities, and any special instructions from their family. My aim is to create a calm, comfortable environment so pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship while maintaining their normal routines as much as possible. I am organized and keep a clean environment, which I would extend to your home as well. I am happy to send regular updates/photos and keep the communication open with owners during their time away so that they are confident that their pet is being well taken care of.

“Leandra was quick to respond and sent me lots of pics of my little pup when I was away. She left the place clean and was easy to talk with. Thank you!!!”

“Roxy was a fantastic communicator and took great care of our cat! She went above and beyond cleaning up and leaving everything exactly as we left it. We look forward to using her again!”

Ryan E.

“Sarah was incredible. Felt very good about leaving my dogs in her care and she did a phenomenal job. Looking forward to working with her in the future!”

Austin C.

“Georgie is always amazing at taking care of our girl suz, but this sit was unique in the fact that I was in the hospital much longer than expected, and Georgie was so helpful in staying longer with Suz. I honestly don’t know what we would have done without Georgie. She made such a huge difference in our lives during a busy unpredictable time. Forever grateful.”

Samara R.

“Brenna was absolutely fantastic. She met with me for an hour prior to house sitting my senior kitty. She asked good questions. I loved getting her photos and updates. I had so much peace of mind while away. She also went above and beyond to wash the sheets and tidy up the home before she left. Highly recommend and would love her to watch little Precious again!”

Lexi M.

“Zach is wonderful! He is responsive, flexible, and understanding. He pays attention to details and cares deeply. Plus, my dogs seemed comfortable with him in their first meeting.”

Carolina B.

“Madeline did a great job with our puppy!! She sent updates and cute pictures. Maggie loved her!”

Sarah K.

“Dylan is thoughtful, neat, and a high quality communicator. She's quickly become a go-to for me because I never worry about my house or two large pups.”

Ram K.

“Callie was great! She was responsive and took wonderful care of our older puggle Bella, and also took great care of our home while we were away. Will definitely hope she's available for our next trip!”

Travis R.

“Jacob was an exceptional sitter for our 10-week-old Border Collie puppy, Heidi. He was incredibly kind, attentive, and patient with all the needs that come with a puppy this young. He was always on time, highly responsive, and made us feel completely comfortable knowing Heidi was in great hands. He was also wonderfully accommodating of our admittedly “helicopter parent” tendencies, keeping us informed and giving Heidi plenty of attention, play, and care throughout the day. Most importantly, it was obvious that Jacob genuinely enjoyed spending time with our fur-baby, and Heidi clearly enjoyed her time with him as well. We would absolutely trust Jacob with Heidi again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and genuinely engaged sitter.”

Camden K.

“Peter did a great job watching our two dogs for the week. Highly recommend!”
