Pet Sitting in Aspen

“Megan took excellent care of my girls Betty and Penny. She provided pictures of them which showed me they became very comfortable with her and gave me peace of mind that they were well taken care of. I appreciate her flexibility when I had to add an extra visit at the last minute. Litterbox was kept in great condition for the girls to use and I thoroughly enjoyed reading their Rover cards. I will definitely ask Megan to kitty sit again.”

About: I have taken care of pets since I moved back to CO and love to get back to helping out families and their pets too. I am currently working part time. My job allows breaks to run home if need be and if not dogs are welcome at my work place. I don’t have a yard but love walking or going to the park. I am willing to stay at a client’s home as well too.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15. I treat every dog like they’re my own—learning their quirks, favorite routes, and what makes their tail wag. You’ll always get updates, photos, and peace of mind. I know how important that is. Life happens. I’m here to make things easier for you and your pup with dependable, on-time care. I work for a semi-private airline usually from 11 AM-2:30 PM on Monday’s, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays. Otherwise, I am openly available. I have Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays openly available. When pets stay with me, they become part of the family. I make sure they have a safe, cozy space to relax, stick to their routine as much as possible, and get plenty of attention, play, and love. Whether it's cuddle time, walks, or just hanging out, I tailor the experience to fit their personality and needs. I don’t have backyard in my apartment so I would take the dog outside on their leash to use the restroom and for walks. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their environment calm and familiar. I follow your instructions closely—whether it's feeding, medications, walk times, or play routines. I also make sure your home is respected and secure while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first.

About: Hello friends - my name is Arryn and I recently moved to the Aspen area from NYC. In addition to having over 30+ years of experience caring for animals, I also bring over 20 years of experience working as a veterinary hospital manager. I began my career in animal medicine by volunteering at a local veterinary hospital right out of high school, and instantly fell in love with the profession! Though I temporarily took a break from the field to work for other establishments like the San Diego Zoo, SeaWorld, and Walt Disney World, I eventually returned to the industry I was most passionate about. During my time in the field, I often picked up pet sitting gigs on the side and am comfortable caring for cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. I am also experienced in administering medications, if necessary. I got my first dog, a Doberman Pinscher named Sydney, when I was 9 years old and have had large breed dogs, including a Shepherd/Lab mix, Rhodesian Ridgeback, Pitbull Mix, Siberian Husky, and Silver Labrador, ever since. However, I love the little guys too! I provided long-term care to a one-eyed Boston Terrier named Pappone and was instantly charmed by the big personalities of small breeds! I’m truly a lover of all dogs, and while I don’t have any of my own currently, I am mom to three cats whom I love fiercely. They keep me laughing, brighten each day, and remind me what’s truly important in life: food. Lastly, my inner-millennial would like to note that I did not use AI in the generation of this bio. :) I still work remotely part time for my veterinary clinic in NYC, but have flexibility in my schedule, making it easy to work around yours. :) While I don’t currently offer pet sitting in my home, I am happy to stay in yours, if you like. I am a self proclaimed neat freak and treat other peoples’ homes with the utmost respect.

“Marysa was AWESOME! She sent so many updates, took our pup on walks with hers. Meant the world to have our small dog have a little friend while we went out and about. She was so communicative and our dog even stole her pups bed! 😂 he had a great time and we felt such peace of mind.”

About: I’ve had a dog since I was about 5 years old and I’m good with all ages of Dogs from puppy to senior. I also have experience with cats, fish, and birds. I work 9-5 Monday through Friday in Aspen but that doesn’t mean I can’t watch your dog or cat. I prefer to dog/house sit in Aspen so that I can watch your fur baby and have the time to go take them out and on walks during the day as well. My full time job is flexible enough that I can take the dog out 1-3 times between 9-5 with a good walk at lunch. If well behaved and approved the dog can come with me to work. I’m completely free on the weekends to give my undivided attention to the pups or cats. I take care of your dog at your home to keep them in their environment. This helps them feel more comfortable with a new friend (me) around. I abide by whatever schedule and house rules you set for me and the dog/cat(s). If the dog isn’t allowed on couches, beds, etc., that’s the rule. If the dog has a hard time around other dogs I can keep them on leash and make sure they’re safe in every environment. If your pup goes to a daily doggy play date I will take them. I learn the dogs mannerisms and act accordingly. Dogs are unique like humans and I take that into account for each and every dog. Not only will your pup be well taken care of so will your house. I leave every home in the state I found it or better. I’ve never met a dog that doesn’t like me. Dogs and I always get along.

“Amalia did a great job with a last minute booking! She’s a great communicator and sent photos! It looked like my cat was comfortable with her too!”

“Sarah is the best cat sitter we’ve ever had. She put me at tremendous ease with her caring nature and fantastic communication. Beowulf absolutely loved her! We both look forward to her next visit! Absolutely would recommend and book again!”

Amelia G.

“Kristy was a perfect rover for my cat! She gave very detailed updates and photos. She was patient since my cat was wary of strangers but still enjoys company. Can’t wait to book with her again soon”

About: I grew up around dogs- we had a black lab Otis for 16 years, a mutt Charlie, and my parents back east currently have a 6 year old golden doodle named Cooper! I FaceTime my parents just to talk to him so Id love to get to hang with some doggos and pups! I’m a registered nurse at AVH who works 12 hour shifts, so I’m free all day Saturday/Sunday Monday and Thursdays if you need me :) All the pets! My parents dog hates treats so we but loves people food so I’m super careful and mindful of the “treats” we give (chopped carrots- he loves zucchini) We fed our dogs at the same time and tried to give them a sense of routine/ and lots of love!

“Thanks Janelle was fantastic.”

“Jada was very attentive and caring to my animals. She stayed in constant communication, spent plenty of time with them, and was flexible with schedule changes or extra requests. I highly recommend her.”

About: Since a young age, I have always loved dogs. Any time my friends would need a dog sitter or to just take them on a walk, I would always volunteer. Friends & family relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pups…It just comes very natural to me. So I thought, why not spend time in doing what i love.. I am currently available, so i have plenty of time to take your pups on enjoyable walks around this beautiful town. My schedule is flexible so any time of the day works for me. I always like to meet my furry friends before a walking service. I believe in building trust and familiarity is important. I always try to make sure they feel comfortable with me.

About: Flexible schedule and loving demeanor. I am a huge animal lover and a trustworthy employed local. Will care responsibly for your pet and home. Reliable, mature, respectful. I have a flexible schedule that allows for walks, snuggles, overnights, weekends, you name it. I am very responsible and active and eager to care wonderfully for your pet! I have a safe home close to the bike path and river where walks in nature are easily accessible. I also am available for private home sitting for all animals in any location.

About: Hello I am Alaina! I was born into a family of animals, raising dogs, cats, rabbits, fish and more since I was alive. In my adult life I’ve raised two yellow labs from puppies to now a senior dog. As a dog owner, I will love your animal like my own and more. I have taken care of friend’s animals as well as walking dogs at local shelters. I love to walk, hike, ski, and be outside. I’m free every single days including weekends. I have no children and I do have a 14 year old Yellow Lab. I’m very flexible because of this and able to work with you! I’m located one block off the core in downtown Aspen. I have a large dog crate at my house if needed. I follow all specific house rules and leash rules to keep your pup happy and safe.

About: I started off strong as a teenager, caring for two large dogs for a doctor during her long shifts. Additionally, I grew up with cats and dogs and took a lot of the responsibility as part of my daily routine. My schedule is mostly free during the day and very free in the evening and night, especially Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I am flexible and can adjust as necessary. I always keep an eye on pets. I make sure that if they are outside, there is a secured fenced area. I make sure the environment is calm, as to not overwhelm the pet. I keep the space clean and make sure there are no loose choking hazards.

“Caroline did great with our pups. Very communicative and we got plenty of photos. Not just a quick drop in but hangs out with them for a bit. My boys loved her.”

About: Most of the photos are of my Mom’s two dogs Ari and Buca who live nearby. We don’t introduce animals to her dogs unless we have permission and know they are friendly since they are small. We recently said goodbye to Buca at after 15 years. Kai was the other dog features and it’s been 2 years since she’s been gone. Needless to say I have taken care of puppies to geriatric dogs. I am remote part time and in person the other half so I have a flexible schedule to be at home a lot or frequently. I grew up with animals in Stillwater, Minnesota. I had a cat that I cared for starting when I was 12, as well as a family dog. In those early years I won’t lie my Mom did most of the work, however my love for animals was seeded at that time. My Mother always had birds (love those too!!) and we had a family dog. I know how special those cute little critters can be and have all the time you need to tell me about the specifics of your pet. There is currently no other animal at my place so your pet will be given my full attention. I am a block from a nice walking path so it’s easy to go out often. I really enjoy hiking, perhaps your dog does too. Please keep in mind my rates are what they are because rover keeps at least 20%, thank you! My schedule is currently flexible so I can have a lot of time at “home”. My son and I do enjoy getting out on hikes and adventuring a bit. I feel like we all sleep better with fresh air and a little exercise. We live right across the street from a park downtown Aspen. We can be as active or mellow as your animal needs. We had a 15 year old geriatric dog that I cared for till last year, and my Mom’s dog is a puppy. I understand the spectrum of what a dog may need.
