Cat Sitting Bark Ranch

“Pete is a fantastic communicator, is so professional, and is so good with our pups! He easily handled their excited energy and even came a bit early to check in on them after I told him one of them had an upset stomach. We highly recommend Pete!”

About: Hello! I'm a friendly and compassionate human who is ready to care for your animal when life is busy or hectic. I'm very genuine and trust-worthy and promise to follow instructions carefully so that your loved one stays happy and well. I've lived with animals most of my life and pet sit for friends and family regularly. While I'm in a transitional time in my life, I have all the time in the world to take your pet on a nice walk (I also LOVE the outdoors), or to the local dog park, and make sure they get a meal if needed. Here to make your life easier, don't hesitate to contact me and I hope to meet you and your fur baby soon! I’m available after 4pm Monday-Thursday, and fully available throughout the weekend. I’m currently enrolled in a full-time education program, so being able to have control over my scheduling with others is very helpful. I have two cats in my home, they’re able to be kept in a room if I’m with a dog that is cat adverse or has a strong hunting instinct. We have a nice patio, but no yard. We live in a quiet neighborhood that is great for walks and close by to parks. I can tailor our itinerary depending on the pet’s needs and am eager to do so. I love being active and outdoors and so do most of the animals I watch.

About: Hi there! All my life I have been an animal lover and for the last 8 years I have raised my own dog, and taken care of other dogs for families I used to babysit for. I can fit in any lifestyle your pet has, whether they are active or a stay-at-home. I can fit any accommodation as I work from home, love to exercise (so your dog would get plenty of it, if need be), and I'm incredibly flexible and will be normally free to help you more than not. At the same time, I raised my dog since she was a puppy so I do have experience with younger, more energetic dogs and overall I would simply love to help and treat your dogs like family. I hope we can talk soon! I'm super flexible and work from home at the moment so I basically can take care of your dogs whenever you may need it. I will certainly be more free for your dog rather than not! I will care for your pet in your home however you see fit. I do what is asked and can fit any accommodation whether your dog has a lot of needs, or simply needs a walk and some playtime. I'm happy to help however it may be!

“Sophia was so great with my older pup! On her drop in visits she made sure he had his bathroom breaks, food, and meds and took time to give him plenty of love and play time! She also was great in taking him for walks. Sophia was also great about communication and photos. I would definitely recommend and use Sophia again!”

“Jennifer is AMAZING! We will definitely be using her again to care for our sweet Micah. Jennifer provided consistent and fun updates detailing her time with Micah (and Jennifer sends plenty of pictures)! 10000% recommended!”

“Drop-in visits have been a big success. Taylor loves Kat! Seems to know she’s “his person” and shows great affection for her. Hopefully, Wookiee, the tortie, will feel the same when she comes out of hiding.”

About: I grew up with two dogs and regularly dog sat and walked for about 8 years. I hope to continue this now that I live in boulder because I love and miss my dogs! I am a student, so my schedule varies but I am usually free in the mornings and late afternoons. Overall I have a very flexible schedule. I am a flexible person and can accommodate to mostly any needs. My current housing does not allow animals, I am more interested in walking

“Amber helped with a very last minute request and I am so grateful for her!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and gentle attention. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, reinforcing training routines, and providing plenty of exercise and enrichment. I am a college student, but am great about scheduling drop-ins, or walks in between classes as needed. I am also available for extended overnight stays! I prioritize clear communication and reliability, so you can count on me to show up consistently and on time. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In your home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, routines, and house rules to maintain consistency. I double-check doors, leashes, and gates to ensure security at all times. I also provide updates and photos so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. I aim to create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe and cared for.

“Was available super last minute and was able to hang out with Dice and Teddy for a little!”

About: I grew up always surrounded by cats and dogs in my house and experience working in an animal shelter. I love all pups! Any breed, size or age😊💕 I am an Elementary School Teacher with hours 8-2:30 in boulder. If this works for your pups schedule we will have a great time!! Plus full availability after work and on weekends I care for other peoples pets as they are my own because that is how I would want someone to treat mine! I am caring and kind to all animals.

About: I just moved back to Colorado from Southern CA where I used work for a non-profit where I train dogs to become service dogs for individuals with disabilities! I can handle large groups of dogs and love giving special attention to any pet :) I had cats and dogs growing up and during college, I watched many of my friends’ dogs for a few hours, up to a few weeks. ** message me if you have scheduling questions! I can be more accommodating than this app’s calendar :) I work full-time, so I am looking to help watch pets on weekends and over the upcoming winter holiday season. I am comfortable staying at a client's home and doing longer-term pet care as long as the animal can be alone during the day for an 8 hour work day. If your home is near Oceanside, I can stop in during my lunch break to let your pets out to toilet. I will keep dogs on leash unless in a trusted, enclosed area. For safety reasons, I will not be using a Flexi-leash. I will always make sure your pet has ample clean water. I am more than happy to send photos and updates on your pet while they're in my care! As of July 12, I am certified in Cat and Dog First Aid from the American Red Cross, and for my job, I have been trained to be alert to allergic reactions and typical dog stats.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have experience caring for cats, dogs, and many other kinds of animals. I know that every pet is unique and deserves individualized care, patience, and affection. I enjoy getting to know each pets quirks and what makes them feel happy and safe. I’m attentive, and pay attention to the details. Just tell me what you need and I’ll be happy to provide whatever is required for you and your pet to feel cared for and comfortable! I’m currently a Biochemistry student at CU Boulder and am home in Connecticut for the summer. In between now and when school starts I have tons of free time and have the flexibility to work with whatever schedule is best for you! I take extreme care in client’s homes and am always respectful of their space. I am careful to never breach anyone’s privacy and do whatever is needed to make the client feel secure. As for the pet/pets, I am very attentive to their needs. I pay close attention to things like body language to insure they are happy and healthy.

About: I have experience with dogs of all variety and sizes, from 10 pound Shih-Tzus to large Goldens and Labs! All ages are fine with me as well. I do not work in an office currently, so I have a lot of flexibility. I love to go on daily walks and spend time outside, so it would be a pleasure to have your dog join me! I can't wait to spend time with your furry friend! I would prefer to watch your pet in your home, and I can crate your dog or take any safety/boarding measures that you recommend. I won’t let your pup out of my sight when outside!

About: I am a huge dog lover who loves fetching with them, playing with them, and giving them tons of loves!! I love walking them if that’s part of their routine, and am just overjoyed to be able to hang out with them and give them a safe space while their humans are away! I have had and cared for dogs for over a decade and am very comfortable with all breeds and schedules. I am a part time student who has plenty of time over the summer. I’m happy to stay at the home so that your dog is in their safe space. I am very big on making sure they get the exercise and play that they need to stay feeling happy! My work shifts from time to time will keep me out of the house for ~6 hours at a time, but if that is unfitting of your dogs needs I’m happy to ensure that my work doesn’t overlap with my time staying with them. I am careful to be aware of the dogs schedule in your home and ensure that feeding, exercise, and sleep routines are maintained to ensure your dogs comfort. I will always make sure to carefully adhere to instruction, I am here to make the best possible environment for your dog(s) and nothing less!

“Aspen was a great pet sitter for our two cats. Very responsive and communicative, clearly comfortable with cats, and managed to coax out our shy cat who normally hides from strangers. We would definitely book Aspen again for cat drop-ins.”
