“We've used Mary many times - she is incredibly reliable and conscientious, and I love that she always sends pics and detailed notes from her visits!”
“Ideal!”
About: With over 40 years of experience caring for cats and dogs, I provide compassionate and attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. Whether your dog loves leisurely walks or energetic hikes, I’m happy to accommodate their activity level. I also specialize in caring for senior pets, ensuring they receive the gentle attention and support they deserve. As a trusted member of the community for over 20 years, I’m committed to providing a safe, loving, and reliable experience for both pets and their owners. I’m currently working part time and have flexibility in my schedule for walks and home visits as well as over night stays. I’m available week days and weekends. In the comfort and familiarity of your own home, your pet and I will enjoy leisurely conversations, ear scratches, and plenty of play or cuddle time.
About: As a dogmom at heart, I want you to know that I'm here for your dog's needs, of course, and *also yours* as pup papa or dog mama. I'm not here to just "drop in" or walk as many dogs as possible to boost my bottom line - I'm here to show up for *your* fur bubbies with as much time and attention as you, yourself, give to them. If your pup needs exercise, we'll go for long walks or local hikes. If your pup needs sitting, I won't just pop in at the end of the night to let them out to pee before bed; I'll be there *with them* to play and cuddle, sending you updates, photos, and video so you can share in the memories with us. 🌱 Any questions? Don't hesitate to ask! I want you to feel calm and confident that your little love is with the best person for their needs, and yours. With a private massage therapy business, I have tons of flexibility to be available for your fur baby (or babies), and with a convenient location in Snowmass Village, I don't need a lot of notice to book (or cancel) - 2 hours tops! 🌱 Over my life, I've cared for dogs of all sizes - from yorkies to danes - with all kinds of silly personalities and special needs. I'm comfortable with "difficult" dogs (or shall we say 'quirky'), so whether you have a dog with quirks or we come across one who does, your bub (or bubette) is in capable hands. I have this friend who loves to tell me: "Anytime Cal is around you he's always so relaxed and it's clear how safe he feels with you!" In my care, you'll experience the same - coming home to your pet to find he or she has been loved on and well tended to - which you'll already know anyway with the updates you'll have received from me :) And while I'm not a certified dog trainer, I have lots of experience with the basics, and can introduce / will uphold consistency with any commands or cues you and your dog are already familiar with.
About: I am currently living in Carbondale, CO living for the outdoor adventures! I love getting to bring Leo on outdoor adventures with me and would treat your fur baby like my own with lots of love and fun adventures. I decided to get into dog sitting because I’m looking for some side work and what better way to spend my time then with more sweet furry friends! In my personal experience, I have had a wide range of different kinds of pets, such as chickens, lizards, hamsters, cats, and dogs. In my professional life with animal handling, I had the most incredible experience in the past in Colorado to be a part-time dog handler for sled dogs. I have also done a good amount of dog sitting for friends in the past. I can't wait to help out and make some new furry friends and maybe go on an outdoor adventure too! I do work full time but have flexibility in my daily schedule and have weekends open. Just as I treat my dog, I always prioritize a good healthy route and would do the same for your pet. I have a regular route with my dog and would treat and care for anyone else’s pets the same! I understand the importance of a safe and loving experience for your pets as I look for the same for my dog when I’m away. I have a lot of country land I live at with a grassy backyard.
“I was overwhelmed with a new 6 month old puppy and was exhausted! My Vet suggested I try Rover to find a pet sitter. I was exhausted. So I connected with Megan and asked for "HELP" Within 10 minutes she relied "I can help." So we did a meet & greet with my dog Cedella at my cabin. The next afternoon I was off to a music gig for 7 hours...and kenneled my dog. Megan arrived at @ my cabin, as discussed, and handeled my puppy very professionally. I had no worries and enjoyed my performance that night. Thank you Megan, I look forward to having you take care of Cedella again soon. GG 🐾”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats (and birds, rabbits, fish and farm animals). I started dog sitting 20+ years ago. It wasn't something I advertised, instead people asked me because I was a responsible and independent young adult. As I got older and my career took off, pet sitting was something I would do to supplement my income/ and be connected to animals without having the full responsibility that comes with owning a dog. I have experience with breeds and personalities of every kind and understand above all else it's what's most important to any dog is that they feel safe and that they can trust the person they're with. I just closed my brick & mortar business of 15 years and am new to the area, Therefore I have all the availability and focus for your loved ones. If you travel often, I can be a consistent sitter for your pets as opposed to having to find someone new or juggle a few sitters based on their availability. Any time I am in someone's home I care for their pets as they would themselves. Whether it be following a feeding schedule or sitting on the couch together.
About: Hi my name is Anthony, and I’ve been in the Aspen/Vail Valley for 11 years. I’ve always enjoyed taking care of my family’s dogs and cats growing up. I have a 12 year old Bichon that has been with me since college! I have taken care of numerous friends dogs in Vail over the years. I am a contractor and make my own schedule so I am readily available! I am able to give your animals any medicine they require. I’m always flexible to change my schedule to help with your needs! I am very respectful of the customers home, and try to make the dog feel confortable without their owner present. I am not taking in house customers at the moment.
About: I care for each pet with full attention, kindness and respect. I offer gentle care, fun walks and calm connection. Every pet is unique and I do my best to make them feel safe and happy I would love to care for pets as my main job, so I’m happy to help any day of the week. My schedule is flexible and I’m easy to reach. I make sure pets feel at home — whether I’m caring for them in your space or mine. I offer close supervision, gentle handling, and follow their usual schedule. I don’t have a fenced yard, so I only allow outdoor time on leash and under watch.
“Marissa is amazing!! We are traveling to West Yellowstone and in need of someone watching our 8 month old English Cream Golden Retriever. Marissa came through and drove all the way to us so our whole family got to go visit the National Park and had an amazing time. We were delayed in coming back, but Marissa was very understanding and flexible. We highly recommend Marissa if you are traveling to Yellowstone and need someone to watch your fur baby!”
“Cal is ABSOLUTELY wonderful !!! He was so professional and my dogs loved him. He sent pictures at check ins, which is always a sense of relief, knowing our babies are safe and happy! Highly recommend and will be having him again for our next pet sitting need!”
About: I have looked after dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. It goes without saying that I love animals. I have many years experience with my own dogs as well as sitting for others. I have done dog sitting, cat sitting, as well as dog walking. I have a very flexible schedule right now during the fall season but once winter starts I will prefer to work longer term gigs and overnights. I am currently only providing services at your own home as no additional pets can be brought to my current rental house. Thank you :)
About: Hi I’m Karissa! I’m a passionate pet lover and have been dog & cat sitting for many years, having at least 14 years of experience. I love being around animals of all types and can provide whatever care they may need from overnight stays to daily walks. I grew up around my family dogs and over the years have watched, walked, and cared for my neighbors and friends dogs when needed. I have been around and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I work full time, however I am able to accommodate walks, visits, or overnight stays with my work hours. I am typically available all afternoons and evenings in addition to some mornings depending on the day! I understand that pets are not a one size fits all and with that being said, their needs may vary from one another. Whether they’re a puppy with high energy or a homebody, I am here to accommodate their needs and wants and to make them feel as comfortable as I can for the time I’m there.
“Destiny loved on our three kitties while we are away and followed all of our directions. Would definitely hire her again in the future. She also sent pictures of them without us even asking!”
“Shaylee did 2 meal drop-ins for my 2 year old cat Casper! She was there in a timely manner and understood the instructions. Casper loved her tickles! ❤️”
About: I have two dogs and two cats back home in the Philippines, I had them since they were babies. I love taking care of pets especially cats and dogs. I have two jobs from Wednesdays until Sundays. I am off every Mondays and Tuesdays, I can be very flexible with my work schedule, since I get off every 8pm at night every Wednesday through Sundays, I can sit your pets from 8pm until 11pm. But I can be very flexible during Mondays and Tuesdays. I live in a duplex house which is fenced. But I would be willing to sit either at the owner’s house or just walk them.
About: I love dogs and don’t have my own due to my rental situation. I grew up with three family dogs so know how to care for puppies to seniors. I’d love to help give your doggo the daily care it needs with walks during the week. It’ll give me a break from being a cat lady 🐶❤️ I work 40 hours a week, typically M-F so walks on weekends or in the evenings are preferred. My job is in Carbondale so I can get to your dog right after I’m out of work if needed. I’m eager to walk dogs and give them the exercise and love they need. Work schedules and vacations can make doggy care tough but I’d love to get to know your pup and keep it company as we get our daily steps in.
About: I’ve been in the veterinary industry for at over 3 years, certified as a veterinarian’s assistant. Dogs are my favorite animal of all. I’ve rescued so many cats and dogs over the years, and I’m able to handle puppies and older dogs that have special needs as well. Before I moved, I worked at 2 vet clinics at once, one emergency and one day practice. It was wonderful getting to be with the animals. However, I still have a few days off and try to find things to do that will keep me sharp when it comes to animal care! The biggest thing for me is respecting your home and your space. I try to leave everything as it is when I visit homes to care for animals. Your dog feeling safe and calm is really important, I’d hate to see my dog stressed and uncomfortable so I treat pets the same way I’d want my babies treated.
About: Hey thanks for stopping by! I’m a 25yr old adventure enthusiast, but since losing my dog in 2023, I’ve missed having an adventure buddy. When your pet is with me, they’re sure to be happy and worn out by the time you get home! I’ve been house/pet sitting on and off most of my adult life for a wide range of temperaments, sizes, and activity levels. As an active person, I love high energy animals that want to run/hike/play. If your pet is more a chiller, then they surely won’t be short of any snuggles and attention needed. Since I don’t have a stable environment to take in any pets at the moment, I’m happy to come to your pet in the comfort of their own home! Cheers! I do have a couple jobs with inconsistent schedules, so availability is case by case. If I am working and during busy season, it would be from 8am-4pm or 4pm-10pm. I am fairly flexible tho! I would treat your pet the same way I would treat mine. My own dogs have always had pretty much full free range in the house, but I understand and obey boundaries and rules that you have for your pet.
About: My name is Faith and I am a loving dog mom, trainer and pet sitter. I have experience in basic obedience, reactive dogs, separation anxiety, puppy and adult dog socialization and group dog training. I have been sitting for dogs in my home and clients homes for about two years but have fostered lots of dogs for different organizations. I also lived at a rescue full time and took care of all 30 to 45 dogs living there. Whether you need somewhere safe to leave your furkid for the weekend, someone to stay at your home for a few days or just a friendly face to drop in and take care of fido, I've got you covered! Dogs are my passion and caring for them is the best job ever. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and making leaving town as easy as possible.
