“Kaitlin was fantastic! Very helpful, accommodating and timely with communication. She sent several photos of my dog while he was staying with her. Cannot thank you enough for caring for my dog, I know he was in good hands.”


“Willow had a great weekend with Megan! She came home happy and tired. Megan was great at communication, very quick at responding and sending photos. She also handled all of Willows quirks well!”


“Charlotte had my 1.5 yr old Porty for 4 nights. Went for multiple walks per day , sent pics of him having fun, and communicated thru out. If you’re looking for a home away from home for your pup, I highly recommend Charlotte., one of the sweetest and nicest humans I’ve ever met.”


About: I have taken care of dogs of all kinds for many years and have owned two dogs myself. I no longer have any pets, but would love to watch yours! I work from home. I love to go on walks, runs, & hikes. I work from home, but can be flexible with my working hours to accommodate your dogs needs! I do work a full time 9-5 M-F job, so would just need to ensure your dog is okay hanging out with me while I work. I have a perfect home for pets with a large fenced yard. It’s a one story house with carpet & hardwood. Happy to put the crate anywhere in the house.

“Melanie took excellent care of my pup, Chai. She was extremely communicative, and very thoughtful in her care for Chai who is recovering from a recent surgery. I would recommend her without any reservations.”


“Colleen and her sweet family were fantastic. It was the first time I had anyone watch my puppy and I felt so comfortable with Colleen looking out for her. She kept me updated with pictures the whole time. Will absolutely let my pup stay with her again.”


About: Had so many dogs that one bitted me :D Had few of them when I was little, now I'm far from home so gonna buy one soon. I’ve worked with senior pets requiring special medication schedules, as well as energetic puppies needing plenty of exercise and attention. My approach combines patience, empathy, and attentiveness to each pet’s unique needs, ensuring a trusting and joyful experience. Currently, I work full-time with flexible hours and have the ability to spend up to 5 hours per day with pets during weekdays, mostly after 7 p.m. I am available for longer visits and overnight stays, making sure your pet receives consistent companionship. I'm available wednesday - sunday. Think I'm gonna sleep with them, I'm too simple and I don't like to separate from mine sometimes so .. understand me please! Fenced yard in Basalt, but like to hike and go out so they're gonna be in good form do not worry haha just kidding. Have yard and big park near the house


“My 1 1/2-year-old lab had had a great time staying with Kirsten. He almost didn't want to leave when I came to pick him up. She was very accommodating with my drop off and pick up schedule. I would use her again next time I'm out of town.”


“Suzanne was great! She answered prior to our drop off in a timely manner and during Katy's stay with her. We got daily updates with pics which was great. We will definitely use her again if we have a need in the area.”


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.

“Jacqueline & her family were amazing! They were accommodating with our drop off/pick up logistics and so easy to work with. Our pup Camper was spoiled with Jacqueline and we would recommend her to anyone in Aspen looking for care for their animal. Trustworthy, great communication and will treat your dog like her own!”


About: I am a runner and I can take your dog for a walk or a run if you like. I grew up with dogs and cats and enjoy their company and will take care of them as if they are my own. I am self employed and can work my schedule around the needs of your pet(s). I am a runner and so can also take a dog for a run or a walk if preferred. Small dogs and cats can come to my home - it will be nice to have them stay. Larger dogs would have to be in their own home as I live in a tiny home.

“Lu and his family were absolutely fantastic. We were in Colorado visiting family and needed a Rover to look after our pups while we were there. I was a bit nervous leaving them with someone they hadn’t interacted with before, but I was quickly set at ease with the way Lu welcomed them into their home. I got tons of pictures and the dogs were happy as clams. I would recommend him highly for anyone looking for a sitter that treats your pets as his own. Thank you so much Lu!”


“As soon as we met Teresa we realized our dog Oreo is in a great hands. She is happy, caring person , very energetic! She invited us inside the house and everything looked super clean which I love! When we left she sent us Oreo ‘s pictures. She even made a special bed for her. And when we came to pick up Oreo. She was excited, happy and playful , so I could guess she really enjoyed to stay at Teresa’s place! Thank you We will recommend you and use your services again when we are back to Colorado ???”
