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.

“Michelle was awesome! She really came through in a bind. I had to work a double and the sitter I had originally booked never confirmed our appointment, so I contacted Michelle last minute and she accepted. She came off very sweet and professional. She sent me some pictures of Enzo and he looked like he had a good time. Thank you so much Michelle! Enzo and I will definitely love to use your services again in the future.”

About: Hi, my name is Marissa. I’m from Northern California. My schedule doesn’t allow me to fully take care of a pet, so I decided it’s time to take care of others’ pets. I’ve grown up with Labrador Retrievers. I’ve mostly been trusted to take care of medium to larger sized dogs, as I’ve experienced them more. This is the first time in my life where I’m not taking care of a pet. It’s very different. I constantly ask my parents to send me pics of our dogs. I miss them! Their names are Callie (7 yrs) and Winston (4 yrs). I have been in and out of the RFV for 3 years. I love every season to which this area has to offer. I enjoy skiing, hiking, and reading. I just miss having dogs in my life! I am more available on the weekends than during the week! I think it’s very important to be around animals! I am unable to care for a pet in my own home, but I am available to commute to a client’s home. I am also willing to find nearby parks and/or designated walking areas if need be.

“Takes great care of our pups thank you savanna!”

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.

About: Hi there! I grew up in a big family with five siblings and a house full of pets so caring for animals has been second nature to me for as long as I can remember. From energetic pups to shy cats, I’ve seen it all and know how to give each pet the unique attention they deserve. I absolutely love being outdoors, and your pup will never miss a chance to explore and stretch their legs with me! I’m currently on summer break from school and have extra time on my hands and what better way to spend it than caring for some adorable dogs? I’d love to fill my days with walks and playtime anyday! I’ve walked many dogs in my life and understand the importance of careful interactions with other dogs or even humans and simple dog walking etiquette

“Karissa was so awesome to jump in and help walk my doggo while I was away on business. Having her pitch in really helped my husband who was home but has his own busy schedule, and put my mind at ease that Gunner would get double the attention and love and walks while I was away. Thank you Karissa!”

“Megan has been prompt, professional and reliable. Great communication. Megan just started walking my dog this week, but she and "Nellie" are already great buddy's. It is reassuring to me that my dog is being exercised and cared on days when I do not have the time. We are looking forward to using Megan lots in the future.”

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs and years of caring for a variety of breeds since moving to the valley. I’m skilled at handling multiple dogs at once, including those with different temperaments, ensuring each one receives the care and attention they need. I have a very flexible schedule and I am able to travel to provide my services. With some notice I can be available for anything you need! I have one gray tabby cat who is a little timid with dogs at first but warms up quickly and has made friends with several dogs in the past. We are able to separate her in another room if needed. She is not great with other cats but as stated before we can separate if and when needed to ensure comfort and safety for everyone involved! I professionally care for your home property and pets, handling tasks like plant care, mail collection, bird feeders, snow clearing, feeding and medications if necessary, As well as any other duties during your absence. With experience overseeing properties for extended periods, I ensure all needs are met with direct and frequent communication, so you can have peace of mind knowing your home and your pets are in trusted hands!

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.

“Such wonderful & caring sitters! Destiny and her partner, Cal, watched our old Golden and gave her so much love and attention. They sent us great pics and updates while we were gone. On the last day of our trip a wildfire broke out up near our house. They saw an alert about it on their phone and didn't hesitate to go grab her and take her home with them when they couldn't get ahold of us. I'm so thankful for their dedication.”

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 :)

“Kailey has been a fantastic dog walker and house sitter! She has exhibited true concern for my animals (Golden Retriever and Maine Coon), and has gone above and beyond to provide wonderful care. She takes Milo on lots of great hikes, making those days some of the best in his life! She is also an incredibly nice person with whom to interact. I highly recommend her and will continue to request her when she is available!”

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. One day I dream of opening my own dog daycare. Family, friends have always gone to me for dog sitting, walking and I find great joy in spending my day with dogs. I just moved to Colorado and not sure what I want to do with my career. So I am available during typical work hours, not afraid of early morning. Pet care does not feel like work to me so I will always make time I have an extremely sweet, loving German Shepherd if your dog wants a buddy to hang with. I also am a long distance runner who will take your dog any distance you want. For drop ins I will spend quality time and give quality attention to your dog. If you go with me I promise your dog will thank you

“Elise helped us out today when our regular walker canceled at the last moment and she did an excellent job with my senior dog Mandy. Thank you Elise!”
