Dog Sitting in Berthoud

“Jessica dropped in to check on our pups at the times we requested and sent us photos of our pups so we knew they were taken care of and had some playtime. She was communicative and followed all instructions. We’ll use her again for sure!”

“Amazing and so sweet and encouraging for our sweet dog. We would absolutely love to have Angel come back to take care of Lana again.”

About: Hi! I'm an experienced pet sitter, dog walker, and animal lover based in Northern Colorado. I've been caring for animals for most of my life and have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. Over the past year, I've completed numerous pet sitting and dog walking jobs through Rover and privately, caring for everything from energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and attention. In addition to pet sitting, I volunteer with NoCo Humane in the Behavior and Enrichment Department, where I work directly with both dogs and cats. This experience has helped me become comfortable reading animal body language, building trust with shy pets, and supporting animals with different temperaments and needs. I currently have a rescued named Millie, and I have firsthand experience caring for senior dogs, administering medications, monitoring health concerns, and recognizing when veterinary care may be needed. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. When caring for your pets, I aim to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. Whether that means walks, playtime, enrichment activities, cuddle sessions, medication administration, or simply providing companionship, I'm happy to tailor my care to your pet's individual needs. I have a flexible schedule and can often accommodate short-notice requests. For house sitting, I can stay overnight and provide regular potty breaks, exercise, meals, medications, and plenty of attention. I'm always happy to discuss your pet's specific needs during our meet and greet. I believe communication is one of the most important parts of pet care, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and prompt responses throughout your booking. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I have a lot of flexibility with short notice. Throughout the day I can let your dog out at least every 4 hours, which can include walks. I believe pets are happiest when they can maintain their normal routine, so my goal is always to provide care that feels familiar, safe, and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their established schedule for meals, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and bedtime. I take the time to learn each pet's personality, preferences, and any special needs so I can provide individualized care. I pay close attention to behavior and health, and I will communicate promptly if I notice anything unusual. During walks and outdoor time, safety is my top priority. I use secure leash-handling practices, avoid unsafe situations, and make sure pets have appropriate exercise and enrichment based on their age, energy level, and comfort. I also understand that being away from their owners can be stressful for some pets, so I provide plenty of companionship, affection, and patience while respecting each animal's boundaries. You can expect regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect that I would want for my own.

“We appreciated the daily updates and pictures. Thank you Amanda!”

“AJ is amazing! AJ goes above and beyond when watching our dogs. We love having her watch Madie and Lucy. Know your pets will be in great hands with AJ watching them.”

Aleria R.

“Izzy was great - communicative and reliable, everything went really smoothly! I know our kitties were in great hands. I will 100% rebook with Izzy and would recommend her to anyone!”

Alice R.

“I would definitely recommend Holley! She was very comfortable and friendly from the start, and I came home to a happy doggie. I will definitely use her again in the future ❤️”

Jessica W.

“Amy has been so great with our dog - he loves her! Amy has always communicated clearly with me regarding scheduling and how our dog was doing. She has always been more than willing to pick up last-minute check-ins for our dog when my schedule changed. I knew I could rely on her in a pinch. I would highly recommend her to those on Rover looking for a reliable dog sitter.”

Sarah M.

“Sasha is so helpful, and has been so good with both of my dogs one of whom struggles with strangers at times. She takes good care of all my animals and is clearly kind and loving with them. Will definitely continue booking with her!”

About: I have owned pure-bred, rescues, fosters, disabled, and re-homed pets throughout my life (mostly large 40+lbs., but small as well.) I've provided training from puppy age into late-life comfort care. I also have a masters degree in behavior analysis and reinforcement training. I'm currently able to work from home and am only gone a few hours at a time at most. I'm most available in the afternoons (but can make arrangements), but all days of the week work for me with enough notice! Safety is a priority! Behavior Analysis is my field of expertise, which is primarily the use of reinforcement procedures to change behavior (mostly for individuals with autism!) This means I do NOT implement punishment procedures but rather "ignore" the undesired behavior, so rest assured no punishment for potty accidents or unbearably tempting trash bins :) I am also happy to discuss training services, though I am not certified specifically for pet training. I have a very social 6 year old boxer mix named Kizzy who is active, tolerant, great with sharing and loves new friends! I have a 4ft fenced in yard, which backs up to a walking path with other dogs often walking by (so let me know about reactivity issues!) There is also a doggy door from outside into the garage (but not into the house). I trained Kizzy to push a button that says "outside" so I let her out as needed throughout the day and when one goes out, the rest tend to follow so plenty of potty breaks! I prefer to have your babies here in my home as it allows me to work from home. I have multiple dog beds, a basket of toys, an extra large crate if needed, I keep water filled, yummy organic treats. I have lots of walking paths in me neighborhood, a nearby dog park, and kizzy loves swimming in the river so water-loving dogs are welcome! I have cared for higher-needs pets including geriatric, blind, deaf, and even one which was paralyzed and used a wheelchair! I am very comfortable with administering meds, the "cone of shame", assisting with mobility up/down stairs, etc. However, I am also available to stop by your home for potty breaks/medications/water refill/etc. and am available to pick the pups up myself depending on time of day! I am very flexible, just let me know what ya need!

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my extensive experience and deep compassion for animals. Since 2013, I have had the privilege of pet-sitting for dog trainers, friends, and family, which has given me a solid foundation in understanding a variety of breeds and temperaments. I specialize in providing attentive care to both puppies and senior dogs, ensuring they receive the love and attention they need at every stage of life. Additionally, I've taken in strays and nursed them back to health, demonstrating my commitment to the well-being of all animals. When you choose me as your pet sitter, you're choosing someone who loves your pets as much as you do. Currently, I'm taking time away from work as a County Planner, allowing me to dedicate my full attention to caring for your animals 24/7 with enough notice. This means your pets will receive around-the-clock care and companionship, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well-cared-for at all times. I provide comprehensive care for pets in both my home and my clients' homes, tailored to meet each pet's unique needs. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, administering medication, or just providing companionship, I ensure your pets receive the attention and love they deserve. My services are flexible to accommodate your schedule, so feel free to reach out for time and availability—I'm here to make sure your pets are happy and healthy, no matter where they are.

“Zach and Ellie did an amazing job taking care of my cats. One of my cats has a medical condition so they gave him his daily meds. They fed the cats, cleaned the cat litter and all the accidents that my sick cat unfortunately has, played with them and gave them lots of affection. I got daily reports and lots of pictures.”

“Michelle is fantastic! She took such good care of our kitty boy. I can’t begin to tell you the peace of mind I had while traveling knowing he was in good hands. Her picture taking was perfection. Cannot recommend Michelle enough!”

About: I have loved all types of animals since before I can remember. I have had many cats and dogs over my life and absolutely love giving them attention and care! I am available to take care of your fur-babies however their needs require. I'm relatively open during the week and am willing to work within your schedule to help your pets! I am available to take care of your pets in your own home, where they would be most comfortable! Walks, treats, medicine, lots of love, and whatever else is required will be given in spades!

About: Growing up on a ranch, I was surrounded by dogs and cats every day, which gave me lifelong experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities. From training energetic puppies to giving extra patience and attention to senior pets, I learned early what it takes to keep animals safe, happy, and comfortable. Now as a college student, I bring that same level of responsibility, reliability, and genuine love for animals into every pet-sitting job. I understand how important pets are to a family, and I’ll always care for yours like they’re my own. As a college student, I have a very flexible schedule with plenty of free time throughout the day and week. I love using my breaks between classes or study sessions to go on walks, play with pets, and give them the attention they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my routine it’s something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to, not just something I make time for. As a responsible college student, I make safety and trust my top priorities. In your home, I follow your routines exactly, making sure pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment while keeping doors locked and spaces secure. In my own space, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment that’s safe, clean, and welcoming. Whether it’s feeding on schedule, going for walks, administering medications, or giving extra playtime, I take care to carry out every service correctly so both you and your pets can feel at ease.

“Jocelyn went above and beyond for our pups this week! We had a family emergency and booked her the night prior to flying out of town. She was amazing with our puppers and really took her time to show them all the loving while we were gone! Definitely will be keeping in contact for future trips :)”
