House Sitting in Blanchard

“Steph was awesome and I felt very comfortable with her staying in my home overnight with my pets. Both of My pets are seniors and Steph text me if she had any concerns. Accompanied these with pictures. I’ll ask for her Again.”

About: I’m a student at Oxford University with a love for dogs (I have three of my own). I have experience pet sitting pups of all sizes and personalities, as well as animal rescue care for abused dogs from puppy mills (via the Humane Society of the United States). Each pet is different, so I tailor my services to their individual needs—whether it be lazily lounging with belly scratches, long runs, or leisurely walks, I’ll be sure to meet your dog’s specific needs. Aside from standard care tasks, I can accommodate various other requests free of charge. Examples include: - Taking your dog on long runs in case (s)he has high exercise demands - Basic training (e.g. come, sit, stay, heel, shake, roll over, sit pretty, etc.) - Play dates for larger dogs with social needs (I have a sweet, friendly 80lb Bernese) - Outing to requested walk locations for novel smells or dog park trips If you would like a special service, please communicate with me ahead of time so I can come prepared (i.e. bringing training treats that accommodate your dog’s dietary restrictions, a special doggy water bottle to keep your puppy hydrated during intense exercise, etc.). I look forward to getting to know your pup, and providing him/her with the love they deserve! I’m home from Oxford for summer break with a completely free schedule till I leave in October — that means I’m available for your pup 24/7. I am doing this as a passion project; I love dogs, and this is how I wish to spend my summer! Your dog will be my top priority. From my background of caring for abused animals, I understand how important trust is for dogs, especially when interacting with new people. In most cases, I aim for the pet care environment to be as close as possible to your pet’s ordinary life, since that is often vital to preventing stress for your dog. If your dog is shy or anxious (like my two rescue dogs), I’ll aim to give them space at first and gradually build trust, but if you have an energetic and outgoing dog, I am sure we will connect right away. However, I recognize that some pets may do better in other circumstances (e.g. if your dog needs to be crated at certain times of day). I am more than happy to honor whatever requests you have — just let me know what is best for your dog, and I’ll act accordingly!

“She’s a great person to have around your pets. She has a sweet spirit & did amazing with my little guy. She took care of him and his needs. I highly recommend!!!”

“Andria was absolutely amazing with my English Bulldog, Gunnar! From the moment I met her, I knew he was in great hands. She was attentive, professional, and most importantly, she treated Gunnar like her own. Bulldogs can be a bit high-maintenance, but Andria was more than up for the challenge. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Gunnar came back happy, healthy, and relaxed, which tells me he had a fantastic time. I highly recommend Andria for anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and loving pet sitter. I will definitely be booking her again!”

About: I’ve always been the kid in my family who was the first to walk the dogs or sit for the dogs. I have taken care of every kind of dog from the puppy at 5 pounds to the adults at 120+ pounds, dogs are everyone’s happy place and I’m here to keep them healthy and be your furry companion for life! I’m currently a full time welder at an underground drill bit manufacturing company. I’m always available after 5pm on weekdays for dog walking and I will always be available for dog sitting on the weekends. Recently graduated class of 2024 and I’m just looking to meet new furry friends! I’m very good with instructions you may have for me when taking care of your furry friend always making sure to provide the best service for you and your family wether it is dog sitting or dog walking!

About: I'm an animal lover at heart and have had many pets throughout my life. I house sit and watch pets for family fairly often. Along with personal experience, I've also worked in a doggy daycare for about 3 years where I would play with, clean up after, and board dogs of all breeds and sizes. I love doing enrichment activities to stimulate the pets mind and make them work for their treats with puzzles toys/ activities and simple tricks. I am free weekdays after 11am and usually completely free on the weekends, so I have plenty of time to spend taking care of your fur babies! I can stop by for potty breaks, take the pets for walks, housesit, or even just stop by to give some cuddles for a little while. If there are any specific requests I will try my best to make them happen.

About: I have dog sat for 20 years, with a small but loyal client base. I am pursuing my LPN currently and looking to add to that base to help make ends meet. I love to spoil the babies I watch and my dogs love the company. Let me treat your fur baby like family. I am in school for 6 hours a day and home all weekend. Weekends I go to the dog park with my babies and during the week we have a nice walk in the evening. I have a fenced yard that is padlocked, and a living room that is gated to prevent unauthorized canine visits to the kitchen when not home. I let my visitors sleep in bed with me and am a big believer in puppy snuggles. All dogs I watch also receive probiotics to prevent stress induced gastrointestinal issues from a new environment.

“Rylee is amazing! She was so good with our two dogs and she took great care of our house. She is very dependable! I would definitely ask her to house sit and dog sit again!!!”

“Lillie did a wonderful job with our fur babies over Thanksgiving. 💙 Great with updates and pictures and I could see the live and concern she had (especially with our very senior dog). Highly recommend.”

Jennifer E.

“I can’t say enough great things about Brittnie! She was on time each day and she spent at least 2 hours with each visit. I have a dog who has some trust issues and when I can home and she stoped by she greeted her like they were best friends. I will definitely be using Brittnie in the future. I can’t thank you enough.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a young child! I have fostered many animals including litters of puppies, under-socialized dogs, special needs, and seniors. I pride myself in making sure my animals are living their best life! I am generally available all the time for boarding! We have farm animals too, so we don’t get away much. I am available every day for boarding! I am a teacher so I work school hours and I’m off during school breaks! Our house has a fenced yard for the dogs to potty and play in. We also have some kiddie pools to cool them off and play in during the summer. We have 3 dogs to keep the other fur babies company!

“Zoey did a great job!! I was nervous about leaving my dogs over the 4th of July weekend but Zoey made sure they felt safe, and were dog tired by the time the fireworks rolled around that they weren’t scared! I would definitely book again next time they’re in town!!”

About: I am a certified veterinary assistant and will be continuing my education. I have experience with all different kinds of animals, inside and outside. No matter if your animal needs lots of outside time, inside time, comfort, or playing time, I can provide that. I have lots of availability, dog sitting is my only job at the moment. I do have soccer trainings but I am very flexible and can work around what the animal needs. My care for the animal depends on what the animal needs and what the owner asks for me to do, I can provide whatever care the animal needs and wants.

“She did great. My Dog hasn’t been left a lot so it’s not an easy task. I definitely would use her again and would highly recommend her.”

Michael D.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was two years old, my first coming from a wish mailed to Santa. I currently have one large dog, Casper. We adopted Casper as a puppy, and I’ve helped raise him into adulthood. From walking to bathing, I have experience with most responsibilities when it comes to pet care. I have cared for both cats and dogs before, being someone family and friends can rely on. I have love for all animals, and would be privileged to share that love with your pet(s)! I am living in Oklahoma until mid-August before starting grad school out-of-state, so I’m free practically any time, any day. I need at least two days in advance for pet-sitting or drop-ins. I’m very respectful of clients’ rules and requests. I am a believer in positive reinforcement: rewarding pets for good actions instead of punishing bad ones. On walks, I like to let the pet take the lead to avoid unnecessary pulling.

“Ava is not just incredible she’s a genius when it comes to taking care of the babies. She’s so smart and so caring and just simply amazing. Her value is beyond words and you cannot ask for a better person to care for your babies.”

Jonathan S.

About: I have dog sat for my neighbor several times and dog walked for a client here in Boulder. I also grew up with a Jack Russel Terrier, lots of energy, not very cuddly, so I’m used to animals that need their space. I am a student at CU Boulder, so during the School year I can fit in some walks and boarding when I’m not busy with classes. During the summer I may be working a part time job, which I will have to work around. I tend to be freer on the weekends, especially during the school year. I will be respectful of my clients property and privacy. I will only go to the clients house, not vice versa. My living arrangements do not accommodate pet sitting at my house.

About: With over 5 years of hands-on veterinary experience, I offer expert-level pet care you can trust. From playful pups to senior pets with special needs, I provide compassionate, knowledgeable care tailored to each animal’s unique personality and health. Whether it's medication administration, gentle handling, or simply lots of love and attention, your pet is in skilled, caring hands. Working two full days and one half day at a veterinary clinic gives me the perfect balance—plenty of time during the week to offer reliable, attentive pet care, while staying closely connected to animal health and well-being. It’s a win-win: I get to do what I love both at the clinic and with your pets! When caring for a pet in their home, I stick closely to their routine—meals, walks, meds, playtime—so they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. I bring a calm, caring presence, and a few extra belly rubs never hurt either!

“Tina was great! We got so many updates and pictures while away. So grateful for her flexibility on short notice and her knowledge about dogs. Will definitely book her again in the future!”
