“I was so happy with Lacey as our cat sitter! She sent the sweetest messages about Juno, she was totally reliable, and I can tell she went above and beyond. We will definitely book her again next time Juno needs some drop ins.”

“Sounds like everything went very well with Sarah Mei and my dog. She's very enthusiastic and affectionate with my dog. I hope to have her come again very soon.”

“Tess has been cat sitting for us for years- first for our elderly cat, and now for our kitten- and she is great. Easy to communicate with, very caring and responsive with our kitties. Makes me feel much better about going away.”


“Jana is the absolute best! She took such good care of our cat. We appreciate how happy she kept him over the holidays - we could tell he felt safe and comfortable with her and that put us at ease leaving him for the first time ever. She sent wonderful photos every day that made our entire day whenever we got them. We are so grateful to Jana! ☺️”


About: Current graduate student looking to destress and feel the love from your pet best friend! Safety is always my number one priority, but having fun is a close second. Where else to enjoy dogs and nature than in the beautiful Boulder Colorado? I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats (2 loving cats back home) for as long as I can remember. Being patient, I also enjoy reinforcing commands and tricks! I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! :) I go to school part-time and Mondays and Fridays I have completely off! I am also available before my classes if you want a morning appointment. Safety is always my number one priority. You can trust that your fur friend will have my total attention at all times. I will always use harnesses and leashes no matter where we adventure to.
“Isabella was an amazing cat sitter. She kept in contact with updates and many awesome photos each visit. She followed all instructions I wrote, my cat also really enjoyed Isabella’s company. I look forward to hiring her again when I travel next.”

“Lynn always does such a great job checking in on our cats. Always sends pictures and lets me know about the small things I may want to know about while I’m away (behavioral tendencies of the cats, etc.). Thank you Lynn for caring about our pets as much as we do!”

“Carly was so sweet!! She visited a few days before I left to meet my cat and learn the ropes. She stopped by every day right on time and was quick to send updates. I definitely plan on booking her services again!”

“Brian took great care of our cat Kai while we were out of town. We can tell Kai was well looked after in Brian’s hands. Brian gave us updates as we had requested, and sent the cutest photos. Kai seemed very comfortable with Brian, and he offered lots of cuddles and play time. He helped us bring in some packages as well. Reliable, responsible, communicative- we recommend!”

About: I have been working with animals since I was a kid. The animals liked me because I was gentle and calm, and I loved figuring out how to speak their language. I started walking and caring for dogs in 2012, and have worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I just completed my Cat and Dog First Aid training through the American Red Cross. I'd love the chance to get to know and care for your pet! I have a flexible weekly schedule and am available for local visits. I deliberately set my service area small so that I can keep my travel time to a minimum and try to be more available for last-minute requests! I have the utmost respect for your home and your pet. I will be sure to follow any instructions and note any safety concerns, like closing or locking gates or doors.
“Kate was fantastic! I had zero worries during my trip. Her communication was clear and consistent, and she went above and beyond taking care of my cat. Highly recommend!”

About: I have trained several puppies in addition to raising a dog throughout my entire life at home. In addition, I have house sat for several houses with animals of all kinds and ages, as well as walking dogs to whatever is requested. I work part time, giving me significant time for pet care! I have a very flexible schedule and am available neatly at the drop of a hat. I have a very sweet and loving 4 year old golden, my parents, sister, and I live together in a two story house with a large gated backyard. I prioritize cleanliness and safety when invited to clients houses, providing service that is consistently above and beyond the needs of the clients and their furry friends!
About: I've hardly gone without animals in my life. Whether dogs, cats, birds, rodents or reptiles, I have a variety of pet care experience. From working professionally in a doggy daycare as a dog handler, to watching pets for friends and family, or caring for my own beloved fur babies. I'm familiar with dogs big and small and have experience from puppies all the way senior animal care. You set expectations for what you're looking for and I'm happy to take care of your animals just as you do, following your routine, training, and boundaries. I am also able to run with your dog or take them for a gentle walk depending on their needs. I want you to feel confident that your pets will be cared for with the same love and compassion you provide. I work full-time remotely and have flexibility in my day to care for your pets! I will be leaving for the summer in May so I will be unavailable for repeat work during the summer months. I don't offer pet sitting in my own home at this time but can absolutely pet sit in your home if desired. I'm happy to do any house sitting tasks needed and am very respectful towards your pets and your home.
“Felicia was so great! She left really detailed reports everyday, along with lots of photos for us to see! She was also willing to keep an eye on our heater and other things around the apartment while we are out of town. We will definitely be contacting her to watch our cat in the future!!”


About: I have been a dedicated animal caretaker since my childhood beginning with my first pet, Spot a labrador retriever. Today I combine that lifelong passion with professional discipline as a current Denver Zoo volunteer and a recent graduate in Evolutionary Biology and Ecology. My background allows me to provide expert care for pets of all breed and life stages, from high-energy puppies to seniors with specific needs. I am committed to maintaining a safe, enriched, and reliable experience for your pets, applying the same high standards of well-being I use at the zoo to your own home. Pet care for me fits well within my schedule as my shifts at the zoo are flexible. This allows me to dedicate time to your pets for long walks, check-ins, or attentive house sitting. I'm available to ensure your pet maintains their consistent feedings, exercise schedule, or other needs. As a volunteer at the zoo and an EBIO graduate, I follow professional and strict safety protocols in my home and yours. I have a large condo allowing some space for your pet to roam, but I am very active with the outdoors thus fulfilling enrichment to hyper-active pets. I am habituated to monitor animal behavior closely, double-checking harnesses and leashes whenever going on walks, and ensuring a safe environment that meets high standards of well-being.

Jana is the absolute best! She took such good care of our cat. We appreciate how happy she kept him over the holidays - we could tell he felt safe and comfortable with her and that put us at ease leaving him for the first time ever. She sent wonderful photos every day that made our entire day whenever we got them. We are so grateful to Jana! ☺️

We absolutely love Felipe! We had a last-minute trip come up and he booked with us immediately, no hesitation. He is always incredibly responsive and reliable, which gives us so much peace of mind when we’re out of town. Our cats are excited to see him every time, which says everything about the care and attention he gives them. He truly does the best job, and we couldn’t recommend him more highly.

She was so so so amazing! Can't recommend enough. She was so thorough and had amazing clear communication and it seriously made me feel so much better leaving my baby! My cat absolutely LOVED her and she sent so many photos and a whole detailed note every visit. The best! Definitely will be using her again!!!

We had an excellent experience with Eme. They were punctual, reliable, and communicated clearly throughout our time away. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos, and they always asked thoughtful questions whenever something was unclear. Our dog was taken on long hikes every day, which made a huge difference, and both our dog and cat were clearly happy, relaxed, and well cared for when we returned. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our pets were in such good hands.
