House Sitting in Burns

“Melissa takes extra special care of our 11+ year old dog Kana. He’s peculiar and untrusting and by the end of her first day she sent me a pictures of him loving life! I would highly recommend Melissa. She’s attentive, tidy and super reliable.”

About: I’ve been caring for fur babies since I graduated high school, giving both puppies and senior dogs the special attention they need. I love animals of every shape and size and treat them like my own—because let’s be honest, they run the household anyway. Your pet will get a happy, stress-free stay with plenty of love, snuggles, and top-tier spoiling. I work a full-time job during the day, but I’m available for drop-ins and visits in the late afternoons and evenings. I’m also free all day on Sundays, as well as one select weekday depending on my schedule. If you communicate your needs ahead of time, I’ll always do my best to make it happen. Your fur baby’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I come to your home so your pet can stay in their favorite place, surrounded by familiar smells and routines. I follow your instructions carefully and keep your home secure, tidy, and respected. You’ll always get clear updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Kat, watched our cat for two weeks while we were on a trip. She took great care of him and sent us messages about how he was doing while we were away. She left the house in excellent shape after staying there for the duration. She is easy to work with and responds quickly. Would highly recommend.”

About: Years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I provide dependable in-home care, following your pet’s routine for comfort, safety, and happiness. I work full-time (9–5) and from home one day a week, which gives me flexibility. With my schedule I'm able to accomodate morning and evening walks, feedings, and playtime in the evenings (and lunch time when I WFH). My weekends are free, letting me spend more quality time with pets while owners are away. I care for pets in their own home, so they stay comfortable and relaxed in a familiar setting. I follow your care instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and always ensure your home is respected and secure. Pets get plenty of love, attention, and supervision every visit.

About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats throughout my life. I have 2 dogs myself, a bulldog and Rhodesian ridgeback. I miss my dogs from home and would love to share my love for animals. I have dealt with my breeds and different personalities! I am experienced with puppies to old dogs. I am currently home for the summer and am pretty available. I am working in vail but the shifts are usually 4-5 hours. Other than when I am at work I can be with your dog! I can easily take dogs on walks, care for them in your home, and have a car for taking them wherever they need to go!

“Andie was absolutely amazing with both of our dogs while we were away for more than a week. She took excellent care of them and consistently shared videos from their walks and time spent at home, which gave us great peace of mind. Andie also watered our plants, going above and beyond what we expected. We felt completely comfortable and calm knowing that she was spending quality time with our doggies and paying close attention to all the little details that matter to us. We would highly recommend Andie to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter.”

About: Lifelong dog lover, owner of Shih Tzus, and excited by every dog I meet. I spent five years teaching elementary school, so patience, reliability, and calm care come naturally. I treat every pet like family. I work full time in Snowmass Monday through Friday for eight hours a day, with flexible lunch breaks and timing control over my schedule and days off. I’m fully available on weekends and happily spend my free time before and after work with your pet, ensuring consistent care, attention, and companionship. I treat every pet like family, keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable in my care or in their home. I love daily walks, healthy treats, plenty of belly rubs, and making sure they feel secure and loved at all times. I pay close attention to routines, dietary needs, and comfort, and I always respect the home environment while providing attentive, trustworthy care.

About: I have over 30 years experience raising, training, fostering, foster-failing and generally loving and caring for dogs. I work from home so will be with your pet most of the time and I love to go for long walks and runs with them. I am very active (walk, run, hike...) and have a large fenced in yard and a dog park nearby to keep your pup busy and well-exercised. Most of my clients are repeat customers as they find my services truly a "home away from home" for their fur-baby. Although I am new to Rover I have several references available outside of Rover - feel fee to request any you may like to see. I work from home so I am able to let dogs out every few hours in our fenced yard. Also walk at least an hour a day. Dogs in my home are treated as (and sometimes better 😉) than humans. Run of the house and the fenced yard. Lots of love and snuggles. Lots of walks/hikes/fetch/etc.

About: I genuinely love animals. I grew up with two dogs and a cat. I’ve watched over other family dogs and cats for weeks and even months at a time. I work at most 6 hour shifts per day and 4 days per week so I have plenty of free time for play, walking and cuddles. I currently live with one pup who I walk daily before work and we love going on hikes or to the lake on a nice day

About: Patient and loving pet sitter with 6+ years of experience. Going out for stress relieving walks around the town, up trails, and hikes. Providing great care while having fun adventures! I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. I will make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while you’re away. Your pet will receive lots of love, attention, and supervision while in my care. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and safe.

About: I’ve had hands on experience caring for animals my entire life. I grew up in a household with both dogs and cats, so I’m very comfortable with daily routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and general care. I’ve also helped care for chickens for a couple of years, which gave me additional experience with maintaining consistent schedules and attention to detail. Over the years, I’ve regularly helped friends, family, and neighbors with their pets. Whether that’s walking dogs, checking in on them while owners are away, or making sure they get the attention and exercise they need. I’m confident handling different energy levels and personalities, from more relaxed pets to those that need extra activity and engagement. I always prioritize safety, follow owner instructions closely, and make sure pets stay on their normal routines, including proper feeding (no people food unless specifically approved). My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away. My schedule is very flexible right now, and I’m available most days throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. With a lighter work schedule during the off-season from skiing, I have plenty of time to give pets the attention, exercise, and consistency they need. I enjoy staying active, so I’m always happy to take dogs out for walks, longer outings, or just spend quality time with them during the day. I’m also available for last-minute bookings and can adapt to your pet’s routine. I’m looking forward to spending my days with some furry companions and making sure they’re well cared for while you’re away. I prioritize safety, consistency, and making pets feel comfortable in their environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any specific rules you have in place. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure, and I keep a close eye on pets during walks and outdoor time. I’m respectful of your home and aim to keep everything clean and just as you left it. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe and doing well. If caring for pets in my home, I make sure the environment is clean, calm, and pet-safe, with plenty of space for them to relax. I supervise interactions, stick to your pet’s routine, and ensure they get the right balance of activity, rest, and attention. Above all, I treat every pet like my own while maintaining the structure and boundaries that keep them safe and healthy.

About: I have grown up with always having animals around. I have lived on multiple farms, and have volunteered with several animal sanctuaries, including one for wildlife in Costa Rica. I also have spent the last five years fostering animals with the Humane society as I lived in Asheville and completed my schooling. Through this experience, I have worked with neonatal newborns, pregnant and nursing mothers, potty training- ages, senior pets, and those who take medication. As I create this account, I am traveling and petsitting on the road. My schedule is very flexible because of this, and so I am open to long or short stays. Every animal is unique, and I love to get to know their personalities and preferences! It is my goal to ensure that animal and animal parent both are happy and comfortable.

“Ursula took great care of our dogs. Good communication. It was much easier to be away when they are in such good hands. Thank you!”

I am able cook for your companion(s) if they have a special diet and I am an attentive person when it comes to animals who need special attention or care.

Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or drop-in visits, I plan my entire schedule around your pet’s needs to ensure they get consistent, attentive, and loving care every time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat every animal like family. I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. Whether that means sticking to their specific feeding schedule, giving them space to relax, or offering lots of playtime and snuggles. I maintain a calm, clean environment, pay close attention to behavior or mood changes, and communicate regularly with pet parents to ensure peace of mind. I’m happy to accommodate special needs, medications, or quirks. Whatever helps your pet feel happiest and most at home.
