“Coretta was very communicative and we appreciated the highly detailed snapshots of how the day went. She attached lots of photos as well and it was nice to see our cats excited to play her. I would definitely book Coretta again in the future!”

About: Hi Rover! My name is Alex. I have been a pet owner since I could walk; dogs, cats, fish, birds, gerbils, even rats! I absolutely love animals and I am sure I can give your pet the love they require while you are away. I am the fur mommy of two adorable dogs Stasi (we say it like Stacy) and Sāj (pronounced Sage). They love other dogs almost more than they love me. They have fur friends of all ages, shapes and sizes. So big or small, they can adapt and be a fun friend to play/cuddle with. I do work a full time job, however, I have flexibility in my day for walks, playtime, feeding, etc. I can provide plenty of daily updates and pictures. For new clients, I offer a doggie report card and Polaroid photo to ensure your pet was taken care of with the same love you give. If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to ask. I look forward to meeting you and your dog! I have a hybrid schedule of work from home and office time, with flexibility to ensure your pet, like mine, are not left alone for extended periods of time throughout the day. I have a home with huge fenced yard to roam and play. I live within walking distance to regular parks and don’t mind taking a trip to the dog parks for socializing and exercise.

“Jayden is the best, so kind and attentive and thoughtful! We love seeing all the cute pictures they take, and our two picky cats love Jayden’s care and company.”

“Shakira is very personable and quick-witted. My normally reserved cat came right to her which was a great sign and definitely put me at ease that he was in the care of the right person. I look forward to working with her in the future and highly recommend her service.”

About: I have experience with dogs with anxiety who use medication, needy/clingy dogs, and dogs with disabilities. I am extremely thorough and patient in case something goes wrong with them and I maintain a calm demeanor at all times. When it comes to instructions, please provide a brief, detailed description of your pet's daily routine and I'll follow it to the letter. I'm currently a graduate student at CSU; summers are a slow period for me. I am more than willing to babysit pets for as many nights, walks, feeding times as needed. During school time I will do walks, feeding visits and the occasional overnight weekend stay. I am committed to your pet's comfort level and will adapt to their schedule to the best of my ability. I will spoil them rotten because I absolutely love all dogs and cats of all shapes and mannerisms. Even if they hate me. If I am confused about anything regarding your pet's behavior, such as licking paws, over-grooming, an increase in urination, I will let you know about it as soon as I see it. I also LOVE talking to the pets so I will have full-on conversations with them. I'm especially good with repeat visits so if you are interested in having a one-time sitter for the next few years, I'm MORE than willing to take up that responsibility. Familiarity is very important with pets and as mentioned before, I am focused on the pet's comfort.

About: I grew up with dogs - my Afghan, Kesha, was my first best friend and how I learned to braid (lol). I've cared for Rottweilers, Pit Bulls, Cockers, and Min Pins. I've dog-sat and cat-sat for family and neighbors for years, and now my daughters and I are ready to open our peaceful home and fenced yard to pets needing love while their people are away. Our house has a crate, a basement space, and plenty of tail-wagging energy. Dogs aren't just welcome here, they're remembered forever. I'm currently home during the day with a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of time, space, and love to offer pets who need calm, consistent care while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my routine and brings so much joy into our home. I approach every client's home with the same respect. I would want someone to have in mine. I've worked in private homes as a section 8 inspector, a home care aide, and an insurance rep, so I'm comfortable operating professionally in someone else's space. I follow all house rules, keep things clean, and ensure pets feel safe and at ease while you're away. We live in a pet-friendly neighborhood. My daughters and I often take walks around the neighborhood, so any pet we care for will get the benefit of fresh air, familiar sights, and friendly energy. We have a peaceful, fenced yard, a crate if needed, and a quiet, unoccupied basement space for rest or separation when appropriate. I'm very aware of animal behavior, neighbor pets, and how to make pets feel safe and seen. This is a calm, kid-friendly, and pet-loving home.

About: I’ve had 3 sweet and energetic dogs in various sizes, 3 hamsters, I love cats, and I get along well with most other animals too! I am currently unemployed seeking a fun and active hobby that fulfills my day. I recently lost my job and I’d love to make a shift towards something that genuinely makes me happy. I like inquire about the routines already in place for your everyone’s pets. Learning that, their energy levels and preferred behaviors help me to establish a bond. I feel it’s important to keep their natural rhythm while letting them get out their energy out to form a good connection.

About: My wife and I love dogs and own 2 small shitzu/bichon ourselves. Our house is ideal because we have a large fenced yard and are near a park. If there is inclement weather, we also have a large basement. Since we no longer have young children in the home, dogs provide us with joy and love. We walk our own dogs twice a day and play with them frequently. Since I work from home, the dogs are not left alone often or for long periods of time.

About: Hi my name is Tarah I love dog all breads and ages. I work from home with short hours so I am always available. I have 2 puppies as well if my own. Your dog will have friends to play with I do request a meet and greet first for the safety of the dog. Please feel free to reach out. I work from home with short hours I have plenty of time to card for the dogs needs and wants. I have 2 of my own dogs to care for. I have 2 friendly fur babies to keep your babies company. I go to the dog park and take them in walks in the neighborhood.
