About: I work full time as a remote paralegal at a law firm. I own 4 fur babies of my own and know how important it is for them to get the care and attention that they deserve. Don’t stress while you are away at the office, because I am here to give them all the love and attention for you. I work full time as a remote paralegal and therefore am able to stop by your home during the day or night to check on your fur babies for you. I care for your dogs as if they are my own. Walks, play time, daily massages and kisses. If your dog requires certain accommodations I am happy to comply with those specifics as well.

Rayelle did a wonderful job, as always! It's such a relief knowing that while we're out of town, or cats will get to enjoy daily visits from their buddy 😊. We pretty much trust Rayelle like family at this point. She also keeps excellent communication and, most importantly, truly cares about our precious fur babies. If you're reading this review, then look no further, as Rayelle is pretty much the best that you're gonna find here!

I have hired Zoe twice now to take care of my cat. She is always on time, sends her report cards and pictures! My cat is very responsive to her and enjoys her company. I will continue to hire Zoe if she is available. I trust her completely.

We highly recommend Catherine! We are repeat clients, and we again came home to 4 happy and healthy kitties! Our former feral even warmed up to her enough for pets! Catherine also brought in our mail and offered to put our trash cans out while we were gone! We are so fortunate to have Catherine take care of our furbabies!

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats and other animals my entire life. I've worked at a few rescues and I feel like I can work with any pet. I have epilepsy and so I have had a very difficult time keeping any traditional job and so I have a lot of down time right now. I love animals. I remember when I was young, I wanted to be a zoo keeper and I spelled it "zoo kepper". Currently I have two dogs and one cat and they are my heart. My main concern in water. I want to make sure my dogs (or any dog) always has access to water. Everyone has specific ways of caring for their pets. Personally, I like to play with my dogs and make sure they are as happy as can be. My cat just wants love so we give her lots of love.

About: I’ve spent years caring for pets of all ages and personalities—from gentle senior cats to rowdy, playful pups. My background in a pet store taught me animal behavior, nutrition, and how to make every pet feel safe and happy. I’m skilled at giving medications, handling high-energy pets, and offering extra TLC to seniors. With me, your furry friend will get expert care, plenty of love, and endless tail wags! Pet care is part of my everyday life—I share my home with three of my own furry companions, so love, playtime, and feeding schedules are already built into my routine. I’m used to early morning walks, regular grooming, cuddle breaks, and keeping a close eye on health and behavior. Caring for pets isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s simply part of who I am.🐾💕 I make safety my first priority, keeping pets happy and secure. I care for each pet as if they are my own. All animals deserve kindness, respect, and purrr-sonalized care.😌

About: My husband and I are new empty nesters and we love caring for dogs & cats. During Covid we lost our beloved Lulu and would love to help other families while we continue our search for our next full time four legged friend. I work in Canon City Monday through Thursday so I have plenty of time before and after work to drop in and visit with your pet. I am home in Wetmore all day Friday through Sunday to give your dog or cat all the attention they deserve. Plenty of time for cuddles or walks. We have mostly hard surface flooring inside - so pets are welcome everywhere at my house. I have raised dogs and cats from birth to end of life - and I love them all equally. We have 2 cats in our home and our neighbors have very docile friendly dogs if your dog needs to be around other dogs.

Laurel did a wonderful job. I was in a bind with short notice and she promptly responded to me and helped navigate me through the website. Had a nice meet and greet with the pets, who enjoyed her attention. She followed my requests and even added in some thoughtful tasks herself. I was notified when she visited and even got pics of my pup! Most important to me is a pet sitter who is dependable, responsible and communicates. Looking forward to using Laurel in the near future.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was very little with my first beagle Buddy! I often cat sit for family members as well! I would be glad to care for yours! I’m in college and work part time which leaves my schedule relatively flexible. I miss my pets so much I would love to spend time with yours! I am very comfortable around all pets and can care for yours as needed. My dog at home is very friendly. I can bring your dog to my apartment my roommates will love on them too!

About: What sets me apart is my background as a veterinary technician. I’m experienced in administering medications, recognizing early signs of illness or distress, and following detailed care routines. I stay calm in unexpected situations and prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll receive knowledgeable, compassionate care tailored to their needs. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible weekday schedule that allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits, as well as extended care when needed. My routine allows pets frequent check-ins, consistent feeding times, medication administration, and plenty of attention and supervision. I have multiple areas in my home where your pet can stay either with my pets or separately, depending on their comfort level. Pets are welcome inside, and if they prefer or require crate time, I’m happy to provide a crate as well. I prioritize a calm, safe, and flexible environment tailored to each pet’s needs.

About: My first job when I was a kid was to walk my neighbor's dogs. Since then, I've worked and volunteered with several different animal organizations, completed different training courses, handled dozens of different dogs of all shapes and sizes. Every animal is different, and I respect each and every one! As an artist, I find caring for pets the perfect balance to studio time—nothing inspires a break like a cold nose nudging your elbow or a purring cat settling onto your sketchbook. Pets are treated like family. I believe structure and exercise are important and look for a relaxed demeanor to know that the animals needs have been met.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 and my dad is a professional dog trainer so I’ve had a bunch of experience with dogs and puppies. I’ve had from small dogs to quite large and often I would pet sit for my parents when they’d need to go on trips. I want to be a dog trainer and care taker as a professional career once I earn enough money to go to school for it. I’m very flexible with days and time. About to help my dad with the new litter of German shepherds he’s breeding this fall. So anything from care to training I can take care of and I’m okay with changing plans as long as it’s a couple days before. Thank you for you time!

Rayelle was fantastic while caring for our cat for 10 days. She was prompt at the 2 drop in visits per day, gave him lots of love and scrubbles while there. Kept the litter box clean and everything nice for our return. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her for others who have to leave their fur babies!

Spencer was very good with my two cats. He got the shy independent one to lay with him on the couch. He sent photos everyday and the cats looked very content. Mostly lying around in the same vicinity. Spencer also brought in the packages that were delivered. Would use him again.

Melissa was very responsive, friendly, flexible and professional. She gave us daily updates and pictures of our 2 cats and her animal experience was a definite help, since one cat, can be very aloof and grumpy. We highly recommend Melissa.
