“Cara did an amazing job taking care of our four animals! You can tell she truly loves animals and spent a lot of time with them while we were away. She followed all of our instructions perfectly, and we came home to very happy and well-cared-for pets. On top of that, she left our house in great shape. We felt completely at ease knowing our pets were in such good hands. We would absolutely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”


2. Meghan L.

“Fantastic dogsitter! Meghan watched our dogs again and always loves them so well (even with all their quirks!). She is easy to talk with and responds so quickly to everything. Can’t wait to have her watch our dogs for many future trips!”


3. Beverly Y.

“Beverly did a great job with our dog Koda. We will definitely be using her again. She sent pictures everyday and left the house exactly how we left it. I would recommend her to anyone! ☺️”


4. Ariel C.

“Ariel and her husband Ben were so great with our 2 puppies! We were a little nervous to take a trip without our dogs since they are young rescue pups and have only been with us about 2.5 months, but Ariel and Ben put our minds at ease while we were away. They came over for 2 meet and greets before hand so we could see how their dogs got along with ours. It worked out so great for Ariel to watch our dogs at our house and for her pups to come over for play dates. She regularly sent pictures and updates and we really appreciated that. Great communication before, during and after! Would absolutely recommend Ariel!”


5. Chase H.

“Chase was awesome! The boys loved him and he left my yard better than what he found it. He sent photos and videos of the boys. If I was staying in Colorado I would book with him again.”




6. Jason M.


“We felt lucky to have Jason in town to watch our Bodie! Just as we suspected, he was a great fit for our energetic puppy who needed someone patient and caring for the day. Also his dog Juniper is sweet as pie and was a wonderful puppy sitter too - we saw them running together when we came for pickup, and our pup was having too much of a blast to be in a hurry home. We definitely recommend this awesome duo, and we wish they would always be in town.”

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats and other pets my entire life and I have a deep LOVE for all animals. Mostly I've cared for my own, but friends and family have always asked me to help out when they needed a sitter, often for extended time-frames. I've even given a couple dogs shots for health issues. I am pretty flexible and very reliable. Don't have a typical job, so I am usually available. Just let me know when you need me. I will work with your situation as necessary. I have often taken care of several pets at a time, and am experienced in keeping your fur-baby safe. You can trust me to care for your sweet little ones. (Or big ones.)


8. Weston K.
“amazing with pets knows how to take care of all their needs would recommend to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter for sure”




9. Melissa B.

“Melissa stayed at my apartment for 12 days with my dog and everything went well! She was very responsive anytime I checked in, my dog was well taken care of and she left my apartment super clean- will definitely use her again for future trips!”


10. Brooke F.

“Brooke was an amazing buddy to Gizmo during our touristy visit to Cañon City! She put me totally at ease throughout the process with fast communication and was happy to hang with Giz in our motel room while we were out. He was very happy, relaxed, and clearly thrilled with her calm dog-person demeanor. Brooke really went the extra mile and I can’t recommend her highly enough!”


11. Chris F.

“Capone, my pittie, looks forward to the sitter coming by my place twice a day to be fed, play ball, and go for walks in the neighborhood, while I'm at work. I get updates & pics every time. (* * * * * stars!)”


12. Laura P.

“I came home to two very happy and well taken care of pups when Laura house sat for us. Our dogs can be very needy and they're also jumpers. Laura was a pro with them.”


13. Jazmine & Nakia N.
“To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Jazmine as a pet sitter. I have known Jazmine for over six years, and during this time, she has consistently been my go-to person whenever my animals needed care, whether it was for pet sitting or walking while I was away. Jazmine has always been incredibly reliable, compassionate, and attentive when it comes to my pets. She takes the time to understand their needs, routines, and personalities, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for in my absence. Her genuine love for animals shines through in everything she does, and I can always count on her to go above and beyond. Thanks to Jazmine , I’ve been able to leave home with complete peace of mind, knowing my furry friends were in the best hands. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated pet sitter. Sincerely, Nautica Jamieson”


14. Michael C.

“Michael (Captain) was so helpful, communicative, and kind with Jonas, His dog Cheyenne came with and easily adjusted to sharing space with Jonas and my guy enjoyed having a playmate with she and Captain. I felt completely at ease being away. He was also flexible with helping me accommodate some winter weather flying in and out of Denver. He treated my home as his own and took excellent care. I highly recommend reaching out to him to help with a house sit or any type of pet care needed. He’s right that dogs love him!!”


15. Fiona D.

“Fiona was great! She was available last minute after another sitter ghosted us. She was communicative, kind, and left our home clean and animals well cared for. She did a great job sending updates and pictures and we felt very confident and comfortable having her stay in our home. We would use her again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much Fiona!!”


16. Lorianne D.

“Lorianne is very professional and friendly. She took great care of our dogs and horses. Her communication with us was great and kept us updated! Our home was clean and she even washed her towels and bedding so I didn’t have to worry about it when we arrived home. We will definitely use her again!!!”


17. Elizabeth S.
About: I have been around animals my entire life! I took an interest in animal care when our family dog was a senior, and was diagnosed with kidney failure. A little while after she was diagnosed, we got a puppy. She was supposed to be another family dog, she just liked me better. Taking care of a puppy and a senior dog was tough at times, but there was never a dull moment! A while after our senior dog passed away my puppy was diagnosed with a thyroid issue. So giving medication to your pups is not an issue! Feeling accomplished, knowing your dogs are very happy and healthy. With you putting the time and energy into helping them grow. Loving pets every single day is just good for the soul. My pets are very routine-oriented, and due to this I will learn about your pups schedule and the little quirks and stick to them! With lots of love and attention.


18. Miriam B.
“Miriam is truly the best with animals! She will love them and spoil them and care for them as if they were her own. She was warm and friendly and you can really tell she loves them. I would definitely recommend her!”


19. Miranda S.
“Miranda is an animal lover! I've known Miranda for many years now and she has a great temperament when dealing with animals and especially a great love for doggies!! She is everything you want in a dog sitter, because she is active and knows how to care for dogs too. She knows how to handle the basic needs of a dog.”


20. John F.
“John F. was great with my dog Cindy. She is a black lab and very hyper. I had to leave for a family emergency and he was right there willing to work last minute. He played with her everyday and sent me pictures and video. When I came back my dog was happy as can be and I think she made a new friend. I will definitely be using john again the next time I need him to watch cindy. Thank you John.”
