“Spencer responded to a last minute request, agreed to meet me ahead of the sit to meet my dogs and was prompt and professional. He kept me well informed daily with photos and reports. I would highly recommend him!”

“Rayelle was amazing! It was a long trip and she kept us informed the entire time. Had very good communication! If something changed with her daily schedule, she would be in contact to ask if it was okay. We had a bad experience with our last rover sitter, so I was very nervous this time around. But after Rayelle got to our house, I was at ease and didn't worry our entire trip. She even did the laundry and cleaned before we got home. Which was very helpful after driving across country for 2 days. She loved our dog like her own! She is a natural when it comes to taking care of dogs and really takes it seriously. Our dog enjoyed his time with Rayelle! He was such a happy guy when we got home and I could tell it was like we didn't even leave. We also loved the foot print she left us. Such a sweet gift! We look forward to having Rayelle was our dog again!”


“I have had Jason sit in my home a few times now and we all LOVE him! He's kind, knowledgeable, and loves my doggies! I highly recommend Jason to anyone, especially large dog owners.”

“I highly recommend requesting Sadie to watch your fur babies. She did an awesome job with our 2 Pyrenees and even cleaned up an accident. She was very communicative and followed our instructions as requested. I will be booking Sadie again in the future if she’s available.”

“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!”
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!
“We would highly recommend Jean for all your pet sitting needs! She is trustworthy, dependable & very communicative. We especially appreciated the daily updates & photos she sent. We enjoyed our time away immensely knowing our cat Phoebe’s care was in such good hands! Thank you Jean!!!😻”

About: I've taken care of dogs and various other animals for 9 years now. We have 2 dogs of our own a GSP puppy and a creme Labrador. They are both friendly pups. I am currently working part time at AMR and am a stay at home mom full time due to my daughters care needs. We are home daily and would be around to play with your fur family and keep them company while you are gone! We allow dogs inside and on the furniture. We have a fenced in front yard that the dogs can go outside and potty and play in. They can go on walks as we live on a almost 3 acre farm.
About: Our family had dogs since I was a young boy; I've had many since then. I've also trained them. We also had fish, hamsters, birds, reptiles and lizards as pets. Some 15 years ago, one of my dogs went blind... I cared for him for 10 yrs after that until he passed away. He never left my side. A few years ago, I got another dog but she died of cancer last year. At the moment, I don't have a dog (she died) but I have 5 cats. I do rather well with both and my cats are quite used to dogs. I used to live on a ranch where we raised Arabians; I was responsible for feeding & caring as many as 18 horses. When I was younger, I rode often and played polo. My father passed 10 yrs ago and his wife sold our ranch. I am available to feed horses provided that I'm paid the time it takes to travel back and forth. I am available for cat/dog sitting & feeding. If you need dog boarding, please let me know if you pet gets along with cats. I work from home, so I am a home quite a bit. I also have a flexible schedule, and this can be accomodated to work around certain issues or conflicts. Please contact me with any questions, concerns, or comments. I have a large (unfenced) yard, but I am willing to take your pet on walks in my neighborhood, as needed. I live one block away from a park. I am home quite often, so your pet will rarely be left alone. I am available for drop-ins, visits, or even overnights.

“Edyn was a wonderful Rover for my 6 yr old mini Schauzer. In fact, we've booked her again already. She's very prompt, sent photos and updates, and clearly loves dogs. Highly recommended”

About: Currently, I work part-time at boarding & grooming facility in Pueblo West, CO. As a kennel technician, I work with dogs/cats of all behaviors and a variety of medications (except ones with a needle). Now approaching 2 years working there, I can handle just about any quirks your pets have. My mom has always worked in vet medicine, so my passion for animals started from the beginning! My real pet care started when we brought home a Aussie/Border Collie rescue, while I was just a pre-teen. He was very emotionally shut down when we brought him home, technically, not adoptable. This was my first in-depth introduction to dog behaviors and how complicated herding breeds can be. My other main passion is photography, which dogs are one of my favorite subjects! While the services I offer vary, my main love is nature & wildlife. When I'm not working at the kennel, I'm building my business! I work part-time, but my schedule can be a bit sporadic, either a half day in the morning or afternoon (either 7am-1 pm or 1pm-6pm). The rest of the time, I would be able to spend with your animals! While house-sitting, I like to spend lots of time with the pets because I value their trust & comfort over anything! I'm an early riser, so we can get outside for a walk before it's too hot! With lots of practice and a strong Pitbull of my own at home, I can handle walking strong dogs. Pets are treated as an equal member of the family! Being in their space, I understand the importance of maintaining their routine and habits. I know from my time at the kennel that feeding/medication schedules and directions can be very specific. Also, I am happy to continue any training or work they've already been doing!
About: I have owned dogs cats and horses for over 20 years! I volunteered at a therapeutic animal ranch for 4 years and enjoy being around all animals. I love jogging and walking, and anything outdoors. I am able to administer medication and care for senior animals as well. I currently work part time however my schedule allows for a lot of flexibility as I am able to pick up and drop shifts. I am willing to travel as well. I have 3 acres of fully fenced yard where your babies can run and play. Pets are allowed and encouraged to sleep on the bed!
“Absolutely fantastic experience! Danielle was incredibly responsive and able to help us out last minute, which was such a relief. She sent tons of adorable photos of our pups while we were away, which we loved. Super responsible, respectful, and left the house spotless. We’ll definitely be using her again!”
“Jenn was a great house and dog sitter. She communicated well and gave us nice updates on our dog while we were away. She took great care of the house too. Her pup was a great friend to our doggo too.”

“Maria was so wonderful! She kept me updated daily and my dog absolutely adored her. She took wonderful care of my house and went above and beyond my expectations. Highly recommend booking her!”

“Debbie is an exceptional pet and house sitter! Given the flexibility in her work schedule, she took the initiative to come out and meet us and our dogs before we left our trip. This allowed us to walk her through their routine and familiarize her with our home, creating an immediate sense of confidence in leaving our dogs under her care. Debbie's warm personality, coupled with her thoughtful questions, endeared her to both us and our dogs right away. Throughout our time away, Debbie consistently provided daily updates, complete with photos, and maintained open communication whenever she had questions, demonstrating her commitment to ensuring our pets were well cared for. I really appreciated her proactive approach to keeping us informed. When we got home, we were delighted to find our home in pristine condition, if not even cleaner than we left it! Debbie's attention to detail and respect for our space was clear, reinforcing our decision to entrust her with both our pets and home. Given the positive experience, we have already booked her for our next trip! Debbie's professionalism, reliability, and genuine love for animals make her a top choice for anyone seeking a trustworthy and caring pet/house sitter.”

Harlie was wonderful! Yara had constant attention and was well taken care of - everything I hoped for! I was impressed by her willingness to do what I asked for Yara’s care and how well she kept in touch during my absence. I will definitely use her again for future stays! JW
