Pet Sitting in Cañon City

“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!”

About: I have personally owned dogs as long as I can remember. From Rottweilers to Chihuahuas. I have dog sat numerous times, between boarding at my house and house sitting at a client’s home. I’m a true dog-lover at heart. I love dogs in all shapes and sizes. They are the most loving and most loyal. They really are better than most people! Lol. I have 2 mini poodles - Penelope and Winston. They are sweet, playful, and love hosting new and familiar friends! I also have experience in taking care of senior dogs including: administering meds, feeding picky eaters, helping with potty breaks, helping with walks, etc. I have personally trained all of the dogs that I have owned. I have lots of puppy experience and don’t believe in “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.” as I have also trained older dogs that I have rescued. I currently work from home and I am usually off by late afternoon/early evening. I can be home with your baby. We can play and take as many potty breaks as needed. I also don’t work on the weekends and like to fill my weekends up with fun activities! I have a fenced in backyard and a safe neighborhood to go on walks. Your doggo would have complete freedom of the house (as long as I’m home, of course). Doggies are allowed on the furniture and allowed to sleep with me. If they are crate trained, of course that’s okay too.

“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 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.

“Exceptional young woman!!!”

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.😌

“Melissa is amazing! There are other people who will do drop-ins for cheaper but they don’t show up or they change their minds at the last minute. Melissa is dependable, she has good dog sense, and she takes her work seriously. I highly recommend working with her!”

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.

“So nice to be able to travel without worrying about our pets while we're away. This is the second time Samantha has taken care of our animals. Highly recommend.”

“Absolutely wonderful!! Couldn't have asked for a better sitter; Laurel kept us updated every visit and sent pictures where our dogs looked so much happier than they ever have at a boarding kennel. Thank you so much!!”

“Jason's help is so appreciated! Our dog Sam was well taken care of (feeding & walking). It looks like Sam made new friends and had fun playing. We would ask for him to come sit Sam again. Thank you !”

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: 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: 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 taken care of dogs my whole life, and as a pet owner and a rover user myself, I take training, consistency, and happy puppies very seriously. Your best friend will be in great hands! I have a 8 month old who LOVES other dogs so if needed or wanted your doggo will have another friend :) *If participating in doggy day care due to me having my own dog, I will only accept dogs good with other dogs* Super flexible! I am very available until May 13th. I'm very active and love dogs so this is a perfect combo. I'm an early riser as well so no worries if your walk is early I follow instructions to the T. If I'm unsure about anything I'll shoot them a text or give them a call. I think it's important to keep consistency.

“On time for visits and made sure to give extra pets for the pup 🙂. Communicated well and very nice!”

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.

“Natalio has been awesome. My cat if very shy and he was able to get her to come say hi several times. Kept the litter clean and fed her daily. Thank you!”
