About: I grew up on a farm in rural Minnesota so was surrounded by animals daily. I've had pets my whole life. I absolutely love dogs and even dreamed about being an animal behaviorist. I've volunteered with animal shelters for the last 10+ years. When I lived in Nevada, I took photos of the dogs and cats to help with adoption and took the animals to events when needed. In my downtime, I would help train the dogs on certain skills. After moving to Colorado, I volunteered with Colorado Animal Rescue, focusing mostly on the cats. I attended a clicker training orientation with the shelter and did a one-on-one session learning how to clicker train with the dogs. I aim to continue that in the future. I took a break from Rover for a while—but I'm back! My schedule is more flexible now so am able to drop in and check on your beloved family members. I will love your pet as if it's my own! I'm very detail-oriented and believe like humans, care can be different upon every animal. I will listen, take notes and do all that is asked of me when caring for your pet.

About: I take care of your animals/ houses like there were my own. I am responsible and respectful towards others. Animals love me because I treat them like my kids. I work on a ranch helping feeding horses and putting up hay for the winter I am available for any shift. I would love to take care of animals all day. Fitting into my schedule works great. I really enjoy company of animals Watching animals out of there own home is less stressful for the animals but I am set up to take in animals with a fenced in small back yard.

“**A Memorable Experience in Carbondale and Glenwood Springs** We had the pleasure of booking Aspen during our camping trip to Carbondale, and she truly made our adventure unforgettable. Aspen's flexibility allowed us to enjoy two wonderful days exploring the hot springs in Glenwood Springs. She went above and beyond by taking our pups, Mia and Daisy, on a delightful hike, ensuring they had as much fun as we did. Her care and attention to our furry friends were evident, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. Aspen's love for animals and her dedication to providing exceptional service made our trip even more special. We wholeheartedly recommend Aspen to anyone seeking a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. Her commitment to our pets' well-being and her warm, friendly demeanor made all the difference. Thank you, Aspen, for adding that extra touch to our memorable getaway!”


About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and even horses. I’ve had my Lab for 6 years and grew up with both a dog and a cat. I’ve also helped care for my sister’s energetic German Shepherd and her cat. In my early 20s, I had horses and learned the importance of patience, routine, and calm energy when working with animals of all sizes. Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy cat, I treat every pet like family and always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and at home. I have a very flexible schedule and can adjust to meet your pet’s needs. Whether it’s regular walks or drop-ins, I’m happy to work around your availability. Just let me know what works best for you! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow your instructions closely and take the time to get to know each pet’s unique needs and personality. During walks or drop-ins, I keep a close eye on surroundings, use secure leashes or harnesses, and never rush. I treat every home with the same respect I’d want in mine, and I’m committed to creating a calm, caring experience every visit.

“Megan has been prompt, professional and reliable. Great communication. Megan just started walking my dog this week, but she and "Nellie" are already great buddy's. It is reassuring to me that my dog is being exercised and cared on days when I do not have the time. We are looking forward to using Megan lots in the future.”


“Karissa was so awesome to jump in and help walk my doggo while I was away on business. Having her pitch in really helped my husband who was home but has his own busy schedule, and put my mind at ease that Gunner would get double the attention and love and walks while I was away. Thank you Karissa!”


“Takes great care of our pups thank you savanna!”


About: Hi, my name is Marissa. I’m from Northern California. My schedule doesn’t allow me to fully take care of a pet, so I decided it’s time to take care of others’ pets. I’ve grown up with Labrador Retrievers. I’ve mostly been trusted to take care of medium to larger sized dogs, as I’ve experienced them more. This is the first time in my life where I’m not taking care of a pet. It’s very different. I constantly ask my parents to send me pics of our dogs. I miss them! Their names are Callie (7 yrs) and Winston (4 yrs). I have been in and out of the RFV for 3 years. I love every season to which this area has to offer. I enjoy skiing, hiking, and reading. I just miss having dogs in my life! I am more available on the weekends than during the week! I think it’s very important to be around animals! I am unable to care for a pet in my own home, but I am available to commute to a client’s home. I am also willing to find nearby parks and/or designated walking areas if need be.

About: I care for each pet with full attention, kindness and respect. I offer gentle care, fun walks and calm connection. Every pet is unique and I do my best to make them feel safe and happy I would love to care for pets as my main job, so I’m happy to help any day of the week. My schedule is flexible and I’m easy to reach. I make sure pets feel at home — whether I’m caring for them in your space or mine. I offer close supervision, gentle handling, and follow their usual schedule. I don’t have a fenced yard, so I only allow outdoor time on leash and under watch.

About: I grew up with dogs and had roommates with dogs in college. In college I would watch friends and acquaintances dogs due to the flexibility in my class schedule. I love all dogs and would eventually like to have one of my own. I have always been on the more logical side though and am currently renting in the Roaring Fork Valley. I have found that it is easier to find rent in most places without a furry companion. So whenever I can get the opportunity I love watching friends, coworkers, family and acquaintances dogs! I truly wish that I could have one of my own at this time but am patiently waiting to eventually own a place of my own and can then do so. In the meantime I would love to watch anyone's dog and love on them as if they were my own. I am currently working full time Monday-Thursday and sometimes Friday, but have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I am around many weekends and love being active! I like to run, walk, bike and hike. I can stay your house to watch if needed and can let them out throughout the day if they are within a reasonable area from work. I would love to take your dog on a long walk after work if that is the case or can hangout if they are older. I am around most weekends but will be traveling a couple of the weekends in the summer. I am not allowed to have pets at my current rental. If needed I could bring them to my rental for the day if they are well behaved. However, I do prefer the your home if possible. Every pet is different so please let me know, if your pet is better on or off leash, if they have any specific commands or what they need to feel most comfortable while you are away. I am very flexible and open to what may be needed.

About: When I was 12, my aunt gifted me a toy poodle, and that marked the beginning of my pet care journey. She’s now 13 years old and still in great health. Over the years, I’ve taken care of her grooming, dental cleaning, daily walks, and regular vet checkups. I learned how to read her body language, manage her diet as she aged, and make homemade food when she got picky with kibble. I work full-time as a barista, usually from 6:30 AM to 3:00 PM, which means I’m available in the afternoons and evenings to care for your pet. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, walks, or just keeping them company, I have the energy (and the love!) to give them the attention they need! At the moment, I live with housemates, so I’m not able to host pets in my home. However, I’m happy to care for your pet in your space to ensure their comfort and well-being. I always follow your instructions closely, whether it’s feeding, walks, administering medication, or maintaining litter boxes. I keep their environment clean, stick to their routines, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away.

“Victoria was great with Delaney!”


About: Nick and I keep and active lifestyle. We are always out with our dog, Moby, on trails with our bikes or on foot. Your dog will get to play with Moby, just turn a year and can play all day and can become apart of our adventures on the trail. We have a flexible work schedule, leaving one of us at home almost at all times. Nick has a really great calming and commanding voice that dogs seem to respond well to. I am the playful one that becomes the best friend until I have to command correction. Moby is Nick's second dog and my first. Moby has been the most stubborn dog to train, however we have worked to remain patient during training and we have learned how to work with Moby better each day.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs and years of caring for a variety of breeds since moving to the valley. I’m skilled at handling multiple dogs at once, including those with different temperaments, ensuring each one receives the care and attention they need. I have a very flexible schedule and I am able to travel to provide my services. With some notice I can be available for anything you need! I have one gray tabby cat who is a little timid with dogs at first but warms up quickly and has made friends with several dogs in the past. We are able to separate her in another room if needed. She is not great with other cats but as stated before we can separate if and when needed to ensure comfort and safety for everyone involved! I professionally care for your home property and pets, handling tasks like plant care, mail collection, bird feeders, snow clearing, feeding and medications if necessary, As well as any other duties during your absence. With experience overseeing properties for extended periods, I ensure all needs are met with direct and frequent communication, so you can have peace of mind knowing your home and your pets are in trusted hands!

“Lu is the absolute BEST! He is always there when we need him in a crunch and Roo seems so happy when she’s under his wing. He sends the cutest photos and it looks like they’re having a blast. Highly recommend Lu for any of your pups needs!”

About: While I am based out of Golden, I work remotely so I'm able to care for pets and homes anywhere throughout the state! I've taken care of dogs of my own, roommates dogs, friends' pets, and Rover sits over the past 10 years. I've taken care of dogs between puppy age and 13 years old. I've also cat sat for friends over the years. I currently live in an apartment so I unfortunately can't board any at my home. However I'm happy to watch them from the comfort of their home. My schedule is really flexible with my remote job and I'm happy to take them on walks and potty/play breaks throughout the day. The longest I've watched someone's pet was for 2 months and I loved it! Feel free to reach out with any other questions! I'm currently in between jobs. I am able to be very attentive and love to take morning walks, midday walks or fetch, and evening walks. I can take them to the dog park or on hikes or if they're good with bikes, I can take them on even longer run/bike rides. I am very respectful and clean when staying at a clients house. I treat it like my own (if not better). I love to go for walks with your pup and keep them on leash. I also don't give in on the cute puppy eyes when I'm eating my food and keep them to their parents approved food and treats.

“Laurie is as advertised and she loved on Storm and got her out for some good walks this week when we were traveling. We will invite her to come help again for sure.”


About: I have many years of experience in taking care pets, growing up taking care of four amazing cats and one super sweet Bernese mountain dog. He loved long walks on the beach and the kitties loved their treats, lazer pointers, and snuggles. Family and friends have referred to me as the cat and dog whisperer! I will be able to anticipate their needs whether they need pets and loving, their water freshened up, or a hike through the park or forest, I can be your go to girl for all your pets needs whether it be a lazy day at home resting or a romp through the forest and a day full of adventure and excitement!

I’m currently in between seasonal work gardening in the summer and at the ski mountain in the winter so I have a very flexible availability. I can easily cater to your pets specific needs whether they like a more leisurely laid back lifestyle or a more active and outdoorsy lifestyle.

Amy M.

“I highly suggest using Amy as your dog sitter choice! She is so loving and kind to all animals, but is a huge puppy lover! She has volunteered at local shelters, taken photos for them as well as fundraised for shelters. She is the best dog mom to her own pup (Riley) who is sweetest! He is a well-behaved office dog, cuddler and his favorite past time is swimming & hiking! Trust Amy to take care of your fur-baby, give them all the pets, walks and attention to make them happy.”
