“My wife and I had a meet & greet with Tamarah a couple of days earlier and found her to be very capable and personable. She was also very responsive to our inquiries and did a great job walking our two dogs. Will definitely use her again.”

About: I’ve had several dogs since I was a kid. Currently we have 4, including one puppy. I’m used to taking care of all dog personalities, like nervous puppies, grouchy old dogs, and hyper pups. I work occasional nights about twice a week from 4:30-10 at a restaurant. I would be out of the house at that time, but I often get cut early so we can further discuss when booking. I am comfortable crating dogs. I am also used to administering pills to dogs and cats, even those who don’t love to take their medication.

“Jasper has been a huge help walking our dog, Birdie. She can be very nervous and somewhat reactive around new people, but he has been incredibly patient and accommodating with her. He’s given her the time and space she needs to slowly warm up, which we really appreciate. Jasper is always timely, responsible, professional, and very communicative. You can truly tell he loves animals, and Birdie is in great hands with him!”

“Mariah recently came and walked my dog while we were out for a long day with family in town. I will definitely be having her come back! She communicated quickly, took great photos, and my dog loved her!”

McKenzie B.

“Super responsive! Was able to book a last minute walk. My dog seemed to love Marissa the second she knocked on the door. Would definitely use her again🐶”

About: Animals are what makes me happiest from small to big. I have had all rescue dogs so I’m used to timid personalities, I also was a four year FFA student working with many animal types! I am currently a student athlete attending Keene State College I have a flexible schedule, very much a morning person, happy to help at any time. I currently have a very dog friendly house with a fenced in back yard and a closed in sun porch that is dog approved for catching some sun!

About: I’ve owned and trained two dogs from puppyhood—a Husky and my current German Wirehaired Pointer, Lenny. Training and building a strong relationship with my dogs has always been important to me. Having lived in the Roaring Fork Valley for over 12 years, I spend most of my time outdoors hiking, walking, and exploring. When your pup stays with me—whether for an hour, a day, or overnight—you can count on them getting plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention. They’ll come home happy, tired, and ready to snuggle. I work from home so I usually get out for a walk or run in the morning. Afternoon jont to split up the day and then an evening activity depending on what is on the schedule. I have a fenced backyard and Lenny (my pup) to add to the fun. She’s a great companion to other dogs but also great for training.

“Great communication & very kind”

About: I have leash trained and kennel trained dogs over the years and train animals through gentle repetition and reward. Comfortable with special care such as medication or reasonable accommodation. I work from home during the day. We have a Golden Retriever named Biscuit and a Kelpie named Indi who are both super friendly and ready to play. We would prefer daytime services aside from boarding. I've lovingly cared for dogs since age 10, my mom’s farm in Missouri currently has 5 border collies. I love animals. Family, Neighbors and friends have trusted me for years to provide attentive walking & feeding for their furry companions. Currently since we have ample space on the ranch for outdoor play I have decided to start these services. We will have frequent trips to nearby parks like Sutey Ranch, Red Mt and Crown Mt.

“Suzanne is super professional and great with our dog. She provided updates and is easy to communicate with. Highly recommended her!”

Sarah E.

“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!”

Elle P.

“Sunny looks very happy in the pictures Melissa sends. She’s super easy to communicate with and gives updates on her walks about Sunny’s status!”

About: Hi, I’m Sara! I’m a veterinary assistant with years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds—dogs, birds, fish, guinea pigs and more! I’ve lived in the Roaring Fork Valley for 3 years and will be attending Colorado Mountain College this fall to become a vet tech. I have experience with pet sitting and dog walking, and I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, including seniors (I have one of my own!). I’m insured and committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care for your pets like they’re my own. Pet care fits into my routine primarily on Fridays through Sundays, which I keep open for dog walking and pet sitting. I structure those days around the pets’ needs and scheduled visits, making sure I have consistent time blocks for feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins so each animal gets reliable care and attention. Because I’m already used to working a structured weekday schedule, I plan my weekends in advance to prioritize pet care bookings and avoid overbooking. I stay flexible for morning, midday, and evening visits depending on what the pet needs, and I make sure I allow enough time between visits so I’m never rushed and each pet gets proper attention. For longer pet sitting stays, I can adjust my routine to accommodate extended care, including overnight stays if needed. In those cases, I focus on maintaining the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible while still balancing my other responsibilities. Overall, I treat pet care as a dedicated part of my weekend schedule, with flexibility for longer stays when needed, while ensuring every pet receives consistent, reliable care. I provide attentive, reliable care tailored to each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific medical or behavioral needs. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to keep pets in their familiar environment and routine as stress-free as possible. This includes feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, administering medications if needed, cleaning up after them, and making sure they get appropriate exercise, enrichment, and affection. I also respect the client’s home by keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. If I am caring for pets in my own home, I maintain a safe, calm environment with constant supervision when pets are present. I ensure proper separation if needed, secure outdoor access at all times, and keep routines consistent with the owner’s instructions to reduce anxiety. My background working in a veterinary setting also helps me recognize signs of stress or illness early, so I can respond appropriately and communicate with the owner right away if anything seems off. My priority is always the pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being.

About: I worked as a dog walker and pet sitter right after I graduated college, and I’ve looked after friends cats and dogs while they have been traveling. I am a music teacher which means I have many breaks in my work throughout the day, and most of my work is during after-school hours. I will keep an eye on the pets at all times and not leave them unattended. I will keep dogs on leash when out and about, and in a fenced in yard or in the house when not on leash. I will be mindful of allowing pets to interact with other pets based on owner experience and preference.

About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life and own a horse in Florida. I am currently without pets here in the valley and I am looking to assist with pet sitting, walks, and potty breaks etc... I work for RFTA full time but the spring is our slow season and I love to take dogs on walks etc.... I will have time for pet sitting and walks. I will always make sure the pets have what they need and have plenty of potty breaks. I work for RFTA and we are going into a slow season for spring and I will have plenty of time to do this.

“Alexandra was great with my dog! She was responsive and easy to work with. Definitely would use her services again.”

About: I am based in Carbondale, CO. I am currently pet/house sitting full time throughout the summer so I'm able to provide a high level of care for pets and homes throughout the valley! I've cared for my own dogs, roommates' dogs, friends' pets, Trusted Housesitter stays, and Rover sits over the past 10 years. I've cared for dogs from puppyhood to 13 years old. I've also cat-sat for friends, Trusted Housesitters, and Rover clients over the years. I'm happy to take them on walks, hikes, dog parks, and potty/play breaks throughout the day. The longest I've watched someone's pet was for 2 months, and I loved it! I'm also happy to take them camping if that's their jam. Feel free to reach out with any other questions! A note on transportation - I have a regular vehicle (Subaru Outback) in addition to my ambulance camper. I also have a bike I often enjoy cycling throughout the valley, so parking availability at your home should not be an issue. I currently am full time pet sitting for the summer. I am very attentive and love morning, midday, 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 client's house. I treat it like my own (if not better). I love going for walks with your pup and keeping them on a leash. I also don't give in to the cute puppy eyes when I'm eating my food and keep them to their parents' approved food and treats.
