House Sitting in Castle Valley

“Jayna was very respectful and responsive. She kept me up to date and sent a few pictures each day. She was flexible we we had to adjust times of arrival. We already booked for next weekend”

“Elaine was awesome! She was very on point with appropriate communication and there was never a moment of concern about how things were going.”

“Ryn is doing a good job getting to know and take care of our shy COVID cats, who still don't do well with strangers after never having met anyone during COVID. They are slowly warming up to her, which is very comforting to us while we are away.”

“We came in to Moab for one night, wanted to go shopping and dinner, but couldn’t leave the dogs in the motel room. Amber came to our hotel, and just sat with our dog so they didn’t get lonely or bark and upset all the other guests! She sent updates and photos, You could tell she adored our beautiful puppies, and I felt very confident, knowing they were being taken care of! Thank you, Amber!”

About: I grew up on a farm in Colorado and have spent my whole life caring for my own and other people’s animals. I have experience with challenging behaviors, medication administration, senior pets, and anxious pet care. With 16 years of hands-on animal and farm experience, you can trust my knowledge, reliability, and communication. I live nomadically and work online, so my schedule is flexible and I’m able to give pets lots of time, attention, and consistency while they’re in my care. I know every animal is different, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know their personalities, routines, and comfort levels so they feel safe and settled while you’re away. I work online and live a flexible lifestyle, so I’m able to be very present with the pets in my care. My schedule allows for plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and consistency throughout the day. I’m very attentive to animals, their behavior, and their environment. Whether we’re out on a walk or relaxing at home, I prioritize safety, consistency, and making sure pets feel comfortable, secure, and cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of every sort of critter since I was a little kid and have always been passionate about making animals a part of my life. This includes puppies, dogs with disabilities, blind cats, animals needing medication, and lots of animals with big personalities-I even have one my self (Australian blue healer). I have volunteered all over the country at different shelters while traveling and have worked for shelters and animal ranches. You could say I know a thing or two about animals. My dogs are essentially my kids and come on almost every adventure with me. With clients, I treat their dog exactly how I expect others to treat my furry ones when I’m out of town. If there is anything special that you’d like to let me know, then I am all ears. I spend most of my free time rock climbing and adventuring outdoors. I also love to read and paint, so if your dog isn’t as active, I will certainly lounge around with them :) All of my pets get better care than I think most dogs ever get and your dog will be treated just the same! My dogs are always involved in every activity and never feel left out. They all love to learn, play, walk, adventure and of course get snacks! Just let me know how you normally take care of your dog and we can make it work!

“We were out of town for two days and Rachel and Stefan stepped into help us last minute take care of our dogs. We could not have been happier with their service. The dogs seemed content and happy when we returned and the house was left in an orderly condition. They followed our instructions for dog care and asked pertinent questions. I would definitely use them again for our furry pups.”

About: Dogs that come visit usually have a blast being part of the pack and end up learning some desirable behaviors with my 2 service animals Bellie and Lola. I am a retired veteran so i am free to work with dogs all day everyday, its very rewarding and works great with my schedule. I have a couple of runners set up and shade structures. When it is hot I let the dogs inside. I take the dogs out to play with my pack often. We will go on walks, throw frizbee, play tag, practice tricks, etc. I like to take the dogs swimming too if thats permitted by the owners before hand ( I have doggy life jackets).

About: Hello neighbors, I'm Kate, I've had pets (cats, dogs, rabbits, turtles, fish...) for my whole life! I had my last dog, Tucker for nearly 18 years and look forward to treating your pet family like my own. I am a certified reiki practitioner and death doula, and have been blessed to be able to support several canine clients in their closing periods.

And if you want something challenging for a wild pup, I also offer daily hikes: $60 (message me) DAYCARE HOURS: 9-5 extended stay (up to 4 hours): $25 for 1 dog / $35 for 2 dogs I work remotely and am able to take time away from my flexible projects during the day to care for your special creatures as needed! DAYCARE HOURS: 9-5 extended stay (up to 4 hours): $25 for 1 dog / $35 for 2 dogs I am a Wilderness First Responder, and also trained in various animal emergency situations, can administer pills, inhalers, and injections. In addition to a lifetime of my own pets, I have many years of professional pet care experience, as well! If you're worried about your pup's breed or behavioral issues--fear not. I had 12 wonderful years with a pit bull (despite some aggression) and I started out in pet care at a bully breed facility in Chicago that specialized in dogs no one else would take.
