House Sitting in Colfax

“Recently her availability has been good. Always a good communicator and sends routine pics of our pets to check in. House is clean and tidy when we return. Meija gets her walks in and seems to enjoy hanging out with Nancy. Good job.”

“Viginia was excellent! She is very punctual, commincates well, and most importantly she took great care of our dog and our house. Will definitely use her services again.”

“Katelyn was wonderful to work with! We felt comfortable that our pup was in good hands while we were away. She sent us photos and updates daily! She took our active dog on walks and played with her! She was very professional and went above and beyond for us to return to a clean house!”

“Shayna was outstanding! My dog requires insulin injections twice a day and Shayna had no problem with taking this on. She made me feel very comfortable leaving my girl with her for the weekend. Her communication is great, she kept me updated daily and sent me pictures too! I highly recommend her!”

“Emma was great! Responsive, responsible, and great with my pup! I'm a sitter myself on Rover, so my bar is pretty high and I'm quite picky with who I let into my hope and who I ask to watch my dog. Emma was all green flags right away. She made it easy to set up a meet-and-greet. Came over and let me take the time to go over all the particulaties of the space (there were many) -- I've recently moved into my Grandma's home, as she died a few months back. Her keepsakes and belongings are still everywhere in the space, And I thought it would be nerve-wracking to let someone into that space with so many priceless (to me) items were still all over the place. Emma heard me out and made me feel confident that she understood where I was coming from and how special the space was to me. After an hour with Emma, I was totally at ease. My dog took to her right away, and I'm sure yours will too! Book Emma while you still can! As a sitter myself, I finally have another person to refer my clients to when I'm not available (it took years to find someone I'd trust with my clients). Emma will be my go-to when I'm out of town, and she should be yours too.”

About: I started taking care of friends' and neighbors' dogs after retiring in 2024. My lifelong love for cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes is now my daily passion! As an active retiree, I don't have any pets currently, and the house is empty and waiting for my next furry friend! I've cared for everything from dachshunds to a Bernese Mountain Dog. I love cats, but I want to watch them in your home, not mine. Happy to house-sit, work overnight shifts, and care for senior dogs and puppies. Although I don't have a fenced yard, I do have miles of walking trails and parks in the community, as well as an electronic fence for any dogs that need unrestricted access to a yard. I am fully retired and spend my days caring for your pets. Rarely will your important pet be left alone, if at all. I used Rover with my senior dog, Tucker, for over 5 years and met some wonderful people. It was a relief to me when I traveled, knowing my best friend was also enjoying his time in a safe, loving home. Now I meet new animal friends every week, and it feeds my soul and theirs. Your fur baby will have a dedicated sleeping space, feeding space, and unlimited access to our yard, depending on your needs. Full access to the entire house. I encourage you to bring toys, pet beds, crates, and any other items that will make your cherished pet comfortable. We are comfortable giving medication to older dogs, working with young puppies, and customizing our days to fit your pet's regular routines (such as walks, feeding, medication, and brushing). We have access to a private dog park, but we only go there after discussing it with you in advance. Note: we have an unfenced yard but use sound/ vibration to alert your pup if s/he is trying to escape. No electricity involved, just moderate stimulation. Most dogs learn the boundaries very quickly and without any discomfort.

“Meaghan did an excellent job. My dog was very happy with her. When we came back home everything was in order and our dog more happy than never !”

“Simone had great communication and was amazingly flexible with our timing needs - during a holiday weekend on top of that! Having peace of mind while away was much appreciated. She was respectful and easy going. Would definitely have her back to watch my mischievous pittie anytime!”

“Was available at the last minute when our regular dogsitter had a medical emergency. Very caring for our dog and took her on long walks. She was happy when we returned.”

“Dayton is the dog sitter and person we have been hoping for and waiting for. She arrived right on time, and immediately connected with Tuli our German Shepherd. IYKYK how loud and scary a German Shepherd's bark can be when someone new arrives in her/our domain. Dayton was nonplussed, and Tuli felt totally comfortable with her instantaneously. Additionally, Dayton is a very kind, caring person and someone we will from now on ask to care for Tuli.”

“Amy was a great sitter for our pups Cali and Stella! We knew they were in great hands on our vacation which gave us great piece of mind. Can't wait to have Amy stay again!”

Paul K.

“Alex was so amazing staying at the house with my dog! She sent lots of updates and was extremely flexible when my travel plans were delayed and she had to stay an extra night. I will definitely be using Alex again!”

Annalise M.

“Carly was a more than exceptional pet sitter! She had such a calm, kind demeanor and asked great introduction questions. My three dogs are a bit anxious so it was a gift to have someone like Carly watching them when we were away. She gave us frequent updates and pictures of how the pups were doing and they looked so happy in each photo. Carly is a must for anyone who wants to be certain that their pets are being looked after with the utmost care. Would highly recommend her services and we definitely will be using them again ourselves! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Cynthia was fantastic! She clearly loves animals and will care for your pets as if they were her own. She came over with a binder before her stay and took detailed notes on all the info she needed. She was a good communicator and shared photos of the dogs regularly. Our dogs seemed great when we returned and our house looked cleaner than when we left it. She’s a delightful person, a true professional and we can’t wait to ask her to watch our guys again!”

James H.

“Jasmine was excellent and we're happy to have her again! She was so great with Harper and Lady when we went out of town and she took great care of our home. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you Jasmine!”

About: I got my first dog when I was six, and growing up he was my best friend. I also had lizards, birds, fish, frogs, hamsters, and cats! Ever since then, I have always been passionate about helping dogs and other animals. I've taken care of many dogs and cats over the years of all sizes and ages, and now I want to make this passion my work. My favorite part about taking care of dogs is walking them. I have a Border Collie and know how to handle hyper and active dogs. I have experience taking care of disabled pets as well- I had a small dog that used a wheel chair for years and lived a happy life. All of my friends and family call me first when in need of a pet sitter because they know I'm capable and that I truly care. Whether you need walking, bathing, feeding, or someone to assist with your special needs pet, I have done it all and would love to help! I am available to walk your dog and take care of your pets any day of the week. So send me a message and I will respond quickly! First, I ask pet owners if there are any requirements or concerns to be aware of when I am entering their home to care for their pet. In addition, I always like to know what treats or activities their pets enjoy. For example, during an appointment, I will often greet pets with their favorite treat, check if they need water, take care of any potty or medical needs, and stimulate them with their favorite activity! Before leaving, I make sure I have performed all required tasks requested by the client.
