“Do not hesitate to bring Brad and Artichoke into your home to care for your fur babies, plant babies and home! Brad is one of the most gentle, genuine human beings you will meet. He and Artie stayed for 10 days with our Shephsky Tripawd, one senior kitty that needed extra TLC, and one 10 year old kitty who is very bossy. All thrived under his care. Lots of walks for Orion, our dog, with buddy, Artie. Lots of extra TLC for our geriatric kitty who has kidney disease. All plants were healthy. Our home was immaculate when we returned home…sheets & towels washed and bed remade. Family guests are not as thoughtful as Brad.”
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 a sweet, energetic, laid-back, one and a half year old mini poodle. I also have a 3 year old hedgehog, but since he’s nocturnal and likes to keep to himself, pets don’t interact with him. He’s caged in my room and will be out of the way. 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.
“All I can say is 'Wow'! Jamie is wonderful and went above and beyond. We came home to happy, calm puppies. During our time away, Jamie gave us a daily status that allowed us to really enjoy our time away. Thank you, Jamie!”
“Cassidy was responsive and helpful and easy to communicate with. She watched our dogs and home for 5 days and did a great job with two big and very active dogs, one who is a 2 year old and needs some energy and management. The house was clean and in order upon return. Would hire again!”
“Shawna was amazing! Her communication was fantastic, she was extremely flexible with our changing schedule, and most importantly she took GREAT care of our pup. I wish we had her in our home town, and would book her again in an instant for our next trip to the area.”
“We couldn't have left our pets, and our home, in better hands! We had a good feeling when Samantha stopped by for a meet n greet and our Molly took to her immediately. She's normally very shy and standoffish at first so it was particularly remarkable that she had no hesitation with Samantha at all. While we were gone Samantha kept us updated with daily reports and photos of our babies. When we arrived home (hours later than agreed, due to airline delays), the house was spotless and the animals were all happy & healthy. From now on, whenever we need house/pet sitting services she will be our first choice!”
“This is the second time Julia has stayed with our dog Freya while we went away, and I know that Freya just loves her. Julia takes such good care of her, sends us updates and photos, and even offered to stay late if our flight got delayed. She is the best dog sitter by far we've ever had for Freya!”
About: I was raised to care for animals—especially dogs—and it's something I’ve carried with me throughout my life. With years of personal experience as a dog companion and time spent volunteering at shelters, I’ve developed a deep love for dogs and a natural ability to connect with them. If I could, I’d adopt an older pup at the local Buena Vista shelter today! But with a busy 9–5 schedule, I know I can’t currently provide the full-time attention a dog deserves. That said, I’m 23, new to Chaffee County, living in Poncha Springs and working in Buena Vista—and I’d love to help you care for your pup. Whether it’s taking your dog out for a walk, giving them a fun day away while you're at work, or just helping out during a landlord inspection, I’m ready. My goal is to build community and make animal loving friends! The extra cash is nice, but connecting you and your pup are more important. This varies based on what special needs your pup may have. I'm ready to do the extra walks, the special feeding schedule, or medications if you show me before hand how to do it!
“Chelsea was so wonderful! She sent lots of photos and updates. She was a champ with our special needs dog who requires injections twice a day. Handling three dogs can be a lot (especially when one is a new puppy) but she made it look easy. She also took great care of our home. We will definitely invite Chelsea back in the future! So glad to have made this connection.”
“Christine is a fantastic sitter. She is very communicative and thoughtful and we felt safe leaving our dog for 5 nights with her at our home. She kept the place super clean and our dog was obviously well cared for. Highly recommend Christine!”

Renata S.
“Renata lives on a ranch and my dogs love to stay with her. They have the best time running on the 100 acres and are safe at night sleeping next to her bed. This is her full time job so my dogs get all her attention. I have a puppy too, she treats him like the sweet baby he is. He is loved and safe. He loves playing with all the other dogs on the ranch. I totally trust her with all 5 of my dogs. They just love her too!!!”

Emily M.
“I can’t say enough about the wonderful care Emily provided for our two dogs. Emily is so trustworthy that she lived in our house and cared for our dogs for many 2-5 week stays over multiple years while we traveled. She genuinely loves dogs, and her attentiveness and mindfulness about their unique personalities and needs was evident. She communicated with us while we were away which was always so encouraging. We were sad when Emily moved out of CA. If you’re interviewing dog-sitters or dog-walkers, look no further. Emily is a real GEM!”
Ann C.
“Ann has been an incredible house and pet sitter for me for years! She has the ability to perform more complicated pet care needs such as injections, feeding regeminets, and medications. I had a diabetic cat that required 2x daily insulin injections and Ann is reliable and consistent. Ann has helped care for my (furry) family for many years so that my human family and I could enjoy camping, vacations and trips with peace of mind. She has cared for the zoo that I keep, including dogs, cats, fishtanks, houseplants and gardens for years. He availability and love of animals has truly made our lives more enjoyable. I don't plan a vacation without checking with Ann first!! Thanks Ann!! -Kayla M.”
