About: I walk all types of dogs at the Humane Society of Boulder Valley as a volunteer. HSBV provides training modules that can help advance my skills. Since I'm retired, I'm available almost every day except Mondays and Tuesdays at this time. My schedule is flexible for visits and/or walks to care for your pets. I am a responsible, clean, and organized person. I look forward to meeting your pets and caring for them when you're away or when your schedule doesn't allow pet care.
About: I have had dogs my entire life. I have taken care of puppies, seniors, playful dogs, and reactive and skittish dogs. If needed- I have experience administering medication, training, and bathing dogs of many sizes from a pug to a Great Pyrenees. Having grown up with some reactive dogs, I understand the importance of being able to read and understand body language- so if you have an anxious dog, rest assured they are in good hands! I am a full time student with lots a free time, especially on the weekends. I am busy MWF 2:30-4:30, and TTh 5:00-6:30. Other than that, my schedule is very flexible! I am happy to stop by just to feed them/let them out for a potty break, or stay for a few hours to hangout with them/play/take them on a walk. I am open to staying overnight if needed. I do not offer boarding.
About: Hi there! I am a firm believer in treating pets like family and showing them nothing but love. My pets can do no wrong in my eyes and I know what it’s like to worry about them when I’m away from home. I am an attentive and caring and have loved having pets my entire life in addition to a few years experience petsitting dogs and cats back in California and Oregon. I also spent time caregiving for the elderly and looking after their pets was a big part of the job. I am open to caring for any type of animal! I am currently a full time student with availability weekday mornings before 9am and afternoons usually after 3:00pm. I can be available anytime throughout the night and full availability on Saturdays and Sundays. I have one sweet older cat living with me in my one bedroom apartment and she’s just a joy to have around. Due to her timid nature, I am unable to bring other pets into my own home for pet sitting but I offer any other service for your pet such as walking, feeding, playing, giving medicine, you name it :)

“Tina has taken care of my goldendoodle dog, Camper, many times. As a mom of three humans and a dog guardian herself, Tina is attentive, nurturing, and highly responsible. You can count on her to be there for your pal- on time and ready to give lots of love and care. My dog has some health issues and Tina is always great about being mindful of his special needs. I believe she has also done some volunteer work at the Boulder Humane Society, an indication that she's a dog lover through and through! Highly recommend!!”
Abigail G.
“Abbie has taken care of our animals for years! She is very reliable and also takes the time to play with the animals, not just feed, etc. Highly recommended!!”
Addisen D.
“There’s no one I trust more to care for my dog when I’m away! Addisen is great with animals and it shows. Her experience with older dogs and cats has been a lifesaver as well as with pets who need some extra playtime. I know my senior dog is in good hands in the case of an emergency (he has a history of epilepsy). She is patient and diligent and I don’t know what I’d do without her!”
