“Brooke is amazing! She is so sweet, and took amazing care of our home and our pets. Our dog, Peaches, adores her and it was obvious that she loved Peaches and spent a great deal of time with her while we were gone. She left the house clean and kept us updated throughout our weekend away. We have a trip planned next year, and we've already asked her to see if her schedule is open to sit for us again. If you're looking for someone to trust to stay with your pets while you're away, Brooke is awesome. I'm grateful to have found her.”


“Trisha was kind, communicative, and the pups loved her! She was easy to trust and seemed to truly care about our fur babes. We absolutely recommend her. Thank you for taking care of the home and being such a wonderful dog sitter, Trisha.”

About: I have grown up taking care of numerous animals, including inside dogs and hunting dogs, bearded dragons, fish, cats, birds, etc. I also frequently pet sit for friends and family when needed, and have been doing so for years! ❤️ I am currently working part time, usually from 4:30-9:30 throughout the week and on Saturdays (besides Mondays). I am also in school at CSU, but classes are over for the Summer 😊 I have a fenced in backyard with a lot of room to run and play as well as a friendly poodle to keep your babies company (they can be easily separated if needed) !! At clients homes, it varies depending on the client’s request. However, I do love going outside with the dogs as well as being cuddled up watching tv with them☺️
About: I’ve been pet sitting since forever. I have multiple animals of my own seeing as I have a farm and love to add animals to it. I’m currently in school get my bachelors in health science and associates in business, but luckily as of right now I am online so free all the time when im not babysitting/nannying. I’m looking for more opportunities to pet sit since I love animals and have all summer completely free. I am able to take your fur babies on long walks and fun trips to the park to play. I will love and treat your fur babies as if they are my own. I have a very secure environment as I live in a house on my parents property with them. It’s 30 acres so lots of land to take walks on with the pets. I have experience with all animals aging from young to senior animals. I also have experience with other animals if you have any including rabbits, chickens, and ducks of all ages.
“Rebecca made Axel feel right at home and she took great care of him! Axel was shy at first but warmed up quickly and did not want to leave when it was time to pick him up. She provided regular updates and pictures on how Axel was doing. She was very flexible with pickup and drop off times. I would 100% recommend Rebecca and will with rebook her in the future.”

About: I’ve been asked to pet sit for a variety of pets over the years. Anywhere from cats and dogs to bearded dragons and horses! I’m a quick learner and can adapt just as fast to match whatever needs are required. I also own a mixed dog and an orange tabby cat myself. I am a newly wed who recently moved into town and am still getting settled. Until I get connected with my work, I have a TON of free time! I’d love to get to be surrounded by fur babies as much as possible! I love to let the critters set the pace when getting to know me. I believe there needs to be an established bond of trust before anything else. And I LOVE to love on them once they let me! I can never get enough pets and snuggles! I want them to feel as though I’m a friend and family member rather than a stranger. And the same goes for their human parents too! I love to connect with my clientele and keep them updated as much as possible to ensure they feel confident that their babies are taken care of :)
About: I’ve taken care of many many family owned pets since I was a little kid. They are just like family! I know they stole your heart, let them steal mine too. I am self employed currently, doing doordash and babysitting. I have more than plenty of time to come and spoil your fur babies with love and treats. You can feel safe with your fur babies with me. I provide nothing but the best of care. Overall your pets will get all of my attention and kept happy with lots of play time, loving, and treats!
“We were so worried to leave our pups in the care of a stranger, but Kealey showed us that we had nothing to worry about! She was punctual, attentive and considerate with all my very different personality pups. She sent videos and pictures just to let us know how they were doing throughout the day and made sure the house was tidy when we got home. I know our dogs are glad to see us, but I have a feeling they miss her already!! We will definitely be booking with her again.”


About: I have always had cats and dogs since childhood. I also have babysat Chickens, gerbils, and even fish. Pets are part of a family and deserve the best care . I am a stay at home mom to a teenager and have open availability at this moment. Being Type A I like to know ahead of time but I can adapt pretty well I will care for the pets at their home only and will follow instructions to a tee. I can walk them wherever . I am open
“This was our first time using a dog sitter, and we were a bit nervous considering it’s 6 barking Schnauzers- but Kamy exceeded our expectations! From the start, she was very presentable and professional, super friendly, and very attentive to all our pups needs. We received regular updates, pictures, and messages- which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to our pups very happy, well-cared for, and clearly loved. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter! She was very trustworthy, responsive, and caring. We felt completely at ease leaving our pups in her care. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter, and we WILL be using her services again.”

“Jayden is amazing!! She took great care of our German Shepard and two kitties! I appreciate her so much and will be using her again! She sent us so many pictures and updates we felt so comfortable leaving.”


About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have never met one I did not adore. Many friends choose me to care for their loved ones when they are away. My schedule revolves around maintaining activity levels and better functional training for my pets and yours. Health and happiness make for longer life spans for our babies. I am a registered nurse with previous law enforcement experience, safety is something I am very big on and integrity is something I was raised on.
About: I have taken care of animals since the age of 12. I have experience with a wide range of pets including ,but not limited to cats, horses, small dogs ranging from chihuahua, Yorkie, and pomeranian. To larger dogs like German shepherds, Rottweiler, pitbulls, and great Pyrenees hurding dogs. I also have a history of equestrian work with horses so it's made it easier to handle larger dogs. All pets deserve to be pampered and treated like family. Every time no excuse. I am a stay at home mom so I have no schedule to work around. I am available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. How each pet is treated will heavily depend on the owners wants and the pets needs. I will do my absolute best to keep any discussed expectations met. And I will always make sure I do what I can to help the pet have fun and be safe and comfortable. And for house sitting my goals are to meet all expectations discussed before hand and make someone's life just a bit easier .
“Lauren was AMAZING! Gave our animals the TLC they needed when we were away which is rare! She went above and beyond spending time with them, keeping us in the loop!!!! I highly recommend her!”


About: I have worked with dogs and cats for 15 years with a mixture of professional (pet resort, vet, and foster volunteer for rescue organizations) as well as personal (pet owner). I promote safety and the well-being of pets first and foremost and can accommodate any of your loved ones' needs. I am trained as a vet tech and newly RN graduate, almost any medical condition I feel confident I can address and provide care for. I am a firm believer that you can tell a lot about a person by the way they treat animals and i have always treated mine as not just a pet, but a family member. About this sitter: I wanted to add this service for those parents concerned with the anxiety that comes along with being left. I firmly believe that sticking to your pet's routine and environment helps decrease any unneeded stress. I am well trained in animal behavior (I have worked at a veterinary clinic/hospital for 3+ years) and medical aid should anything arise or your pet has medical needs. Any questions? Please ask! If my availability does not work for you, please let me know and we might be able to make things work depending on the details. I currently work SUPER part-time, meaning only 4.5 hours a day, 2-3 times a week. No earlier than 0845 and no later than 6 pm. I have a rhodesian ridgeback of mine own who is very comfortable around any dog breed or age as she has been to dog parks and around other dogs all her life. She is 10 yo and very mellow but also gets spurts of energy where she will engage in play. I think her mellow demenor allows other pets to feel comfortable. I have two enclosed dog play areas outdoors as well. In a client's home, I can set up a pet camera that a client can access (this will need to be done prior to the client leaving and will be taken once the care is over) and will honor your schedule and instructions. In addition, I will send you all the pictures or videos that you would like!
