House Sitting Galeton

“Dillon was amazing with my 4 beasts. He was able to help me out last minute and went above and beyond taking the dogs on individual walks. They were very happy when I got home. His dog Bucky was so sweet and patient with my dogs, they can be a little overwhelming. I was so happy my dogs were in safe hands.”

About: Hi there!! My name is Jillian, but you can call me Jill for short. I’ve had animals all my life, from horses, dogs, and cats all the way down to guinea pigs, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I have two cats of my own, one of whom is special needs, so I understand that every pet has unique personalities and needs. I am equally a dog person as I am a cat person, and everything in between! Thank you for considering me as your pet’s step-in mom, and I hope to meet you and your furry friend(s) soon!! I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule, which I know many people aren’t fortunate to have. Whether you need someone to stop by and let your pup out while you’re at work or care for your kitties while you’re away, I’m your go-to gal! I have 2 cats that live in my apartment, and at this time I am not available for boarding in my home, just drop in visits.

“Austin was great with Hoban. She exceeded all expectations, was very communicative, and kept our house clean. We look forward to working with Austin again soon!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! 🐾 She stayed at our house while we were away and took absolutely amazing care of our dogs. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were comfortable in their own home and getting so much attention. She sent tons of photos and updates, which we loved seeing while we were gone. Our dogs got plenty of playtime every day, especially their favorite game of chuckit multiple times a day! You could tell they were happy, exercised, and well cared for the whole time. Our house was also in great shape when we got back, which we really appreciated. We’re so grateful for the care and attention she gave our pups and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring. We will definitely be booking with her again! 🐶”

“Our two goldens can be quite the handful but I knew they were in good hands with you for the week! You’re always so responsive and great about sending pictures and updates for peace of mind. Cant recommend Mckinnley enough if you need someone to stay with your pups!!”

About: I have cared for my own pets. I help my family care for their animals on the farm. I have adopted all my dogs. I helped my newest dog through health issues and helped him become better socialized I currently work a job that provides a lot of flexibility. I am available most afternoons and evenings. I can be available to care for your pets almost any time My home has a spacious office upstairs or also a basement where your fur baby can hang out alone, or they can be with my 2 friendly dogs. I have lots of parks near my house that I enjoy walking my own two dogs in. We also enjoy going to the local dogs park, happy to take any social dogs there too.

“Great communication and my dogs absolutely loved her! The house was in amazing shape when I got back as well. I can’t wait to go out of town again and know my dogs will be in good hands!”

About: I professionally worked with dogs for 3 years and have experience working with all types of dogs large and small, high energy and mellow, social and shy. I’m well acquainted with administering medication orally and topically. High quality photos during our time will also be provided :) It’s a priority of mine to respect your home and leave your home just as it was when you left and with a happy dog when you return! NOTE: I do not accept 90+ lb dogs that are known to pull/get riled up by environmental factors. I am pretty small myself so I cannot safely handle such dogs. This is for the safety of both your pup and me! Thanks for checking my profile! As of now, I am currently unemployed and Rover is my main gig. That means more time and availability for you and your pup! If this changes it will be reflected here. I will always treat your home and your pet with utmost care and respect. ❤️ I’m in tune with reading dog behavior and language and can adjust my manner to whatever is needed to make your pet comfortable and happy.

About: I have plenty of toys, time, and space for your pet to play, relax, and feel comfortable. Whether they need attention, outdoor time, or a calm spot to unwind, I always follow their routine and make sure they feel safe, cared for, and right at home during their stay. I’m currently working part‑time, so I have plenty of time to give your pets attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding on weekends and for walks or drop‑ins on. I also will take last minute bookings. Your pet’s routine will always come first! I take safety seriously and always make sure pets feel comfortable in my care. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I follow your pet’s routine and needs closely. I can give them love and affection, keep a clean environment, and give your pet a calm, safe space where they feel loved and secure.

About: Pets are not just animals, they’re part of the family! Whenever I take care of an animal, I like to see myself in their… paws. I think to myself how I’d want to be treated, and make sure they get the best treatment possible. All through my life I have taken care of all of my pets from fish, to cats and dogs, and even moths and butterflies! Back home in Minnesota, I used to take care of two cats, Lucky and Gnocchi, which Gnocchi is now in the loving care of my grandparents, and Lucky has been watching from above for more than a few years now. I later took care of my cat, Foxy, who has since joined Lucky and both are watching my progress from above. Now, my dog Bailey is at home with two kittens, Ava and Johnny, who are currently being cared for by my mom. I miss my fluffy friends back home, and would love to make some new ones around the area! I currently have a part-time job at Raising Cane’s in Loveland, and I’m trying my best to keep my Rover schedule updated with my work schedule. I’m free for care all week, save for the hours I am at work, but I am always willing to drop in or stay over should the situation call for it. I’m willing to house-sit full-time, but I will need at least two weeks of notice in order to take the correct days off of work. Safety has always been my number one priority no matter what job I have been given. Risks and shortcuts are something I barely even know how to do, and instructions on what the owners want the sitter to do with their pets are the only thing that will be followed (along with basic common sense of course). I am readily available to read your pet’s emotions and figure out their needs from only a few little body language changes, and I will always give them the love and care that they deserve.

“Jessica is fantastic! We received updates about the dogs, our house was taken care of, everything and more! We will be using Jessica again. Thank you so much.”

“Robin was phenomenal and made us feel at ease while we were out of town. Our pup was completely comfortable with her, and we came home to a spotless house. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again if/when she's available!”

“Coral was patient and sweet with our pups, who get anxious around new people. She took good care of them (and my son’s geckos) and we came home to a clean house. Thank you!”

About: Professional dog trainer with extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments, offering calm, reliable, and structured care tailored to each dog’s unique needs and routine. Caring for dogs is already part of my everyday life, so your pet will seamlessly fit into a routine that prioritizes structure, enrichment, and calm, attentive care. Safety is my top priority. Dogs are cared for in a calm, controlled environment with a fully fenced yard, thoughtful supervision, and crating available when appropriate or requested.

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, and large animals like horses for many years both personally and in professional setting. I love working with animals and even have a degree in animal behavior. I am a full time graduate student in Animal Sciences at CSU. I have flexible daytime availability and am available evenings and weekends as well. I can be available for overnight stays as well. I have an 8 year old dog at home! I can care for pets who are friendly to dogs in my home, but all others in yours! I really enjoy taking dogs on walks both my own and others.

About: I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, plants, and more! I’m very detail oriented and will follow all instructions to a tea to ensure your baby is taken care of! I’m very flexible. I can do overnight stays or just drop ins during the day. I’m a student in school, so my summer is super open and my school year I can still fit in watching your fur babies with just a little more of a restricting schedule. I have two dogs who I love dearly. I make sure to give them lots of cuddles and play with them. If I was in your home I would give your pets all the loves and make sure they aren’t lonely without their person.

“Dana and her partner were great with Angus and it was nice to have that extra coverage. They left the place just as I had left it and even picked up dog poop, which I think is very nice. There were 2 things that stuck me as odd closer to the booking when there were some scheduling things brought up, since they work together they were able to make sure my dog got his meds. I would also have liked to be asked if they could make a duplicate key first or I could have given them one. Overall I would hire them again.”

Cara M.

“Allison stayed with my dogs for a few days and showed them so much love and attention. She kept me informed with updates while I was away, which meant a lot to me. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals, and my dogs seemed very comfortable with her.”

Bridget

“Rory was fantastic! 11ish days with my temperamental chi and his 4 kitties... I will definitely be keeping her on my shortlist for future trips! Rory sent pics and videos during my trip to help ease my anxiety of being away from the babies. I can tell my brood had a good experience!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs throughout my life and have grown up with family pets since I was young. Through years of daily pet care, I’ve gained experience with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, routines, giving attention, and recognizing when pets need extra care or patience. I’m dependable, organized, and take responsibility seriously. As a recent high school graduate preparing to study abroad this fall, I’m looking to help local families by providing attentive and reliable pet care throughout the summer. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I work to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’ve grown up helping care for our family dog for many years. I’m used to planning around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and making sure pets receive attention throughout the day. This summer I have a flexible schedule outside of my part-time work, which allows me to provide dependable care and communicate consistently with pet owners. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so regular walks and quality time with pets fit well into my routine. I understand how important consistency is for animals and do my best to maintain each pet’s normal schedule and routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their usual routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walk routines, bathroom breaks, medication instructions (if applicable), and any house rules. I also make sure owners receive updates and photos so they feel connected while away. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, calm environment with supervision, regular potty breaks, exercise, water access, and lots of attention. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and comfort level and adjust activities to what helps them feel relaxed. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel comfortable, respected, and confident in my care.
