“Britney did an amazing job! My dogs are very shy and were nervous at first, but warmed up to her by the end of the visit. Will be using her again! Thank you Britney!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was young. Also I’be work at different vet clinics through my life.so I have the experience to take care of your animals in best way possible. I’m currently a bather at my clinic so if baths and nail trims is something you want added on that is something I can do for you as well. I do work during the week but have weekends off and if it close to work during the week I can stop by during my breaks to play and let them out to potty. I have my own furry babies that are super friendly to play with if you want that environment or they can have my divided attention.
“Shawna was fantastic with our dogs and cats, she has a very calm and relaxing demeanor which I think helps the dogs having someone new take care of them.She was very informative while we were gone on what was going on and how they were doing. Would definitely recommend having Shawna take care of your animals!”

About: I’ve had dogs all my life! I grew up taking turns potty training, walking and trick training our dogs. I also have experience bottle feeding puppies. I have partial experience caring for senior fur babies. I also have partial experience giving oral medication. I know some dogs have their own preferences for medicine taking, whether with cheese, meat or peanut butter. Just let me know what works for them and I’ll do it! We didn’t have our senior dog for very long but I am more than willing to learn what your baby needs and will do whatever it takes to make them happy and comfy! I’m excited to meet, love and care for your pup! I currently work, mostly, full time. Tuesday afternoons and Thursday mornings are my free time during the week, but I am also willing to work before or after work on the other days! Also, my Saturdays are entirely open! I unfortunately cannot offer boarding but I can come to your pet and give them the best care I can! Depending on what your pet needs I can let them out to potty in a fenced yard or I can walk them then crate them after, if called for. I can stay for as long as needed to accommodate their potty break and/or if they need play time or just some company! I will follow whatever schedule you have set up for them!

“Ashely was absolutely great! She not only took great care of my cats but definitely took the time to get to know them, even though they are shy. Kept me informed and provided pictures each day. Definitely recommend!”

About: Aside from taking care of my pups, I have also worked with other family and friends fur babies. My family used to breed Bull Mastives, so newborn pups are not a problem either. I am currently an online college student looking for work. I would love to have this be my only source of income while I finish my studies. I have a very open and flexible, the only non-negotiables are church times! We obviously start with food and water, but we try to do baths at least twice a month. We do daily walks and mobility exercises for our older pup. I love having grooming sessions and making our pups feel like they are the most important thing to walk on earth!
About: I am the proud owner of 3 little Shi Tzu's. My husband travels with his work so there are lots of time I am by myself at home. I would love to help with your fur babies needs. We are a very dependable and honest couple that is originally from Louisiana but have lived in Texas for almost 20 years. My entire life I have had animals of all kinds but mainly dogs. We have had big dogs to very small pets. I have a sister that was a assistant Vet for about 30 years and she has taught me a lot about how to safely care for their health and maintain a good diet and exercise. Love All types of Pets !!! Your pet will be able to run with ours and I take mine outside all throughout the day. If you would prefer them to be created I will provide them with any rules you would normally do at your home. I promise your pet will be loved and cared for as if they were my own.
“Mickenzie treats our fur babies like her own. All three of our babies enjoyed having her around. She is flexible and works with your schedule. She follows every detail for feeding times and makes sure to keep up their routines. The picture updates are thorough and extremely cute. 10/10 would book with her again.”

“Vernelle took great care of our three dogs while we were out of town for a few days. One of my dogs is terrified of of strangers and she did great with her. We got updates and cute pictures and she even brought the mail in for us and washed the dogs bowls. 10/10 would not hesitate to have Vernelle watch the critters again!”

“Alex dropped in on my insulin dependent kitty while I was on vacation. Her updates were very thorough and always included cute photos! I really appreciated the details she sent over and I knew my kitty was in excellent hands, so that I didn't have to worry during my vacation.”

About: I have had a dog or cat in my life for over 5 decades. My parents raised dogs and taught me early in life how to care for pets. My heart has always belonged to some sort of pet from rabbits, guinea pigs to dogs and cats. Big dogs, smaller dogs and everything in between. I have loved them all. I am confident in my love and ability to care for all pets and appreciate my time with them. I feel pets are an essential part of my every day life. I am a Doggie Mama to 3 Basset hounds and a Rat Terrier who thinks he is a Basset hound. Our life is really blessed and very good and we wouldn't change a thing.
“My fur babies are happy and healthy, and Marti was in constant communication with me regarding their care during my week away. Everything went smoothly and I would definitely recommend her to care for any and all fur babies!”

“Christina did a great job taking care of my dog. She even spent extra time with her when she saw my dog was missing me. I would definitely use her again if I need to go out of town.”

About: I have been taking care of cats, dogs, various rodents, and birds since I was old enough to reach the sink to fill their water bowls! My professional dog walking and pet sitting experience began in 2012 when my employer at the time needed someone to watch her three dogs, two birds, and several needy houseplants while her family took a two month long vacation out of the country. I enjoyed the experience so much that I found a pet sitting and dog walking service to work for and was with Mutts of Greenwich for two years before I began to do pet sitting in my hometown of New Canaan, CT. I offered cage and aquarium cleaning services for my clients as well, which they loved! Having moved to Colorado Springs, I look forward to creating a great relationship with new clients (and their owners!) here in town :) As a full-time student with online classes, my schedule is extremely flexible which makes petcare a great fit. I am able to set appointments and do my schoolwork around them. There is nothing like a good walk with a cute doggy to help reset my brain after a hard assignment! My fenced in yard is safe and provides my 3 cats and 1 dog (and multiple squirrel and bird families) with a little piece of heaven. I also love being able to care for my pet friends in their own homes where they are already comfortable and safe! I have cared for ferrets, parrots, guinea pigs, peacocks, rats, hamsters, dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes and even snakes. I am also experienced with giving medications and assisting special needs and elderly dogs and cats.
