Dog Sitting Grand Junction

“We have 2 dogs that have very different needs and personalities. They adjusted quickly to Robin and she did a great job taking care of them. I felt completely confident leaving them in her care. Plan on employing her again!”

“Patricia is an excellent communicator and very dependable. She was very kind and loving to our pups. She played frisbee with our very energetic Border Collies, took them for walks, and on a day when it was too hot for frisbee, she spent time playing with them indoors. The younger pup was having a difficult time with his first-ever overnight without his people. She gave him extra loving care. I would highly recommend Patricia.”

“Lauren has been an excellent cat sitter. Super responsive via rover chat and very attentive to my written list of cat needs. She even offered to split a 1 hour visit into two 30-min visits when she sensed my nervousness about leaving my cats for so long. She has been great about keeping me updated and sending pics. I feel very comfortable with my pets in her care.”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and currently have both a Golden Retriever and a cat of my own, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and providing walks, playtime, fetch, feeding, potty breaks, companionship, and plenty of attention. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I know how much peace of mind it gives me to know my own pets are with someone who will genuinely care for them, not just check in on them. I’m dependable, attentive, and will take the time to learn your pet’s normal routine so they can feel as comfortable and cared for as possible. I’m also very detail-oriented when it comes to following feeding schedules, household instructions, exercise routines, and any special preferences you have for your pet. Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and will treat your pets with the same affection and care that I give my own. I currently have a very flexible schedule while I work on my graduate degree, which gives me availability throughout the day to care for your pet as much as needed. I’m able to accommodate walks, potty breaks, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of companionship. Having this flexibility also allows me to spend quality time with your pet rather than simply stopping by and rushing through their care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I take the time to learn each pet’s normal routine, personality, boundaries, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, feeding routines, and anything else that helps keep your pet safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both their space and their established routine so they can remain in an environment that feels familiar to them. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy, or anything else that may seem unusual, and I believe in keeping owners updated so they can feel confident that their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away.

“Katie is amazing and went out of her way to check on our kitty and keep us informed when he wasn’t well while we were out of town! We appreciate her so much!”

About: **I’ve got you with the photo/text updates ALWAYS** I’ve taken care of ALL types of animals (pets, exotic, farm, reptiles, birds) since I was a little kid! I partially grew up on a farm, and have lots of experience handling and caring for animals. I have no issues with breaking up animal conflict, administering medication, and am hardworking individual. I currently am the proud mother of one leopard gecko and cat! Please reach out for any pet needs! Let’s set it up! Let’s communicate! I am an athletic trainer at the university. My schedule can be a bit chaotic, so jobs that are requested at least 1-2 weeks in advance will work the best for us. I have a flexible day to day schedule, but would NOT be appropriate for families who need constant care/oversight. I would love to talk more about setting up dates/times that work for us and your pet!!!! When I am housesitting, I make sure to try and maintain as normal of a schedule, environment, and atmosphere as possible. I maintain respectful boundaries to the animal — as it is their house too!

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. From energetic puppies and senior dogs to shy cats and everything in between, I’ve developed a calm, intuitive approach that helps pets feel safe and loved in their own environment. I also take great pride in keeping homes clean, secure, and peaceful while you’re away, and I always provide updates so you never have to wonder how your pets are doing. Your animals (and your home!) are in good hands with me. I work two part time jobs. Sometimes I work doubles but usually have an hour break so that I can check on pets. I am happy to stay at your house if that makes you feel more comfortable. I always match the energy and needs of the pets I care for, whether they’re in the mood to play, need time to adjust, or just want a quiet treat. I also make sure to follow all care instructions and routines set by the owner to keep pets happy and stress-free.

“Stacy always does an excellent job with Lacy. She even got Lacy to wear her backpack vest, which I've been trying, unsuccessfully, to get her to wear for over a year. I'll have to figure out what bribe she uses. Thanks Stacy!”

About: I stand out by giving pets real attention and care, not just basic sitting. I’m reliable, calm, and good with different personalities, and I make sure every pet feels safe and loved. I’m currently not working another job, so I have open availability and can dedicate my time to providing reliable and consistent care for your pets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I always follow instructions closely, keep a calm and clean environment, and make sure pets are secure and well cared for at all times.

“What a relief to have found Melanie! She is always on time, extremely polite and we felt like she loved our pups as much as we do. She did a wonderful job!”

“Robbie is a reliable and kind pet sitter. We were at a rental house and our dogs were anxious. So, Robbie stayed with them when we went to a concert and dinner. It was great peace of mind. He’s great with dogs and was super friendly and conscientious.”

About: I’ve taken care of my own dog for 8 years now, for the past 4 years I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes for neighbors and friends consistently. I’m currently in school, so I can drop by between classes. I’m available before 9 am every day, and available between 10-12 and after 3 pm Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I’m also available after 2 on Tuesday, and 1 on Thursday. I treat every home and pet with care and respect, making sure your pet feels safe. I also follow routines and details very closely to make sure your pet receives the best care!

“We had to leave our boys for an extended period of time for the first time and we were very nervous about it. Anastasia took such good care of them and sent us some amazing pictures! We did not worry about them at all!!! They were so relaxed when we got home. We would definitely use Anastasia again to take care of Papi and Noodles!”

About: As an animal lover, I've grown up with cats, dogs, fish, and reptiles. I'm quiet and gentle with every pet I meet, and have an eye for detail and commitment to routine. I currently teach part-time at CMU on Mondays and Wednesdays from 1-6, and am available most mornings and evenings outside of that for any pet needs. I'm usually up around 6:30am for a walk, so early morning routines and dog walking are welcome. My 2 cats are spoiled but healthy and well behaved. They've got several bowls of water, and are fed 3 times a day, and have plenty of space to lounge, perch, and play - including a cat wheel for zoomies. I've got a crested gecko and 3 frogs as well, in bioactive terrariums with automated lights and misting systems for reliable humidity. In terms of treatment, I'm very gentle and want the best for every pet - a calm demeanor helps when trimming nails or giving meds, and playing with toys instead of hands builds safe habits. While I might be new to you and your pet's life, I'm great about maintaining routine and comfort so that I cause as minimal stress as possible.

About: I have cared for my own pets for decades. I have sat with dogs from puppies to seniors. I love to calm their nerves and give them tactile care. I am currently retired and this has been goal for years to spend these years caring for others loved ones (pet) so they can travel. I lost my beloved Willis in June and decided to care for others pets to bring some joy I will be caring for pets in their own environment and will follow the owners instructions as to their care and safety. Any special needs will be followed per the owners instructions. My Willis was blind and diabetic for the last five years of his life.

About: I have taken care of pups and pets my whole life. I have always had more than one pet in the house at all times. I have taken care of neighbors, friends, loved ones pets. From lizards to chinchillas and all the dogs in between! I can walk, hike, bathe, feed, and cuddle pets whenever needed. I am pretty active and like to get out with the dogs everyday, whether that's for a hike or walk around the block, they need leg stretchers just like I do! It is second nature to take care of a pet. Their needs are always satisfied before mine. Happy pet, happy life! I am a working professional hoping to keep up my mental health while helping the local community members with their busy lives as well! I am available to take your pup on the weekends and likely take them on my adventure to the mountains too and during the work week, I can take them on walks after work or make sure they get some loving for overnight stays. I have a fenced yard. I am always sure to check for anything pets can get into. I am always hyper aware of pets to make sure they don't themselves in trouble.

“Natalie did a great job with our two cats for several days while we were away. She sent plenty of photos each day and even came over a few days before the cat sitting started to get a feel for the cats and the house. We’re looking forward to working with Natalie again and would recommend her to anyone!!”

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for pets throughout my life, including cats growing up and currently two dogs of my own. I’m very familiar with daily care routines such as feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and behavior monitoring. I enjoy being active with dogs through walks and play, whether that’s structured walks, backyard play, or just giving them attention and enrichment so they stay happy and stimulated. I understand that every pet has different energy levels and needs, and I adjust care accordingly. I’m also comfortable with basic pet care needs, including administering oral medications and supporting pets with special routines or recovery needs, as long as it falls within standard, non-veterinary care guidelines. I’m very detail-oriented and always follow instructions closely to make sure pets stay safe, comfortable, and on schedule. Overall, I’m confident with both dogs and cats of all temperaments and prioritize calm, consistent, and reliable care so pets feel secure while their owners are away.

I work mon- Thursday so I'm free friday- Sunday afternoon o care for your animals Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is always keeping them safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine as much as possible. In my home, pets will have a calm, clean environment with supervision and plenty of attention. I maintain a structured routine with feeding, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. I also have two friendly dogs, so visiting pets will be in a real home setting with normal household activity, and I always make sure introductions and space are managed safely. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions exactly as provided, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, litter box care, and any special routines. I’m respectful of the home, keep things tidy, and make sure pets feel secure and not disrupted while their owners are away. In both settings, I pay close attention to behavior and health changes and communicate updates so owners always know how their pets are doing.
