“Allie took wonderful care of our pets. She was able to give our shy cat her medication and made sure everyone was fed and received plenty of attention. We were able to enjoy our time away from home without worry and can’t thank her enough!”

About: I have worked at a dog boarding and grooming facility for over two years. I gained experience with boarding and grooming. I also own 2 dogs and a rabbit. I attend Western University. I am a full time student, but have lots of free time and would love to spend that time around animals. I have always loved animals and take the best care of them. While working with dogs I have learned how to focus on their body language and know if they are comfortable or not. I love helping pets stay happy and healthy in the comfort of their own homes. During home visits, I make sure your pets are fed, have fresh water, and get plenty of playtime and attention. For dog walks, I give your pup safe, fun walks that match their energy level whether that’s a quick potty break or a longer stroll to burn off energy. I always follow your instructions to keep your pets on their normal routine, and I treat every pet like my own.
About: I am a proud pet parent who puts continued time and energy towards understanding, training, entertaining, and exercising my mutt … we love to bring companions along for the ride! A well-cared for boi is a happy, healthy boi. I work full-time M-F at an office near my home. I walk/run/bike/fetch with my pooch twice daily during the week, for a total of 2-3 hours of movement - usually more on the weekend! My schedule can be flexible to accommodate occasional lunch-time walks. In the summer, and at various other points throughout the year, I have the flexibility to work remotely with breaks at will. I do not have a yard but live within walking distance to a popular town trail. Most dogs enjoy people watching from our balcony in nice weather. I am also all for doggie field trips and welcome pooches in my vehicle to hike at Hartman’s, University trails, and the dog park as appropriate.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for 1 year. I currently take care of my neighbors, friends, and families pets. I’ll provide loving care for whatever your pet may need! I am a college student athlete, so I am currently in school and playing my sport. I have a pretty busy schedule, but I can work around it to be with your animals! I am able to stay with your pets for however long you need. I can come in for drop in visits, or walks depending on what they need.
About: I have grown up around pets and livestock my whole life. I have always loved every pet and animal that has come across my path. I even am in school to become a veterinarian! I have taken care of other people’s pets, and always treat them as my own. Willing to give references if ever needed. I have my own pets; and growing up I had the opportunity to raise and care for many different animals and pets. Making my schedule work around the animals is something I completely understand. I have three classes and two labs at WCU. I am done by noon most days, with labs on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 2. This leaves mornings and evenings as well as mid-day completely open. I have a fenced yard and take my own, dog-friendly dogs, on two walks a day which vary in location. I usually try to play fetch at least one of the times we go out, and the walks always last from 30-60 minutes.
“i felt so safe and comfy having Charlotte over to check on my babies, they all seemed to love her. the kitties, my dog, and i give her a sold 10/10 for someone to come in and give your animals love, food, and anything else they need.”

Words blah blah I am a detail oriented person and will leave your home and space exactly how I found it! I ensure your space is safe for your dog and cats before I leave such as moving food away from counter edges and doggy proofing the floor area.
About: I absolutely love spending time and playing with dogs. I have 2 dogs at home in Chicago and I adore them. We go on walks, play catch/fetch outside, go on hikes, and spend lots of time outside. Since I have moved here I am missing so much dog time and would absolutely love the opportunity to meet and spoil your dog in the best ways. I have dog sat and house sat for many people who continue to ask me to dog and house sit when they need it. I am currently employed by a wilderness therapy program where my schedule is 8 days on 6 days off and would love nothing more than to spend time with dogs on my off shift! No matter the age, I am happy to dog sit! I have a 14 year old dog and a 2 year old dog at home, so I have experience with both older dogs and younger dogs.
About: Grew up with a black lab and a miniature dachshund. I work 24 hour shifts as a firefighter so on my days off I am fully available to take care of your pets! I'm excited to meet you and your pets. Our pets need the same thing we do; diet and exercise. I hope I can help your pets stay healthy while you are our busy with your day to day life. I am EMT certified and I am an active individual that enjoys getting exercise for myself and would love to share that with your pets. I love dogs as I grew up with two, but cats are growing on me. I'm excited to meet new friends and dog sit. I usually work 2 days on and 4 days off. So I am available when I am not working. Contact me and let me know what days you are in thinking. I will care for your home and your pets. Just let me know. what the routine is and I will slide in to the routine.
About: It doesn’t matter if it’s dogs, chickens, horses, or kids, all feel comfortable and drawn to me. As a parent and animal lover and experienced caregiver, I bring my maturity, reliability, and professionalism to every client and am adaptable to special needs and circumstances. I am fortunate to spend much of my days outdoors and happily travel between Paonia, Crested Butte and Gunnison. Animals in my care receive dedicated attention and ample exercise. In my home, I will offer multiple walks, hikes, or runs per day. While in your home, I can accommodate crate training, walks, and hikes- or any special needs or care instructions.
“Nathan is fantastic and took great care of our cat. He is very responsive with his communication and provided many updates and pictures. We will definitely use him again and recommend him highly. Thx.”

About: Hiking, walking, training, playing, or cuddling - no problem! I work remotely so when your pup is under my care, they're with me 100% of the time! No errands or work to juggle. Plus, my pups are awesome playmates! I work remotely so my pet care is simple, I'm with the pups all day and all night. Potty times are frequent, daily walkabouts are necessary, playtime is alternated with my professional computer time, meal time is morning and night, and bed time is sunset. I am able to make myself at home anywhere, very easily. So my home routine is the same wherever I go. Of course, client preferences may alter this routine.
