House Sitting in Gunnison

“Kaitlyn goes above and beyond caring for our fur babies and home. We were able to fully enjoy our vacation knowing she was caring for our girls. The daily updates are the best part giving us something to look forward to when we were missing them.”

“Hope was a wonderful, professional, and detailed pet sitter. Autumn was basking in the sun happy as a clam when I got home. Autumn has some anxiety and doggy boarding is very stressful for her so it is great to be able to know she is at home way more comfortable and well taken care of. I will definitely be hiring Hope again.”

About: My partner and I have been working with animals since we were kids. Emily grew up on a farm and has raised all sorts of animals, including showing horses. My father is a veterinarian, so I grew up around animals and worked in the kennels while I was in school. We're comfortable dealing with various behavior quirks, giving medications, and we've always got vet advice on call if an emergency were to arrive. My partner and I work at the hospital, but we have slightly different shifts. There are usually only 1-2 days per week where one of us isn't home. When we are both at work, our shifts are staggered enough that we can get home every 4 hours, in addition to morning and evening walks. We are both extremely active people, so our dogs get multiple hours of walking/hiking every day when we're not working. We have an acre of land with two separate fenced-in yard sections, which gives us the ability to divide dogs of various sizes, or those who may be timid/hesitant around others. The lower level of our house has a separate entrance, so there's ample indoor space as well when the weather is too hot/cold to be outside. Pets will be indoors any time that we are not at the house to directly supervise. We walk our dogs multiple times per day, and have trail system access 50m from the house, so we're not reliant on just leaving dogs in the yard for outdoor stimulation.

About: I’ve been watching animals for about 10 years. I have experience in almost everything from walking dogs, animal sitting in my home and others, play dates, grooming and anything else you can think of! I’m a lover of all animals of all shapes and sizes and enjoy spending time with new pet friends ! I am currently working full time at a local doctors office but have an hour lunch break as well as time in the morning before and after work to check on and care for any animals! I am off on weekends which is when I spend most of my time with pets that I am watching. I have a fenced yard with high enough fencing to avoid any lost animals. While in a clients home, I always keep an eye on the pet when they are outside or wondering.

About: I am very experienced with both dogs and cats as I grew up with two cats and a dog (a very big dog). I feel very comfortable with all animals and understand the importance of giving your pet a tons of love and care! I have a super flexible schedule so I can make sure your pet gets whatever it needs. I recently started watching other people’s dogs and I a think both me and the pup have been enjoying it! I am currently working part time, I typically work Monday-Wednesday from 8:30-4:30 in Crested Butte. Other than that I am completely available to give your pet any attention and care it needs. I love hanging out with animals so I will be completely available to give your pet any and all of my attention! I currently am in between housing so I personally can’t house any animals but I have a car so I can take you pup on some great hiking adventures! I tend to be very cautious and make sure I understand a pet’s temperament and what they need to feel safe and comfy!

“Mahlia was flexible, sent pictures and updates during the stay, and overall was friendly and professional. Plus my dog really seemed to like her!”

“Charlotte was the best dog sitter I have used on Rover. She went above and beyond to watch my two dogs Timber and Moose while staying at my house while I went on vacation for 10 days. She was very good at communicating with me about how things were going and put me at ease with pictures and updates. When I came back home both the dogs were happy to see me and seemed so stress free and happy like I had barely been gone. Charlotte took them on long walks and runs and kept my house very clean for my return. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, kind hearted, and knowledgeable person to look after their pets and/or home!”

“Alexandria is the BEST!! She is very accommodating, I had to alter my days with her and she was able to still keep my CoCo Melon. If you want a true dog whisperer she is the one. Coco instantly took to her. Thaaaaaank You! You’re the BEST! I’m will definitely book with you for my next trip.”

About: I have been dog walking and pet sitting overnight for many years. I have a golden retriever and we love making new pet friends with all of our clients. Snuggles always included! We can go on several on-leash walks daily and work on leash walking skills. I work part time so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pets. I am available daily walks and check-ins, as well as for overnight pet sitting any night of the week! You just tell me how you like your pets to be cared for and I’ll do exactly that! Hopefully they like golden retrievers so I can bring my dog along for more play time!

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was around 10 years old. I’ve always loved caring for animals more than any other hobby. My pets have a very special place in my heart. I am able and willing to watch puppies, kittens, and senior animals. I have a large lab mix who is about 11 that I have thoroughly enjoyed caring for and loving my whole life. I also have 3 cats who I love to spend time with and give attention to. I’ve also cared for geckos, hamsters, chickens, fish and other small animals. Im currently in between jobs, I travel to Colorado every winter to work for a ski resort where I operate ski lifts. Pet care fits into my routine very easily right now, as I’m doing house/pet-sitting full time while in between jobs. When I am caring for pets in my own home I will watch your animals carefully and care for all of their needs. I have a huge wooded yard with access to lots of leashes and 2 small crates. In a clients home, I would do exactly what the client needs/wants and will always respect your property. Some things I offer are feeding, walking, exercising, playing with, washing, cleaning up after, and many more activities depending on what my client requires.

About: I’ve had dogs and/ or cats my whole life. I love caring for puppies/kittens all the way to seniors. I can give them the care they require. I love our furry pets! I am Gunnison homeowner for over 40 years and now retired. I have the time, energy, and desire to accompany your pet anytime. I am able to care for your pet in the way they are accustomed at your home. If staying with me, I have a fenced yard and a large home and a small Aussie named “Banjo” for them to play with. We can go for walks, to the doggie park, or just stay home.

About: I’m a former vet tech with 12 years of pet and house sitting experience. I’m reliable, caring, and comfortable with meds, seniors, and pets needing extra attention. I currently work part-time/remotely so I can be around as much as needed for your pets. My schedule is currently open for any overnights and weekends. When pets are in my care, I’m very attentive to their comfort and well-being. Depending on their needs, we’ll enjoy walks, cuddles, or quiet time. I’m there to cater to them fully and make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed.

“Miles was amazing. Great communication, super reliable, and incredibly helpful with a last minute request. He left everything spotless and took great care of Sienna. Will definitely book again.”

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: I have taken care of pets since I moved back to CO and love to get back to helping out families and their pets too. I am currently working part time. My job allows breaks to run home if need be and if not dogs are welcome at my work place. I don’t have a yard but love walking or going to the park. I am willing to stay at a client’s home as well too.
