“First time using this service. Kaitlyn was very patient and wonderful to explain the app to me. She was prompt and friendly. She’s a natural animal lover and it shows! Will definitely use again.”

About: I grew up with two weimaraners and my family fostered dogs for years (from puppies to senior pups). Now we’ve got a golden doodle named Sunny who just turned 9. Dogs are amazing to work with and if I can make money while doing something fun I think that’s a pretty great deal. I’m actively on a job hunt (I have student teaching in the Fall so just trying to find something for the summer) - that being said if I agree to help out with an animal I will prioritize my agreements! I’ve done babysitting, house sitting and dog sitting for friends and family. My parents raised me keeping a clean house so that’s my default.
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 have 10 years experience including CPR and first aid. I love to house sit because I know how stressful it is to leave a pet home alone or in a kennel. I work remotely allowing me to take my work anywhere and I specialize in dogs with anxious attachment disorders and high need dogs Pet sitting is my full time job. I only accept one housesitting request at a time which allows me to be present for dogs who get nervous with no one around. I always stay at my pet owners homes and am very willing to work my schedule around the pets I care for. I take requests and have dogsat special needs and pups. I do not do more than 1 complimentary meet and greet. Thank you for your understanding
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.
“Maliah was amazing! She is very caring with dogs. She even took extra time out of her day to help with unexpected needs. We'll definitely use her again on our next trip back to Gunnison.”

About: From walks to playtime and snuggles, I love making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved—especially while their family is away. Animals aren’t just a job for me—they’ve always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I am a college student but at home throughout parts of the day. I can take care of pets multiple times and make sure they receive all their needed care Pets become part of my life while staying with me. I make sure they get lots of attention, love, and snuggles. I want pets to feel right at home.

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!
“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.”

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: 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.
About: I have spent my whole live having dogs and cats in my home and caring for other peoples animals as well. I’ve always had a dog and cats in my household and it just adds so much joy to my life. It’s something I’m very passionate about and have never met an animal that I don’t get along with!! I’m currently working part time in Aspen and really miss my own pets that are back home in Florida. I’ve always enjoyed taking care of pets as a part of my daily routine and would love to help others with doing the same. I have at least 3-4 free days a week to help anyone out! When it comes to the clients home I have plenty of experience being as hands on or hands off as the client prefers when it comes to their pets. When it comes to having pets at my own place I live in an extremely walkable area and have a very nice trail 5 minutes away for walks and exploring. My apartment is a very good size to have a pet over to hang out as well.
