“Stephanie did an amazing job taking care of our “problem child” Murphy! He’s very protective of us and is weary of new people. Stephanie took the time to come by for four nights before we left so she could spend time getting to know Murphy so he was comfortable while we were gone. He ended up loving Stephanie and giving her lots of cuddles! We will definitely be calling on her to take care of Murphy again!”


“Really appreciated her she was great and my animals loved her. I was so nervous leaving my dog because she has super bad separation anxiety and had never been with out us before, but she was great with getting her to go outside and giving them all lots of love! Definitely recommend! :))”


About: I have taken care of animals since I was 8 years old! I have been pet sitting for the same 6 families for about 5 years now. I love all types of dogs and have a ton of energy to play with your pet! I only have 3 night classes this year so I am VERY available and open whenever! I will be in Fort Collins for at least the next 8 months so I will be great for long term and short term care! I have experience crating dogs when necessary and have a massive back yard to let your furry friend run around! I will be sure to check all gates are locked when we take your pet outside to ensure they are safely kept!

“Ann was amazing! They were very thorough in our initial meet and greet, asking all the right questions to make sure they were prepared for anything. They were prompt for each visit and we received lots of pictures. As a first time user for Rover, I am exceptionally pleased with how this all went. I know I’d be able to count on Ann in the future to watch our cats.”


About: I have experience in working with pets because my mother and I ran a rescue in Texas where she was a nurse, I am especially caring with all animals. I have access to my fathers’ farmstead of 40 acres for hosting the pets there or in the safety of my apartment I sit the pets with my roommate Michael who is always introduced to the pet parents. We ask if the pet would like a free bath and so the owners always know about his role in the pet care before hand. Lastly, I’m pretty over protective with your pets so they arrive home in good shape. I can accommodate your schedule and help you out any time or on short notice. I only use the food you require or healthy foods I buy for my business I offer discount rebates for certain circumstances; after booking is paid for extended stays & frequent updates if you’d like; and most importantly a safe pet environment. Again I have Acess to my dads farm for frequent exercise or if you dog needs more space to roam For stays longer than a day I offer free supplies for the dog/animal while staying with me such as litter and food in certain circumstances and again scholarships for families with economic hardships; which means, adjustments to my rates. I can accommodate special dietary needs and feed pets just good healthy food. I am a very safety aware person & wont jeopardize your pet in any way. I have a pet proof home & again I have access to my father’s farm and we love the do park if there are nice dogs playing; if the dogs require more movement daily and not just my safe location in Moscow where there is a back yard run for the dogs at pet friendly location. Field trips do include the dog park again, but only safe walk places where the dog is leashed all the time; as long as there are no high risk animals out at dog park the dogs love it there; there and various outings to socialize the animals and a comfortable large two bedroom apartment for couch potato dog or elderly animals We also have some extra leashes & supplies for animals that need them if you forget them at home.

Claire W.
“Hello! I’ve been Claire’s roommate for three years now and we share our home with two lovely cats. Throughout the years, Claire has consistently been the most dedicated and caring cat owner. While cats are very independent, they still require lots of attention and playtime, and Claire is always ready to be there for them in any way they need. She is empathetic, attentive, and very tuned in to their needs. I always know our cats are in good hands if I leave on vacation. It can be hard to trust another with your pets, but I can’t think of anyone better to care for animals!”


Nayeli A.
“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Nayeli to take care of my two cats, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear that she had a genuine love for animals. She was incredibly attentive to my cats' needs and made sure to follow all the instructions I left. I received daily updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My cats were happy and well-cared for. I highly recommend Nayeli to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”


Nicholas H.
“Nicholas took excellent care of my dogs while I was on fire assignment. He not only was extremely respectful of my space, he treated my dogs as if they were his own and sent me updates and pictures as requested. He was confident and more than experienced in handling my reactive dog on and off leash, as well as providing the proper feeding schedule and required medications to both dogs. I will definitely be using Nicholas in the future. I would highly recommend Nicholas to anyone looking for pet care! Thank you!”

Griffen P.
“I would absolutely recommend Griffen as a caretaker for anyone's animals. Griffen has grown up around pets and is comfortable with the care routines that different animals require to be healthy and nurtured. He also exhibits outstanding patterns of responsibility and effort. He is respectful and exhibits leadership by doing the right thing even in high pressure situations. I have also seen how Griffen consistently works hard to establish rapport and trust with his clients to ensure a relationship of mutual comfort and professionalism. As a collegiate athlete and exceptional student, he has displayed high levels of achievement in multiple areas of life and does his best at everything he is committed to. I have no doubt that this dedication and intentionality will show up in his interactions with you and your animal(s). If you are hoping to leave your pet in the hands of someone who will go the extra mile in providing care for your pet, Griffen is the right choice.”
