House Sitting Hesperus

“Merran is AWESOME! Two of our three pups are quite shy with new people and they took to her so quickly for her short stay. We loved getting the photos and updates every day while away & felt great about being away for the first time in a while - thanks Merran!”

“Came home to the house exactly as I left it so that was awesome especially after a vacation. My dogs seemed happy and obviously healthy. Definitely recommend.”

About: I have had dogs as pets most of my life but love any kind of pet. I have also fostered puppies and kittens. I am responsible and trustworthy and will love and care for your pets while you are gone. Drop ins, walks or overnight care at your home. I work from home so my schedule is flexible to make drop ins, go on walks or stay overnight if needed. I will accommodate whatever your pets need while you are away. I can take care of your pets at your home where they are comfortable. I will treat your home with respect and love on your pets so you can have a relaxing time away.

“Samatha was amazing! She fed Winter on schedule and didn’t miss any meals. She texted me each day with an update and sent a pic of Winter with it. I really appreciated that. My house was left nice and clean. It was raining and my backyard can get muddy so she was wiping my dogs feet. Winter had an accident on her bed so Samantha washed her bed for her. She was really great so I’d recommend her to everyone! She is a really sweet person!”

“Lucy is great! She is super respectful, responsible, and easy to work with. She took excellent care of our large and active dog for 9 days with lots of dog walks, treats, and snuggles! She sent updates and pictures of our dog to set our minds at ease and left our home clean for our return. I will definitely book Lucy again if she is available! Thank you Lucy!”

About: Happy to help with special requests and have experience administering oral medication. I've cared for all kinds of animals and temperments, including big and small dogs, cats, hamsters, chickens, mice, and lizards! I'm reliable, hardworking, and I will love your furry friends just like you do! I work 9:15-5:15 Sun-Thu, and may have time to do check ins/bathroom duty at lunch. Otherwise, I am available for walks/check ins before work and longer walks/check ins after work. On my off days I can be super flexible. I'll do my best to meet your needs! On overnights, I come to your home so your pet stays comfortable in their own space and routine. I make sure they're fed, watered, exercised, and loved, and I treat your home with the same respect I'd want for my own. Please let me know if you have any special requests when it comes to your home; I will always tidy the place before I leave and am willing to do some extra house cleaning for a small fee. Otherwise, I'll bring my own meals and can send photo updates daily upon request!

“Chris did a great job looking after our two dogs. He was very consistent with update and photos, asked questions to make sure the dogs and house were taken care of well, kept the house clean & neat and went the extra mile for us. We will definitely reach out to him when we need someone to look after our dogs. Thanks Chris.”

About: I’ve cared for many different dogs for years. From friends to family, I like to spend time with dogs in their own environment to get them comfortable without their owner and with me. I’ll play with their toys, know their favorite spaces and habits, etc. I treat every pet like they’re my own—paying close attention to their routines, personalities, and little quirks so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away I’m a full time college student at the University of Denver, but home in Durango for the summer. I can do boarding any day and am flexible with my schedule. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow all feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific care instructions, including medications if needed. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, while also respecting their space if they’re more shy or independent.

About: I have grown up with animals and taken care of animals my entire life. Grew up on a small farm and have worked with all types of pets. My schedule is very open in the mornings and most evenings. I sometimes work on weekends but very flexible. I go to Durango an Bayfield. I can crate dogs, walk dogs, hike with dogs and just love on dogs. Take dogs on runs, hikes and car rides. Able to do just about whatever is needed.

“Trista was amazing. I have never returned from a trip and seen my dog so happy and energetic. Trista left my house spotless and went above and beyond to collect mail, clean up and wash all towels and sheets that she used. I highly recommend Trista to trust her with your beloved fur babies and in staying in your home!”

About: I have lived in a dog friendly household ever since I can remember. Growing up, my family always had Boxers so I am more than used to taking care of energetic dogs. I have helped raise many a puppy, as well as cared for our family dogs as they eased into old age. I recently adopted a puppy from Northern Arizona Animal Search and Rescue. We are working on socializing her with both dogs and people. She absolutely loves playing with other dogs! I currently work from home full time so I will be home the entire time your pet stays with me. I am also a runner and run 7 days a week, so I would be more than happy to take your pup with me for a short run, walk, hike or whatever it is that you would like! I have a larged fenced in yard with a gate for your dog to play in. I also have plenty of room in my house to store a crate if needed!

“Very responsive, Mouse was very happy”

About: Ive been house/pet sitting for folks in my neighborhood since I was in middle school. I've always loved animals and always had a few of my own my entire life, ranging from livley puppies to much older dogs (same with cats), I can easily say ive taken care of many animals of different kinds of training and age ranges. Some dates around August might be a little finicky as I'm planning on moving but until I know more details I'm keeping my availability open! I am currently working part time! Typically my schedule is mid-day shifts (10-4) on the weekends, the weekdays I work 4-8 on Tuesday and Thursday and 11-8 on Wednesday. That being said my schedule is fairly flexible especially on weekends, my Mondays and Fridays I have off entirely! I can crate any pets that may need it, will happily stay in the same space for extended periods of time, and when on walks or outdoor activities keep the dog on a leash unless in an enclosed space. I'm open to instructions especially if there are certain ways that a household does something.

About: I grew up in Alaska, surrounded by all types of dogs and have cared for animals from less than 10lb to 100. I love animals in all shapes and sizes and will accommodate to whatever your pet needs are. I’m happy to take a dog for a hike to get all the energy out or just chill with a kitty at home. I’ve had many friends, family and strangers trust me with taking care of their pet. I treat them just as my own, understanding how precious your fur babies are to you! I just got off a fishing boat and have a flexible schedule and can make random times of the day free to play with animals and can accommodate to the pets physical needs. I will follow any guidelines requested for the care of your pet. I’ll make your pet feel as safe and comfortable as possible, treating them with respect, patience and calmness.

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 5 years old and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, playing with, and giving pets lots of attention and affection. Since I’m home most of the day, your pet will have constant supervision, care, and companionship. I understand how important pets are to families, and I’ll treat your dog like my own while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently have an open schedule, which allows me to give pets lots of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and overnight care, and I can stay flexible with different routines and needs. Your pet won’t ever be left alone for long periods and will get plenty of playtime, supervision, and care. I have an 8-month-old female dog and a cat in my home, so I’m very used to caring for animals daily and making sure they stay safe, comfortable, and happy. Your animals can play with mine and I always supervise interactions between pets and pay attention to their behavior to keep the environment calm and stress-free. I follow owners’ instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, routines, and any special care needs, to help every pet feel secure and well cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of almost all kinds of animals since I was very young and I adore all pets and understand the necessity of pet sitters. I have done foster care for puppies, kittens, and special care senior animals alike. I’m a quick learner and dedicated to the absolute best for your pet. I’m also new to this app and am happy to negotiate on prices! My schedule can revolve entirely around your pet! I’m currently on summer break from my online college degree and am able to work flexibly depending on your needs. My only obligations are to take care of my own animals in the morning, evening, and midday. Which often is a quick routine and can be taken over by a loved one if necessary! I have an unfenced yard and hiking trail for walking dogs directly behind my apartment, I’m also close to a large field for stimulation if they need more activity and love going on hikes as well. I have 2 very friendly spayed female dogs and a spayed female cat, all of which love other animals. I have a crates for either my own animals or yours in a safe space. Pets are allowed on furniture and bed in my apartment.
