Stephanie was great with our two larger dogs! Very communicative and our dogs were very happy. She even helped out when we had an issue with water in the basement. Thank you Stephanie!

Kristin patiently tolerated my anxious pup who greeted her with 30 minutes of barking upon daily visits. She knew what to do to create trust and followed troubleshooting suggestions from us. Kristin had 4 fur baby personalities to attend and did so with competence and grace. Excellent communication and photos provided! Do not hesitate to hire her; she'll always be my first choice for in-home care.

This is our second time booking Sam - Sam provided daily updates with photos, clearly gave lots of cuddles and time to our babies while we were away. House looks great and she is a phenomenal sitter, we trust her and our dogs enjoy her company, walks, and play time while she's here.

Elizabeth was great! My dog can be a bit of a diva but everything went well and River felt calm around her. I received updates and messages throughout and my house was left very clean!

Abigail was an amazing sitter. We immediately felt comfortable with her from the moment she met our pup. She had great communication and gave our pup all the love. Would highly recommend to anyone with any type of pet, her background gives her great experience and she is a sitter to be trusted.

Andy was amazing with Snipper! She took such great care of her and made sure she was happy and comfortable the entire time. It was clear that Andy spent a lot of time playing with Snipper and giving her plenty of attention, which I really appreciated. I felt completely at ease knowing Snipper was in such good hands. I highly recommend Andy to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive pet sitter. Thank you so much, Andy!

Katy went over the top taking care of our dog Jax. Jax is a very shy, skittish dog. She knew how to work with him, and was observant of his comfort level. Katy is professional, trustworthy, and kind!

Autumn is the best! She stayed with our anxious little guy for 5 days and provided daily updates and photos. She is a great communicator and followed the walking/feeding instructions perfectly. She also gave him his heart worm meds! I would absolutely recommend Autumn to anybody who needs a pet sitter :)

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was little. I grew up always having a dog in the house, and pet sitting for neighbors' dogs and cats. I also have some experience in a small animal clinic, as well as caring for my sisters dog when she is away. I am a full-time student at CSU, but I have time in between classes, and they generally end around 2-3. My evenings are more open and I am flexible to fit to the needs of the animal. I am very comfortable with dogs and am good at reading body language. I am comfortable distributing meds, food , water, etc. I am willing to have dogs in my car if we were to go to a park, etc.

We could not have left our pup and our home in better hands. Deb was great with Jasper, and that's not an easy feat, as he is a big, rambunctious, and sometimes unpredictable guy. Our weekend away was stress free and we loved getting the photo updates from Deb. We are already dreaming of our next getaway, and Deb will be the first person we call to dog and house sit for us again.

Can I give more than five stars?? Christian was a wonderful pet/house sitter! This was the first time working with him and we couldn't have asked for anything better. He sent pictures and videos, took our pup on many walking adventures, and tried his hardest to win over our keep-to-herself cat. I never worried about our pets or home once over the week he was here. Christian is personable, attentive, friendly - and he even left our home looking cleaned and organized! This won't be our last time working with Christian. Highly recommend! 11/10!

Haley was absolutely incredible with Gypsy (11 yr old anxious reacue dog) and Raya (5 yr old Ragamuffin attention magnet). From the very first complimentary meet and greet, I could tell she was professional and genuinely invested. She came prepared, took detailed notes, asked for emergency contacts, confirmed which vet to use in case of emergency, and made sure she had exact medication dosages. She even asked about each dog’s specific quirks so she could support them in the way they’re used to. That level of thoroughness meant everything to me. Communication during the stay was wonderful. She sent regular photo updates and kept me posted on how they were doing, which gave me total peace of mind. She treated my home with so much care, and I came back to a house that was cleaner than when I left it. She even left the sweetest little coaster as a gift that I found after she left. It said “Sweet Kitten,” and it was such a thoughtful, personal touch. For context, I am a very cautious pet parent, and Gypsy is extremely anxious when separated from me. This was the first time I have ever left them with anyone outside of family, so I was understandably nervous. Haley handled it beautifully. Gypsy was calm, comfortable, and clearly felt safe. I did not worry once all weekend. I truly knew they were in loving, capable hands. Haley is sweet, responsible, attentive, and a joy to work with. And, for those that perhaps run a little late, Haley was able to be flexible with my arrival back home as well. I will ABSOLUTELY be booking her again and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any pet parent, especially those with anxious pups who need extra care and sensitivity.

About: I have had dogs my entire life and am currently in advanced obedience and agility with my golden retriever. I love to play and walk with our dogs. I am a retired medical professional and feel comfortable giving any medications. I would love to care for your dogs and keep them safe and happy while you are away. I have taken care of friends and relatives dogs. I am retired so I can stay with your pet while you are away. My husband will be taking care of our dogs while I pet sit. I will take great care of your pets. Follow all instructions. Make sure they are fed on time and exercised if requested. I am responsible and dogs love me!

Oliver was very responsive and we returned to a happy puppy. This was the first time we had left our 16 week old puppy home without us and I had the utmost trust in Oliver. He sent us several updates and was quick to respond to messages.

How fortunate was I to find Teresa. She provided all the TLC for my pups they needed and more. One dog has special medical needs and she handled them perfectly. I could tell from the photos she sent me that my pups were content and responded to her in ways only I would understand. Book Teresa and you will have assurance and peace of mind.

Megan was an amazing sitter. We both met before the actual start of care and I loved her. I reached out last minute for a travel plan and she met all my expectations in my home. In my opinion, SHE IS THE BEST and will care for your pet like you do. I will definitely be booking her again!! 🐾❤️🐾

We cannot say enough good things about Mollie! First time using a pet sitter for us. Mollie stayed at our home and took the best care of our three cats. She literally had my big bashful Maine Coon eating out of her hand. Literally 😹😹😹 Mollie knows how to work with cats and doesn’t force interaction which goes along way with them. Two cats were following her around basically the whole time she was here, a sleeping and snuggling with her. She sent plenty of photos and updates and was willing to accommodate anything we asked her to do. Tuna, Leo and Frank have been asking when we are going on vacation again so they can hang out with Mollie again😹

Leaving Angela with Kaitlyn is like sending her to a favorite grandma; she ends up thoroughly spoiled (in a good way). Kaitlyn is an excellent communicator and house guest, and she also took great care of Angela when she cut her foot in something in the yard.
