“Emma did an absolute amazing job with my pup! Kept in contact and sent pics. I would highly recommend her! She not only took great care of Bear Bear, but also of my home. Thank you Emma!”

“William was absolutely incredible! He is so caring and took such great care of our animals and home! You can tell he takes watching pets and homes seriously and we can’t wait to have him back to stay with our dogs and cat, they adored him! Can’t recommend William enough!”
About: I’ve taken care of puppies to elderly dogs starting when I was 11. I love all animals and have cared for many from extremely anxious dogs to very active ones. I’m home from college for the summer and have a lot of free time, I would love to spend my summer with your adorable pets! Over my years of experience I have watched dogs in different settings (their home and mine) but I often find they are more comfortable in their home, especially if they are naturally more anxious animals.

About: I live in the Evergreen area and work in Golden, and I spend a lot of time outside running and hiking, so I’m a great match for dogs who have some energy and need more than just a quick walk. I’m super reliable, easygoing, and I pay attention to the little things, whether that’s sticking to your dog’s routine or just making sure they feel comfortable while you’re gone. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and getting them outside, so it never feels like a chore. Happy to help with walks, drop-ins, or sitting, whatever you need! I live in Evergreen and work at a running store in Golden during the week (and some weekends), but I have a flexible schedule and am available at different times throughout the day. I can usually make mornings, afternoons, or evenings work depending on what you need. I try to keep things as close to your dog’s normal routine as possible so they feel comfortable and relaxed. I pay attention to feeding, walks, and any specific instructions you give. I’m very mindful on walks and always prioritize safety. In your home, I’m respectful, clean, and consistent. I also send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands.
“Lilou was great with Lola, especially during the 4th of July for a night of scary fireworks. She was communicative and responsive all week. She sent pictures of Lola playing and Lola seemed to have a great time.”

“Thanks so much to Mitch for helping us out while we had to leave the country unexpectedly. We really appreciated his flexibility, especially when we had to coordinate a mobile vet visit at our home. Thank you again!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my commitment to providing personalized, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with dogs of all ages, including training energetic puppies with positive reinforcement techniques and providing gentle, attentive care for senior pets who may require medication, mobility assistance, or a slower pace. I’m highly observant, dependable, and make it a priority to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s sticking to a strict routine, handling special diets, or offering extra cuddles, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I’ve always made it a priority to ensure pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need. Each day, I set aside specific times for walks, playtime, and training sessions, adjusting based on each pet’s needs. If I’m caring for a puppy, I focus on consistent training and socialization, while for seniors, I incorporate gentler, shorter walks and provide any necessary health monitoring. I also make sure to offer plenty of time for bonding, ensuring pets feel comfortable and loved. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, so it never feels like a chore—it’s a natural part of my schedule. When caring for pets in the client’s home, I make sure to follow their established routine, including feeding, exercise, and any special care instructions. I respect the home environment by keeping things tidy and following any house rules the client has. I also ensure that pets receive ample attention, exercise, and mental stimulation, whether it’s through play, walks, or just hanging out. I provide updates through photos and messages to keep the client informed and at ease. The goal is to ensure pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved, just as they would with their owners.
“Blake was close. She was really kind and very mindful of my dogs needs. She accepted the job a day before on short notice. She sent pics of her walking my pup and that helped ease my anxiety of leaving her with a stranger. Definitely recommend Blake and her kitty Niko. Thanks Blake! ?”

“First time using Rachel & she was wonderful! Watched my two pups for a couple nights. Rachel sent a ton of photos, they spent a ton of time with her outside, on walks & snuggling! We never had to worry that our pups weren’t in Good hands because she was very communicative! Pups were happy & house was spotless when we got home… Hope to use Rachel again next time!”

“Ryan did a great job sitting for our dog. "Peaches" can be intimidating, but Ryan made friends with her quickly. He was at our house as promised, and sent regular updates by text and email. We will definitely ask for Ryan again.”

“Took great care of my animals and home. Lots of updates throughout the day. Made my vacation stress-free and I returned home to framed photos of my pets. Appreciated the extra effort! Great sitter.”

“Sarah was very professional and a clear communicator. She sent us really nice pictures of our fur babies and it was obvious how much fun they were having with her. She adjusted her schedule due to the high temperatures to make sure walks happened when it was cooler. Sarah is a very kind and caring person. We would definitely highly recommend her. Thanks Sarah!”

About: I’ve had 2 dogs all of my life and have helped take care of my sisters dog when she’s out of town. I love to take dogs on walks so they can enjoy some exercise. Spending time petting and scratching dogs is one of my favorite pass times! I am a student a Seattle pacific university and I am home for the summer. I have a lot of availability and am super flexible. I am willing to walk your dogs anywhere you’d like. I will also enjoy giving your puppies much love and affection whenever it is needed.
“We left our two very active golden retrievers with Alec for the week. Along with plants to water and bird feeders to manage. He was professional, caring, and communicated well. My animals and home were tended as if it was his own ( or maybe his family home!) . I would never hesitate to have him come back and he certainly earned a 5 star rating. The house was clean on our return and although the dogs were excited to see us I could tell there was no stress evident from our absence.”

“Jennifer did an incredible job with Marley while my husband and I were out of town. Her communication was excellent. I could tell that Jennifer really loves animals and that they love her as well. Highly recommend!”
“We had Megan housesit for us with our pup while we were out of town for a week. She did a great job taking care of our dog and the house! Lots of fun photos and long walks. Highest possible recommendation!”

About: I have three dogs of my own two of those being high energy. Additionally I spent some time in the veterinary field. My brother has had me dog sit for him on several occasions. I’m currently working extremely part time so I am available most mornings and afternoons. I am available most weekends as well and sometimes for overnight sits. I will take care of your fur babies as if they were my own. I love being outdoors so several walks per day is no issue.
About: I've been a dog sitter for over 5 years. I have cared for pups of all kinds, from tiny Chihuahuas to big lovable Great Danes! I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I always treat them with patience, love, and respect. I myself have a labradoodle at home who is a total goofball and so lovable. Whether it’s going on long walks, playtime, or just hanging out and giving belly rubs, I’m happy to meet your pet’s unique needs. I also have experience caring for dogs with special routines including giving medication and sticking to specific schedules. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and comfort are always my top priority! I am a full-time college student. Pet care fits perfectly into my flexible college schedule! I love spending my free time walking, playing, and caring for pets whenever I’m not in class. With that said my schedule is very open during the day with long breaks in between class. I also have Mondays, Wednesday, and Friday-Sunday totally free! I care for pets in their own home where they feel most safe and comfortable. I follow their routines, keep their space clean, and make sure they feel loved, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away.
