House Sitting in Idaho Springs

“William was amazing with all our animals, two of which are high energy GSP's. Even our wiener dog that takes forever to warm up to people, was barking at him to get more pets and attention even with us back! He was extremely respectful of our home and it was actually cleaner than when we left. We would highly recommend William and will definitely be using him again!!”

“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.”

About: I love dogs and have experience caring for all ages and breeds, including my own lab/pit rescue. I'm reliable, organized, and detail-oriented, ensuring your dog's safety and happiness. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! I currently work part time as a manager at a small business and only need to be in the office when I have clients. Therefore, I have lots of time to care for your pet! I currently am not taking boardings as my home is not suitable at this time but I will take all precautions when caring for your pup in your home or in walks.

About: I have been taking care of a large variety of dogs for 20 years. From eight weeks old to 16 years old, from pugs to chows and pitbulls to 140 pound malamutes I have cared for them all. I can come by to walk and feed your best friends once a day or stay and cook them meals as per your request. I want to make sure you and your loved ones are as comfortable as possible while you are away. I do freelance work so I have pretty open availability. Making sure you're needs are met so you are comfortable is my top priority. If for some reason I can't meet all of your needs I will tell you before committing to something that doesn't fit my schedule or abilities. I am here for you. How I care for your pets and home is mostly dependent on your requests. I give medicine, food and exercise as requested. I can simply fill a food bowl, measure servings and even cook protein and veggies for your dogs if that is what you want. I am happy to keep you updated or send you pictures if you'd like. Walks are as far/long/plentiful as requested. I want to provide you with the comfort of knowing someone is there to care for your loved one as you would while you are away.

“Mitch took great care of Jeff and Xochitl again. We knew they were completely safe with him and he sent us pictures of them. We are so happy when he stays with them!”

“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!”

“Megan was fabulous!! She took great care of our pup Arya with lots of walks and cuddles. She was very responsive and kept us updated while we were out of town. She also took lots of photos and left our home spotless!! We will definitely be having her again!!”

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, and almost every home I’ve lived in has had dogs or cats. I’m very comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m reliable and respectful of your home. I’ll make sure pets are fed, exercised, and comfortable while you’re away. I keep a consistent routine so pets feel safe and cared for. I’m also very handy and comfortable taking care of a home, so you can trust that everything will be looked after while you’re gone. I am always willing to provide updates and photos for peace of mind. My schedule allows me to spend consistent, quality time with your pets throughout the day. On my days off (Sunday–Tuesday), I’m able to be more present and attentive. On other days, I make it a priority to return home promptly and spend the evenings and nights with your pets. I follow your pet’s usual schedule so they stay comfortable and stress-free, and I always provide updates so you feel at ease while you’re away. I treat every home with respect and keep things clean, secure, and organized while you’re away. I’m very attentive to pets’ behavior and needs, and I make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their environment. I’m also handy and can keep an eye on things around the house if needed. You can expect regular updates, photos, and dependable care throughout the stay.

“Lilou did a very good job communicating with us and was patient when we didn’t get back to her on a question. The dogs were taken care of as well as the house. Appreciate her very much”

“Jaci was great with our dog Mabel and also took good care of our home. She was proactive with communication and sent regular pictures so we could see how our girl was doing. She took Mabel on lots of walks and gave her a ton of attention. I’d definitely use Jaci again in the future!”

About: Animals have been a gift in my life in so many different ways. I've had cats and dogs of my own throughout the years but none presently who live with me, but I do miss them so! I worked in animal care and adoptions at a Humane Society for half a decade and I've worked as a Veterinary Technician at a clinic for a few years as well. I've been intermittently house sitting on and off since I was in my teens (20 years ago!). I've come to see a lot of different homes and learn about their particular needs over the years, and have learned to communicate clearly and ask questions about expectations and what not. It can be an intimate experience living in someones home and caring for their beloved four leggeds and taking them on as your own. House sitting feels much more than just a gig to me, it's truly stepping into the world of the people I'm sitting for and learning how to love and care for their beings, belongings, plants, kitchen things, neighbors, appliances, etc. I do love a good woodstove or fireplace and nothing beats a snuggled up animal by a warm fire with tea. I run my own wellness business as a sound healer so have a flexible schedule and do sessions remotely for clients. I have chunks of flexible time to spend with animals who need a little extra TLC or what have you, which I am so grateful for! I love getting outside for walks and its always nice to have a canine being to enjoy that with. Or, sometimes its nice to have a feline being to hang around with if they are wanting any interaction. I will take on your home as my own for the time that I am there and treat it as such and care for it to the absolute best of my abilities.

“Jennifer treats our pup so well and takes such good care of our place. Very easy to communicate with and always quick to respond. She’s the best!”

Leah W.

“Michael was great and was very helpful in securing a short-notice sitter. He was flexible and able to adapt to my larger pack. Very communicative and was able to accommodate their various needs. I would recommend Michael to anyone looking for a sitter who may have a less typical pet situation.”

Curtis D.

“Taylor was great! He kept us regularly updated with pics and videos. He was responsive to our messages. Best of all, after a week away, the pups were happy and relaxed…a good sign they got the care we were hoping for.”

Philip W.

“Our family was super blessed to have Brandon this is the second time we have used Brandon first time was from a different platform. He did take care of our pups and our home, we highly recommend them for any stay.”

David C.

“Blake was absolutely incredible! She took our dogs and multiple walks a day, sent wonderful pictures, and made sure we had updates at all times! We will have her watch our pups anytime! Couldn't recommend more!”

Feliz S.

“Carol is been one of the best pet sitters we’ve ever had. She’s incredibly conscientious, responsible, responsive, a we felt that she really cared for our pups while she was away. When we got home, everything was in great order. She’ll be the first person I check with when planning future trips where we need care for our home and dogs!!”
