“Lindsay is super sweet and very on top of it! She make sure that you feel comfortable with her as your walker/ sitter. She’ll send us pictures and give us updates. She also took the time to meet with us and our dog before starting could not be happier!”
About: Taking care of and training my dogs has been a vital part of my growing up and there is nothing more fulfilling than gaining the love from animals I am a college student home for the summer and have nothing but time to take care of other’s furry loved ones, my availability is open to the needs of the animals I have had dogs my whole life which has made me very aware of what is safe and not safe for dogs, I am also very good at following the directions from the owners of animals as they know what is best for their pets and what is normal and not normal. Many animals also have routines they follow and I believe following those routines helps keep a normalcy for when they are out of their normal.
“Paul helped us out with dog walking the week of Thanksgiving and did a great job. He was prompt and managed despite a winter storm. We hope to have him help out on future trips with walks/care for our pup!”
About: I work from home so I can spend lots of time with your pups. I should note that I will be the person responsible for taking care of your pups. I actually added a couch in my office specifically for our dogs to hang out with me while I'm working. I have a fenced yard for quick potty breaks and playtime, but also regularly take walks ranging from 10 minutes to over an hour, depending on how much exercise your dogs need. As a dog owner my entire adult life, I've been there for pups ranging from energitic puppies needing bathroom breaks every 10 minutes to elderly dogs needing extra gentle care and affection. Your dog will get tons of attention and affection from the whole family - whether it is playing chase, walks/hikes or cuddling on the couch. I work from home and therefore am available pretty much constantly to watch and interact with dogs in my home. It also gives me the flexibility to visit and take care of dogs in my clients' homes. I try to keep a pretty consistent routine with my dogs - including multiple walks per day and playtime - as well as feeding/medication schedules. I have a fenced yard for quick potty breaks and some playtime. We NEVER take dogs out of fenced areas without a leash. I've been a dog parent for 40+ years and take my responsiblity as their care taker seriously - and I include fun and affection as part of my responsiblity. In a client's home, I handle my role professionally. That means, making certain I'm meeting the client's expectations for visitation frequency, walking and keeping the environment exactly as I found it.

“Tori was awesome with our cat and senior dog while we were on our honeymoon. Normally our cat is very standoffish with meeting new people but he ended up loving her right away.

“Thank you, Lila for taking such good care of Pace ! It made it easier to be away knowing someone was caring for him the same way I would. Consistently sending me pictures and a report each time you visited was a bonus and very much appreciated !”
“Michelle was amazing! Our cat is young and energetic and she made sure to get his energy out every day and leave all sorts of enrichment things when she left for the day. Despite our kitty being a bit high maintenance, Michelle took excellent care of him and was incredibly responsive and receptive to new instructions. Thank you for your hard work, Michelle!”
“We are so glad to have found Dan!! We appreciate how well he cares for Louie while on walks. Louie comes back happy and tired, and based on how excited he is when sees Dan, looking forward to his next walk 😆”
About: I love all animals and have had a few pups and cat of my own. I've house/dog sit for a few friends fir short and long priods while owners were on vacation. I'm Ready to run, walk the block or stop by to play with your fur baby, so the possibilities are endless! Caring for your fur baby is my top priority. I'm open to helping take care of any other pets needs in the home as well! My availability is currently wide open so I would like to use my free time enjoying the company of your fur baby and making sure they are happy and healhy when you/they come home. I want to make you and your pup/cat comfortable so i would prefer visits to be at your home. I can also house sit at your home on short or long vacations as needed.
About: I’ve worked with dogs professionally for years, from daycare to boarding, training, and even managing a kennel. I’ve also volunteered with the Denver Zoo and intern/volunteered at the W.O.L.F. Sanctuary. I’m confident with all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and I truly love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles, I’m here to make your pup feel safe and happy while you’re away. I’m hoping to make this a long-term position for me, so I have pretty open availability for walking, sitting, and boarding. The only exceptions to this are Tuesdays and Thursdays, when I have to drive up to CSU campus! I have a fully fenced yard, several harnesses and collars, several crates, and a couple of doggies of my own to keep your pup company! I also have plenty of enrichment activities and puzzles for inside entertainment of the weather’s too bad! All dogs welcome for walking, and or sitting, female dogs only for boarding.
About: About the Human: My name is Jordan, and I have extensive experience watching dogs, cats, horses, chickens, reptiles, and houses for friends and family. I've always been an animal lover and am passionate about making sure your fur babies are well taken care of! I work full-time and am remote about 98% of the time, in addition to working on a Masters degree online. About the Dog: Atlas is a 4 year old pitbull/pointer/hound mix that I rescued as a puppy. He is high energy, social, affectionate, and intelligent. He LOVES meeting new people and other dogs!! He is up to date on all of his vaccinations. Atlas likes to play tug, chase, and wrestle with his friends! I work full-time but am mainly remote so my days are flexible. My work hours are 8am-4:30pm. Our schedule can vary but my dog's internal clock usually wants to go potty around 6:30am, 9am, 12pm, 4pm, and 7pm. We usually walk over my lunch break anywhere between 1.5-3 miles. During the hotter months we wait to do our longer walk until 6pm or so when it starts cooling down. I will always treat your pet with the same love and respect I would give my own. Atlas is the love of my life; he's spoiled and well cared for, which I hope is obvious in his behavior when you meet him. Be assured your fur baby will receive the same treatment whether we are in my own home or yours! I'm not finicky about animals on the couch or in the bed, and I always have plenty of treats on hand.
