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.
“Jenna was awesome and took great care of my pup and the house. She checked in, sent pics, and responded quickly if I had a question. I highly recommend Jenna and will be in touch with her again for our next trip.”
“Mary Beth was such a great sitter! We have never used the app before or left our dogs/ cat since moving to Colorado and she made it such a breeze. She supplied many pictures and check ins each day. We have a GPS tracker on our dog’s collar so I can say with 100% certainty that she took them for great long walks everyday. 10/10 recommend Mary Beth to watch your fur babies, we will only be using her from now on!”
About: There was a gap from when I was last on here! Sorry, so anyways, starving to care for your furry friends and family members! I get along with all kinds. I have house and pet sat for friends while out of state and was brought up with many, many animals. I don’t become heightened myself with vocal dogs and have experience with all dietary specializations. I have a sneaking suspicion i’m who you’re looking for when it comes to an exceptional carer. I’m currently in CNA course and so glad to put your pawed family first priority around that schedule. No distraction or interference, your family comes first. :) I try and keep with rituals and follow action steps each day. If I have a question I communicate how you like. I keep regular communications, you know, to send photos and shorts of pets on walks, relaxing, and spent after a day in the sun, or what have you.

We feel incredibly lucky to have found Hunter! From the very beginning he was professional, friendly, and responsive. He offered to come by beforehand so we could meet and feel comfortable, something we really appreciated. He is truly one of the nicest people we’ve met, and he took exceptional care of our two dogs during our 10-day trip. Hunter went above and beyond in every way. We came home to happy, well-cared for pups and a peaceful house. I can honestly say I’ve never felt so stress-free leaving our dogs and home in someone else’s care. It’s such a relief knowing we have someone we can fully trust. We will absolutely be booking Hunter anytime we go out of town. Highly recommend!
Alex was absolutely wonderful! She watched our two Goldens for a week and sent pup dates daily. She was communicative and we came home to a clean house! Our flight got delayed on the last day and she even extended her stay to make sure our dogs were fed and taken care of. We will be booking Alex again and again.
Trish is a pro. Her many years of experience mix seamlessly with her affection for dogs and her conscientious approach to living in someone else's house. This was my first time using her to babysit my dog in my condo over a weekend. I have nothing but highest praise for her. She came through for me at the last minute and was very agreeable regarding the schedule I needed. Thanks again, Trish.
I would highly recommend Matt! He was professional, kind, and followed our detailed instructions. He even notified us of an issue with the house and helped to troubleshoot it while we were gone. Our dogs were happy and cared for and Matt sent pictures or videos every day. The house was exactly as we left it upon our return. We would definitely hire him again.
Had a great experience with Brian house/pet sitting for us. Great daily communication and both the house and pets were well taken care of while we were gone including a clean house to come home to. He even dealt with both of our big dogs and days of rain in a row. Will rebook
