Pet Sitting in Lake City

“Ashley watched our cat Beetles for a week while we were out of town. He always loves to spend time with her, and we are always impressed by how attentive and communicative she is. ☺️”

About: Hello fellow dog lovers! With over 20 years of experience owning and caring for dogs, I understand the deep bond between humans and their furry companions. I’ve recently moved to Silverton and, though I cannot host pets in my rental, I’d love to take your dog for a walk or house sit where they feel most comfortable- your home! I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to provide care both during and outside of regular business hours. Whether it’s a midday walk, evening playtime or weekend adventure, I’m here to ensure your dog receives the attention, love and exercise they deserve. If you book me for pet sitting in your home, you can feel at ease knowing that I will respect your space and make it a goal of mine to leave your space as clean (or cleaner!) than how I arrived. Let’s connect and discuss how I can offer your dog the right care and attention to make you feel comfortable when you can’t be with them. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! I work from home and have a fairly flexible schedule! I can provide pet services within or outside of regular business hours- let’s discuss your pets needs and I can likely fit them in to my schedule, no problem! I love clients who offer detailed lists of their pets needs and daily routines! I used to do the same with my dog and know that following something like this gives everyone involved (dogs included!) ease of mind.

“Claire took care of our boys for 4 days while we were wheeling in Colorado. She was punctual took them on long walks and provided the best care.”

About: Hiking, walking, training, playing, or cuddling - no problem! I work remotely so when your pup is under my care, they're with me 100% of the time! No errands or work to juggle. Plus, my pups are awesome playmates! I work remotely so my pet care is simple, I'm with the pups all day and all night. Potty times are frequent, daily walkabouts are necessary, playtime is alternated with my professional computer time, meal time is morning and night, and bed time is sunset. I am able to make myself at home anywhere, very easily. So my home routine is the same wherever I go. Of course, client preferences may alter this routine.

About: I have several years of experience pet and house sitting, including overnight and extended stays. I’ve cared for a wide range of animals—from playful puppies and senior pets with special needs to exotic pets like reptiles and birds, as well as farm animals such as goats and chickens. I’m confident handling feedings, medication, and basic training, especially for young dogs. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their home environment, and I treat every home with respect and care while owners are away. My career is very flexible allowing freedom to live a nomadic life. I travel for work, but my home is in the San Juan Mountains. My scheduling is usually pretty flexible. Please reach out to further discuss availability. As I offer in home services and dog walking only. I will give your pets love and care in the environments that they are comfortable in. I will listen to and honor any of the owner’s requests as to the care of their furry family members. Your home and pets will be taken care of as if they were my own.

“Sierra is the best! She is dependable, caring, and has great communication with us while we’re away. Knowing that she is taking care of my 2 cats puts me at ease when I’m away. I couldn’t be happier with her!!”

About: I have a soft spot for animals and love to play!! I've had pets my entire life and can help yours have a more active lifestyle. I'm willing to take long hikes on the trails, short walks around town, play ball at your place or just spend quality time with senior pets. I'm known for my integrity and dependability. I understand pets are like children to most people and will treat them as such.Great local references. I live and work full time in Ouray. I work at the Ouray Hot Springs Pool Friday through Monday 6am to 4pm. I can house/pet sit 7 days a week. When staying in someone's home I follow the lists/guidelines exactly as the homeowner wishes. I don't plan other things while sitting. Watching/ entertaining and caring for your home and pet is my job around the clock. I can provide a long list of local references if desired.

“Jill was the best!!! She sent a lot of pics and gave me a detailed description of her visit with my kitty! As any pet owner, I was apprehensive about leaving him but Jill made the whole experience great! 10/10 would recommend!!”

About: Dogs that come visit usually have a blast being part of the pack and end up learning some desirable behaviors with my 2 service animals Bellie and Lola. I am a retired veteran so i am free to work with dogs all day everyday, its very rewarding and works great with my schedule. I have a couple of runners set up and shade structures. When it is hot I let the dogs inside. I take the dogs out to play with my pack often. We will go on walks, throw frizbee, play tag, practice tricks, etc. I like to take the dogs swimming too if thats permitted by the owners before hand ( I have doggy life jackets).

About: I’ve taken care of every sort of critter since I was a little kid and have always been passionate about making animals a part of my life. This includes puppies, dogs with disabilities, blind cats, animals needing medication, and lots of animals with big personalities-I even have one my self (Australian blue healer). I have volunteered all over the country at different shelters while traveling and have worked for shelters and animal ranches. You could say I know a thing or two about animals. My dogs are essentially my kids and come on almost every adventure with me. With clients, I treat their dog exactly how I expect others to treat my furry ones when I’m out of town. If there is anything special that you’d like to let me know, then I am all ears. I spend most of my free time rock climbing and adventuring outdoors. I also love to read and paint, so if your dog isn’t as active, I will certainly lounge around with them :) All of my pets get better care than I think most dogs ever get and your dog will be treated just the same! My dogs are always involved in every activity and never feel left out. They all love to learn, play, walk, adventure and of course get snacks! Just let me know how you normally take care of your dog and we can make it work!

About: I recently lost my dog of 11 years, a sweet, catahoula pit mix. I gained experience in puppy training, handling dog aggressive behavior and senior care. Please let me know your dogs needs so I can give you both the best experience and care! I work from home as a realtor and take a daily walk/hike for at least 2miles/an hour. Happy to schedule in lots of potty breaks in the fenced backyard and little trips to the treat store and parks too. I’m a lonely nester without my beloved bean dog! I have all the things a dog could want and need at my place- treats, beds, blankets, bowls and tons of love! I can’t wait to take your dog on tons of adventures outside and around the neighborhood.
