About: I don’t have pets of my own, but I’ve taken care of dogs and cats from other family members. I also work as a caregiver, so I’ve had clients with pets that needed help taking care of them. I have experience with large to medium dogs, but mostly small dogs from puppyhood and up. And if you have a pet that has a strict diet you’ll be happy to know I am immune to their deceptions. I do have some experience with dog sitting overnight and I used to volunteer at an animal shelter, working with both cats and dogs. I currently work part-time so I can work around my schedule and check on pets after a shift. I’m free two days straight on weekends l so I can stay overnight if needed if you want a weekend getaway without worrying about your fur babies. I’d just have to discuss scheduling details with you so everything goes smoothly. The first thing I’ll do is look for any possible ways your dog may get out and secure them so the won’t be able to get out. I’d also try to double secure a leash in the event of one clasp breaking, the other will keep your pet secure.

About: The things that set me apart from other sitter is I don’t really have a certificate to show I’m a professional. But I have been around a lot of dogs to know what’s good and bad for any dog. I enjoy meeting new dog knowing what they enjoy or in what house hold they grew up in. They should be treated with kindness and fairness because they deserve the world. Currently, I can do weekends just for August. Saturdays 8AM-11AM Sundays 2pm-5pm In September my availability will be open to weekdays. Thank you for understanding. In your home, I will treat your pet as on of my own with respect and patience. Making sure your pet is aware that it is loved, cared, and well looked at.

About: I have had pets ever since I can remember: dogs, cats, and fish. I have experience with bigger dogs and puppies. I own a beta fish as well, and have had them on and off for about 8 years. I am in school right now, I attend the University of Colorado Boulder, so I am busy from 12:30-4:30 every weekday. On weekends, I am free all day Saturday and Sunday. In my home, we have dog bowls and treats available, as well as fresh water. We also have a park next to our house for walks. In the clients home, I will be incredibly respectful of your space and be sure that I know where everything is located for the animals so I know they can get the best care while their person is away!

“Brad has been great walking my dog Roy several times now! He is very calm and intuitive with dogs, also very reliable and sends fun pictures from the outings. Roy is tired and happy when I get home.”

About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. This includes daily feeding, cleaning food and water bowls, scooping litter boxes, letting pets outside, walking dogs, and providing regular playtime and companionship. I’m comfortable administering medications, including giving pills and syringe medication, and I always follow care instructions carefully. I’m especially patient with nervous or shy dogs and take a calm, slow approach that allows them to feel safe and in control. I also have experience managing multiple dogs at once and have completed drop-in pet sitting visits, making sure pets are cared for, exercised, and given attention while their owners are away. I’m currently in school and finish at 3 PM, so I’m available in the afternoons for dog walks or drop-in visits. I’d love to help care for your pets and make sure they get the attention and exercise they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications, and house rules, to make sure everything stays consistent while you’re away. I take a calm, patient approach with every pet. Especially those who are nervous or shy, so they feel secure and in control. I never rush interactions and always respect your pet’s boundaries. I keep a close eye on behavior and health, and I’ll let you know right away if something seems off. During visits, I make sure doors and gates are secure, leashes are used properly, and your home is left just as you left it. My goal is to create a safe, stress-free environment where your pet feels comfortable and you feel confident they’re in good hands.

About: Hi there, my name is Molly, nice to meet you! I'm a Boulder native, and have been dog/cat/chicken/chinchilla/tortoise and house sitting in town and surrounding areas for 15+ years! From a 2 pound bouncy fluff ball to a 160 pound smiley slobbery Saint Bernard, I've had the pleasure of spending time with many delightful dogs! These wonderful pups bring so much joy to my life, and I try my darndest to return the favor! I love hitting the trails with my 4 legged friends, playing fetch, cooling off in the creek, or just lounging around cuddling on a chilly day. I'll talk to your pet a lot - ask them about their day, what they think about that squirrel over there, thank them for listening to me when I need them to, and remind them that they are such a good boy/girl! I also sing a lot, and hope that your pup doesn't mind my exquisitely out of pitch serenading. I will shower your favorite buddy with love and attention, and exercise them until we're both ready for a big bowl of water! Or take a leisurely relaxing stroll around the neighborhood with lots of stopping and sniffing if that's the preferred pace. I have a reputation for spending most of my free time with dogs and babies. I'm such a lucky gal to be surrounded by friends with adorable children and dogs - they light up my life, they remind me to find simple pleasures in each moment! I'd be delighted to meet you and your furry family member and discuss how I can be of service to you all! I have various references I can provide as well. Thank you for taking the time to read this!

About: Animal lover all of my life. My girlfriend and I have lots of experience with cats and dogs.I have lived with Mastiffs,Berners, Labs and other breeds but do not currently have a dog of my own. Twenty years of excellent references in Crested Butte and a few years of references around Denver. Definitely happy to take your dog on adventures in the mountains, Golden Gate State park etc. I live in Arvada with my girlfriend. We have plenty of room and a fenced in yard. Close to lake Arbor. Let me know if I can help. I drive Uber/Lyft so my schedule is very flexible. We are Avid hikers, snowboarders, xc skiiers ,rafters etc. We don't currently have our own dog so this is fun for us. I am happy to hike,ski,walk,play with your dog or just show up to say hi and let out from time to time. I am pretty flexible and good with dogs.

About: Hi there! All my life I have been an animal lover and for the last 8 years I have raised my own dog, and taken care of other dogs for families I used to babysit for. I can fit in any lifestyle your pet has, whether they are active or a stay-at-home. I can fit any accommodation as I work from home, love to exercise (so your dog would get plenty of it, if need be), and I'm incredibly flexible and will be normally free to help you more than not. At the same time, I raised my dog since she was a puppy so I do have experience with younger, more energetic dogs and overall I would simply love to help and treat your dogs like family. I hope we can talk soon! I'm super flexible and work from home at the moment so I basically can take care of your dogs whenever you may need it. I will certainly be more free for your dog rather than not! I will care for your pet in your home however you see fit. I do what is asked and can fit any accommodation whether your dog has a lot of needs, or simply needs a walk and some playtime. I'm happy to help however it may be!

About: I have raised 3 Belgian Mallinois, and well if you don’t know…they are quite the handful. I got my first Mal nearly 9 years ago, Her name is Frida, it was just Frida for a couple of years until she gave birth to 9 beautiful pups (i decided to keep 2 of them), they were Charlie and Daisy,I helped Frida give birth… Charlie and Daisy saw me the second they came on this earth. My life revolved around my dogs, I would tirelessly train, walk, and spend time with them. Unfortunately Charlie and Daisy have passed away due to underlying health conditions this past winter … this has left me with a lot of more free time now hence why I am here. I believe my experience with dogs will really be useful to people and pets who need it. I am open to care for a pet at anytime. My availability is currently open as well as for the foreseeable future with no plans of change. I am very attentive and detailed oriented . Both mental and physical stimulation are vital to keep our furry friends healthy and happy so walks and some training is a must! Chew toys are also a great trick to keep them distracted and those teeth clean.

About: I’m Leo. Your dog will get walks, play, photos, and real company, not an empty house. I won’t only do these things because they need it but I’m happy to. I go hiking or biking almost every day. All sizes. I’ll follow your routine. You get updates the whole time. Request a meet and greet and we’ll go from there. I bet ill love your dog more than they love me. I’m a sophomore living on the Hill in Boulder. Most days look the same, which is good for dogs. I walk to campus for about an hour of class in the morning. Then I come straight home. I make lunch, take your dog out, hang on the floor with them, throw a toy, or just let them nap next to me while I study. That stretch in the middle of the day is a few hours, so they are not sitting in an empty place waiting. Afternoon class is one to two hours. Same thing after: walk home, another outing, water, treats, and time together. Nights I am home. Your dog will not be alone for more than two hours. If they need a mid-day walk, extra play, or just someone in the room, that is already built into how my day works. I’ll treat your dog how I’d want mine (really my mom’s) to be treated. I'm happy to give you access to my Amazon Alexa so you can see and maybe even interact with your dog. My place on the Hill is set up for dogs first. Doors stay shut, trash is put away, cords and anything chewable get picked up before a guest arrives. If I have your dog, they are not loose in a room I have not already checked. I do a meet and greet so we both know the vibe before any overnight. I follow your rules on food, crate, meds, and where they sleep. I do not leave them loose with the front door or windows open. When I leave for class they are either crated if that is what you want or in a safe closed-off space, and I am never gone more than two hours. Trust for me is simple. You get photos and a short update when I get home and when we go out. If something feels off I tell you right away instead of hoping it blows over. If you also have a cat, I keep them separate from dogs unless you say they already live together. Litter, food, and a quiet room stay theirs. I do not force handling. I let them come to me. The goal is a calm house, not a chaotic one. I live alone in an apartment, so I’m happy to have your pet as a buddy.

“Leah truly loves your pets! She is attentive, asks good questions and spends time with our dog. Not just a walk, play time too! I highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of beloved fur babies, including ones with special needs since my college years. I know how important it is to find people you can trust to care for your pets.

“Morgan has been waking our dog Sidney on the days both me and my wife are at work and it's been great. She is attentive to his needs, keeps us up to date with the walks, and does different things to help keep him stimulated on the walks. We really appreciate her helping to keep our golden retriever happy while we are gone.”

About: I have loved all animals as long as I can remember. Ever since I was a little kid I have gotten excited to meet and love on new fur friends. I am lucky enough to have owned a family dog, too many fish to count, hamsters, and four ferrets of my own. I am truly an animal lover at heart. I volunteer for a local animal shelter and have fostered dogs of all kinds. My foster dog of 1.5 years was just adopted recently and I need some more pet love in my life. I have four super friendly ferrets at home that LOVE pet friends. I have worked with dogs who have behavioral issues, need extra help meeting people, and both senior dogs and puppies. I’m willing to hang with just about any pet a person could have. I currently work as an occasional babysitter so I have a very flexible schedule and have a lot of time to spend in home with your fur friends! I will care for your pets just like they are my own babies. I will always be respectful of your space and make sure to keep things neat and tidy. You never have to stress being away from your pets because they will be in good and loving hands.

“Great with my dog and reliable!”

“AJ was professional and friendly and took time to meet my new rescue dog before starting service. AJ took extra care of my dog, providing lots of care for him and communicating with photos and updates after their visit. I would highly recommend AJ!”

About: Having grown up with all sizes of dogs from a Jack Russell Terrier to a Collie, I am familiar with many different sizes and temperaments of dogs. I currently own a beautiful two year old rescue who absolutely loves other dogs. I started dog walking and house sitting for neighbors when I was 16 years old and then moved into making it my full time job. I've worked for various pet supply stores and dog boarding facilities and currently work at a holistic dog store in Boulder, CO. I am certified in pet nutrition as well as CPR for Canines and have some experience administering medication. I love being able to tire out dogs with play, knowing that is what I would expect and want from a pet sitter or walker myself. Working with dogs is a highlight of my day and i would love to work with yours.
