LGBTQIA Couple with Smooshed Cat

Pet care experience

We are communicative, responsible, warm, friendly, pet lovers who will take good care of your pet. I worked for a dog and cat care company, walking dogs, playing with cats, and staying in peoples' homes caring for their animals in Denver. Amy has owned both dogs and cats, and together we have cared for our own cat for numerous years. During the pandemic we volunteered as dog and cat foster parents. Now that we have moved back to my home state, we are looking to support local pet owners with their boarding needs.

I had the pleasure of entrusting Caryn and Amy with the care of my cats for six days, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience. Their exceptional cat-sitting skills and genuine love for animals truly set them apart. Caryn's attention to detail was commendable. She followed all the instructions I provided meticulously, ensuring that my cats' routines were maintained and their specific needs were met. It was evident that she took the time to understand each cat's unique personality, preferences, and quirks. Toad, their own cat, was an absolute delight and a gracious host. Caryn and Amy took the time to make sure my cats were comfortable in their new environment before introducing them to Toad. When they were introduced, Toad welcomed my cats into their home with open paws, creating a warm and friendly environment. The camaraderie between Toad and my cats was heartwarming to witness, and I'm grateful that they got along. Caryn and Amy’s dedication to providing a safe and comfortable space for my cats was evident in every interaction. They went above and beyond to create a stimulating and nurturing environment for them, ensuring they received plenty of playtime, affection, and treats. The regular updates and photos she shared with me during my trip brought a smile to my face and reassured me that my cats were in excellent hands. Caryn and Amy’s professionalism, reliability, and genuine love for animals make them an outstanding cat sitter. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and compassionate caretaker for their furry friends. My cats returned home happy, relaxed, and clearly content with their time spent under Caryn and Amy’s attentive care. They truly exceeded my expectations, and I am incredibly grateful for their exceptional service.

Caryn was an AMAZING dog sitter for us when we had to go out of town on a quick trip. Our Snoopy girl isn't alone much as either my husband or I are home during the day so I was happy that Caryn not only was around during the day quite a bit but was able to take Snoopy on numerous walks and to the dog park occasionally. It definitely helped me enjoy the trip more knowing that Snoopy was with such a loving, caring dog/house sitter. (And she sent numerous pics throughout her stay so we could see that snoopy was indeed having a great time with her new-found friend.) Caryn also went above and beyond by doing some extras like getting our trash and recycling out on trash day so we didn't have that piling up as well as generally keeping things neat and tiddy and pretty much better than we left it. I would highly recommend Caryn if you're looking for a true dog lover that will look after your four-legged friend and give them just as much love and care that you do! We will certainly use her again!!!

If you are searching for a responsible, caring, compassionate, dependable, and trustworthy dog sitter/walker, look no further!! Caryn has cared for my dogs on multiple occasions and they are always so happy to see her and spend time with her! She is honest, straight forward, and reliable. Caryn is easy to get a hold of and work with. She will always show up and be there for you and your pet. Your dog will be so happy that you picked her!!

Currently we are only sitting for cats. We are located on the third floor of an apartment building and we keep our door closed and locked. There is a long hallway our cat loves to run down, high places to jump and perch, and plenty of soft places to snuggle and lay. All of our windows have secure screens and most of them remain closed. If your cat or dog doesn't get along with cats and you plan on reaching out to ask us to board, please know we have our own cat in our apartment.

Our cat is gentle and chill. He enjoys forging friendships with other cats and dogs but prefers friends who are not too pushy or aggressive playmates. We are not caring for dogs at this time and can only host indoor cats.

A typical day

Not caring for dogs at this time. Toad, our cat, has several toys he is willing to share with other cats including stuffed veggies and sushis, a laser, a cactus scratching post, catnip, and plenty of boxes!
