Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog person. Cat negotiator.
I love dogs (and cats!) of all personalities and especially love being active with them, such as going on hikes or jogs, playing fetch, or simply hanging out at the park. I love getting to know each animal's unique personality and learning what makes them them!
Cat care experience

Gaia "Vye" also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I have a large, fenced in yard with no other pets, which is great if your pet has trouble around other animals. I also live very close to North Boulder park! And when I am caring for your animal at your home, I am mindful of private spaces and boundaries, and I always make sure to entirely clean up after myself.
Ratings and reviews
Vye was a great dog and house sitter. Excellent communication and took great care of our pup.

Vye was terrific! Our dog Vesper was happy and well cared for (as well as our house). Vye sent us photos and stayed in communication about everything that went on, and went above and beyond making sure our dog was taken care of when our flight home was delayed.

Vye was great with our dog and cat! She was very understanding of both of their special needs. Vye provided prompt updates. She also dealt with an unexpected maintenance issue in our apartment. We would love to book Vye again!


Vye did an outstanding job. We look forward to having her dogsit again.

Vye was my go-to sitter for my 2 cats for 5-6 years, and I can’t recommend her enough. One of my cats had pretty severe anxiety, and the other dealt with poor bowel control, so their care wasn’t always simple — but Vye followed every instruction perfectly, from feeding schedules to brushing, litter, and medicine. She never missed a beat and always made sure both cats felt safe and comfortable, anxious tendencies and all. Beyond cat care, Vye also did quite a bit of housesitting for me — watering our plants, collecting mail, and moving the bins out for trash pickup day. She’s thorough, dependable, and clearly loves what she does. If you’re looking for a sitter who treats your home and pets like her own, Vye is the one to call.
Vye is such a warm and playful sitter, she really loved being active with the dogs instead of just passively watching. When Vye was still living in WA, she was our primary sitter for our 2 dogs; August (retriever mix) and Bonbon (aussie shepherd). She started as our sitter toward the end of August's recovery from his tenectomy surgery which caused him to become quite anxious and tentative, but she handled this with ease and was a key part in building his confidence back up. We are so grateful for her patience and encouraging spirit during that time. From there, we mostly needed her for daily walks and adventures, and some full-day sessions about once every 1-2 weeks so my husband and I could enjoy some mountain biking or climbing, which was always a bit of a drive. We miss Vye bunches and would certainly recommend her for any care your active (or healing) fur balls may need!
