About: With over 5 years of pet care experience, I know that every pet is unique—and they deserve care that’s just as special. Whether it’s an energetic walk, playful companionship, or cozy couch time, I tailor every visit to your pet’s needs, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m detail-oriented, reliable, and believe clear communication is key. You can trust that your pet is in caring, capable hands—and maybe even having a little extra fun. I’d love the chance to meet you and your furry family! I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on Sundays, and weekdays after 3pm. However, my schedule is flexible. I provide attentive care for pets, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment, maintaining routines, offering exercise and stimulation, giving affection and attention, administering medical care as needed, reinforcing positive behavior, and maintaining open communication with owners.
“Andres has been absolutely amazing! He has been amazing to work with. My pittie mix absolutely loves going for his walks with Andres. He is always on time and very professional. Would highly recommend.”

About: I have been petsitting since i was 5 years old. My love for animals started when i first met my neighbors pomeranians who i dog sat very frequently growing up. I recently stopped taking care of them because they moved to florida,but i cared for them from puppyhood until they were senior pups! I also got a pup of my own when i was 9 and trained him by myself although it was hard because he was a stubborn guy! He loved going on adventures so i would act like id take the wrong turn on walks and he'd be so happy! So if your pup loves long walks i am most definitely okay with accommodating to your puppys walk length. If your puppy is sleepy and doesnt like long walks thats okay too! I am in school, but i am available after school and on weekends! I am always available after 3 to take a puppy outside for a long walk or a feeding I am always making sure the pet is happy and comfortable. I like to make sure that they come to me when they want pets so that they can get used to me. I am always paying attention to body language and how they are reacting
“Annie has been super sweet and made getting care for my dog super easy! She came over for a meetup beforehand to make sure my dog was comfortable with her, which I appreciate.”

About: I’ve have ample experience raising dogs- though now I find myself a cat mom of 4 haha! I’m originally from Houston and would volunteer at the rodeo and shelter pretty adamantly. I’d enjoy my time advocating and caring for animals at the shelter and spay/neuter pop up events for those in need. In my neighborhood I managed to TNR over a dozen colony cats in my area and was able to send a couple young ones to happy homes :) Additionally, I have my Fear Free Shelter certification and am CPR and First Aid certified, too. My heart has always had a soft spot for pets and making them feel loved and safe as if they’re my own. My motto has always been there are no bad pets just sticky situations and certain accommodations we need to make to keep them at peace. I am freshly new to the city and wanting to make some warm connections involving my passion of animal care and wellbeing. My schedule is very flexible and open at the moment so it’s a perfect chance to explore and work on short notice. I currently have a studio but would love to house sit and do drop in visits for those in Chicago or near west loop. My goal would be to make the pet as comfortable as possible as well as bonding with the animal and humans involved haha.

About: Recently quit my corporate sales job to focus on launching my startup. Looking for furry friends to help occupy my new found down time as I work on my project. As a world traveler with a deep love for animals, I understand the importance of finding a trusted companion for your furry friend. Whether you're exploring the city or embarking on a grand adventure, I'm committed to providing a loving and caring home away from home for your pet. I currently live alone in my 1 bedroom apartment. I live a pretty minimalistic lifestyle. I don’t have any pets of my own. I’m also new to Denver so there won’t be many interactions where your furry friend will be introduced to people outside of myself. I can be as attentive as necessary since I live alone and I’m currently funemployed.

About: Hi :) My name is Hannah Xavier, but I prefer to go by Xavier. I have loved dogs since I was a child- so much so that my first job was working in a dog boarding/ training facility. Since then, I have had my own dogs, volunteered in shelters, joined service dog training clubs, and cared for the pets of others all over the world. I will love your dog as my own, provide all the cuddles and maintained training requested, and leave your home cleaner than you left it. I am currently working mostly remotely, and a pretty big homebody- with the exception of my dance classes)- so am happy to hang at home with your baby/babies as much as needed. I will be providing care for your pets in your home and am respectful of your instructions for both pet safety and general home care.
“Natalia was great! She reacted to a last minute request, was very flexible on scheduling when to do the first introduction and most importantly was on time and great with the dogs!”

About: I bring a calm, safety‑first approach to pet care thanks to my background in hands‑on operations and emergency response. I’ve worked in fast‑paced environments where attention to detail, communication, and animal safety were non‑negotiable, and that carries directly into how I care for pets. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I’m especially good with pets who need a little extra patience or structure. I’m reliable, observant, and always make sure animals feel secure, whether we’re out on a walk or settling in at home. My goal is simple: keep your pet safe, happy, and understood. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I keep a consistent, structured schedule. I’m available for drop‑ins and walks during the day and early evenings, and I build my week so I can give each pet focused, unrushed attention.

I take a calm, safety‑first approach in every home I enter.

I’m attentive to doors, gates, and windows, and I always double‑check that your pet is secure before I leave. I keep the environment clean and low‑stress, whether that means refreshing water, tidying up after meals, or making sure litter boxes are fully cleaned. I’m respectful of your space, careful with your belongings, and focused on giving your pet a safe, predictable experience while you’re away.

“Eunice did a great job communicating AND being independent with taking care of Zoey. She provided a great update and managed to capture Zoey’s full personality in her report card and photos. We will definitely book with Eunice again!”

“Jacob was my first dog walker for Bear. He arrived later than booked but communicated his arrival. Jacob was able to answer my questions and we spoke about Bear and his behavior. Jacob returned with a happy pup after an hour. I like the report card that shows the walk they went on. I would recommend.”

“Omar is great! He’s walked my dog a few times and will be watching both my dogs while I’m on vacation next week. He’s responsive and friendly. He’s on time. He follows all my instructions and was great with my dogs. I’m looking forward to having him as my permanent sitter!! 10/10 recommend.”

Damaris is my go-to walker. Super responsive- even did a last min walk for me which was super helpful. Damaris doesn’t just walk dogs, she really cares about animals and even gives my cats some love and attention. They watch my animals 4x a week and I’m super thankful that I can go to work without worrying about my babies.
