House Sitting in New Castle

“Sarah was absolutely fantastic with our dog! She kept us updated throughout her stay with regular messages and plenty of photos, which gave us real peace of mind. Our dog can be a bit particular at times, but Sarah was incredibly patient, attentive, and clearly knew how to make him feel comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”

About: I’ve been caring for fur babies since I graduated high school, giving both puppies and senior dogs the special attention they need. I love animals of every shape and size and treat them like my own—because let’s be honest, they run the household anyway. Your pet will get a happy, stress-free stay with plenty of love, snuggles, and top-tier spoiling. I work a full-time job during the day, but I’m available for drop-ins and visits in the late afternoons and evenings. I’m also free all day on Sundays, as well as one select weekday depending on my schedule. If you communicate your needs ahead of time, I’ll always do my best to make it happen. Your fur baby’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I come to your home so your pet can stay in their favorite place, surrounded by familiar smells and routines. I follow your instructions carefully and keep your home secure, tidy, and respected. You’ll always get clear updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Aspen was a great sitter for our dog! She was very prompt, kept us updated with messages and pictures, and left the house very clean upon her departure. We will absolutely reach out to Aspen again in the future!!”

“Kat, watched our cat for two weeks while we were on a trip. She took great care of him and sent us messages about how he was doing while we were away. She left the house in excellent shape after staying there for the duration. She is easy to work with and responds quickly. Would highly recommend.”

About: Years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I provide dependable in-home care, following your pet’s routine for comfort, safety, and happiness. I work full-time (9–5) and from home one day a week, which gives me flexibility. With my schedule I'm able to accomodate morning and evening walks, feedings, and playtime in the evenings (and lunch time when I WFH). My weekends are free, letting me spend more quality time with pets while owners are away. I care for pets in their own home, so they stay comfortable and relaxed in a familiar setting. I follow your care instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and always ensure your home is respected and secure. Pets get plenty of love, attention, and supervision every visit.

“Jasper was responsive and easy to communicate with. He sent lots of photos of our dogs and even our grumpy 13yr old senior dog loved him. Stayed with our 3 dogs for 3 days. Will definitely have him watch them again.”

“Wonderful house and pet sitter! She even handled our mischievous dog getting skunked, like a pro! Took great care of both our dog and our house. Highly recommend!”

About: My childhood was always accompanied by a furry friend or two… or three. I learned at a young age how to care for cats, dogs, hamsters, rats, and more! Animals are such a gift. I am ready to learn the specific details of care for your pet to make them feel safe and happy! I work part-time at a campground from 2-8pm Fridays and Saturdays and 8am-2pm Sundays and Mondays. I am happy to coordinate times for drop in visits, extended visits, and walks any day of the week depending on availability and proximity. I am respectful, reliable, and trustworthy. I don’t take it lightly when I am trusted with your home and your fur babies. Our pets feel best when they’re at our side. I am happy to learn how you care for your pets, so I can provide the most consistency and comfort possible for them in your absence.

About: I have been around dogs my whole life, with family, friends and neighbors all asking me to assist in dog sitting and walking! In the last few years, I have taken on serious pet sitting jobs. I have taken care of up to three dogs at a time for long periods of time, as well as taken care of cats and other smaller animals. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of availability! My schedule is flexible, so reach out if you have any pet sitting/walking needs! I love going on walks and hikes, and would love to take you pet with me! I offer house sitting services as well, and can take care of your pet in the comfort of their own home.

“Kelsey was an amazing cat sitter. She provided daily updates. I would book her again.”

About: Hello! My name is Jake and I love animals. I am a graduate from CMC Veterinary Technology with experiences in clinics, non-profit animal shelters, and personal pets. I have worked with a wide variety of animals that range from small rodents, dogs, reptiles, cats, lifestock, to the crazy exotics. All of your pets are special and I am willing to take time with special care and needs such as walks, food, medications, fluids, etc. I love getting photos and videos of your pets enjoying themselves and enjoy putting montages together. I am always happy and willing to go the extra mile in order for both owners and pets to be happy and comfortable. I am currently working a full time job from 3-11 am 6x a week, this gives me nearly most days & nights to care for pets afterwards I will give any animal 100% of my attention and love. I will respect any boundary placed by the owners and the animals. I will stay and only do what I'm there to do, unless owners have asked for more such as deep-cleaning, trash, dishes, etc.

“Natalie is wonderful. Merv took a quick liking to her. She’s trustworthy, reliable and her studying to be a vet tech is a great bonus. Il’ll be trying for Natalie 1st each time I need a sitter.”

About: I’ve had several dogs since I was a kid. Currently we have 4, including one puppy. I’m used to taking care of all dog personalities, like nervous puppies, grouchy old dogs, and hyper pups. I work occasional nights about twice a week from 4:30-10 at a restaurant. I would be out of the house at that time, but I often get cut early so we can further discuss when booking. I am comfortable crating dogs. I am also used to administering pills to dogs and cats, even those who don’t love to take their medication.

About: Hello! I am an animal lover and experienced and responsible dog and kitty owner and sitter. I work full time from home currently. Flexable on rates as well, especially for multiple animal/long term stays. My most recent pup had diabetes so I know how to give medications and shots. He also went through training classes so I know a few tricks ha! I understand plans change last minute so cancellations are understandable. Let me know if you have questions or would like to do a house visit. My home in Rifle has a big yard and trails behind to go on walks. Can’t wait to meet your fur babies! I work from home with a very flexible schedule. This makes it easy to do drop-ins and walks when your pup or kitty really needs it! I can work from my home or yours. This ensures your animals get the most attention and care while you are away. Also always willing to water plants or put garbage cans out. Having traveled a lot for work, I can appreciate having a trustworthy and helpful pet sitter!

“Jenny was absolutely incredible! She truly is so caring and compassionate, I couldn’t recommend a better pet sitter!”

About: I have my own dogs that I have been taking care of for the last 10 plus years. I also watch my families pets when they need it. I have a backyard that's fenced off for any pups that come over! I have an open schedule, so when I watch your pets. It's all about their need and focusing on them. . . . . . Everyone goes to the vet for check ups We get baths once a week We go for walks, hikes and to the groomers. If a client needs me to clean up their home. I gladly will I'll also house sit for them.

About: Since I was born I have had dogs in my life and have always had a love of caring for pets of all types. I have administered eye drops and insulin shots for family pets when they were aging. I give each pet extra love. In the past I have done overnight stays for a boss watching their two dogs; a ridgeback and pit bull along with their chameleon. I’ve had lizards, fish, and cared for my roommates snake and shepherd mix while she was out of town or working late nights. I started my business, Alpine Animal Services in 2020, and have cared for a countless number of animals. Each one I hold dear to my heart. When I say I will care for your animal and loved one, I mean it to the depths of my core and being. I promise to protect, care for, and keep your animal safe while in my care. I have carried insurance since day one to ensure extra care and safety for your loved ones. I recently obtained a certification in Animal Search and Rescue, as animal welfare is a high priority and passion of mine. I volunteer and have a close relationship with CARE in Glenwood. In progress, I will be completing a Fear Free program with ASPCA. With more plans to continue learning about animal behavior and understanding the different kinds of animals. My husband and I have rescued 6 pets together. We rescued three cats at the age of 8 weeks from; CARE, Rory (5), and Wallace (10) from the Aspen Animal Shelter. Rory is a tabby cat, Wallace is a long-haired black cat. Our most recent cat, Purrci, is not a rescued animal, she’s great either way and deserves the same love and care as a rescue, We have three dogs; lucky (12) is from aspen animal shelter and is a shih tzu/poodle mix, Zoey (10), is from CARE and is a terrier/shih tzu/poodle mix, and our youngest, Koda (3) is from Rifle Animal Shelter/Journey Home Animal Shelter, he is a black lab/shepherd mix. We also have a 6-year-old daughter who has grown up with all of these animals. The animals get a long very well. Koda loves playing with any of the animals when they are up to it. The ultimate goal for this endeavor is to have an animal sanctuary where animals and reptiles have a place to call home. Think of, those animals/reptiles, that sit in shelters for months on end, with the possibility of being euthanized. We’ll have a place for them in our sanctuary, our hearts, and home. We’re so excited for what’s to come! An ideal situation would be that the pet tolerates children, as I tend to bring my 6-year-old little girl with me from time-to-time. I am available Monday-Thursday, and Operate from 8-5pm. Services include; walks, hikes, or check-ins. I have a certification in Pet CPR via Red Cross, a certification in Animal Search and Rescue (ASAR) via Code3 and CSU, over a decade of experience volunteering at local animal shelters, animal pepper spray, and an Animal Behavior Certification.

“Ursula took great care of our dogs. Good communication. It was much easier to be away when they are in such good hands. Thank you!”

About: I have many years experience with dogs and cats, growing up with at least one dog and cat in the house; reliable house sitting for friends and family. I would want someone to treat my animal as if it was their own, so I will endure and make sure I do that, and keep them as a top priority! I live in Glenwood Springs, attending school and working in town, I am able to spend the night almost every and any night needed, but have responsibilities through the days including some Saturdays. Provide medication as scheduled, feeding, walking, brushing, playing, pup cups, or car rides. I love to get them moving, having fun, and engaging in play!
