Pet Sitting New Castle

About: I’ve been pet sitting for years, starting back in my teens, and I’m comfortable caring for a wide range of animals including dogs and cats. I have experience with both puppies and senior pets, including those who need extra attention like medication administration (including insulin) and more structured care routines. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether it’s walks, feeding, training support for young dogs, or gentle care for older pets, I adjust to each animal’s needs. I’m also happy to take care of small extras like watering plants or keeping an eye on your home while you’re away, so you can come back to everything in good shape. I work a full-time job, but I’m able to come home during my lunch break to check in on my own puppy and provide mid-day care. This keeps me consistently involved in daily pet care even during the workweek. At this time, I am only offering weekend availability for boarding, so I’m fully available to focus on providing attentive, structured care during those stays. I make sure pets are comfortable, on their normal routines, and well cared for while they’re with me. When boarding a dog in my home, I do my best to accommodate their normal routine and make them feel as comfortable as possible, like they’re at home. I have a fenced-in yard, and my own puppy enjoys plenty of outdoor playtime, so dogs who are active will get lots of safe exercise and enrichment. If a dog is more of a relaxed, homebody type, I’m just as happy to keep things calm with indoor time, rest, and companionship. I adjust to each dog’s personality and energy level. For any care—whether boarding, drop-ins, or walks—I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, routines, and any special needs or medications, to make sure each pet is cared for consistently and safely.

“Sarah is amazing! She is super communicative and made sure our girls felt loved while we were gone. She sends tons of pictures too! We will definitely book with Sarah again!”

About: I've cared for animals my whole life: dogs, cats, rats, parrots, fish, and more. Right now I share my home with three senior cats I adore, so I'm right at home with pets who need a little extra patience, a medication schedule, or just someone who reads their quirks and knows when 'she's hiding' means she's fine and when it doesn't. Whatever your pet needs, I've got it covered: feeding and fresh water, meds and pills (even the sneaky ones), playtime and walks, litter and cleanup, and overnight stays so they're never alone. I'm reliable, I show up when I say I will, and I'll send you photos and updates so you can actually relax while you're away. I'm always happy to start with a meet-and-greet so you and your pet can get comfortable with me before booking anything. Tell me your pet's routine and I'll keep it exactly the way they like it. Senior pets, anxious pets, shy pets, high-energy pets, and the occasional exotic are all welcome. I'd love to help take care of your best friend like they're my own. I do part-time software work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time for pet care throughout the day. Since I'm home for much of the day, I can handle midday visits, feedings, and check-ins that a 9-to-5 sitter can't. I'm available for morning and evening care, overnight stays at your place, and drop-ins during the day. Just tell me your pet's routine and we'll find a rhythm that works for both of us. In your home, I respect your space completely. I follow your instructions to the letter, keep doors and gates secured, stick to your pet's normal routine, and leave things exactly the way I found them. I'll send photos and updates at each visit so you always know your pet is safe, fed, and happy. I'm careful with the little things that matter: locking up when I leave, bringing in mail or packages if you'd like, and watching for anything off with your pet's behavior or health so I can flag it early. If something ever comes up, you'll hear from me right away. Above all, I treat every pet like my own and every home like I'd want mine treated, with care, respect, and attention to detail.

“Emily is excellent. She checked in with me each day and treated my dog with the love she needs. I was able to trust her with my dog and my home when I was not there. She arrived on the agreed time and dates and helped my dog during long work days when I had no one else to make sure my dog could relieve herself.”

“Natalie was amazing! She was very responsive and communicative, and she was so good with our pups. She was respectful of our home and followed our schedule and instructions for the pups so well. Our dogs loved her, and you can tell she has a lot of experience with dogs of all types. We have three rescues, each with a very different personality, but that didn't phase her at all! We would definitely book Natalie again!”

Brianna T.

“Claire was very professional, caring, and very well organized. She asked many questions that were important that we hadn't thought of and did a great job keeping us informed. She clearly loves dogs and even though our dog can sometimes be standoffish to new people, Claire was great with her and they became great friends. I would recommend Claire to ANYONE in need of the services she provides.”

About: I've had pets since I was little. My passion is to love on the four-leggeds as if they were my own. I am there to help your pets when you need to be away from them. I am solely in the business of caring for animals. I am very flexible. Don't be afraid to ask and I will tell you if I can't make it work. I will treat your home as if it were my own. My clients comment how most of the time they can't tell I've been there as I leave my surroundings in very good condition.

“Suzanne was wonderful with our pups! Sent pics and was very communicative. Our younger puppy was very calm when we returned for the day (which is rare!) and we’re thankful to Suzanne for giving some love to both of our dogs while we were out. Will definitely rebook!”

About: Hi, I’m Christina! 🐾 I’m a lifelong animal lover and professional pet groomer with 7+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’ve worked with everything from tiny pups to giant breeds, and I’m comfortable with nervous, energetic, senior, and extra-spoiled pets too! Your pets aren’t just “pets” to me—they’re family. ❤️ I believe every dog deserves patience, kindness, attention, and plenty of love while their humans are away. With my professional animal-care background, you can feel confident knowing your pup is in experienced and caring hands. I’ll keep you updated with pictures, plenty of attention, and all the belly rubs they’ll allow. 🐶🐾 I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your pets and become someone you can trust whenever you need a helping hand! I work at a veterinary office during the week, so my availability varies depending on my work schedule. I’m generally available for evening drop-ins/walks, as well as weekends. I’m happy to work with you ahead of time to find a schedule that fits your pet’s routine and needs. 🐾 Safety, trust & environment are big things in the relationship with your pet care provider. I plan to write everything you tell me down along with making copies to ensure I have all the information on your pet at all times. I also believe in sending plenty of pictures & videos of your pet to ensure that trust is built.

About: I’ve had lots of pets growing up, a variety of different dogs big and small, and some cats as well. I currently have two dogs and often pet sit for family and friends, and I also work at a doggy daycare! Although I do have more experience with dogs, I love all animals and can absolutely take care of any animals and needs they may have. I currently work a full time job as a dog daycare attendant, and my days off include Mondays and Tuesdays. My hours vary, but usually range from 7am-3pm or 2:30-8:30pm. My shifts are often shorter but expect at last two days where I work 8 hours. If I’m staying for over a week, I could even possibly bring your dog to work with me given you would want that and they are friendly! I have a decent sized yard with a fence and make sure to keep water bowls full with how hot it has been. I take my doggos for walks or even car rides when its not too hot outside, and I would definitely do the same for your doggos! Any specific care requests, like maybe your doggo has to be tucked in, or need to watch their food be “prepared” in order for them to eat it, I will do so with pleasure! Oh and of course, lots of love and play time, given thats what they want!

About: Lifelong animal, pet, and nature lover! I have been caring for other people’s pets for over 15 years. At times, life got a little too busy for me to continue with this enjoyable “work”, but now I am able to re-cultivate this passion once again. From walking your dog, to taking them on adventures and hikes, to overnight stays, I am available for your precious pet’s need. I have a Chihuahua mix of my own that I rescued in 2020, and he is such a sweetheart and a major lover of cuddling. During my downtime, I can be found reading, hiking, cleaning, or doing yoga. For a small additional fee, I would love to help you with any other needs you may have, such as house work, organizing, cleaning, or light yardwork. I strive to meet all the needs and desires of your fur bab. From walks, to hikes, to overnight stays, I aim to make myself available! I work in an office setting M-Th 8a-5p, but I typically have flexibility with many breaks and a long lunch. I work from home on Fridays. About twice a month, I am on-call on the weekends (8a-8p), and will provide more details if that overlaps with your booking. I live in Rifle, so I offer drop-in visits and dog walking from Glenwood Springs to Parachute. For overnight stays, I will travel from Aspen to Grand Junction. I have a fenced yard for potty breaks, and a doggy door that leads to my little yard. My dog doesn’t use the doggy door, so I am happy to keep it closed if that is your preference. I love to go on walks with dogs, and will walk them for whatever amount of time they are used to or suits their energy level. I have a sweet, small dog that is friendly to all animals he meets. He will play with your pet, or give your pet space, he is happy either way.

About: I have years of experience taking care of both dogs and cats. I was the main person to take care of both a cat and dog growing up starting when I was ten. I currently have two dogs, but I also love cats! My wife is a veterinarian, so I am around a lot of animals and am prepared in case of an emergency (hopefully there aren't any). Being a teacher, I have summers off and am looking for dogs to walk or check in on during the day or cats to check in on. I am currently not available to stay overnight as I also have a baby at home. I am a compassionate and caring person, which is the first thing that your dog or cat will notice about me. I will check in on them and spend time with them to make sure everything is going great when you are gone!

“Anna did a great job checking in on our cat while we were out of town, we would certainly book her again!”

Sam K.

“Kat was awesome! She checked up and took care of my furry boys (2 cats) while I was out of town for a week and a half. She sent me updates and photos after every check in. Kat is very dependable and friendly to animals. I highly recommend Kat to pet sit your little loved ones!”

Mike K.

“Katrina is the best! My dogs loved having her come over, and she took excellent care of them. I would definitely recommend, and will use her services again next time I go away.”

Chris C.

“Jake was a great communicator and made us feel at ease. Would book him again!”

“Had a great drop in experience with Natalie who booked the service within four days before the appointment. She handles our pet who was a nervous nelly during our short time away. Thumbs up emoji”

Brenton C.

“Katie is excellent! She went above and beyond what I requested to take care of my dogs while I was working long hours.”
