“Audrey was an amazing overnight dog-sitter. She gave me regular updates on how my older anxious dog was adjusting, and some photos letting me know Willow was super excited to make a new friend. I travel a lot for work, and it's good to know I have reliable help ready to go”
About: What can I say, I love dogs!!! Iv'e been around dogs my whole life, beginning with my Husky that loved chaperoning me around our backyard when I was a baby. I'm very grateful to have the experience with a dog since youth! I was raised around other animals too, bunnies, mice, and hamsters. Lol but I bond especially well with dogs. I hope to make new memories with your pet if you choose me! I am flexible and willing to work around your dogs schedule and my own. We can work something out to meet both our needs of course. I have plenty of time to care for your pet! I can be available overnights if needed if you are going away on a trip.
About: When your dog stays with me, they’re not just getting walked and fed — they’re getting love, routine, and real companionship. With years of hands-on experience, a calm and confident approach, I treat every dog like my own. Whether your pup loves playtime, belly rubs, or just a quiet spot to nap, I tailor care to their unique needs. Reliable, communicative, and fully insured — because your peace of mind matters as much as their tail wags. While I maintain a full-time weekday schedule, I’m committed to providing attentive and reliable care during evenings and weekends. Though my availability is limited during standard work hours, I’m sometimes able to provide midday care on a case-by-case basis. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities—I create a calm, secure setting where they can feel at home. I’m committed to maintaining a reliable and pet-friendly environment built on trust, safety, and personalized care.
“I really appreciated Misty responding to my request for house/pet sitting so promptly. I had a last minute travel change. David came to my house right away to introduce himself to me and my Tank and Chloe. They kept me updated via text and pics daily. I came home to a clean house and happy pets! What more could this girl ask for? I look forward to having them pet/house sit again soon. Thank you very much.”
“Em was amazing in every way. If I could leave 100 stars I would. Our home and our pups were cared for an loved, we got photos and updates often and returned to perhaps a cleaner home than we left. The pups love Em & Fern and we have already rebooked them two come back in a few weeks. I can not recommend Em enough!!”
“Many thanks to Danielle! She saved the day when I needed to make a surprise trip to Utah to bring home a new puppy. Tully was so happy with Danielle and Kiwi that I think he was sorry to see me home! Danielle is terrific, you couldn’t ask for better.”
“Great communication, photos and updates throughout the stay. Very friendly and professional, supportive and thoughtful. Related very well to both the doggy and the kitty, as well as considerate regarding the house and its needs. Hopefully we’ll be able to connect again for future needs.”
“Fantastic! Ola was so great! :-) The dogs and cats loved her, and you could tell they were happy, content and well-loved when we returned from our short vacation. Ola was also very willing to water our outside plants and rose bushes, so they wouldn't suffer or die in the summer heat. All the plants were in awesome and healthy shape when we returned. The house was clean and well maintained, as well. Thank you bunches and bunches, Ola!”
“Meghan was kind, respectful, responsible and fun for our pup, Luna. I would love to have her stay with Luna again.”
“Hannah is such a wonderful sitter. Our dogs just love her and she takes such good care of them. She has such a good sense about animals and is just generally a joy to work with.”
“Tina took great care of the house and pets. The communication was quick and responsive and included photos which helped us feel reassured leaving our animals with somebody new. We returned home to 4 happy and healthy pets and a place that looked cleaner than when we had left.”
About: All my life I have loved taking care of animals, which is why I worked for DogMountainLodge, a local pet lodging facility all through my high school career. There I gained experience in dogs with medical needs as well as disabilities. I was in charge of keeping track of medications and other needs for not just dogs but cats as well. I also gained experience on how dogs socialize with other unfamiliar dogs, and giving special attention for dogs who did not. I’ve also had experience in taking care of my own pets, as well as friend’s and family’s pets. I have been a pet sitter for many years through personal connections, but I would like to expand my services. As of right now, I am home during my summer break from college. I have a part-time job during the week, but my hours are flexible as I can build my own schedule. I am very attentive when it comes to pet sitting through my experience with my own pets. I am very adjustable to what each client’s pet may need, including long walks, short walks, play time, or just love and attention.
“Robert did an excellent job taking care for the most important member of this household. He also left the house in perfect condition. Would I use him again? Definitely!”
About: I'll walk, sit and board your dog while you're away! Whatever you need. I'm a graduate student with open availability. I can come to your place for a quick or long visit. While boarding, I'll feed and walk; watch movies; play or just lounge around. I was raised on a farm with many animals and currently have a well-behaved dog of my own. Let me know the fine details of what you prefer and I'll make sure to see it through. I live near a dog park and I travel around the outdoors and hiking places your dogs will love, too. I look forward to hearing from you. I have a friendly cat and can care for cats, too! Animals of all types are welcome. I’m a graduate student that loves animals! I was raised on a farm and look forward to caring for whatever pet you have. I have open availability so anytime is a good time! I have a fenced yard and take my friendly dog to a local, fenced dog park. Pets are welcome to roam around my house and lounge as they please, or bird watch outside in the yard.
“Victoria had great communication with me while I was away and was on time taking care of my girls.”
About: Hi there! My name is Chandra, I am a big dog lover with two of my own, Murphy and Alo. Both dogs are rescues, super friendly, super laid back and always eager to make new friends. I live in a Earthship here in Taos, with plenty of acreage for the pups to explore and play. My property is also fenced in if your pooch tends to bolt. Love taking the animals for day hikes or quick dips at the river. My dogs go pretty much everywhere with me. My employer welcomes dogs to come spend the day at the office and even built a beautiful outside fenced in dog yard. Never a shortage of toys, treats or pets! I look forward to meeting your wonderful guy or gal! I work from home remotely, so my pups are with me 24/7. If I have a errand to run my Rover buddy comes right along with. I am with my dogs at all times. I’m super flexible as to when each dog wants to go outside (no set schedule). If your pup displays a desire to go outside, we go…. Multiple walks are good in my book. If your dog has a routine feeding program, I follow it. Whatever instructions the owner sets in place.
“Katie was an amazing dog sitter to my 2 dogs- one of which is a mouthy 4-month-old puppy! She was also a very respectful and responsible house sitter- leaving the house in immaculate condition. Katie has great energy and communication. I knew the dogs were in her loving and competent hands, which allowed us to truly enjoy our trip away. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life including Great Danes, cats, bunnies, gerbils, fish and have been dog and cat sitting professionally for three years. Recently I lived and worked on a thousand-acre farm caring for cows, horses and goats, doing everything from feeding, cleaning and even bottle feeding. Bottom line is I love pets, and would love to meet your four-legged family members!! I currently work from my computer so I am very mobile and happy to be flexible with scheduling, etc. I love spending time with all animals so I make it a priority to fit this kind of work in. *If you have multiple pets and my site is quoting a large number for your sitting request, please know I am happy to look closer and find a good price for all! If I am giving care at your home my number one priority is your animal’s safety. That’s best implemented by focusing on your (the owner’s) rules and daily routines. Once I establish that, I focus on creating a special bond with your pet—it’s like they’re getting a new friend. If I’m boarding at my house my number one priority is to create a new and special routine that reflects their home routine but with new special elements. I have a very large yard and a safe neighborhood to take pets on walks, and as long as they are happy sharing space with a cat we have a really good time!
