“Rose did an outstanding job with our family members. She communicated immediately upon request for service. When we met she took notes and asked questions about their care. In addition to that I needed a second caregiver because Rose was not available and she met the second sitter and walked them thru all of the details of care.”

“Laura was great with my dog! She sent daily pics and kept me in the loop the whole time, which I really appreciated. My dog isn’t comfortable with everyone right away, but I think she warmed up to Laura quickly because of her natural, caring instincts. I came home to a tidy home and a well cared for pup!”

About: Hello there! My name is Alistair, and I have been fortunate enough to be surrounded by dogs throughout my entire life. Growing up, I had the incredible bond with my childhood dog, Maxamus the Cockerspaniel. Together, we embarked on an exciting journey from South Africa to the United States at the beginning of last year. Sadly, Maxamus recently passed away at 16, leaving a void in my heart. However, this experience has motivated me to share the love and care I have for dogs with other furry companions. Being a devoted dog sitter, you can trust me to provide exceptional care for your pup. I have a wealth of experience in handling various situations, including medication administration, managing separation anxiety, and providing specialized care for dogs with joint issues or arthritis. It's my utmost priority to ensure that every dog I care for receives the attention, affection, and support they need. One thing that sets me apart is my genuine passion for snuggling up and going on thrilling adventures with dogs. I believe in creating a deep connection with each dog, understanding their unique needs, and tailoring my care to suit their individual personalities. By entrusting your furry friend to me, you can rest assured knowing that they will receive the utmost love, compassion, and companionship they deserve. I can't wait to embark on this exciting journey of caring for your dog and creating unforgettable memories together! I currently own a small business in South Africa that I am able to run remotely from home here in Denver. I am fortunate enough to have plenty of time to spend with doggos! I have a comfortable apartment that is no stranger to doggos. I am used to taking my dog out 3/4 times a day depending, but can accommodate more potty and walk breaks if needed. Doggos are allowed on the furniture ❤️

About: I started out my pet-sitting business by taking care of people's home gardens when they left town. Many of my clients had pets and asked me to pet-sit while they were away. Over the years I have obtained many loyal clients who feel confident that their precious babies are being looked after with lots of loving attention. I am a caregiver at heart and I show my love by engaging with the animals, belly rubs, long walks and by anticipating needs! I take detailed notes of dietary requirements, allergies and other medical conditions and will very carefully cater to every need. I quickly bond with animals since I give my full love and attention and and go above and beyond to make them happy! I always miss the animals when I have to leave them! Thank you for your kind consideration!

About: I am a dog lover and would love to get my own pup but until now, my lifestyle hasn’t allowed for it! I am a trail runner and outdoor lover - I love getting outside with dogs - for a short jaunt or a 4 hour adventure! I am also happy to spend time playing with your dog at home. As a Dartmouth graduate, I am dependable, organized and love to be with your dog! I will run, hike, walk, ski or do basically any outdoor activity with your dog depending on their energy levels. I will spend time with them outdoors and ensure they are plenty tired for a nice relaxing day :) I live right on the west end of town - your dog will have plenty of time to roam whether it’s a quick outside break or a longer walk / run!

“Britta is amazing! Britta checked in for potty breaks with our pup while we were away for the day and also stayed with her for an extended period of time at our house when we were out of town. She is very professional and punctual. Our dog can be a little wary of new people but Britta was patient and very sweet with her. I highly recommend using Britta for all your dog needs.”

About: Hi! I’m Rubie. I am a huge animal lover and have owned and taken care of both cats and dogs all of my life. My priority is the safety and comfort of your pet while I’m taking care of them. I work part time elsewhere, however when I’m taking care of your pet it will be on a day where I can dedicate my full time to walking, watching, and playing with them. Depending on your pets needs we can explore the mountains, or stay safely inside my private home. Overnight the pet is likely to stay in my spacious room.

About: Hello fellow dog lovers! With over 20 years of experience owning and caring for dogs, I understand the deep bond between humans and their furry companions. I’ve recently moved to Silverton and, though I cannot host pets in my rental, I’d love to take your dog for a walk or house sit where they feel most comfortable- your home! I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to provide care both during and outside of regular business hours. Whether it’s a midday walk, evening playtime or weekend adventure, I’m here to ensure your dog receives the attention, love and exercise they deserve. Let’s connect and discuss how I can offer your dog the right care and attention to make you feel comfortable when you can’t be with them. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! I work from home and have a fairly flexible schedule! I can provide pet services within or outside of regular business hours- let’s discuss your pets needs and I can likely fit them in to my schedule, no problem! I love clients who offer detailed lists of their pets needs and daily routines! I used to do the same with my dog and know that following something like this gives everyone involved (dogs included!) ease of mind.

“Sierra took our dogs on a mountain hike while we explored Telluride for the afternoon. Her lovely, sweet dog Aspen kept our dogs company on the hike. She sent us lot of pictures and even took them wading in a cool stream. What more could our city dogs ask for? Sierra is soft spoken and kind and our dogs loved her right away. I would highly recommend Sierra to anyone in the area.”

They will be treated as my own. 💛 🏡 YEARS of experience house & ranch sitting. Ask for references! 🏡 Comfortable with complex routines involving pets & livestock. (i.e. dogs, cats, horses, cattle, chickens, goats, pigs, rabbits, working dogs, etc…) 🏡 The goal is for you to return to a clean home & healthy, happy pets! 🏡 Will review a list of questions prior to your departure covering pets, livestock, chores, & home maintenance! Attention to these details are important! (i.e. vet info, trash day, water shut-off, etc...) 🏡 IF staying overnight, all linens, trash, dishes, etc.. will be cleaned and replaced prior to your return! No one wants to clean when they get home from a trip. 🏡 NEVER will I ask to bring my pets or someone else to your home. DOG WALKING: 🐶 Happy to walk BIG or little dogs! They don’t need perfect leash manners. 🐶 Let’s go for a 30 min free “consultation” walk. Make sure it’s a good fit! 🐶 Willing to follow any training protocols you currently have in place. 🐶 Have my own sturdy leashes or can use yours, whichever is preferred! 🐶 Will only walk one client’s dog(s) at a time. 🐶 Very conscious of our surroundings to avoid conflict with other passing people, dogs, wildlife, bicycles, etc… Also carry deterrent spray! 🐶 No “lolly-gaggin” here! Let's get those pups out the door asap to maximize walk time! 🐶 During the walk, happy to keep them moving to burn some energy -but also get some sniffing in as that provides great mental stimulation! DROP-IN VISITS: 👋 Weekdays & Weekends -my timing is flexible! 👋 Dedicated to quickly doing chores & MOSTLY making your pets feel special! 👋 The ONLY reason I’ll have my phone out is to send cute update pics. 📸 About Me: I've always had a passion for animals, and was raised with dogs, cats, horses, pigs, goats, cows, chickens, birds, fish, hamsters, etc... Through high-school I worked for a horse boarding facility cleaning stalls, exercising horses, and ensuring diet & blanketing protocols were followed with precise detail. After high-school, I spent four years wrangling for guest ranches in the summer, packing for outfitters in the fall, and housesitting during the off seasons! All this to say, I have met and cared for a huge variety of animals under various circumstances. I keep a watchful eye out for illness or injury, and feel confident in my responses to emergency situations. I'm not afraid to ask questions when I'm unsure, either! I take pride in following your routine's precisely, sharing updates frequently, and giving you the greatest peace of mind that your pets, plants, & home are in good hands while you're away. Currently I'm studying for my Bachelor's degree, full-time via online courses. This means I will not leave your pets for extended periods while boarding, have flexibility to schedule visits that best suit your pet's needs, and can "work from your home" while housesitting if need be. I have a lot of experience with senior pet care, and am confident in my ability to keep your puppy's training on track while you're away! Please reach out with any questions, I'd love to discuss your situation more and see if we'd be a good fit! **Update - 5/5/25: Currently only BOARDING small to medium dogs. Currently raising Leuko (the newest addition to the family!!!) and feel it's best to keep our house guests on the smaller side for now. Please check back in the future once Leuko is more grown up, I'd love to start taking on bigger dogs again! My schedule is flexible, as I'm a full-time student working on earning my Bachelor's degree online from home. This means your pet will not be left alone for extended periods of time, and I can adjust my schedule to fit your pet's needs! BOARDING & DOGGY DAY CARE: Both my back yard (large, mostly dirt) and front yard (smaller, grassy) are secured by a 6ft wooden privacy fence. Despite it being secure, your pet will not be left unattended outside! Toys are plentiful as well as lick mats, food puzzles, and pupsciles. Of course I’d only supply treats cleared by you! Should I need to leave for a short period of time (2 hours or less), I have live cameras to keep an eye out. Your dog(s) would be separated from my dogs, to ensure everyone's happiness and safety! Of course, they would still have access to comfy beds / furnishings, water & food if they free feed. HOUSE SITTING: My goal is to take the utmost care to follow all routines and directions! Plus, strive to keep your pets healthy and home tidy! I will watch for physical injuries, monitor their "excrements" for signs of illness, and watch for conditions across ALL your pets / livestock including: ear infections, pink-eye, bloat, colic, abscesses, UTI's, etc... In addition to keeping an eye on pet health, I take watching for property issues like broken fences, leaking pipes, strange appliance noises, etc… seriously as well! I want to make sure your home is the way you left it, if not better! I’m fine with lengthy ranch routines morning and night. Again if questions arise or illness or injury is suspected in any of your animals --I will reach out with photos right away. I do have experience navigating small & large animal emergencies and react quickly to these situations!
