“This was our second time having AJ look after our dog. AJ was again great with our two dogs. They both really liked her. It was our new dog Lucy's frist time being watched by AJ. Lucy loved AJ and was AJ's new buddy. We will definitely use AJ again and recommend them to anyone needing a pet sitter. AJ communicated through out the day with us. It's nice being able to leave the dogs and know they were being well cared for.”
“Very happy with Kendra. She did great with my cats and they really warmed up to her pretty quickly. They are usually pretty shy. I really appreciated the check-ins to let me know when she started and ended each visit, as well as pictures. That really gave me piece of mind. She was always very close to, if not right on time for each visit (Rover has a built in 30 min. window on req. times). Highly recommend.”
“Elizabeth took great care of my cat while we were out of town. She was so understanding when our schedules changed and he was a happy kitty to see her. I would definitely recommend her for your furry family members.”
“Alissa really helped me with Chumley! He absolutely loves her, and they bonded very quickly. I have no reservations about hiring Alissa again should the need arise. Thank you, Alissa!”
About: Pet lover and owner looking to provide peace of mind while providing high quality care for your fur babies. Finding affordable, quality pet care can be stressful. I have extensive experience handling pets of all sizes. Whether you are in need of a one time service or extended service, it would be a pleasure to care for your fur baby. I have a pretty flexible schedule. I am typically available every day of the week. I am available to provide services/potty breaks every 4-8 hours. If I am caring for a pet in your home, I follow all instructions provided to me to ensure the comfort and safety of your pet. If caring for a pet in my own home, I ensure safe introduction of pets (in a neutral environment). I also ensure they have their own space. Pets would not be left unsupervised while care is being provided.
About: I will treat your fur baby as if they were my own. Years of experience in watching family and friends pets. I cater to you I work Mon-Fri, but do come home at lunch for an hour if I’m boarding at my house. I have weekends off and open availability I have a fenced yard and have friendly playful fur babies too. I will accommodate to medication or dietary needs, we can crate if needed.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life as well! I’ve also currently got three boys myself! A frenchie, a Yorkie mix, and a Rhodesian Ridgeback! So I’ve got a wide variety of skill when it comes to the size of your pup! Ive got plenty of experience handling different sized buddies! And with my experience in the veterinary field so your furry best friend is gonna be in good hands. It would fit in perfectly with my week! I’m pretty much free nearly all the time and if not I’ll make sure I can squeeze in some time! I’m very careful and I make sure I get a full written out detail of what’s expected of me. I’ll guarantee that your pup gets the best care. My boys are all very well taken care off! They get special food and have free rein of the yard. They also have a pool for the hot seasons so they can get their swim on!! I also make sure to keep my place cool or warm depending on the weather to ensure that they’re all good. Your pup will never worry in my hands!
About: I have had dogs in my life since childhood. I have cared for many different sizes and breeds of dogs, including puppies and senior dogs. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs and administering medication. I have taken college courses in animal behavior and went through training courses with my own dog. I was a dog Mom to a handicapped dog for 11 years, so I definitely have the patience to deal with special needs. I also keep my nails long for those extra good belly scratches 🥰 I have a flexible, rotating work schedule that allows me to dedicate my time to caring for your pets without the distractions of my own pets, children, or home responsibilities. I'm available to stay with your furry friends as needed and can work around your schedule to ensure their needs are met. While I may need to leave for work, I will communicate openly with you about my work schedule and your pet's specific requirements in advance. If you have a high-anxiety pet or a young puppy that needs more attention, I can adjust my schedule to spend additional time at home, ensuring they receive the care and comfort they deserve. I provide loving care for your pets right in the comfort of their own home. I will keep your cats indoors unless otherwise requested, and ensure they receive exercise and plenty of attention. Dogs will be exercised according to their needs and your specific guidelines. If you’re comfortable, I’d love to take them to the park or explore scenic hiking trails together. Safety is my priority, so I will never allow your dog off-leash unless they are in a secure, fenced area and you’ve given prior approval to do so. We will enjoy daily walks with a leash and harness, unless you specify otherwise. Additionally, I will minimize contact with other dogs and animals unless you give explicit instructions to do otherwise. For those dogs that require crating, I have a spacious crate available to ensure their comfort and security. Your pets will receive all the attention and care they need while feeling safe in their familiar environment!
About: I have taken care of dogs all throughout high school and college. I am a current online graduate student who loves to spend time outside with my furry pups and yours! I am an active online graduate student at Colorado State University who is always looking for an excuse to get outside, exercise, and play with dogs! I have two dogs of my own at home who love going for car rides, playing in the front yard, and get super excited when they see their leashes.
“I found Nichole last minute for a five day trip I was taking to come check on, walk, and feed my great pyrenees senior dog. She was excellent and professional, as well as trustworthy and easy to get along with. She sent me photos and gave me an update each time she stopped by, and was great with my dog. She gave my dog her medicine, made sure to keep her water full, and was always on time for her drop-in visits. I'll definitely use Nichole as my sitter again should the need arise. Highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve grown up caring for horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, and have been pet sitting (and ranch sitting) every kind of pet and live stock since I could drive as a part time job. I currently have my own dog who is very anxious, so I am experienced in higher maintenance pets of all kinds. I work from home full time, so I am very flexible to check in and hangout with pets at any hour of the day! Depending on my pet care load, I can stay with animals all weekend or just pop in for a few hours. Whatever is needed. If my dog (who is very mellow) is allowed to come over and play, I can stay all at in your home to care for your animals. Otherwise, I am very accommodating for when you would need me to come by and hang out with everyone. I’m happy to take pets out, clean up, feed, and give them all the attention they need to be comfortable until you come home.
