About: I have Managed 2 different dog kennels with ~40 dogs each over the past 4 years in Alaska. I have primarily worked with Alaskan Malamutes and Alaskan Huskies age range 3 days to 14 years. I have volunteered at rescue kennels as well, and have worked with all different dog personalities! I grew up with dogs, and have one of my own, Daisy, my rescue girl. I take care of my partner's dog, Xena, like she is my own as well. I am pretty nomadic and never really work a proper 9-5, giving me the flexibility to be at your house to take care of your animals whenever you need. I understand animal care is always top priority and there is no time to 'clock out' when watching your loved ones! I am happy to adhere to any feeding schedule, and take a dog on a leashed walk or off leash time in a backyard/fenced in area. I am a very active person and complete most of my outdoor activities with my dog. If you dog is high energy as well and would like to come along on a hike, bikejour or skijour I am happy to take them along. If you would like your dog to socialize, my dog daisy loves other dogs but is never overbearing.

“Great communication, and watched after our dog with care.”


“Shawna was absolutely fantastic! We hired her last minute for a drop in visit to our house. One of our dogs is extremely shy around most people but he warmed up to her very quickly.”

“Desiree is so awesome with my two cats! They are normally afraid of new people but warmed up quickly and love playing with her! It’s nice to go away on vacations and know that they are in good hands!”

About: I was raised to care for animals—especially dogs—and it's something I’ve carried with me throughout my life. With years of personal experience as a dog companion and time spent volunteering at shelters, I’ve developed a deep love for dogs and a natural ability to connect with them. If I could, I’d adopt an older pup at the local Buena Vista shelter today! But with a busy 9–5 schedule, I know I can’t currently provide the full-time attention a dog deserves. That said, I’m 23, new to Chaffee County, living in Poncha Springs and working in Buena Vista—and I’d love to help you care for your pup. Whether it’s taking your dog out for a walk, giving them a fun day away while you're at work, or just helping out during a landlord inspection, I’m ready. My goal is to build community and make animal loving friends! The extra cash is nice, but connecting you and your pup are more important. This varies based on what special needs your pup may have. I'm ready to do the extra walks, the special feeding schedule, or medications if you show me before hand how to do it!

“Kari did a great job with our cat! Very happy!”


“Cielo was an excellent care giver! We were able to meet up beforehand and she asked thoughtful questions about our dog’s. She visited our dog 4x, providing cute photos and notes each time. Highly recommend Cielo!”


“Cassidy is an excellent communicator and took great care of our kitten during a drop-in visit.”


“Heavy D seemed to love his care from Kristen even though he can be a bit shy. Kristen was careful to only feed Heavy the prescribed amount so that he can try to lose an lb. Or two! We would definitely have her care for Heavy D again!”


About: I’ve had dogs and cats forever and have been housesitting and taking care of others animals since I moved to CO. Let me know how I can help you.

“Natalie (Foxey) was so flexible with our schedules, and the dogs loved her. She was great. Highly recommend.”


“Miranda was amazing with our 2 pups! We have one dog who is a rescue and afraid of strangers. We are very mindful who we leave him with, and hired Miranda for 3 drop in visits to our house. By Miranda's 3rd visit he was best friends with her! Very professional, communicative and sent us a ton of photos while we were out of town.”

“I’m so lucky to have found Elena!!! I could have not have hoped for a more responsible and loving person to care for my 2 girls. She truly allowed me to rest easy during my vacation. I got daily updates on my girls and she also sent me pictures. Elena’s care is above and beyond! Rest assure your pets are in good hands with her I highly recommend her service as you will not find anyone more trustworthy, professional, responsible, awesome and caring. Thank you so much Elena!!❤️❤️❤️❤️”
