“Sarah was awesome with my Great Dane. She texted me updates and pictures and I knew Stella was in good hands with her. Already planning to have her dog/house sit again next month! Highly recommend her.”


“Kat, watched our cat for two weeks while we were on a trip. She took great care of him and sent us messages about how he was doing while we were away. She left the house in excellent shape after staying there for the duration. She is easy to work with and responds quickly. Would highly recommend.”


About: Friends say I’m thoughtful, responsible, and passionate and I’ve taken my compassionate nature to caring for “dog babies.” I relocated to the valley in November and am eager to make more furry friends here! I had several repeat overnight and walking clients while living in Chicago. Trusted Pet and House Sitting also granted me the opportunity to pet sit a lovely lab and retriever for 2 weeks in Durango, CO last fall. We had a blast hiking amongst the colorful leaves. I’m an energetic go-getter with a heart that craves new experiences, staying active, and intimate connections. If I’m not soaking up community events or doing something fun outside, you can find me painting and crafting at home. I have a flexible schedule working various shifts in the bar/restaurant industry. I can accommodate weekday and weekend needs and keep pups exercised and loved. Pups are allowed to roam the home and socialize and play with my own pup, a 6 year old terrier/shepherd rescue. I typically bring Bob with me for house visits and walks so your pup should be friendly with other dogs. We love to hike, visit the river and play with squeak toys in the house. If your pup is anything like Bob, they’ll move from place to place with short naps, and follow me everywhere.

“Ashley took great care of my home and my pup Rue while I was out of town for a few days. She followed all of my instructions and kept to Rue’s typical routine, and was very accommodating to some last-minute schedule changes. I will definitely keep Ashley in mind for my next trip out of town!”


About: My entire life we have had a motley variety of pets in our home. Dogs and cats have always been our staples! I love the fun, quirky, excited energy dogs give out at every age! I know a few training techniques for small commands like sit and lay down, most of our dogs have been rescues so we were more focused on earning their trust and working through anxieties than working through commands. They have always been the best most loyal and protective out of all❤️ I do bring one, occasionally both of our kids on overnight visits so I do ask for kids friendly pets on those, however drop in visits are sometimes flexible! As I am doing this to stay at home with my littles I am extremely flexible with dates and times, unless ofcourse I have prior obligations to other sitting jobs. I am open to one time, weekly, monthly or days on end. Whatever you need help with I will gladly help! For your pets comfort and convenience for you I do visits at your home. No need to pack up your pets! I will be on my way! However if there is an emergency while you are gone I can definitely take them into my home❤️

“Laura is the best. She took such good care of our dog, and our house. She is thoughtful, loving with our dog, and very tidy. And she is a vet professional. What more could you ask for! I would highly recommend Laura without hesitation.”


About: Hello! My name is Jake and I love animals. I am a recent CMC Veterinary Technology graduate with experiences in clinics, non-profit animal shelters, and personal pets. I have worked with a wide variety of animals that range from small rodents, dogs, reptiles, cats, lifestock, to the crazy exotics. All of your pets are special and I am willing to take time with special care and needs such as walks, food, medications, fluids, etc. I love getting photos and videos of your pets enjoying themselves and enjoy putting montages together. I am always happy and willing to go the extra mile in order for both owners and pets to be happy and comfortable. I am currently working a full time job from 3-11 am 6x a week, this gives me nearly most days & nights to care for pets afterwards I will give any animal 100% of my attention and love. I will respect any boundary placed by the owners and the animals. I will stay and only do what I'm there to do, unless owners have asked for more such as deep-cleaning, trash, dishes, etc.

“You can’t get a better pet sitter than Chonlada! We are so grateful to her for staying at our house for 8 days and watching our two dogs and elderly cat, who required extra care. It’s hard to find someone you trust to leave your loved ones with, let alone all your processions, but I truly feel comfortable with her. We could tell when we got home that our pets were well loved. No complaints, just gratitude. Thanks Chonlada!”


About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats of my own for the past 18 years, and offering services on Rover since 2021. I love going for long walks with the pups and cuddling with kitties. My last pooch crossed the rainbow bridge at 14 years, so I am familiar with senior dog care and administering topical and oral medications. I’m home on weekends, and working a 9-5 during the week. Dogs who are not kid friendly would be more of a challenge, but feel free to message and we can see how to make it work. I have a 2 year old tuxedo cat named BingBong at my home in New Castle and 1/2 custody of a very friendly 5 year old lab/Australian shepherd mix dog named Onyx. I work a full time 9-5 Monday through Friday, but happy to stop by before and after work. My schedule is pretty open on the weekends! I prefer drop in visits and walks in your pet’s home, environment with limited availability for boarding, house sitting, and doggie day care upon request.

About: Since I was born I have had dogs in my life and have always had a love of caring for pets of all types. I have administered eye drops and insulin shots for family pets when they were aging. I give each pet extra love. In the past I have done overnight stays for a boss watching their two dogs; a ridgeback and pit bull along with their chameleon. I’ve had lizards, fish, and cared for my roommates snake and shepherd mix while she was out of town or working late nights. I started my business, Alpine Animal Services in 2020, and have cared for a countless number of animals. Each one I hold dear to my heart. When I say I will care for your animal and loved one, I mean it to the depths of my core and being. I promise to protect, care for, and keep your animal safe while in my care. I have carried insurance since day one to ensure extra care and safety for your loved ones. I recently obtained a certification in Animal Search and Rescue, as animal welfare is a high priority and passion of mine. I volunteer and have a close relationship with CARE in Glenwood. In progress, I will be completing a Fear Free program with ASPCA. With more plans to continue learning about animal behavior and understanding the different kinds of animals. My husband and I have rescued 6 pets together. We rescued three cats at the age of 8 weeks from; CARE, Rory (5), and Wallace (10) from the Aspen Animal Shelter. Rory is a tabby cat, Wallace is a long-haired black cat. Our most recent cat, Purrci, is not a rescued animal, she’s great either way and deserves the same love and care as a rescue, We have three dogs; lucky (12) is from aspen animal shelter and is a shih tzu/poodle mix, Zoey (10), is from CARE and is a terrier/shih tzu/poodle mix, and our youngest, Koda (3) is from Rifle Animal Shelter/Journey Home Animal Shelter, he is a black lab/shepherd mix. We also have a 6-year-old daughter who has grown up with all of these animals. The animals get a long very well. Koda loves playing with any of the animals when they are up to it. The ultimate goal for this endeavor is to have an animal sanctuary where animals and reptiles have a place to call home. Think of, those animals/reptiles, that sit in shelters for months on end, with the possibility of being euthanized. We’ll have a place for them in our sanctuary, our hearts, and home. We’re so excited for what’s to come! **Check out my social media pages too! ** Insta: @alpineanimalservices Fb: /alpineanimalservices An ideal situation would be that the pet tolerates children, as I tend to bring my 6-year-old little girl with me from time-to-time. I am available Monday-Thursday, and Operate from 8-5pm. Services include; walks, hikes, or check-ins. I have a certification in Pet CPR via Red Cross, a certification in Animal Search and Rescue (ASAR) via Code3 and CSU, over a decade of experience volunteering at local animal shelters, animal pepper spray, and an Animal Behavior Certification.

Jessica B.
“Jessica saved me when I needed to go out of town on short notice. At the time, I had Ziggy, my beagle that was older but still had A LOT of energy. I felt bad leaving him in the house alone because of his anxiety. I did not want him to just have someone come over a few times a day, so luckily Jess was available! She was more than happy to have Ziggy as a doggie houseguest for about a week while I was out of town. She was always available for a check-in. She's very active as well, and took him and some great walks (not just out to do his business and back in). Ziggy was happy and healthy when I picked him up, thanks again Jess!!”
