Cat Sitting in Snowmass

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and am a devoted dog mom to Pepper. I also have a young child at Basalt Elementary School. Our previous dog was a pug & beagle mix named Hercules who lived to 18. I love animals and would love to check in on your pets or walk your doggies 🖤 I’m currently a stay at home mom and my daughter is in daycare four days per week. I’m available to drop in (check on, feed, & play) with your pets or walk your doggies every day except for Wednesdays. I’m available in downtown Basalt, Willits, and the surrounding area We have a 3 year old rescue named Pepper who we’ve had since July 2025. She spends her days with me at home, running errands, etc. or with my husband at his office. She loves kids, other dogs, and doing zoomies at Arbaney Park. I would be happy to play with your dog in your backyard or take them on walks. Also happy to drop in for feedings or to check in on your fur babies

“Marissa was great with our cat! It made such a difference not having to worry about how he was doing while we were gone, we could relax and enjoy ourselves! Every photo she sent we could tell he was happy, and he loved her right away when they met. Thanks Marissa!”

Whether your dog loves leisurely walks or energetic hikes, I’m happy to accommodate their activity level. I also specialize in caring for senior pets, ensuring they receive the gentle attention and support they deserve. As a trusted member of the community for over 20 years, I’m committed to providing a safe, loving, and reliable experience for both pets and their owners. I’m currently working part time and have flexibility in my schedule for walks and home visits as well as over night stays. I’m available week days and weekends. In the comfort and familiarity of your own home, your pet and I will enjoy leisurely conversations, ear scratches, and plenty of play or cuddle time.

About: Growing up with two dogs and a cat, I have life-long experience caring for pets. I am great with detail when it comes to pet care and I love keeping pets happy and active while their parents are away! I work Fridays-Mondays, although this varies and I am sometimes also available on weekends. I am usually available all day Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays for dog sitting, walking, and boarding. My house has a fenced in yard in the front. I also live right next to a lovely greenway to take the dogs out for longer walks. I also have a bed and bowls for food and water.

“Danielle was amazing! Coco is tough right off the bat because she needs to get to know you, but Danielle made it work and was very flexible with getting her the key fob and dropping back off. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve given love to animals for as long as I can remember. From dog sitting overnight, to helping raise my sister’s kitten, to taking care of stray dogs in Sri Lanka, to loving on kittens in Vietnam, to volunteering at a horse rescue, I am passionate about animals everywhere I go :) I work full time in Aspen but if you are local I can take breaks during the day to take them out on walks or hangout for a bit! I can help train if needed, or help with walks, feeding, along with plenty of playtime! I’m very active so open to hikes and running as well!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my enthusiasm and love to create connections with all animals as if they were my own with the best pet care provided. Open to all animals but most experience with dogs that need exercise in the mornings and afternoons. We can make it work! I work some nights doing pizza delivery and some mornings snow plowing during the week. All in all, most days are available! I have a big enough car to pick up a lot of animals for walks. I am very reliable in getting to and from a clients home on time and ready to work.

“I was overwhelmed with a new 6 month old puppy and was exhausted! My Vet suggested I try Rover to find a pet sitter. I was exhausted. So I connected with Megan and asked for "HELP" Within 10 minutes she relied "I can help." So we did a meet & greet with my dog Cedella at my cabin. The next afternoon I was off to a music gig for 7 hours...and kenneled my dog. Megan arrived at @ my cabin, as discussed, and handeled my puppy very professionally. I had no worries and enjoyed my performance that night. Thank you Megan, I look forward to having you take care of Cedella again soon. GG 🐾”

“Chloe was great! She took good care of our 2 cats while we were away and helped water our plants as well. She seent lots of pictures and and put our mind at ease knowing our cats were in good hands.”

“Meagan took extra care and attention with our shy cat, Xia, while we traveled internationally for two weeks. It was a huge relief to know someone we trust is caring for our furry child. She communicated regularly, shared photos and video, and noted any unusual behavior Xia had. She looked after our home by vacuuming cat litter, removing trash, and letting us know about our carbon dioxide alarms’s beeping. She went out of her way to make sure Xia felt safe and built a relationship with her. We are so thankful to her. She is our #1 go-to cat sitter!”

“Timely, attentive, communicative, and handled my 5 large breed dogs professionally! Highly recommend.”

About: I grew up with dogs and cats (and birds, rabbits, fish and farm animals). I started dog sitting 20+ years ago. It wasn't something I advertised, instead people asked me because I was a responsible and independent young adult. As I got older and my career took off, pet sitting was something I would do to supplement my income/ and be connected to animals without having the full responsibility that comes with owning a dog. I have experience with breeds and personalities of every kind and understand above all else it's what's most important to any dog is that they feel safe and that they can trust the person they're with. I recently closed my brick & mortar business of 15 years and am new to the area, Therefore I have all the availability and focus for your loved ones. If you travel often, I can be a consistent sitter for your pets as opposed to having to find someone new or juggle a few sitters based on their availability. Any time I am in someone's home I care for their pets as they would themselves. Whether it be following a feeding schedule or sitting on the couch together.

About: I am currently living in Carbondale, CO living for the outdoor adventures! I love getting to bring Leo on outdoor adventures with me and would treat your fur baby like my own with lots of love and fun adventures. I decided to get into dog sitting because I’m looking for some side work and what better way to spend my time then with more sweet furry friends! In my personal experience, I have had a wide range of different kinds of pets, such as chickens, lizards, hamsters, cats, and dogs. In my professional life with animal handling, I had the most incredible experience in the past in Colorado to be a part-time dog handler for sled dogs. I have also done a good amount of dog sitting for friends in the past. I can't wait to help out and make some new furry friends and maybe go on an outdoor adventure too! I do work full time but have flexibility in my daily schedule and have weekends open. Just as I treat my dog, I always prioritize a good healthy route and would do the same for your pet. I have a regular route with my dog and would treat and care for anyone else’s pets the same! I understand the importance of a safe and loving experience for your pets as I look for the same for my dog when I’m away. I have a lot of country land I live at with a grassy backyard.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals of all kinds since I was a kid. Professionally, I started working at doggy daycares when I was in high school and went on to pet sitting, walking, as well as animal husbandry and working with horses. I work in childcare and have a playful caring nature. I am currently available any time. I have recently moved to the area and schedule is wide open. Let’s chat and we can work something out that meets your scheduling needs. I would care for your pets as I would my own. I am incredibly respectful of other people’s space and abide by their rules. I am trustworthy and have many references.

About: I love animals and have had pets all my life. My first job at 14 years old was at Ross Hospital for Animals in Bloomfield Hills, MI. I also have volunteer experience at Leader Dogs for the Blind, where I was responsible for walking the adult dogs and caring/bathing the puppies. I am a full-time hospitality associate at Restoration Hardware. As I am a fully remote employee, I have the availability to house and/or pet sit anytime during the week and weekends. I am originally from Bloomfield Hills, MI and obtained my degree from Oakland University in Elementary Education. I have extensive history in pet sitting, house sitting, and caring for children as an English Governess. I am also an animal lover and will take care of your home and/or pets with love, care, and respect.

“Cal is ABSOLUTELY wonderful !!! He was so professional and my dogs loved him. He sent pictures at check ins, which is always a sense of relief, knowing our babies are safe and happy! Highly recommend and will be having him again for our next pet sitting need!”

About: I've cared for dogs and cats for around 15 years of my life, I have also had 2 dogs and two cats since I was around 5 years old, one before that as well. I have helped out friends and relatives by caring for, feeding, cuddling, giving medication, and letting their dogs out to potty or cleaning their cats litter boxes. I am a huge animal lover and will open all pets with open arms and the best care. I’m a ski instructor in the valley, so my schedule can vary a bit depending on weather and bookings. I generally work around 9–3, which means I’m usually available for afternoon and evening walks or drop-in visits. On some days I’m also available in the mornings if I’m not scheduled to work. Please feel free to reach out even if your needs fall outside these times. I’m always happy to see if I can make it work! I think it is important to learn how you keep your pets safe, every family is different. For example, if you like your dog let out only on leash, if you have a fenced in backyard they like to run in, if they sleep in a crate at night. Your dog and or cats safety is my top priority and I will do everything to keep them happy, protected and having fun.

About: I am an active, responsible dog lovin’ gal. I have experience with over night care with multiple dogs as well as day time walks, feeding, and going on safe on and off leash pup-friendly adventures. I foster dogs throughout the year and have experience with all ages. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I can adjust my schedule as needed based on the hours or care you need for your dog. I am a responsible care provider and have house sat and dog sat for the last 10+ years. I am happy to adjust to your needs in our home or yours!

“Karissa was so wonderful with our pups!! We have two big dogs and they are super hairy and shed like crazy. She brushed them and took great photos to let us know the pups were happy and safe! Very professional and easy to communicate with. Will definitely book with her again! Thank you”

About: My dog Yuki and I have lived internationally in 3 different countries. We have now called the RFV our home since 2020. I work in Aspen and bring my little floof in to work with me, it is a very dog friendly workplace. While living in Dubai I began watching friends and colleagues dogs while they were away; everything from a little 6 pound shitzu puppy to an 86 pound special needs lab. I hated boarding kennels for my own dog and wanted him to be in an environment as close to home as possible to ease the stress of being away from family. All dogs I meet get the same love and attention I give my boy Yuki, which is quite a bit! I am a certified teacher and Yuki is a service dog who assists in classrooms and in child development. I developed an educational framework for assistance dogs in the school I was a founding member of. In Dubai he helped to build responsibility and empathy in my classroom as well as helped to develop confidence in reading skills to children within the school. If you ever need advice on taking your beloved pet abroad, please ask and I am more than happy to give advice on the processes. I work at the Red Brick in Aspen and can pop out to go for walks with your pup during my work day, Yuki my pup comes into the office and hangs out with other office doggos during the day and we are happy to host additional pups. I am in Aspen 9-5 weekdays. I live in Woody Creek just off the Rio Grand trail, perfect place for long hikes. I am very careful with my own dog, nothing that could potentially hurt them is allowed in the house (no grapes, etc.) Fenced in yard so no escaping through an open door. And, all pups are allowed on the bed (I also have doggie stairs up to keep any little pups hips happy).
