Dog Walking South Boulder

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, including cats, dogs, and for the past two years I’ve lived on a farm where I have gained experience caring for many different types of animals. We also double as a kitten rescue, taking in lost and abandoned kittens from newborns through teenagers. We bottle-feed, raise, and care for them until they are healthy, grown, and ready to be adopted into loving homes. I am extremely passionate about healthy and safe animal care and ensure that in my work. I am a college student and recently moved away from home and my farm, and the first priority on my list was getting back into work with animals. Being at CU I am occupied in the mornings and late afternoon. Anywhere between 11am-1pm I am free in between classes, and anytime after 4/5pm at night. I care for pets with patience, attention, and lots of love while making sure they feel safe and comfortable in their environment. Having cared for cats, dogs, reptiles, and a variety of farm animals, I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, providing fresh water, cleaning up after pets, giving them exercise and playtime, and keeping a close eye on their behavior and well-being. Through helping my mom run our farm and caring for rescued kittens, including newborns, I’ve also learned how important it is to be gentle, responsible, and attentive to each animal’s individual needs.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13, primarily caring for cats and dogs. My experience includes dog walking, feeding, playtime, administering basic routines, and cleaning litter boxes. I’ve especially worked with older cats and dogs, so I understand the extra patience, attentiveness, and gentle care they often need. I also have two cats of my own back home, giving me firsthand experience in daily responsibilities and expectations of being a pet owner. Because of this, I’m very mindful about my care towards your pet! I’m currently a second-year, first-generation student at CU Boulder, balancing school and a Work-Study position. I’m generally available Thursday through Monday after 1 PM and can be flexible with advance notice. When I house sit I treat every home with respect, focusing on your pet while you’re away. I understand leaving your home and furry friend to a stranger can be worrisome so I do my best to comfort your pet and keep your space the way you like it.

“Great experience all around!”

About: I'm the go-to friend when pets are in need of weekend and overnight care, or simply when someone is in a pickle! I have experience with many different types of dogs and cats, young and old - walking, feeding, day-sitting and overnights. I currently have a very flexible scheduling while not working full time. When I'm not working, I love spending time outside hiking or reading in the park - perfect activities to bring a pup along! While at my own home, I have a fenced yard and am also only 100 feet from a lovely park. While at a clients home, happy to respect & follow instructions set out for the animal while in my care.

About: I have 7+ years of pet care experience. I’ve done overnights, daily check ins and walks! I’m reliable and trustworthy:) No complaints from any owners or their pets:) My schedule can also be very flexible! If days on my calendar are marked as not available, usually Wednesdays I could make something work! M/W : I can do daily check ins between my classes. I have a gap between 10am -4:40pm Tu/Thurs: same thing, mainly after 3pm Weekends: open to overnights/day to day I follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions closely, keeping them comfortable, happy, and as close to their normal schedule as possible, whatever the owner has for me at their residence is perfect!

“Donovan walked our dog 3x last week. He did a great job. He communicated with me and sent photos of our dog. It went well and we appreciated Donovan’s help!”

Current graduate student looking to destress and feel the love from your pet best friend! Safety is always my number one priority, but having fun is a close second. Where else to enjoy dogs and nature than in the beautiful Boulder Colorado? I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats (2 loving cats back home) for as long as I can remember. Being patient, I also enjoy reinforcing commands and tricks! I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! :) I go to school part-time and Mondays and Fridays I have completely off! I am also available before my classes if you want a morning appointment. Safety is always my number one priority. You can trust that your fur friend will have my total attention at all times.

About: I have been the go to pet sitter for my neighbors and friends ever since I was a little kid. I have taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits and other small animals. I have experience providing medical assistance for pets such as giving insulin shots to cats. I currently am a student at CU Boulder but am home in Centennial/Aurora on breaks and some weekends! When I am home from school, I will be available during the day to take care of your pets! I greatly care for each pet that I take care of. I will make sure your pet is doing well and is happy!

About: I’ve had and cared for pets for 14 years, including dogs, cats, and rabbits. While I haven’t worked professionally with animals, I have extensive hands-on experience with feeding, walking, grooming, and making sure pets feel loved and safe. I’m a student in Boulder, and when I’m not in class, I have lots of free time! I’m around most days of the week and would love to spend that time with pets. When I visit a client’s home, I make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I follow their usual routine like checking water, food, and giving them plenty of playtime and attention. During walks, I focus on safety and making sure they get good exercise and enrichment. I always keep owners updated with photos and notes so they know their pets are happy and well cared for.

About: Hi there! All my life I have been an animal lover and for the last 8 years I have raised my own dog, and taken care of other dogs for families I used to babysit for. I can fit in any lifestyle your pet has, whether they are active or a stay-at-home. I can fit any accommodation as I work from home, love to exercise (so your dog would get plenty of it, if need be), and I'm incredibly flexible and will be normally free to help you more than not. At the same time, I raised my dog since she was a puppy so I do have experience with younger, more energetic dogs and overall I would simply love to help and treat your dogs like family. I hope we can talk soon! I'm super flexible and work from home at the moment so I basically can take care of your dogs whenever you may need it. I will certainly be more free for your dog rather than not! I will care for your pet in your home however you see fit. I do what is asked and can fit any accommodation whether your dog has a lot of needs, or simply needs a walk and some playtime. I'm happy to help however it may be!

“We accidentally gave Chloe the wrong address, which we know was a huge inconvenience. Despite the mix-up, she was incredibly gracious, didn't give up, and made sure our dog got a great walk. We are so grateful for how she handled it, and tofu was so happy and healthy when we got home. Chloe is trustworthy, kind, and truly goes above and beyond. We highly recommend her!”

About: I grew up with my puppy who was 1 year older than me and made me the animal lover I am today. In my teens I adopted and trained two more dogs and always helped out neighbors when they needed a dog walker or pet sitter, watching all kinds of animals of all different ages! I currently work part time on weekends and paint during the week so I make my own schedule most of the time and have plenty of time to take care of animals!!! I live in an apartment with a large green space and creek and do not have any pets. I have plenty of space to run and play with dogs outside and cuddle up cozy inside!

“Mason is the best! My dog loves him and wags his tail when he sees him. Mason puts up with my varying scheduling needs and always cheerfully accommodates me. Highly recommend!”

About: My love for animals exceeds my love for humans. I have always been the biggest animals person and have owned every animal in the book, from rodents to fish to mammals. I have raised multiple puppies to adulthood, both small dogs like Maltese, and large dogs like pit bulls. I am a renowned hamster sitter who even had baby hamsters at one point, and currently have three fish tanks in my college apartment. Point is I love animals and would love to hang out and give your pet the best time ever! I have a lot of time throughout my day. The longest I am out of the house for pre day is 2 hours for classes occasionally, but other than that I am home and bored. Pet care would easily fit into my schedule to ensure your pet has the best experience with me. Caring for pets in my home would be very simple as I would just aim to make them as comfortable and safe as possible. In terms of pet care at your home, I would be the best house sitter. I will ensure your home will be left in the same condition or cleaner when you return, and will ensure that your pets feels as safe and comfortable as possible.

About: I love to care for animals! I have experience working with senior animals, animals in training, caring for wounds, and administering medications. I love to share daily photo, video and thorough updates while you’re away. I ensure prompt and clear communication. I can also care for your house plants! I am a CU Boulder Psychology student working towards a career in clinical mental health. I am at school 4-6 hours a day - this allows me to dedicate more quality time to caring for your pets compared to those with full-time schedules. I will begin back at CU Boulder late August. I am very clean on a personal level and always leave homes as good or better than when I arrive. I am well versed with different kitchen equipment especially sensitive kitchenware like easily scratched pans. I have been complimented on my knowledge of house care. I also keep an eye on your pet’s behavior: like if they’re acting off or having different bathroom habit. I’m happy to handle any clear requests you have.

“Took great care of Luna during my trip! Loved getting the detailed reports and so many pictures!”
