“Thomas does such a great job with both my high energy pup and her older sis! You can see the love he has for what he does. The pups are excited for his arrival every morning and ready for naps by the time he brings them back. Best decision ever 😁”

About: I am a recent graduate from Colorado State University majoring in Animal Sciences and minoring in Zoology. During my time completing my undergrad I have had many opportunities taking care of dogs and cats for clients up in Northern Colorado. I am very detail oriented and attentive to my care for your fur babies. I also am known to be a great dog walker and have had some experience handling medication for cats and dogs. I am currently looking for work right now but I have a lot of time to be able to care for your animals as you are busy during the day and providing them company! I currently am living in an apartment so I can’t provide boarding services but I do have reliable transportation that’ll allow me to visit homes and check up on your animals during the day!

“Marina is pleasant and reliable, and my dogs adore her. Will definitely book her again!”

“Thank you, Sydney. I appreciate meeting you in advance, your punctuality, and your excellent communication. Henry enjoyed his walk.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was 10 and have worked with varying sizes and breeds including Blue Heelers, German Shepherds, Dobermans, Chihuahuas, Shih Tzus, Saint Bernards, and Labs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all energy levels and temperaments, from playful puppies to calm seniors. I have experience teaching young puppies basic commands like sit, lay down, and wait, and I’m patient with dogs still learning house manners. I also have hands-on senior care experience, including caring for my own dog through severe Wobbler’s disease, so I’m comfortable with mobility issues, medication schedules, and the extra gentleness elderly or special-needs dogs need. Whether it’s an energetic walk or a quiet check-in, I treat every dog like my own. I am a full time college student who is available Saturday through Monday. I am available from 11 am to 7 pm for walks and 8 am to 9 pm for drop ins! I feed my dogs on a schedule and crate them at night or if I have to leave the house. I bathe and brush my great Shepherd. I give my dogs their medication on a schedule as well and would be able to do same things for any client’s dogs!

About: I worked at a boarding business for about a year and a half for dogs and cats. I worked with all different sizes and breeds, and ages of dogs and cats. My job tittle including playing and cuddling with the animals, feeding the animals, cleaning where they stayed, and giving medicine to the animals that required it. I have a little more than basic knowledge of dogs and cats health and always try to stay up to date with that. I dog sit and cat sit for friends and families regularly aswell. I have always grown up around animals and if you were to ask anyone who knows me they will say I have always wanted to work with animals since I knew what a job was. I am currently a college student and am majoring in wildlife conservation, while that's not specifically a major for cats and animals I still have and will learn a lot about those species as well!! I currently don't have a job so my schedule is really open. I work out everyday usually in the mornings to early afternoons. But I have a very flexible schedule! I have a fenced backyard just under 2acres of land. So it is very spacious for bigger dogs to run around in! I am able to walk dogs for however long.

About: Serious inquiries only. I value my time and I value your time. Pretty please with a cherry on top 🍒🙏 If for any reason I don’t respond in a lightning-fast, high-speed-internet kind of way… please understand I’m just like the rest of you—working, hobby-ing, taking fitness classes, driving or bravely facing a sink full of suspicious-smelling dishes. That said, I will get back to you within the standard 24 hours. Guaranteed. If I don't answer within the guaranteed 24 hours, I will offer half off my regular price. My longest response time ever was a few hours—and that was either because I was at work or I fell asleep during a movie 😅 Thank you for attending my TED Talk. You may now proceed to my actual intro. 🎤✨ Hi, I’m Mary! Animals aren’t just a passion for me — they’ve been part of my life’s work. While living in France for 5 years, I volunteered with Les Pattounes du Cœur, a nonprofit that rescues and rehomes pets. I fostered everything from playful kittens to wise senior cats, including special-needs pets like my favorite three-legged kitty, who found the perfect forever home. I also rescued a sweet dog from the streets and helped him overcome anxiety caused by his past, teaching me patience, understanding, and the joy of building trust. Now back in the U.S., I’m here to offer loving, reliable care for pets in my community. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I’ll make sure your furry family member feels safe, happy, and truly cared for — as if they were my own. ❤️ When I’m not behind the wheel of giant 2-story “Tonka” trucks, you can usually find me spending time with furry friends. My job gives me plenty of time off, and I can’t think of a better way to fill that time than caring for animals. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddle sessions, providing pet services lets me combine my love for animals with my free time - and give pet parents peace of mind while they're away. I share my home with my sweet cat, Maple, who my wife adopted from a no-kill shelter. She’s spoiled with love, and I care for her the same way I would care for your pet — with attention, patience, and consistency. Every day, I make sure Maple has fresh water, a clean litter box, plenty of food, and lots of playtime and cuddles. I believe pets deserve a safe, comfortable, and loving environment, and I’ll treat your furry family member with the same care and respect I give my own. I truly adore animals (if I could, I’d have a house full of cats!), and I take their well-being seriously — because they’re more than pets, they’re family. 🐾

About: I have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs, my own pup, Ludo, lived to be over 20 years old, and supporting him through every life stage taught me patience, gentleness, and how to meet the unique needs of aging pets. I’m genuinely passionate about animals and have spent years volunteering at animal shelters, which has given me experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and backgrounds. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets for years, and I treat every animal like a member of the family. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness truly matter to me, and I’m committed to giving them the same love and attention I’d want for my own. I am currently transitioning between full time work and going back to school online. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for your pets. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I can work around your needs and ensure your fur babies get consistent attention and care throughout the week. I’d love to fill some of my time making sure your pets feel happy, safe, and loved. In my home, pets have access to a safe, fenced yard where they can play and explore. I live with two friendly dogs and two shy but affectionate cats, who enjoy snuggling and playing with new furry friends once they feel comfortable. We have plenty of toys to keep pets entertained, and I make sure everyone feels safe, loved, and included. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their routine and comfort, giving them attention, playtime, and affection while respecting their space and environment. My goal is always to help pets feel secure and happy, whether they’re at home or visiting mine.

“Averi was great with our dog the past few weeks while our regular walker was away! She’s a busy lady, and she was great with communicating schedule changes. Will definitely contact her again in the future! ☺️”

I have owned dogs, cats, a rabbit, a ferret, a ball python and rodents. I have owned large dogs like a Rottweiler and Small ones like a chihuahua.

“We have been working with Sofia for two weeks now and she’s been very easy to work with, she shows up on time and goes straight to working with my dog, she sends me great pictures and updates me on progress and daily activity on our dog behavior and her personal breaks, I would recommend Sofia to anyone looking for a nice and caring person to walk your dog, glad to have found her and really appreciate her time she spends working with our dog!”

About: I grew up with dogs and had cats as pets as an adult. I love both dogs and cats (and all animals) but have the most experience with these two. I can do dog walks, grooming for both dogs and cats, drop ins for feeding, bathroom and any other needs, overnight stays and longer term stays if needed! Please note: I'm happy to travel for meet & greets and bookings, but for locations more than 15 miles from me will include a travel fee due to distance and fuel costs. Please message prior to booking if you are outside this range. Thanks for understanding - it helps me keep providing reliable care for clients. Same-day requests may also incur an additional fee depending on availability. *Lastly* if you see any dates on my calendar that looked blocked off (especially if they're highlighted in yellow) you can still reach out to see if you're close enough for me to do drop in visits! Dates highlighted in yellow just mean I have another booking but I'm still able to fit in drop in visits! 😊 I work remotely so I'm more flexible, esp if I'm doing any daytime or overnight stays. I work 7 am-4 pm M-F and can easily step away from my job as needed. I'm gentle, safe, reliable, intuitive and quick to pick up on how animals are feeling. I also take into consideration any special needs animals may have.
