House Sitting in Sunshine

About: I've had family dogs for 13 years, but started taking care of some of my neighbors' dogs 5 years ago, whether it be taking them for potty breaks or staying over at their house to give them attentive care. I work part time at a pet boarding place as a kennel tech, so I have lots of experience with many different breeds and temperaments of both cats and dogs. I've worked with dogs of all sizes, from Yorkie to Saint Bernard, and have lots of experience caring for both puppies and senior pets that might need more rigorous attention. I will be working part-time this summer, meaning that on the occasional days I work, I am available any time before 8am and then after 1-2pm. I can still stay over with your pet any day, that just means that on workdays, I would feed and walk them (And any other things necessary) before 8am, and then have to leave for work and then come back at 1-2. Whenever I am not actively at work, I can spend all my time caring for your pets! I am experienced at reading pet body language and adapting to how they respond. I am very communicative and will send lots of updates about your pet, including daily pictures of your fur babies! I can supply treats (with your approval) and can take them to parks and other places for walks, as I have a car and license. I'm dedicated to making sure your animal is as happy as can be :-)

“Charlie house sat for us for a week. He took amazing care of our cat and dog. Charlie was very professional and an excellent communicator. When we got home, the pets were happy and the house was immaculate. I highly recommend Charlie for pet sitting. We'll be using his services again!”

“Addie came to our house to dog-sit our 7-month-old puppy while my wife and I took a day trip for some Christmas shopping in Denver. She is very kind, patient, and clearly has a heart for dogs. Our puppy immediately connected with her. Addie is a great choice for dog-sitting. We will use her again.”

“Sarah was wonderful! Our dog has anxiety and takes time to warm up to strangers, but he wanted pets from her within minutes of them meeting. She was very understanding and patient with him, given the anxiety. Knowing Sarah was with him gave us peace of mind so we could enjoy our time away. Thank you so much Sarah for taking such great care of our boy!!”

“Kate was excellent! We booked her for an overnight stay for our (in our house) - to keep him company since he has a little separation anxiety. She was very responsive in our communication and with the our pups needs. Our boy is sometimes shy with new people but he took to her right away and he even hung next to her while we did our initial meet up. She catered to him (walks, waters, and lots of cuddles) while she stayed and she left the house as she found it and was very respectful! Highly recommended!”

“Lesly was great to book in a pinch! Our little zoo seemed well taken care for when we came back. She also left the sweetest note for us to see when we returned!”

“Great and flexible dog sitter. Was able to adjust days and times as life happened and made us adjust our travel plans. Our dogs are not the easiest but they warmed to her quickly and it made for a great match.”

“Ana went above and beyond with our dog, Ziggy, and cat, Robin. We could not have found a better petsitter to stay at our home while we were away. Prior to leaving, Ziggy was experiencing stomach issues and we also had a last minute flight cancellation. Ana was very communicative, reliable and flexible throughout the process. She made sure to understand Ziggy's medications and food limitations as well as Robin's daily routine. She reassured us by providing tons of videos, photos and updates while we were away, and we can tell she gave them plenty of love and care. Highly recommend her services and would absolutely book again!”
