1. Annina H.

“Anni was a gem with our pup! She took her on long walks, spoon fed her when she was being picky, and overall took great care of her. Our pup definitely enjoyed hanging with her for a couple long days, and was clearly excited to see her when she arrived. We had her a few days and nights and would book her again when back in town.”


2. Haruko K.

“Haruko was amazing! She was very kind and caring to our new puppy, and went above and beyond to send photos and updates throughout the day. If you're looking for a someone to watch your pet, Haruko is the best!”


3. Rose K.

“I highly recommend Rory (aka Rose) to take care of your dog(s). She had great communication before and during our time away. She asked great questions to be sure she had and knew everything she needed to best care for our dogs. I really appreciated her confidence in her abilities to take on my two 65lb lab mixes, one of whom is reactive to other dogs. She took the precautions on their walks that we discussed, keeping my pups - and neighborhood pups - safe by doing so. Apparently one of my pups was so comfortable with her that he climbed in bed with her! We will definitely be reaching out next time we need someone to stay with our dogs. Thanks Rory!”


4. Kelsey J.

“Kelsey did an amazing job taking care of our 2 goldens while we were away on vacation. She sent lots of pics and daily updates of their hikes and play dates in the river -- which were great at reassuring me our pups were in good hands. I'm pretty sure our dogs miss her. Kelsey is hard act to follow!”


5. Samuel N.
“Sam is great with dogs! My dog can be a bit anxious around other people but Sam is very patient and has done an amazing job taking care of her and walking her”


6. Ruthie B.

“Ruthie was great with our pup! She took our pup on a few walks and hung out with her while we were skiing for the day. Would recommend booking with Ruthie. She took great care of our fur baby.”


7. Spencer K.

“I'm excited to share the wonderful experience we had with Spencer, our trusted pet sitter in Telluride. Recently, Spencer took care of our beloved furball, Rocky, during our stay at our second home Telluride. The care provided by Spencer, a true animal lover, was outstanding. From the get-go, Spencer's genuine love for animals, especially our furry friends, was apparent. Needing someone to drop by our second home for a house visit, Spencer's attention to detail and personalized care immediately put us at ease. What truly set this experience apart was Spencer's commitment to ensuring Rocky, our energetic pup, not only received necessary care but also enjoyed their time together. Rocky was in excellent hands with Spencer, who made sure to keep our furry friend thoroughly exercised and content. The regular updates and delightful pictures we received during the visit not only kept us informed but also showcased the wonderful bond between Spencer and Rocky. Spencer went above and beyond in securing our home and diligently following any specific instructions we provided. It was clear that Spencer, being more than just a pet sitter, treated our home and Rocky with the utmost care and consideration. For anyone in need of a reliable and caring male pet sitter in Telluride, I wholeheartedly recommend Spencer. The peace of mind he provided during our time away was invaluable, and it's evident that he treats his furry charges like family. A massive thank you to Spencer for making our Telluride stay worry-free and ensuring Rocky felt the love and attention he deserves!”


8. Laura D.

“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.”


9. Parker S.

“A great dog walker/ sitter. My dog was happy and worn out when we got her back.”


10. Claire G.

“Claire watched our pups for a day while we visited ouray. We were able to go for a long hike, enjoy orvis hot springs and have a meal without worrying about our senior girl and our 8 month old puppy. She was sweet with them and I would absolutely book her again if we are in town.”


11. Sam B.
About: I’ve always had at least one dog in the family all of which I trained. Have fostered several puppies for the human society and will house sit/dog sit for a telluride family several times a year. During offseason (the month of April) I do not work and am externally flexible. Am available to take care of dogs at my home (if they are well trained) or at your home. I live next to the park and am able to take long walks multiple times a day. My home has a small, well behaved dog living there currently who gets along with others. I prefer taking care of dogs in their own home because they usually are more relaxed and comfortable there.


12. Samantha L.
“Sammy has cared for many dogs (and lizards, etc) in her life and I know she will care for yours like her own! I watched her take care of her own sweet pup with love and dedication even as she required increasing care in her old age. Sammy will handle caring for your pet with the same practical, playful compassion!”


13. Lindsay C.

“I booked Lindsay to be available to us if needed while in Telluride. While we didn't end up needing her to watch our doggie, her communication was great! It was a big deal knowing we had the ability to have someone watch him if we needed it. Thanks again Lindsay!”


14. Rubie D.
“Rubie is great with dogs and cats! She has cared for both of mine and was exceedingly attentive, loving and FUN. She is a very trustworthy choice for a pet caregiver!”


15. Amanda W.

“Amanda was awesome. Fast responses and sent pictures to keep me updated. The cats took to her immediately. I would absolutely book again. Took good care of my house as well.”


16. Britta B.


“Britta is amazing! Britta checked in for potty breaks with our pup while we were away for the day and also stayed with her for an extended period of time at our house when we were out of town. She is very professional and punctual. Our dog can be a little wary of new people but Britta was patient and very sweet with her. I highly recommend using Britta for all your dog needs.”


17. Alistair H.
“I have been friends with Alister and watched him care for his senior dog with nothing but grace and love. He has also watched my puppy multiple times and takes the absolute best care of her. Alister will love your dog like his own and I couldn't recommend him more!”


18. Alaina S.
“Alaina is my go to pet caregiver. I have a three legged disabled dog who needs lots of extra care and attention. Alaina has always shown up with smile and ready to help. I appreciate her love and care for my girl, wouldn’t recommend anyone else!”


19. Caleb I.

“Caleb was wonderful!! We were in Ouray for a couple of days and wanted to do some activities we couldn’t bring our dogs along with so Caleb took great care of them for the day. My dogs are my kids and I wouldn’t just leave them with anyone!! Highly recommend!! :)”


20. Faith C.
“It is a pleasure recommending Faith for any position involving care of those creatures who require personal attention. We have left Faith in charge of our home, 2 dogs, and 1 cat on numerous occasions over the past ten years in order to travel. Faith has shown consistent responsibility, good judgement, and just seems to have a way with animals. Faith is reliable and communicates very well. She is fearless when it comes to the care of pets, even when there are nasty diarrheal messes to clean up, and medications to administer. Please feel free to contact with further questions. Best Regards, Perry and Marlene Bartram”
