“This is our second time to have Annina take care of our dog while visiting the mountains. We needed to take a day trip, but our pup couldn't join us. It was awesome to be able to rehire a familiar face for our peculiar yet sweet dog. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter in Telluride.”
About: I have owned dogs my entire life and dog/cat sit regularly. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes. As a local, I know how to care for your dog appropriately in town. Currently working part time so I have lots of time to play with your furry friends! I’m an active person who loves being outdoors and would love to take your pets with me.

About: Hello fellow dog lovers! With over 20 years of experience owning and caring for dogs, I understand the deep bond between humans and their furry companions. I’ve recently moved to Silverton and, though I cannot host pets in my rental, I’d love to take your dog for a walk or house sit where they feel most comfortable- your home! I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to provide care both during and outside of regular business hours. Whether it’s a midday walk, evening playtime or weekend adventure, I’m here to ensure your dog receives the attention, love and exercise they deserve. If you book me for pet sitting in your home, you can feel at ease knowing that I will respect your space and make it a goal of mine to leave your space as clean (or cleaner!) than how I arrived. Let’s connect and discuss how I can offer your dog the right care and attention to make you feel comfortable when you can’t be with them. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! I work from home and have a fairly flexible schedule! I can provide pet services within or outside of regular business hours- let’s discuss your pets needs and I can likely fit them in to my schedule, no problem! I love clients who offer detailed lists of their pets needs and daily routines! I used to do the same with my dog and know that following something like this gives everyone involved (dogs included!) ease of mind.
“Claire took care of our boys for 4 days while we were wheeling in Colorado. She was punctual took them on long walks and provided the best care.”
About: I’ve raised 4 of my own dogs. My last one was a Bichon and he lived to be 17. I don’t have any pets living with us full time. I stay at home most of the day. I’m a Japanese sushi chef that retired from Kazzahanna. I can arrange whatever routine you want for your dog as I won’t have conflicts. I make sure the dog has a harness or collar that fits properly and a leash that’s in good condition before I take them outside. The yard is huge but not fenced so dogs will be on a leash when outside.

About: Hi pawrents, I am a mid-30s woman, living in a clean house in Wicker Park. I grow up with a family of pets throughout my life. Now that I’m living away after 10+ yrs of experience, pet-sitting is my dream of caring for one again. My apartment is walking distance from Wicker park where they can interact, have fun with other dogs if preferred. You’ll know that they are in safe hands with me and my reviews justify that, and I’ll make sure to send pictures throughout their stay! Paw-rents! I am also a well known watercolor painter that is recently featured in greenpointers New York newsletter, and thecut NYC that could paint a cute portrait of your pet while in my care. (Enquiry me for watercolor pets commissions). :) I’m currently working fulltime permanently from home, so I’ll have my full attention for your pets! I’m currently available for house-sitting, drop-ins in the summer while you are away for vacation! Would love to bring your dog out for a day by the park, scrolling and chilling with me the whole of summer while you’re away with on the beach, or having drinks with no worries. I love to clean and keep my apartment neat after every dogsit schedule. Apartment building is pet friendly. I’ll be able to provide their bowls, a bed to rest on. If you crate train them at night, please bring their crate as well. Do let me know if they have any allergies as I can provide treats. If you would like to bring their favorite treats and toys, please do. <3 do let me know the best way to cater to your loved ones so you’ll have a peace of mind when you’re away. :) I walk them twice a day, sometimes a midday run so they get plenty of exercise. There’s a fresh bowl of water everyday and lunch & dinner kept separated so they are fresh. I have a dog bed close to my work desk so I can accompany them everyday. I am very secure in my leash and awareness of surroundings with dogs is my utmost priority. I know some dogs can get excited and dart off but I am good with that. I keep the apartment clean after each sitting, provide dried treats for their liking, have toys washed and cleaned for each pet. I have a double door security of my apartment building so there is no safety issues.
