We’re so grateful to have found her!”
About: Aloha! I’m Amber, a pet sitter based in Grand Junction, Colorado, with 14 years of pet care experience. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors, as well as a wide variety of breeds and sizes, ranging from Yorkies to Great Danes. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and individual needs, and I tailor their care accordingly. - I currently offer boarding in my home for up to two dogs from the same household at a time, allowing me to provide each guest with plenty of individual attention and care. My goal is to provide a comfortable, home-like environment where your pets can feel safe, settled, and cared for while you’re away. - In addition to dogs, I have previous experience caring for cats, birds, reptiles, and other small animals. I’m not currently offering standalone boarding services for these pets; however, additional pets from the same household may be considered when boarding your dog. - At this time, I’m only offering boarding in my home and am not available for in-home pet sitting at other locations. Feel free to message me with any questions or to discuss your pet’s individual needs! I work from home, so I’ll be available throughout your pet’s stay to help maintain their normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable and secure. My home has a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, play, and potty breaks. I also have a 20 lb male Havanese who lives in the home. - For safety and to help everyone adjust comfortably, I accept no more than two guest dogs at a time. I typically do a quick door hand-off at drop-off to help keep the transition calm and minimize distractions. Once your dog comes inside with me, they’re given time to explore the space at their own pace. We’ll then unpack their things and give them some time to settle in and get comfortable before introducing them to my dog. Introductions are done one-on-one, gradually, and under my close supervision. - Playtime is supervised, and separation from my own dog using a playpen or kennel is available as needed for individual enrichment, personal space, or throughout the stay if your dog is more comfortable on their own. Dogs are also separated during mealtimes based on their individual needs, feeding habits, and comfort levels. - If your dog normally sleeps or eats in a crate, please bring it with them when possible so I can maintain their usual routine. Depending on the size of their crate or setup, I may not always be able to accommodate their typical arrangement, so please let me know in advance. - At this time, I only offer pet sitting in my home and am not available for in-home sitting at other locations.

I live in a camper but your fur baby will not be home alone! Our campground has a fenced dog run and I would love to visit some parks if comfortable.

“We were so happy to have Clover stay with Daniel last minute. He did a great job communicating and had an organized process for letting the dogs meet and get used to each other. I can tell she's had fun. We'll definitely call him next time we're in town.”
“Amazing experience. Great person and sitter. Immediately felt comfortable leaving our dog, and our dog gave no hesitation to walk in, stay, and be left. We have a nervous dog, so new places and people can make her hesitant. She immediately took to the sitter and the house. We received pics of her activities through the day and she seemed so happy and confident. If she is uncomfortable it becomes obvious quickly, once we received a pic of her napping and comfortable we knew we made the right decision. I am so glad we took our dog here, and she came home tired and stress free. Wonderful experience. Next time we come to the area this is the person we want to watch our dog.”

“Mindy and her son took care of our senior girl for over a week. Through regular videos/pics we saw that Luna was having an amazing vacation too!! Walks, cuddles, playtime, and all the love any pup could want!! We will request Mindy for all of our boarding needs!! Thank you Mindy!!!!”
“Asylan was a lifesaver! My plans for boarding Irvin during a vacation over New Years fell through, and she immediately got back to me. She continued to stay in communication throughout his stay, which made me feel reassured as I was many miles away. She was extremely accommodating and even came to pick Irvin up. I am very pleased with this experience, and will definitely reach out to Asylan again for Irvin's care.”
“Whitney was wonderful with my furry monster. My pup is very loving but takes some time to warm up and Dustin just welcomed himself into her house with comfort and greeted her without hesitation. I could tell she has experience with communicating and handling different dog temperaments and characteristics. Whitney is very flexible and accommodating with drop off/pick up and was very prompt with communication. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a Rover in Grand Junction, CO. She will be my first go to if I ever pass through this town again. Thank you for being so great with my pup!”
“Daniel was friendly, helpful, flexible, and communicated with us promptly & sent lots of pics. Our dog had a great stay & must have felt safe, happy, and loved because he ate well. (Our pup will go off his feed when feeling out of sorts). Plenty of room for fun play inside the house and in the fenced backyard. We will definitely use Daniel for our Rover next time we are in the area.”
“Gayle was absolutely amazing! This was the very first time I was away from my fur babies for more than a day. When we went to the meet and greet my babies walked in as if they had known her forever.”
“Chonlada and her boyfriend took such good care of our puppy during our vacation. She sent us great photos of the fun they had together and our pup was so happy and healthy when we picked her up. She had a great backyard to run around in and another sweet dog to play with. I would definitely recommend Chonlada for her amazing care. Thank you!”
