“Mitzi and Klif are amazing! They always treat our dogs like their own and I can always tell that they have a great time when they’re with Mitzi and Klif. This time they took care of our 7 month old puppy. He loved hanging out with them and their dogs. We are so grateful to have such great and reliable care for Bodhi!”
“Missy and Evan were great! We really appreciated the flexibility with drop off/pick up times and the daily updates. Our guy loved his time and came back healthy and happy!”
“My wife and I went overseas for our honeymoon, and we were so happy to have found Nicole and Craig!! Our dog is a bit of a diva, and can't stand other dogs or traditional boarding facilities. She almost seemed sad when we brought her home. Nicole and Craig were very responsive and attentive to our pup. We will 100% be booking with them again in the future”
“The absolute best sitters took such good care of cat Mia and even gave us such a sweet incredibly thoughtful gift at the end of her stay :) - can’t recommend Sehwa and Adam more highly! Thank you so much again! You’ll for sure be our first ask anytime we ever need a sitter again :)”
“Stephen and family were wonderful caretakers. My dog instantly felt comfortable with them. I greatly appreciated Stephen's communication, flexibility, and questions to better get to know Bodhi. Knowing my dog was in a great place where he was being cared for and loved helped me enjoy my vacation even more. Thanks for a wonderful experience! Will definitely use again!”
“Cora was so excited to see Delane when we dropped her off for her second stay. We were so happy to leave her in such good hands and will definitely be booking with Delane again.”
“Ruby was with Sean and Kim for 16 days, which is the longest we have ever left her, and I can’t say enough good things about them. We got daily updates with photos. She went for walks every day and also got to hike her favorite trail with them numerous times. She loves her new doggy buddies, and based on the photos she clearly loves Sean. She came home healthy and tired, and we were able to enjoy our extended trip knowing that she was in such great hands. 10 out of 10 recommend.”
About: I’ve taken care of large/,medium & small dogs since I was 20. Neighbors, friends and family relied on me to groom, walk, feed & bath their pets, and I can do it for you. As I’m retired with plenty of time to care for your dog, and take it on walks, if you choose.. I do have a cat so your pet needs to be cat-friendly. I’m available for boarding/drop-off after 2 p.m., on weekdays & weekends, unless other arrangements made in advance. I am retired, and have plenty of time to care for your pet(s). I have a fenced yard, a large, covered, enclosed deck for lounging in open-air, 2 friendly small dogs, and a cat. Also live in fairly large house with my grandson who is 4 yrs. old (must get along w/child, small dogs & cat).. I can walk your dog if arrangements made in advance (for additional fee.) I crate my dogs at night, and prefer you provide a crate for your dog(s), as well.

“Allie and Jason were great. They took amazing care of our pup Lady, sending so many pictures and making her feel right at home. Lady hardly wanted to leave when we picked her up!”
“This is our second time using Paul to watch our babies, and it was the same as last time. Wonderful! The dogs did great, and we go daily updates. We will definitely be using him the next time we leave town!”

“Curry was on some meds during this stay for an issue with his nose and she made sure he was staying on track ( with his meds and his ointment). Updated us when his nose was looking better too! Never have to worry if he is getting the care he needs here with Emma!! He loves coming over to see her, her huskies, and her kitties!! We will continue to use her <3”
“We left our pup with Lynn and John for our first extended time away and they did an amazing job! They sent so many photos and video updates! They treat Reina like their own dog and it made our trip so much more enjoyable knowing she was in good hands! Thank you!!”
“Sarah and her family took great care of my Standard poodle Charlie while I was traveling. I would absolutely entrust my dog to her again if I need boarding for Charlie.”

I love animals and can help for single to multiple days. I have three dogs that all get along well with other dogs. If you needed me to take care of your pets at my house I have plenty of space and activities. Behind my house is a soccer field as well as a trail up to mesa cortina. Fetch and hikes will be a definite.
“Kimberly is very attentive and responsive. She was willing to meet me beforehand on short notice. She is very thorough in her stays and makes sure to keep you up to date even when the app is lagging. She is super friendly and you can tell she really enjoys meeting new pets! I would definitely rebook with Kimberly!”

“Angela amazing. I will recommend her to anyone and will definitely book again next time we are out of town. She took care of our cats so like they were he own; communicated effectively, sent adorable photos and stories. Our house was better than we left it when we returned home and that's saying something as Angela dealt with the big windstorm that knocked out power to our rural home. She even took care of my plants. Seriously, Angela is a wonderful human being who will treat your pets and home with kindness and respect.”

“Robyn was great. She was reliable, great with communication and took my dog for a long walk which I appreciated. I received many photo updates on how my dog was doing. It was fun to see him interacting with Robyn's dogs. I would use her services again when in the area.”
“We have been traveling for a week and changing plans due to the lack of snow so we made a very last minute request and Emma was super flexible and communicative. She took great care of Minnie! Minnie can be anxious when away from home but was much calmer than usual when we picked her up. When Minnie needed space from Emma’s playful dogs, Emma gave Minnie her own space in the house. We got updates and photos during the day too. We highly recommend Emma and would use her again if we’re traveling in this area again.”
“Judson and his family are great! Their house with the big fenced land is very peaceful and beautiful . My two huskies had the best time running and playing all day. They also went on hike. Thank you for taking care of our babies. Very happy to find them.”
“Shanik and family are wonderful pet hosts. Mila loved to spend the days with them. She was happy to play ball outside in the snow for her first time. Shanik took care of Mila while my family and I were out skiing. Mila felt like she was home! Thank you!”

Prior pet store experience. I have two dogs and two freshwater fish tanks. Please feel free to call or text with questions. I look forward to working with you! I work part time and can easily fit your pet care needs into my schedule. I've been helping take care of other family's pets for many years and I make your pet my priority. I have a fenced in yard in a safe neighborhood for pet boarding. When pet sitting at another home I take great care to make sure that pets are secure and accounted for, all doors are locked and all safety precautions taken to ensure the best service for your pet and family.
“Omar was fantastic with our little Peanut. He got plenty of play time and care. Omar has a good sized fenced yard and took Peanut on a joyful walk. He was tired but happy when he got home. What more can we ask for?! Thanks again, Omar!”
About: I love big dogs, especially GSDs, but have experience with many ages, breeds, and sizes. I grew up with several labs. The last 10 years I raised a German Shepherd from 8 weeks that sadly passed away last summer. Needless to say I miss being covered in dog hair. I have experience with various personalities, separation anxiety, cuts/injuries, and administering medication. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, hikes, and going to parks, but can also just hang out with your pup if that’s what’s desired. I work remote full time and set my own schedule, allowing flexibility all hours and days. I live in a home with plenty of room and a fenced in backyard. Trails are 20 yards away. Reach out if you’d like to set up a meet and greet! I work remotely and make my own schedule, so I’m flexible at all hours and days to provide the care that your dog needs and deserves. Dogs are always welcome in my home! I have plenty of space with a fenced in yard and dogs are allowed on the couch and in the bed. I’m easy to work with, patient (some dogs just like to sniff more than they walk), communicative, and can adjust to any preferred care strategy to provide a trustworthy service while you’re away.
About: Hi, I’m Allie! I’ve been an animal lover and caregiver since I was 8 years old. I’ve loved and cared for horses, dogs, and cats throughout my life and would love to care for your furbabies like they’re my own. I share a cabin with my husband and two goofy Labradors, Jenny and Elwood. We have a half-acre, fenced in yard with plenty of room to play and roam. And the squirrel hunting is top-notch. 🐿️ 🐶 There’s plenty of dog-friendly furniture for naps, and walks and snuggles are guaranteed. 💕 We welcome friendly, non-aggressive dogs to join us for boarding and doggie daycare. A human will be home during your pup’s entire visit. If your pup prefers their own space, I’m happy to spend the day and night with them so they can keep to their familiar space and routines. 🏡🛌 If your pup loves exercise, they’re in luck - I am an avid hiker and runner who can keep up with even the most energetic of pooches. 🏃🏾♀️🥾 If you’re running errands down the hill and won’t be home for a while, I’m happy to check in on your pup and give them a little TLC and a walk. Depending on my schedule, I can accommodate last-minute requests, just give me a shout. As a dog mama myself, I know how hard it can be to be away from your furbabies. I’m happy to provide regular updates and share pics, to make you feel closer to home. 📸💕 If your pup has special needs or requirements, please let me know ahead of time and I can let you know if I’m able to accommodate. Additionally, I am an energy healer and training to be an animal communicator. If you’re down with all things “woo woo,” I’d be delighted to give your pup an energy boost and pass along a message or two. 🔮💫 I’m a writer who is training to be an animal communicator. That means this is my full-time gig! Your pups will be my top priority. I have a fenced-in yard for boarding visitors and flexibility in my schedule to spend the full day with your pup on house sitting visits.
About: I am a stay-at-home mama in the Genesee area. I have two wonderful boys aged seven and nine who love animals! We love cuddling with sweet fur babies and love getting outside for energetic ones too! My boys will occasionally be helping me with dog walking, feeding, petting, and loving on your pet(s)! We just added Minnie the puppy to our family and would love playmates who play well with others! We have a large beautiful unfenced yard and then a small dog run with a doggie door. I currently am a stay at home mom and my husband works from home so someone is usually here all the time to care for your fur children! I will make sure your fur baby is as comfortable as possible. I would love to hear all about their needs to make sure they love my home like their own!
About: My love for animals has always been a big part of my life, I don't have any pets at the moment and would love to offer time and my home to help the local community. Growing up, my family and I bred and raised pure blood Jack Russell Terriers. I've been taking care of animals since I was young. I have years of experience dog sitting for friends and family. Including senior dogs and dogs with special medical needs. I currently work from home, my work load is light and I take frequent breaks. I have plenty of time for walks through out the day. I have a fenced in backyard with some ecological points of interest, such as grass (mostly green), squirrels, singing doves, and a few representatives from the corvid family. A white cat occasionally walks along the fence line, provoking the thrill of a chase. The neighborhood is a lovely place and has plenty of sidewalks.
“Jen was great with Joshua! She sent updates throughout the day and was very accommodating with my drop off and pick up times. My dog seems very happy after his visit there. Also very convenient location for a ski day when coming from Denver area.”
About: I have experience for 40 years with animals. I have had cats, fish, giant dogs, small dogs and all those in between. I have had puppies and seniors, and I love them all. I work for myself so I can be home when I need to be. I can keep your pups routine so they are happy and comfortable. I have a fenced yard and 2 well behaved dogs to keep your fur baby company. I have a crate avlb if your pup is crate trained.
About: Dogs in our house are part of the family. We are a mother & son (age 14) combo with 2 dogs in the house (friendly, sweet spayed females). We have been loving and caring for dogs since we were both little, providing the best care for our price and will make your dog feel like it's at home! We have a fully fenced-in large yard and dog door. If you crate your dog, we have one in the house so that you don't have to bring yours. You can certainly bring your own dog bed, but we also have one that your pup can utilize. We also have stuffs, toys, leashes & bowls, so don't fret if you forget anything. Your furry-buddy is allowed to cuddle on the couch with us or wherever they find comfort. If the weather permits and your dog is accustomed to going to the dog park, they can join us on trips to play. We have both gone through dog training programs, most recently Ted Terroux. Clean house, well cared-for, loving home. ***** Please reach out if you need a date that shows as "unavailable" as we might be able to make a special accommodation for your dog & past clients. ***** As a teacher & student, we are on summer break and have lots of availability. During the school year, we work and go to school during the week. We are able to go home mid-day for potty breaks. We we home on weekends and during breaks (Spring Break, Summer, Fall Breaks & Winter Breaks). We have several "regular" clients that have a proven track record with our dogs.... Thus, we are able to board mid-week *if* your dog is COOL (plays well, non-destructive, low flight risk), and knows how to use a doggie door. So, please send us a message as we are often available for other dates not made public on the calendar. We look forward to getting to know you and your fur baby! We have a great record of caring for our dogs and we will be able to safely and reliably take care and keep your dog safe and happy in a comfortable and clean home. We typically feed our dogs in the morning and evening, but can accommodate your pups needs. Our home is very clean and well taken care of. There is a main level in which we hang out with great room, office and kitchen. The dogs have free-roam of the main level which has laminate flooring, but covered with carpet squares as one of our dogs does not like walking on hardwood floors. So, it is mostly carpeted for her comfort. We have a large sectional in which we allow dogs to snuggle with us while watching TV. The LARGE yard is mostly grass, some mulch/landscaped trees & shrubs, with concrete patio in which we spend a lot of time dining and reading. We pick up poop DAILY. During the evening, if you request your dog could be crated in the bedroom in which one of us is sleeping as dogs are pack animals and they don't like being separated from the pack. We keep them close to us. But, we want to keep everyone safe, so the crate is available (optional) for their safety as well as ours/our pets. But again, they are slumbering in the same room with us.
“Lisa and her boyfriend were incredible caregivers for Lulu!!! She seemed to get comfortable immediately (which is rare for her) and I got lots of pics and updates to ensure my comfort with this first daycare visit. I feel really lucky to have found Lisa and will absolutely book again.”
“Amelia is amazing! I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone. She sent me a video and picture updates throughout the day. Willow came home a very happy pup and we will be coming back. Thanks Amelia for your kindness!”

About: I grew up with cats and now am a very proud blue heeler-boco mix owner. I am always happier if there is an animal in the room :) I love caring for, learning about, and working with all animals. I look forward to learning about what makes your pet special and unique. As I’m a teacher off for the summer, so have a flexible schedule to be able to help out with pet care. Hanging out with some new pet friends pets is always a great day! We live in Central City, so comfortable with mountain properties. I understand my job as learning your pet’s routine in order to offer as much consistency (and love/enrichment in your absence) as possible. I am here to respect your rules, expectations, and “how it’s done” when it comes to caring for your pet in your home.
About: I've been an animal lover my entire life. Ever since I was a little girl I would bring home injured or stray animals to care for. I've raised an assortment of pets from parakeets, cats, fish, bunnies, chickens, ducks, and many dogs. Our dogs are like our children to us. It's our goal to provide the very best life we could possibly give them with lots of love, structure, exercise, a good healthy diet, and medical attention when required. Any animal that comes in our presence will experience the same treatment. I work full-time remotely. While we don't have a yard per se, we live in the mountains bumped up against BLM land with lots of hiking trails and areas to walk. Our dogs get exercised daily on the trails surrounding our home. With my at-home work schedule, I have the flexibility to take walks for my breaks and lunch hour and to get up and take care of things as needed through out the day. We get up early and go outside immediately so our dogs can relieve themselves then we go in and have breakfast. After breakfast, I start work while the dogs tend to relax on the bed behind me. I will take them out to potty again on my first break then on my lunch hour, we go for a walk through the forest behind the house. They get another potty break on my second break and then another short walk after I sign out of work for the day in the evening time. We free-feed our dogs but if we have other dogs in the house we will adjust the feeding and schedule to the visiting dog(s). We are normally in bed around 10 pm and our dogs are fully on our schedule for sleeping. If we need to step out for a bit, our dogs are good being left alone in the house but we do have a crate if needed for dogs that aren't good being left alone.

About: I have been petsitting since 2014, as of recently taking a break from my full time corporate job. I have open availability for whatever you have in mind - for the same cost of a kennel or less, your dog can stay in his environment while you are away, with plenty of company/outside time/exercise as you see fit. Happy to take long walks if needed. Your pup is also welcome to stay in my home if you’d prefer as long they are ok with other dogs/cats! Open availability, full time care. If housesitting I’m happy to spend majority of day with your pets, however will need to leave a few hours of day to take care of my own.

“Dylan was great and reliable! He always communicated well and sent pictures of our puppers on their walks. He made it so that we didn’t have to worry while we were skiing an hour and a half away.”
About: Hi there! I have been around animals my entire life and have always had lots of pets. Not only that, but I grew up spending every summer on my grandparent's farm where I learned to take care of all manners of animals and their specific needs. I am comfortable with horses, goats, chickens, dogs, cats, hamsters, ducks, raccoons, pet squirrels, you name it! I've had a lot of experience with helping others rehab wildlife too! I currently have two cats and two dogs (a husky and a border collie!) I absolutely love snuggling up with my four fur babies or going on adventures with my dogs! I have a decent amount of experience in dog training (both positive and classical reinforcement methods for puppies and adult dogs, but I am by no means a professional dog trainer.) All that is to say, I will take the best care possible of your babies and not much is past my comfort zone! I work from home most days (in Gilpin County) and can be flexible for morning, afternoon, or evening visits as needed. I am also available most weekends. I take great care to make sure my animals have a healthy and supportive environment, and I promise to do the same for yours! (i.e. designated sleeping spaces, fenced yard, clean litter boxes, fresh water always, plenty of enrichment, etc!)

About: I have been taking care of a large variety of dogs for 20 years. From eight weeks old to 16 years old, from pugs to chows and pitbulls to 140 pound malamutes I have cared for them all. I can come by to walk and feed your best friends once a day or stay and cook them meals as per your request. I want to make sure you and your loved ones are as comfortable as possible while you are away. I do freelance work so I have pretty open availability. Making sure you're needs are met so you are comfortable is my top priority. If for some reason I can't meet all of your needs I will tell you before committing to something that doesn't fit my schedule or abilities. I am here for you. How I care for your pets and home is mostly dependent on your requests. I give medicine, food and exercise as requested. I can simply fill a food bowl, measure servings and even cook protein and veggies for your dogs if that is what you want. I am happy to keep you updated or send you pictures if you'd like. Walks are as far/long/plentiful as requested. I want to provide you with the comfort of knowing someone is there to care for your loved one as you would while you are away.

I love animals and can help for single to multiple days. I have three dogs that all get along well with other dogs. If you needed me to take care of your pets at my house I have plenty of space and activities. Behind my house is a soccer field as well as a trail up to mesa cortina. Fetch and hikes will be a definite.
“Erin was absolutely fantastic with Ollie. She took him on long walks, and was patient with him, spending extra time with him waiting for him to go potty. I’ll definitely be using Erin again in the future!”
About: I’m a dog-whisperer, ha! I seem to have a calming affect and can connect with hyper-active dogs, dogs that deal with separation anxiety issues, as well as timid dogs. Pretty much dogs of all kinds! They are an extension of our lives and our families! They bring so much joy. Let me bring some joy to your family fur-babies as well! I am an online student, so I have tons of availability, even last-minute requests! I can pet-sit in your home, for daily check-ins and/or overnight care! I am available for last-minute and overnight care. I have great references to boot! I am happy to take your pup(s) on walks and/or outings. Im also available for hikes!
About: I've lived most of my life with dogs and cats in addition to sundry other animals from tortoises to tarantulas. I am particularly fond of all dogs which is why my wife and I have fostered nearly a dozen rescue and foster dogs/puppies over the last 8 years. Along with raising two high energy Australian shepherds from puppies, I have had plenty of experience handling medium to large size dogs that can be reactive or fearful under certain situations or are simply a handful. Having worked with a lot of dogs I know they all have their own unique personalities and challenges and understand the importance of flexibly adjusting care strategies. I work from home ~2 days per week and when house sitting will remain with your pet during the day. I generally do long walks in the mornings before work and after. Dog walks or short visits during the day can be arranged as long as they are done so well in advance. I have two relatively high energy dogs who need a lot of attention. Generally, I take them to an open fenced in space in the mornings to play fetch then go for a walk. We then go for a shorter walk in the evenings. We have a small fenced garden that we let them out in to do their business when they need to 2-3 times per day. As our dogs have gotten older and more mellow/better behaved we've relaxed a number of rules such going on furniture or sleeping in our room at night.
“Don always takes great care of my girl and I truly appreciate someone to walk my dog and care for her as much as I do. Xena is a sweet girl and I truly appreciate Don be as equally sweet to her and patient with her.”

“Ruby was with Sean and Kim for 16 days, which is the longest we have ever left her, and I can’t say enough good things about them. We got daily updates with photos. She went for walks every day and also got to hike her favorite trail with them numerous times. She loves her new doggy buddies, and based on the photos she clearly loves Sean. She came home healthy and tired, and we were able to enjoy our extended trip knowing that she was in such great hands. 10 out of 10 recommend.”

I would be very comfortable leaving Leia with Barbara when we come back to Bailey again.”
