“Joan is amazing with our two dogs! She is so responsive any time I message her and takes such fantastic care of our girls! We will always use Joan when we need boarding for our dogs!”
About: I absolutely love dogs, I have grown up with dogs and have George now who I do everything with. He’s been to just about every state in the country. Recently moved back to Utah and looking to get some extra work. My schedule is flexible at the moment so can work around whatever is needed! I will make sure to be very attentive whether it’s at my place or yours. Happy to also go on walks, long or short, whatever the dog likes!
“Sue was absolutely wonderful with my 10-year old GSD. She was very flexible on arrival and pickup times, and never left her by herself alone. I’ll definitely be reaching back out.”
“Bridget is incredible! She took excellent care of my high energy dog and send lots of updates. Bridget was very accommodating and flexible with my flight delays. Highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities — from energetic adventure pups to seniors who need a slower pace and extra patience. I’m especially attentive to routine, behavior cues, and emotional well-being. I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe and comfortable, whether that’s sticking closely to their schedule, providing calm companionship, or getting them outside for structured exercise. I have experience with: Puppies (potty routines, basic manners, consistency) Senior dogs (gentle walks, medication reminders, extra monitoring) High-energy dogs who need both physical activity and mental stimulation Anxious or shy pets, using calm handling and positive reinforcement I’m reliable, communicative, and proactive — you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest check-ins so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I treat every animal as if they were my own, with patience, respect, and genuine care. What truly sets me apart is that I don’t rush care. Your pet gets real attention, not just a check-in — and your peace of mind is just as important to me as their happiness structure my days around the pets I’m caring for, making sure they get consistent attention, walks, meals, playtime, and companionship — not rushed drop-ins. I have the flexibility to: Provide morning, midday, and evening care Take dogs out for regular walks and outdoor time Be present for longer stays and extended companionship Adjust schedules to match your pet’s normal routine I’m mindful of maintaining consistency, especially for pets who thrive on structure or need extra reassurance while their humans are away. Whether it’s a quick check-in, a long walk, or overnight care, your pet is worked into my day as a priority — not an afterthought. I communicate clearly about availability and will always let you know ahead of time if anything changes. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable and routines stay consistent. I follow your instructions closely and treat your space with the same respect I would my own. In your home, I: Maintain your pet’s normal feeding, walking, and medication schedule Provide companionship, playtime, and calm presence (not just quick check-ins) Keep your pet’s environment clean, safe, and low-stress Watch for behavior or health changes and communicate proactively Send regular updates and photos so you feel connected while you’re away I’m attentive to details — from securing doors and gates to respecting house rules and routines. For overnight stays, I ensure pets have consistency, comfort, and reassurance throughout the day and night. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, relaxed, and cared for — and for you to have total peace of mind knowing both your pet and your home are in trustworthy hands.
“Jenna took such good care of my dog, taking him on a great hike for the day I needed her to watch him (even with a short notice of needing her sitting help) Very happy and would recommend!”
“Winsome took great care of our puppy while we were out of town for a frew days. She communicated clearly and shared plenty of updates and pictures. We would definitely book with her again knowing our pup would be well cared for!”
“Absolutely amazing! Cori was so welcoming and kind to my dogs. It was my first time using Rover and Cori was beyond helpful. I dropped my dogs off with her to undergo a surgery in Denver and Cori was absolutely fantastic with communication and posted updates on how much fun the dogs were having. It was really a huge stress taken off my shoulder. Her place seemed perfect for active dogs like mine with a good trail very close by.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I felt anxious about it. When I picked up my black lab Benny at the end of a three day trip, he looked happy and was affectionate towards Ben. I got pictures all weekend from Ben and his girlfriend Mel, I’ve been running on trails and getting lots of time outside. They were both extremely kind, Thoughtful, and professional. I felt at ease and I will for sure use Ben again.”
“Joelle was absolutely amazing with my reactive 8-year old! It’s always a little scary leaving your baby with someone new but Joelle had me at ease from the very first meet and greet. She was great about keeping me updated and sent me lots of photos from her walks. She was also super flexible and accommodating when I had to change pickup plans on the fly. I would have her watch Luna again in a heartbeat.”
“Kyle was amazing with Scout. From our meet and greet with him and Toffee through the entire stay, he was communicative, caring, and helpful. You can tell he loves dogs and I knew Scout was well taken care of. Highly recommend.”
About: Hi! I’m Stuss — a firefighter/paramedic and lifelong dog person based near Keystone/Dillon. Outside of work I volunteer at the Frisco Animal Shelter and with Summit Lost Pet Rescue, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of dogs: puppies, seniors, shy dogs, reactive dogs etc. I’ve also owned two dogs through their whole lives, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your best friend with someone else. My setup is simple: I only take one dog at a time (or two from the same household). That means your dog gets my full attention, a calm environment, and care that’s tailored to their routine — not a busy “pack” situation. I donate 20% of my earnings on Rover to the local animal shelter/rescue work I support. My work schedule is 48 hour shifts, and then I have a block of 4 days off. Some of those days I go on adventures, and some of those days I chill around the house. Those "rest days" are when I open my calendar up for dog sitting, so, your dog(s) will have my company all day while I'm at home doing chores, relaxing, and getting outside. I love to hike year round and I will take your dog with me, if they're up for it. I always match the day to your dog. Energetic dogs can join for longer walks/hikes, and seniors can take it slow with short strolls and extra couch time. I live in a ground-floor condo at the end of a quiet street with trails and open space nearby. With your permission, I also drive a few minutes to local trailheads for variety, and I kind of specialize in knowing quiet places to hike without the crowds. I live alone in a quiet, uncluttered home — great for dogs who do best in a calm space. Dogs are welcome on the couch and bed (unless you prefer otherwise). I stick closely to your dog’s normal routine: meals, meds, potty schedule, exercise, and any special instructions.
“Amanda was great! She responded quickly and was able to accommodate on short notice. She sent pictures and took Maggie on one of her favorite walks! I had a tired pup when I picked her up, which is always a guarantee that she had a good time. I will definitely be using Amanda again!”

Prices are estimates per visit for 1 cat. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: My love for cats came when I first got my family cat in high school I formed a deep bond with. I understand the soul level connection that can form between cat and human so I don’t take their care lightly. I’ve taken care of cats for my friends and family as well as being the local stray caretaker in my community. I will make sure your cat is respected, well fed, stimulated, and always has a clean litter box. The unique personality of your cat will be accommodated with me :)
“Steven was prompt, sent multiple pictures and info and the dogs obviously had a good time! Ive used Rover multiple times and feel very happy and safe with the people on it.”
About: I have had dogs growing up my whole life and currently have two toy poodles. They would be loved and cared for as my own! We are currently work from home so they have plenty of attention throughout the day. We have a fenced in backyard for some running space. If they are familiar with a doggy door we have one going in and out of the backyard. They will be treated as if they are our own. We love our dogs very much and treat them as our family members. They get love, care, and cuddles throughout the day. I currently have a fairly flexible schedule and will try to accommodate your needs. I’m happy to chat about a schedule that works for both of us! I’ll treat your pet like my own. I take my dogs on near daily walks. I love walking around neighborhoods or playing fetch. I’ll accommodate to the needs of your pet.
“Elizabeth was amazing. Great communication, responsive, playful with my pooches. Her visit allowed me to relax and enjoy myself knowing my buddies were well cared for. A thousand thank you’d.”
“Jodie was a phenomenal cat and house sitter for our 3 week vacation. She would give us regular updates and was always quick to reply. The cats and house were in great shape when we returned. So thankful for her time and attention to our furry kiddos.”
About: The happiness and safety of a furbaby is always my top priority. I have fostered, owned, and cared for many unique dogs and cats. I have a great work ethic, I will follow your exact requests, and leave the home or job better than before! It is currently summer, I have one online summer class- so I am home majority of the time! I occasionally work at a local preschool from 3-5, and then am back home with the fur babies! I have minimal restrictions, if any, to what i’m able to do for you. I can feed as many times a day as needed, I can crate and I can help train. I will keep them off furniture if that’s what you prefer, and can help with special feeding instructions. Anything you need, that isn’t too un reasonable, of course.
About: I have always loved dogs! I have an 11 year old family labradoodle back in Minnesota and I also helped take care of my roommate's border collie while I was in college. Additionally, in high school, I volunteered at the Animal Humane Society as a dog walker and I also worked at the Petsmart PetsHotel, where I spent my entire days entertaining dogs. During my time in Colorado, I've been working with dogs at Rocky Mountain Puppy Rescue and Dumb Friends League as well as dog sitting/walking regularly. I graduated from the University of Denver in 2019 and I'm currently living in Breckenridge as a ski instructor and working at a sushi restaurant. I can't have my own dog in my house (landlord rules), so I would love to hang out with your dog! During the summer I just work at a restaurant in the evening. I work Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday from 4:30-9ish. Other then that I’ll be around all day! I will make sure your fur baby's safety is my top priority. This means always using a leash unless your yard is fenced in or the dog has great recall. It's important to me to know if your dog is on medication and when/how to administer it as well as knowing what food and treats are okay for your pet to have.
About: I've had dogs all of my life, and currently my family has three. I have watched family friends dogs while they have been on vacation. I had a cat growing up and have some experience with them as well. I will begin full time work on the 13th of June, then my schedule will change week to week depending on my hours! Thursday-Sunday works best! I walk my dog daily, feed her, play with her, and interact with her throughout my day. I also bathe her when needed and have participated in doing these tasks for my dogs growing up.
About: *Convenient location* I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and reptiles since I was 11 years old. The majority has been spent with dogs and cats but I love all types of animals. Some of my favorite breeds I’ve looked after are doodles, boxers, and labs! I have a very flexible work from home job as an Executive Assistant where I have plenty of time to play, go for walks, and spend time outside in the yard or at nearby parks and hiking trails. I like to keep animals close to me inside the home so they are monitored. When we are outside, I always like to use a leash and avoid contact with other animals unless you recommend taking your dog to the dog park for social interaction. Part of my yard is fenced in where dogs can play and enjoy time outside off leash. I also have no roommates or pets so my home is a very relaxed and safe environment.
“Eric was beyond a 5 star! I have two Maine Coons who are essentially “ dog-like” personalities, in other words are needy ( in a good way)! Both boys were well taken care of with their physical needs but emotionally too! We got pictures every visit! Such a wonderful gift to us! There is nothing but praise for Eric! Thank you again from all of us! ❤️❤️”
About: I've had animals my entire life and can't imagine it any other way. I have a cat and a paralyzed black lab. Just last year I lost my 13.5 year old lab so I have extensive experience with elderly pups. I am very active and if walking or hiking is what your pup loves to do, that is what we will do! If they prefer couch time with belly rubs, I'm happy to oblige! I'm currently in between full time jobs. I am looking for some part time work! My schedule is flexible throughout the week in the morning/daytime/evening. Your pet will be cared for in the way you would prefer. If they need to be blocked off from certain rooms or crated while alone, walked a certain way, harness/no harness etc. those asks will be honored.
About: I am an attentive dog lover who always had dogs in the house growing up. When I was 15 I begged for my fur baby and we had all the adventures during the 14 happy years my buddy was with me. Being a dog mom that amount of time has allowed me the experience of training, walking and caretaking. I'm not afraid to handle an uncertain dog. When under my care, I am attentive to their needs and understand their body language. Please allow me to care for your fur baby in the same way that you would. I work part time in different parts of the county and have lots of free time to enjoy the outdoors and hang with your pups. When caring for pets I am able to follow detailed instructions as well as use common sense in situations where good judgment may be requires.

“We booked this sitter last minute for a short, few-hour stay while we were in Breckenridge, and he was very quick to respond and easy to coordinate with. He also took our dog for a walk during the stay, which we really appreciated. Everything went smoothly, and it was a very convenient and stress-free experience for a same-day booking. We’d definitely book with him again when we’re in the area.”
“Andrew was absolutely fantastic. We were in Breckenridge on a ski trip and needed someone to hang out with our pup while we skied. We reached out to Andrew and he responded within the hour. He was extremely timly with his responsive both before and during our dogs stay, working with us to potentially change around our pickup time. After we picked our pup up, she was nice and tired, and slept the whole car ride home! When we bring our pup back with us to Breck, we will definitely be reaching out to Andrew for his help!”
About: I provide thoughtful, intuitive care for dogs of all personalities—whether they need outdoor adventure, calm companionship, or a little extra patience and understanding. Hi, I’m Cori — a professional, intuitive pet sitter recently relocated to Colorado from Chicago. In Chicago, I spent years deeply involved in dog rescue, rehabilitation, and fostering, along with providing boarding, daycare, house sitting, and in-home care. This hands-on experience gave me a strong foundation working with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and special needs—including anxious, reactive, and recovering pups who require extra patience and understanding. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely connect with. I have a natural ability to read behavior, build trust, and help pets feel safe and at ease in any environment. I offer a full range of services including dog walking, drop-in visits, daycare, boarding, and house sitting. Each visit is tailored to your pet’s unique needs and may include feeding, structured walks, playtime, enrichment, medication (if needed), and plenty of attention and care. Whether your dog prefers slow mornings and quiet companionship or thrives on outdoor adventures and long mountain walks, I meet them exactly where they are. Living in Colorado, I love providing active dogs with enriching exercise, while also maintaining a calm, grounded presence for those who need a gentler pace. As an added bonus, I also have extensive experience caring for small animals, including birds, guinea pigs, hamsters, and fish. I also hold a degree in horticulture, so I’m more than happy to care for houseplants while you’re away—keeping everything in your home healthy and thriving. Pet care is currently my full-time focus, which means I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate consistent, quality time and attention to each pet I care for. I’m reliable, communicative, and respectful of your routines, and I always provide regular updates with photos so you feel connected and at ease while you’re away. My goal is simple: to give you complete peace of mind. Your pets (and plants!) will be cared for with the same level of attention, safety, and genuine affection I would give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and becoming someone you can consistently count on. I’m a full-time pet care provider, so spending quality time with your pets is my top priority. I’m available 7 days a week for walks, daycare, boarding, house sitting, or drop-in visits. Daily Routine: Morning: Walks, breakfast, and morning play/enrichment Midday: Potty breaks, short visits, or indoor/outdoor play Afternoon: Longer walks or structured activity for active pets; calm companionship for those who prefer it Evening: Dinner, cuddle time, and gentle evening bathroom breaks I tailor each routine to your pet’s energy, personality, and needs. Because pet care is my full-time focus, your pets get dedicated attention, consistent care, and plenty of love every day. Regular updates and photos are included so you feel connected while you’re away. MY HOME: Your dog will be staying in a comfortable two-bedroom condo in Copper Mountain, where their safety, routine, and overall well-being are my top priorities. I aim to make your dog’s experience feel as close to home as possible. I consistently reinforce your preferred rules and routines—whether that means furniture privileges, feeding schedules, or specific boundaries—so your pup has a seamless and stress-free stay. Dogs are welcome on the sofa if that’s something you allow, and I always create a calm, respectful environment tailored to their needs and personality. Daily care includes multiple walks, enrichment, and plenty of attention. For more active dogs, I’m happy to incorporate longer walks or hikes in the surrounding area. For lower-energy or senior dogs, I provide a slower, more relaxed pace with lots of comfort and companionship. I use positive reinforcement techniques to support good behavior and build trust, as I’ve found this to be the most effective and compassionate approach—especially for dogs adjusting to a new environment. Above all, I work closely with you to follow your dog’s usual schedule and preferences, ensuring a happy, balanced, and personalized experience for everyone involved. YOUR HOME: When caring for your pets in your home, their safety, routine, and comfort are my top priorities. I treat your home with respect while providing attentive, loving care for your pets, creating an environment where they feel safe and relaxed.

“Erin helped us out with a last-minute request when numerous other Rover sitters were not available or not responding just before a busy holiday weekend. She was very understanding that our new rescue dog has insecurities and is unsure how to be an easy going pup. Erin is obviously a very patient and loving dog person. We really appreciate her and her cute pup who tried to help Lola open up. I would highly recommend Erin as a pet sitter!”
“Mozelle provided such great care for my dogs! She was very responsive, sent lots of pictures, and my dogs were both so tired at the end of the day (which was the goal!). I could tell she spent the whole time with them and provided enriching activities for my pups. Thanks for everything!”

“This is the second time Natalie has watched our 2 dogs. Once again, we are very happy with the time and care that she has given our dogs, especially because one is an 8-month old lab puppy. Natalie is very prompt, responsible and professional. We know they will be in good hands with Natalie!”
“Elizabeth was amazing! This is our first time in the area and we were very nervous leaving Gigi alone. Elizabeth was great- very responsive, followed all our requests. Gigi looks very happy after the visit”
“Michael has the magic touch with dogs. After 3 walks my boy looked at him with pure love and affection, such a short time for a great bond between them. I am so grateful to have found such a wonderful dog walker for my senior dog. The care, patience, and genuine kindness shown on every visit truly mean everything to me. My pup moves a little slower now and needs extra attention, and that is always met with understanding and compassion. I get great communication, reliable scheduling, and complete peace of mind knowing my dog is safe, comfortable, and loved. It’s clear this is more than just a job — it’s real care. Highly recommend, especially for anyone with an older dog who needs a gentle, trustworthy hand.”

About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities — from energetic adventure pups to seniors who need a slower pace and extra patience.

I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe and comfortable, whether that’s sticking closely to their schedule, providing calm companionship, or getting them outside for structured exercise.

When we are outside, I always like to use a leash and avoid contact with other animals unless you recommend taking your dog to the dog park for social interaction. Part of my yard is fenced in where dogs can play and enjoy time outside off leash. I also have no roommates or pets so my home is a very relaxed and safe environment.
About: I have always loved dogs! I have an 11 year old family labradoodle back in Minnesota and I also helped take care of my roommate's border collie while I was in college. Additionally, in high school, I volunteered at the Animal Humane Society as a dog walker and I also worked at the Petsmart PetsHotel, where I spent my entire days entertaining dogs. During my time in Colorado, I've been working with dogs at Rocky Mountain Puppy Rescue and Dumb Friends League as well as dog sitting/walking regularly. I graduated from the University of Denver in 2019 and I'm currently living in Breckenridge as a ski instructor and working at a sushi restaurant. I can't have my own dog in my house (landlord rules), so I would love to hang out with your dog! During the summer I just work at a restaurant in the evening. I work Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday from 4:30-9ish. Other then that I’ll be around all day! I will make sure your fur baby's safety is my top priority. This means always using a leash unless your yard is fenced in or the dog has great recall. It's important to me to know if your dog is on medication and when/how to administer it as well as knowing what food and treats are okay for your pet to have.
“Eric became quick friends with my beagle Buddy. He takes excellent care of Buddy and always updates me on how their walks went. Eric is very attentive to each dog’s personality and needs. I couldn’t recommend Eric more!”
About: I'll take your dog on all of the adventures! I've never lived without owning a dog and I absolutely adore these amazing animals. I keep my dog active and healthy and love to keep good company for him to enjoy life with. I'm always researching new health tips for my pup and would love to share them with you and your dog! I would like to keep as many dogs as I can active and healthy. I'm available most of everyday, except for days I am in class. I am a nursing student at Colorado Mountain College in Breckenridge and I really enjoy having dogs around as my study buddies. I would like to give what I can to every dog that I have the pleasure of meeting. These animals deserve the world and I'd like to help give them the best care they can get as frequently as they should. I’m currently a student and love to study at home with all the dogs and take plenty of walk breaks! The only time I’m not at home with the dogs is when I’m in class. I have a very friendly boy named Copper who just lost his older brother and is looking for friends to spend time and to play with

“Joan is amazing with our two dogs! She is so responsive any time I message her and takes such fantastic care of our girls! We will always use Joan when we need boarding for our dogs!”
About: I absolutely love dogs, I have grown up with dogs and have George now who I do everything with. He’s been to just about every state in the country. Recently moved back to Utah and looking to get some extra work. My schedule is flexible at the moment so can work around whatever is needed! I will make sure to be very attentive whether it’s at my place or yours. Happy to also go on walks, long or short, whatever the dog likes!
“Sue was absolutely wonderful with my 10-year old GSD. She was very flexible on arrival and pickup times, and never left her by herself alone. I’ll definitely be reaching back out.”
“Bridget is incredible! She took excellent care of my high energy dog and send lots of updates. Bridget was very accommodating and flexible with my flight delays. Highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities — from energetic adventure pups to seniors who need a slower pace and extra patience. I’m especially attentive to routine, behavior cues, and emotional well-being. I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe and comfortable, whether that’s sticking closely to their schedule, providing calm companionship, or getting them outside for structured exercise. I have experience with: Puppies (potty routines, basic manners, consistency) Senior dogs (gentle walks, medication reminders, extra monitoring) High-energy dogs who need both physical activity and mental stimulation Anxious or shy pets, using calm handling and positive reinforcement I’m reliable, communicative, and proactive — you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest check-ins so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I treat every animal as if they were my own, with patience, respect, and genuine care. What truly sets me apart is that I don’t rush care. Your pet gets real attention, not just a check-in — and your peace of mind is just as important to me as their happiness structure my days around the pets I’m caring for, making sure they get consistent attention, walks, meals, playtime, and companionship — not rushed drop-ins. I have the flexibility to: Provide morning, midday, and evening care Take dogs out for regular walks and outdoor time Be present for longer stays and extended companionship Adjust schedules to match your pet’s normal routine I’m mindful of maintaining consistency, especially for pets who thrive on structure or need extra reassurance while their humans are away. Whether it’s a quick check-in, a long walk, or overnight care, your pet is worked into my day as a priority — not an afterthought. I communicate clearly about availability and will always let you know ahead of time if anything changes. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable and routines stay consistent. I follow your instructions closely and treat your space with the same respect I would my own. In your home, I: Maintain your pet’s normal feeding, walking, and medication schedule Provide companionship, playtime, and calm presence (not just quick check-ins) Keep your pet’s environment clean, safe, and low-stress Watch for behavior or health changes and communicate proactively Send regular updates and photos so you feel connected while you’re away I’m attentive to details — from securing doors and gates to respecting house rules and routines. For overnight stays, I ensure pets have consistency, comfort, and reassurance throughout the day and night. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, relaxed, and cared for — and for you to have total peace of mind knowing both your pet and your home are in trustworthy hands.
“Jenna took such good care of my dog, taking him on a great hike for the day I needed her to watch him (even with a short notice of needing her sitting help) Very happy and would recommend!”
“Winsome took great care of our puppy while we were out of town for a frew days. She communicated clearly and shared plenty of updates and pictures. We would definitely book with her again knowing our pup would be well cared for!”
“Absolutely amazing! Cori was so welcoming and kind to my dogs. It was my first time using Rover and Cori was beyond helpful. I dropped my dogs off with her to undergo a surgery in Denver and Cori was absolutely fantastic with communication and posted updates on how much fun the dogs were having. It was really a huge stress taken off my shoulder. Her place seemed perfect for active dogs like mine with a good trail very close by.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I felt anxious about it. When I picked up my black lab Benny at the end of a three day trip, he looked happy and was affectionate towards Ben. I got pictures all weekend from Ben and his girlfriend Mel, I’ve been running on trails and getting lots of time outside. They were both extremely kind, Thoughtful, and professional. I felt at ease and I will for sure use Ben again.”
“Joelle was absolutely amazing with my reactive 8-year old! It’s always a little scary leaving your baby with someone new but Joelle had me at ease from the very first meet and greet. She was great about keeping me updated and sent me lots of photos from her walks. She was also super flexible and accommodating when I had to change pickup plans on the fly. I would have her watch Luna again in a heartbeat.”
“Kyle was amazing with Scout. From our meet and greet with him and Toffee through the entire stay, he was communicative, caring, and helpful. You can tell he loves dogs and I knew Scout was well taken care of. Highly recommend.”
About: Hi! I’m Stuss — a firefighter/paramedic and lifelong dog person based near Keystone/Dillon. Outside of work I volunteer at the Frisco Animal Shelter and with Summit Lost Pet Rescue, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of dogs: puppies, seniors, shy dogs, reactive dogs etc. I’ve also owned two dogs through their whole lives, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your best friend with someone else. My setup is simple: I only take one dog at a time (or two from the same household). That means your dog gets my full attention, a calm environment, and care that’s tailored to their routine — not a busy “pack” situation. I donate 20% of my earnings on Rover to the local animal shelter/rescue work I support. My work schedule is 48 hour shifts, and then I have a block of 4 days off. Some of those days I go on adventures, and some of those days I chill around the house. Those "rest days" are when I open my calendar up for dog sitting, so, your dog(s) will have my company all day while I'm at home doing chores, relaxing, and getting outside. I love to hike year round and I will take your dog with me, if they're up for it. I always match the day to your dog. Energetic dogs can join for longer walks/hikes, and seniors can take it slow with short strolls and extra couch time. I live in a ground-floor condo at the end of a quiet street with trails and open space nearby. With your permission, I also drive a few minutes to local trailheads for variety, and I kind of specialize in knowing quiet places to hike without the crowds. I live alone in a quiet, uncluttered home — great for dogs who do best in a calm space. Dogs are welcome on the couch and bed (unless you prefer otherwise). I stick closely to your dog’s normal routine: meals, meds, potty schedule, exercise, and any special instructions.
“Amanda was great! She responded quickly and was able to accommodate on short notice. She sent pictures and took Maggie on one of her favorite walks! I had a tired pup when I picked her up, which is always a guarantee that she had a good time. I will definitely be using Amanda again!”
“Mozelle is our go-to dog sitter when we're out of state! We are so grateful for her frequent updates, great communication, and the love she shows our dogs. We highly recommend!”
About: I've been caring for dogs my entire life and bring a calm, attentive and intuitive approach to every dog i welcome into my home. I grew up caring for dogs and have owned both Golden Retrievers and a long-haired Dachshund, giving experience with a wide range of temperaments-from energetic and playful to gentle and sensitive. I provide a structured, safe and loving environment where dogs can feel at ease while maintaining their normal routines. I'm highly attentive to each dogs individual needs, whether it's exercise, companionship or simply a calm space to relax. Having hosted many dogs in my home and being a former dog owner looking for care over the years, I understand how important it is for both pets and owners to feel confident and comfortable. My 9-year-old son Bobby is kind, respectful and experienced with dogs adding to the warm, family style environment your dog will be a part of. Nestled in Red Cliff, our home offers a true mountain escape- endless fresh air, trails, a dogs dream playground I currently have full availability, I'm home throughout the day to provide loving, attentive care, regular walks, playtime and calm, consistent routine for every dog. Our home features a partially fenced yard, a peaceful low flow creek on the property and easy access to Red Cliffs dog friendly trails for leashed or unleashed adventures in the backcountry.
“Our pup loved staying at Jana &Colten’s place! I really appreciated that halfway through the day, she sent me pictures of him and updated me that he was doing well. He is on a shy side, so I appreciated Jana’s gentle energy when we dropped him off :) we would definitely rebook, and I think our dog enjoyed his time with them.”
