About: I have over six years of hands-on experience caring for dogs through volunteering, fostering, and private dog sitting. I’ve worked with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors — providing walks, feeding, medication, playtime, and lots of love. I’ve also volunteered with All Aboard Animal Rescue, where I gained experience handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I always make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away, keeping their routine consistent and their tails wagging. Pet care fits smoothly into my daily routine! I have classes at 8 a.m. and 1 p.m., which still leaves me plenty of time throughout the day for walks, feeding, and playtime. I love spending my mornings and afternoons with dogs, and I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and affection. Whether it’s early walks before class or extra snuggles in the evening, I always make time for quality care. Safety and comfort are my biggest priorities when caring for dogs. In my home, I create a calm, clean space with room to play and rest. When I’m caring for dogs in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to keep routines consistent and pets feeling secure. I pay close attention to feeding times, leash safety, and environment setup to ensure every pup stays happy, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away.
“We were so please with Marie. Our Ayla girl seemed to have enjoyed her stay. She had many playmates to choose from and Marie was so good about updating us on how Ayla was doing. She answered promptly when I would msg with questions. She sent multiple pictures / videos so that we could see all was well. This was our first attempt at using the Rover app and our experience was great. Even if we did act like parents dropping our 2 yr old at day care for the first time. If we are ever in Glenwood springs again, we will definitely look to use Marie again. Thank you Marie for a very positive experience 😁”
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities.

I treat each dog like part of my family and focus on creating a safe, calm, and fun environment while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate feeding times, walks, play sessions, potty breaks, and any special care instructions your pet may need. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while in my care. Whether it's a quick drop-in visit, daily walks, or overnight care, I am committed to keeping your pet happy, comfortable, and following their usual routine as closely as possible. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I make sure they are in a clean, secure, and stress-free environment. I carefully follow each pet owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and daily routines to help pets feel comfortable and maintain consistency. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality, needs, and preferences, ensuring they receive the appropriate level of attention, exercise, and affection. During walks, I always use secure leashes and remain attentive to my surroundings. In a client's home, I treat their space with respect and make sure their pet receives loving, reliable care while they are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Monica was absolutely exceptional! She took such wonderful care of our dog, Bea, and treated her like one of her own. Every day she took Bea to the lake to play fetch, which was the highlight of her day, and it was clear she received so much love, attention, and exercise. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would gladly book Monica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for outstanding care.”
“We’ve had wonderful experiences boarding our dog with Katie and Ryan. They are communicative, kind and willing to accommodate our dog’s medication schedule. We received regular updates and photos, and it’s clear our dog was happy and well-cared for in their care. Highly recommend!”
About: I have leash trained and kennel trained dogs over the years and train animals through gentle repetition and reward. Comfortable with special care such as medication or reasonable accommodation. I work from home during the day. We have a Golden Retriever named Biscuit and a Kelpie named Indi who are both super friendly and ready to play. We would prefer daytime services aside from boarding. I've lovingly cared for dogs since age 10, my mom’s farm in Missouri currently has 5 border collies. I love animals. Family, Neighbors and friends have trusted me for years to provide attentive walking & feeding for their furry companions. Currently since we have ample space on the ranch for outdoor play I have decided to start these services. We will have frequent trips to nearby parks like Sutey Ranch, Red Mt and Crown Mt.
“Lu took wonderful care of Ada for 5 days while my family was traveling. He sent daily updates and photos, and Ada was quite happy during her stay with Lu and his family. It’s great to have found a warm, kind and responsible host for Ada in the Roaring Fork Valley. We will definitely use Lu again!”
About: Patient and loving pet sitter with 6+ years of experience. Going out for stress relieving walks around the town, up trails, and hikes. Providing great care while having fun adventures! I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. I will make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while you’re away. Your pet will receive lots of love, attention, and supervision while in my care. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and safe.
About: I live on a 16 acre farm, away from the city, making it extra safe for your fur babies. I will walk your fur baby on our property where they will enjoy a creek, get to visit our goats and chickens. I don't just provide basic supervision and love; I offer tailored care for pets at opposite ends of the age spectrum. I have extensive experience managing the energy of puppies, utilizing positive reinforcement to maintain your potty training and crate routines. Equally, I am deeply patient with senior pets who need slow-paced walks, joint support, and are on a medication schedule. I have lots of room for your pet to run and play and enjoy their time while they are with me. I have a small farm in New Castle and I am happy to watch your fur baby while you work or go on vacation. I have traveled before and I know the stress that can be added when there isn’t a safe place for our fur babies to go. I am excited to help take the pressure off and love on your fur baby while you are gone. I have a fenced yard and shelter to keep your fur baby safe. I also have two fur babies to keep yours company if they like animals, if not, I can keep our two dogs separated.
“David was great with our very scared 7 month old puppy Buzz. He introduced him to other dogs, watched out for him and walked him daily. I am very thankful that we connected with David and highly recommend him.”
About: Hi! My name is Hannah and I’m looking to get back into dog sitting/walking on the weekends. I grew up with dogs my entire life and have always loved animals. I have dog sat for neighbors and friends for years. I currently have a 7 year old Pyrenees/lab mix and he lives the best dog life. I’m strictly a weekend doggie caretaker as I work full time during the week. If you need a dog sitter while away for the weekend, I can help! I’m very patient and attentive to the dogs I will take care of. They will be in great care at my apartment and there’s plenty of (unfenced) property I live in but happy to bring them outside with a leash too. I am happy to watch your dog in your home as well!
“Jess was a great dog-sitter for us. This was our first time using Rover.com and we were very satisfied with the care and updates provided by Jess while on vacation. She is highly recommended.”

“Sarah always does a great job taking care of my sensitive and complicated kitties. She makes it a lot easier to leave down and not worry due to excellent communication and loving care. Sarah is the best!”
“Tiffany exceeded our expectations in every way! She took care of our fur baby and was thoughtful enough to wipe her feet down after walking her in the wet grass. Our pup can't wait to have her over again!”
“Aspen was incredibly helpful. She went beyond our agreement when I got stuck for 5 hours due to a highway shut down. She came back after already taking my dog for a walk that day due to a last minute request to let her out and feed her after I had been gone over 12 hours. She’s trustworthy, responsive, and is very kind.”
“Suzanne followed all instructions to a tee and even was willing to use her own cat food when the order being delivered was delayed. She was timely in her visits and sent pictures each time. My cats were happy and healthy when I arrived home. Definitely would use Suzanne again.”
About: Hi! I’m Christina, an experienced pet care professional with years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. As a professional dog groomer, I’ve learned how to read canine body language, build trust with nervous pets, and provide calm, patient, individualized care. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, hiking, or simply curling up on the couch for cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and I know how important it is to keep you updated, so you can expect plenty of photos and messages throughout their stay. I’m comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and caring for puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special needs. My goal is to give your pet a fun, stress-free experience while giving you complete peace of mind. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! I currently work full time at a grooming salon in ocean springs, yet my schedule is flexible to be able to take your pet on walks, play time or to be able to do drop in. Safety, trust & environment are big things in the relationship with your pet care provider. I plan to write everything you tell me down along with making copies to ensure I have all the information on your pet at all times. I also believe in sending plenty of pictures & videos of your pet to ensure that trust is built.
“Kat, watched our cat for two weeks while we were on a trip. She took great care of him and sent us messages about how he was doing while we were away. She left the house in excellent shape after staying there for the duration. She is easy to work with and responds quickly. Would highly recommend.”
“Lu and family are professional, communicative and very nice people. My cats, who are very shy, loved their company - I was pleased to see how friendly they were with them. Highly recommend!”
About: I strive to treat everyone's furbabies with the highest level of care as if they're my own. I've cared for every age of dog and cat for...really my whole life. I can administer medications and keep an eye on and assist more "special needs" furbabies if needed. I am a Biology major and try to learn as much as I can to care for animals the best I possibly can. I am currently working on animal first aid but I do know human FA so I can spot an emergency and care for minor wounds. I am currently working as needed at my job but, even then, my days are really open. I do have medical appointments here and there so sometimes I just need to leave the house for those but I try to return to the house expeditiously because I dont want the animals to be alone for too long. I understand not leaving dogs (especially) for too long between potty breaks so I can work around that but I try to stay at the house for 95+ percent of the time I am sitting. I purposely work around the animal's schedule so that they can be as comfortable and cared for as possible. I try to get as much information from the owner as possible so that I can make the time as similar to when the owner is around. I know changes can be stressful so avoiding any as much as possible is the best. I am known to be a cuddler but if they want their space I can definitely give it. I can give outside time to the best of my abilities and can transport in my own car with great safety if needed (e.g. if they love lake play, etc.). For younger animals, I can give regular care and make sure the space stays clean and cared for as best as possible. I understand that they need more supervision and help. I also try my best to keep an eye on outdoor heavy animals and shy animals to make sure theyre doing alright during my stay as well.
About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats for the past 8 years. Including some who needed extra care. I’m happy to help anyone in need and make sure their pets get all my love and attention. I’m currently a nursing student at the University of Tampa and am flexible with afternoons/mornings during the week. I am also available all day Friday-Sunday. I am experienced with dogs who need to be leashed, have an electric fence in the backyard or that come to when called. I have given baths/groomed, walks, runs, playing catch and cuddles.
About: Ever since I can remember, I’ve been surrounded by animals. Growing up with three large dogs and two cats gave me a strong foundation in animal care and a lifelong love for pets. Over the years, I have volunteered more than 130 hours with animal shelters and rescue organizations, gaining hands-on experience with a wide variety of tasks including walking, bathing, administering medications, transporting animals to and from veterinary appointments, and fostering dogs in need in my home. I’m also a full-time dog mom and currently work part-time from home, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and provide attentive care. I love spending time outdoors, whether that’s long neighborhood walks, hiking local trails, or simply enjoying fresh air with a happy pup by my side. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I would love the opportunity to help with all of your pet care needs and provide peace of mind while you're away. I have two dogs at home that I care for full time. First thing in the morning I let my pups outback into the fenced in yard. I then feed them breakfast around 7:30am. We love to go to the park or for walks, we do this every day. Some days we will head up to a lake or reservoir for some swimming. We have dinner in the evening and potentially another walk. When caring for a pet in your home, I like to do a meet and greet with the dog first if that is a possibility. When being in your home I can provide the dog with treats and a slow introduction to gain their trust. Once this has been completed, then I will go about their daily routine per your request.
“Had a great drop in experience with Natalie who booked the service within four days before the appointment. She handles our pet who was a nervous nelly during our short time away. Thumbs up emoji”
“Chelsea took amazing care of my two kittens while I was gone for the week. Her thorough notes and many pictures and videos made it much easier to be away from home. My cats are particularly friendly and attention-loving which she was happy to accommodate. You can trust her with your pets!”
About: I have grown up with always having animals around. I have lived on multiple farms, and have volunteered with several animal sanctuaries, including one for wildlife in Costa Rica. I also have spent the last five years fostering animals with the Humane society as I lived in Asheville and completed my schooling. Through this experience, I have worked with neonatal newborns, pregnant and nursing mothers, potty training- ages, senior pets, and those who take medication. As I create this account, I am traveling and petsitting on the road. My schedule is very flexible because of this, and so I am open to long or short stays. Every animal is unique, and I love to get to know their personalities and preferences! It is my goal to ensure that animal and animal parent both are happy and comfortable.
“Nadia was great! She was very accommodating with our schedule and took great care of our cat. He has never stayed with a stranger before but seemed very happy and stress free when I picked him up. Nadia also sent pictures from time to time.”
About: I have years of experience taking care of both dogs and cats. I was the main person to take care of both a cat and dog growing up starting when I was ten. I currently have two dogs, but I also love cats! My wife is a veterinarian, so I am around a lot of animals and am prepared in case of an emergency (hopefully there aren't any). Being a teacher, I have summers off and am looking for dogs to walk or check in on during the day or cats to check in on. I am currently not available to stay overnight as I also have a baby at home. I am a compassionate and caring person, which is the first thing that your dog or cat will notice about me. I will check in on them and spend time with them to make sure everything is going great when you are gone!

“Sofía was great! She was very communicative and responsive. I love that she took photos of Charro through out his day and she gave me a peace of mind that he was well. Overall, Sofia was very friendly, easy to work with and I really appreciate her care for Charro while he was with her.”

It was our first time leaving our dog with someone- and she was so flexible and kindly listen to a worried puppy parents’ long list of things she should know about Sully... whenever we need a sitter near glenwood springs, we will be looking up Nicole! 10/10 would recommend!”
“Monica was very warm and welcoming. Dropped off the pup so I could spend a day at the hot springs. She was eager to hang out with new people and seemed very relaxed when I picked her up. Would definitely book again!”

About: I am based in Carbondale, CO. I am currently pet/house sitting full time throughout the summer so I'm able to provide a high level of care for pets and homes throughout the valley! I've cared for my own dogs, roommates' dogs, friends' pets, Trusted Housesitter stays, and Rover sits over the past 10 years. I've cared for dogs from puppyhood to 13 years old. I've also cat-sat for friends, Trusted Housesitters, and Rover clients over the years. I'm happy to take them on walks, hikes, dog parks, and potty/play breaks throughout the day. The longest I've watched someone's pet was for 2 months, and I loved it! I'm also happy to take them camping if that's their jam. Feel free to reach out with any other questions! A note on transportation - In addition to my ambulance camper, I have an e-bike I often enjoy cycling throughout the valley, so parking availability at your home should not be an issue. I currently am full time pet sitting for the summer. I am very attentive and love morning, midday, fetch, and evening walks. I can take them to the dog park or on hikes, or if they're good with bikes, I can take them on even longer run/bike rides. I am very respectful and clean when staying at a client's house. I treat it like my own (if not better). I love going for walks with your pup and keeping them on a leash. I also don't give in to the cute puppy eyes when I'm eating my food and keep them to their parents' approved food and treats.

“Nevada took such great care of my timid dog. Her own personal dog also did a great job of feeling mine feel comfortable and at ease. Nevada sent me pictures thru out the visit and was even able to do pick up/drop off”
“Good communication and super flexible. We used Megan for daycare as we hiked close by. Jersey was well taken care of and Megan was flexible with pickup after we finished out hike. Thanks again!”
“Katie was so friendly and accommodating during our last minute request! She was so sweet and I immediately trusted her with my Pomeranian. I would absolutely use her again and recommend her highly!”
About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I understand that every animal has unique needs, personalities, and routines. I’ve worked with pets of many different temperaments, behavioral challenges, and health conditions, so I’m comfortable adapting my care to ensure each pet feels safe, understood, and well cared for. I approach every sitting opportunity with a strong sense of responsibility and professionalism, while also providing genuine love, patience, and attention. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or requires extra care, I strive to create a positive and comfortable experience for both you and your pet. I am currently working in healthcare Monday-Friday 7am-4pm so weekdays are best for evening sitting or boarding pets that can handle being alone for that time. I am completely free on the weekends. I am an early riser and love to get out and enjoy the sunshine with a pet but am happy to stay close to home for pet needs. I do prefer to walk on leash as I don’t have a fenced in area and do like to ensure safety of the pets I care for and others around. There is a fenced in dog park a short walk from my apartment to let dogs run off leash if approved by owner. I don’t have any pets in my home so if I am to sit at my residence the pet would be in a secure and private environment. I keep a clean and safe household for all types of pets. I also am respectful and receptive to all household and pet needs on an individual basis.

About: A lifetime dog-lover! Volunteer dog walker at Colorado Animal Rescue. Have been a proud owner of Labrador retrievers and a basenji! Dog walking is my sole pursuit, so you can expect wide availability: 7 days a week from dawn to dusk. Walk at the dog's preferred pace -- happily jog with a dog needing a higher level of activity. Expect me to follow these rules to keep your dog safe and healthy: - Maintain your dog on leash always. - Avoid contact with people and other dogs. - Small treats are provided only to reward desired behavior -- unless the owner specifies no treats. - Have fun! Always! I love dog-walking so much that I am happy to walk your dog any time from sunrise to sunset, seven days a week including holidays! I invite pets into my home and am always happy to visit with your dog in your home. I will keep the dog safe, stick closely to the dog’s normal routine, and respect the home as if it were my own. And potty breaks, of course!
About: I’ve been caring for fur babies since I graduated high school, giving both puppies and senior dogs the special attention they need. I love animals of every shape and size and treat them like my own—because let’s be honest, they run the household anyway. Your pet will get a happy, stress-free stay with plenty of love, snuggles, and top-tier spoiling. I work a full-time job during the day, but I’m available for drop-ins and visits in the late afternoons and evenings. I’m also free all day on Sundays, as well as one select weekday depending on my schedule. If you communicate your needs ahead of time, I’ll always do my best to make it happen. Your fur baby’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I come to your home so your pet can stay in their favorite place, surrounded by familiar smells and routines.

“**A Memorable Experience in Carbondale and Glenwood Springs** We had the pleasure of booking Aspen during our camping trip to Carbondale, and she truly made our adventure unforgettable. Aspen's flexibility allowed us to enjoy two wonderful days exploring the hot springs in Glenwood Springs. She went above and beyond by taking our pups, Mia and Daisy, on a delightful hike, ensuring they had as much fun as we did. Her care and attention to our furry friends were evident, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. Aspen's love for animals and her dedication to providing exceptional service made our trip even more special. We wholeheartedly recommend Aspen to anyone seeking a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. Her commitment to our pets' well-being and her warm, friendly demeanor made all the difference. Thank you, Aspen, for adding that extra touch to our memorable getaway!”

“Jasper has been a huge help walking our dog, Birdie. She can be very nervous and somewhat reactive around new people, but he has been incredibly patient and accommodating with her. He’s given her the time and space she needs to slowly warm up, which we really appreciate. Jasper is always timely, responsible, professional, and very communicative. You can truly tell he loves animals, and Birdie is in great hands with him!”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life! I absolutely love walking, playing and giving dogs all the love and care they deserve. From taking care of my own dog to helping friends and family out with theirs, I am here to help when you need it! I am currently off from work on Mondays giving me lots of time then to walk/check on your pups anywhere in the valley then! On Sundays I can walk/drop in on pups in Aspen and the other days I am often available for early morning or evening walks. I treat every pet like my own and work with owners to make sure they are getting the care they need. Just let me know how to make your pup the happiest they can be while you’re away!
About: I have grown up with always having animals around. I have lived on multiple farms, and have volunteered with several animal sanctuaries, including one for wildlife in Costa Rica. I also have spent the last five years fostering animals with the Humane society as I lived in Asheville and completed my schooling. Through this experience, I have worked with neonatal newborns, pregnant and nursing mothers, potty training- ages, senior pets, and those who take medication. As I create this account, I am traveling and petsitting on the road. My schedule is very flexible because of this, and so I am open to long or short stays. Every animal is unique, and I love to get to know their personalities and preferences! It is my goal to ensure that animal and animal parent both are happy and comfortable.
About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats for the past 8 years. Including some who needed extra care. I’m happy to help anyone in need and make sure their pets get all my love and attention. I’m currently a nursing student at the University of Tampa and am flexible with afternoons/mornings during the week. I am also available all day Friday-Sunday. I am experienced with dogs who need to be leashed, have an electric fence in the backyard or that come to when called. I have given baths/groomed, walks, runs, playing catch and cuddles.
“We have 2 older dogs, and Morgan was great with them! We had her come to our house 3 times a day to care for them. She left us daily updates on text, and would respond promptly if we would reach out. She really put our mind at ease, and our dogs loved her.”
About: Ever since I can remember, I’ve been surrounded by animals. Growing up with three large dogs and two cats gave me a strong foundation in animal care and a lifelong love for pets. Over the years, I have volunteered more than 130 hours with animal shelters and rescue organizations, gaining hands-on experience with a wide variety of tasks including walking, bathing, administering medications, transporting animals to and from veterinary appointments, and fostering dogs in need in my home. I’m also a full-time dog mom and currently work part-time from home, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and provide attentive care. I love spending time outdoors, whether that’s long neighborhood walks, hiking local trails, or simply enjoying fresh air with a happy pup by my side. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I would love the opportunity to help with all of your pet care needs and provide peace of mind while you're away. I have two dogs at home that I care for full time. First thing in the morning I let my pups outback into the fenced in yard. I then feed them breakfast around 7:30am. We love to go to the park or for walks, we do this every day. Some days we will head up to a lake or reservoir for some swimming. We have dinner in the evening and potentially another walk. When caring for a pet in your home, I like to do a meet and greet with the dog first if that is a possibility. When being in your home I can provide the dog with treats and a slow introduction to gain their trust. Once this has been completed, then I will go about their daily routine per your request.
About: Hey, I’m Marie (and my husband Loki also pet sits with me) and we’d love the chance to spend time with your pets! We have pet sat many dogs of all ages and sizes over the years, from rescues to purebreds, young and old. We are active people who love going outside for walks and hikes as much as we love cuddles from furry friends. We sit at your house, or board pets in our own home with a shaded fenced in yard. I hope you’ll choose us to spend some time caring for and loving your pets! Hope to hear from you! Please note we do pet sit multiple dogs at a time. Some days we have up to 12 or 15 dogs when it’s extremely busy. I work from home and usually am not out of the house for longer than 1-2 hours, at most 4-5 hours. Loki husband doesn’t start working until 3pm most days so your pets have us home a lot! In our home: we have a doggie door and fenced in yard. We only accept dogs at are friendly with others at this time, because we often watch more than one dog at a time. Up to 15. In your home: about the same as above! My husband and I will usually stay at your home together and will try to leave it cleaner than we found it. We pull sheets and get the load started so when you get home, your pup is happy, and you only have to transfer the sheets to the dryer. We consider ourselves great guests and have gotten great feedback from owners happy to come back to a clean house.
“Chelsea is so reliable and professional. She truly has a soulful love for dogs and knows them well! I feel so relaxed when I know Chelsea is watching Theo. She goes beyond the duties that are required. She is a trustworthy sitter.”
About: I strive to treat everyone's furbabies with the highest level of care as if they're my own. I've cared for every age of dog and cat for...really my whole life. I can administer medications and keep an eye on and assist more "special needs" furbabies if needed. I am a Biology major and try to learn as much as I can to care for animals the best I possibly can. I am currently working on animal first aid but I do know human FA so I can spot an emergency and care for minor wounds. I am currently working as needed at my job but, even then, my days are really open. I do have medical appointments here and there so sometimes I just need to leave the house for those but I try to return to the house expeditiously because I dont want the animals to be alone for too long. I understand not leaving dogs (especially) for too long between potty breaks so I can work around that but I try to stay at the house for 95+ percent of the time I am sitting. I purposely work around the animal's schedule so that they can be as comfortable and cared for as possible. I try to get as much information from the owner as possible so that I can make the time as similar to when the owner is around. I know changes can be stressful so avoiding any as much as possible is the best. I am known to be a cuddler but if they want their space I can definitely give it. I can give outside time to the best of my abilities and can transport in my own car with great safety if needed (e.g. if they love lake play, etc.). For younger animals, I can give regular care and make sure the space stays clean and cared for as best as possible. I understand that they need more supervision and help. I also try my best to keep an eye on outdoor heavy animals and shy animals to make sure theyre doing alright during my stay as well.
About: Lifelong animal, pet, and nature lover! I have been caring for other people’s pets for over 15 years. At times, life got a little too busy for me to continue with this enjoyable “work”, but now I am able to re-cultivate this passion once again. From walking your dog, to taking them on adventures and hikes, to overnight stays, I am available for your precious pet’s need. I have a Chihuahua mix of my own that I rescued in 2020, and he is such a sweetheart and a major lover of cuddling. During my downtime, I can be found reading, hiking, cleaning, or doing yoga. For a small additional fee, I would love to help you with any other needs you may have, such as house work, organizing, cleaning, or light yardwork. I strive to meet all the needs and desires of your fur bab. From walks, to hikes, to overnight stays, I aim to make myself available! I work in an office setting M-Th 8a-5p, but I typically have flexibility with many breaks and a long lunch. I work from home on Fridays. About twice a month, I am on-call on the weekends (8a-8p), and will provide more details if that overlaps with your booking. I live in Rifle, so I offer drop-in visits and dog walking from Glenwood Springs to Parachute. For overnight stays, I will travel from Aspen to Grand Junction. I have a fenced yard for potty breaks, and a doggy door that leads to my little yard. My dog doesn’t use the doggy door, so I am happy to keep it closed if that is your preference. I love to go on walks with dogs, and will walk them for whatever amount of time they are used to or suits their energy level. I have a sweet, small dog that is friendly to all animals he meets. He will play with your pet, or give your pet space, he is happy either way.

About: I have over six years of hands-on experience caring for dogs through volunteering, fostering, and private dog sitting. I’ve worked with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors — providing walks, feeding, medication, playtime, and lots of love. I’ve also volunteered with All Aboard Animal Rescue, where I gained experience handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I always make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away, keeping their routine consistent and their tails wagging. Pet care fits smoothly into my daily routine! I have classes at 8 a.m. and 1 p.m., which still leaves me plenty of time throughout the day for walks, feeding, and playtime. I love spending my mornings and afternoons with dogs, and I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and affection. Whether it’s early walks before class or extra snuggles in the evening, I always make time for quality care. Safety and comfort are my biggest priorities when caring for dogs. In my home, I create a calm, clean space with room to play and rest. When I’m caring for dogs in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to keep routines consistent and pets feeling secure. I pay close attention to feeding times, leash safety, and environment setup to ensure every pup stays happy, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away.
“We were so please with Marie. Our Ayla girl seemed to have enjoyed her stay. She had many playmates to choose from and Marie was so good about updating us on how Ayla was doing. She answered promptly when I would msg with questions. She sent multiple pictures / videos so that we could see all was well. This was our first attempt at using the Rover app and our experience was great. Even if we did act like parents dropping our 2 yr old at day care for the first time. If we are ever in Glenwood springs again, we will definitely look to use Marie again. Thank you Marie for a very positive experience 😁”
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. What sets me apart is the combination of patience, reliability, and genuine love I bring to every pet I care for. I treat each dog like part of my family and focus on creating a safe, calm, and fun environment while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate feeding times, walks, play sessions, potty breaks, and any special care instructions your pet may need. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while in my care. Whether it's a quick drop-in visit, daily walks, or overnight care, I am committed to keeping your pet happy, comfortable, and following their usual routine as closely as possible. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I make sure they are in a clean, secure, and stress-free environment. I carefully follow each pet owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and daily routines to help pets feel comfortable and maintain consistency. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality, needs, and preferences, ensuring they receive the appropriate level of attention, exercise, and affection. During walks, I always use secure leashes and remain attentive to my surroundings. In a client's home, I treat their space with respect and make sure their pet receives loving, reliable care while they are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Monica was absolutely exceptional! She took such wonderful care of our dog, Bea, and treated her like one of her own. Every day she took Bea to the lake to play fetch, which was the highlight of her day, and it was clear she received so much love, attention, and exercise. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would gladly book Monica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for outstanding care.”
“We’ve had wonderful experiences boarding our dog with Katie and Ryan. They are communicative, kind and willing to accommodate our dog’s medication schedule. We received regular updates and photos, and it’s clear our dog was happy and well-cared for in their care. Highly recommend!”
About: I have leash trained and kennel trained dogs over the years and train animals through gentle repetition and reward. Comfortable with special care such as medication or reasonable accommodation. I work from home during the day. We have a Golden Retriever named Biscuit and a Kelpie named Indi who are both super friendly and ready to play. We would prefer daytime services aside from boarding. I've lovingly cared for dogs since age 10, my mom’s farm in Missouri currently has 5 border collies. I love animals. Family, Neighbors and friends have trusted me for years to provide attentive walking & feeding for their furry companions. Currently since we have ample space on the ranch for outdoor play I have decided to start these services. We will have frequent trips to nearby parks like Sutey Ranch, Red Mt and Crown Mt.
“Lu took wonderful care of Ada for 5 days while my family was traveling. He sent daily updates and photos, and Ada was quite happy during her stay with Lu and his family. It’s great to have found a warm, kind and responsible host for Ada in the Roaring Fork Valley. We will definitely use Lu again!”
About: I live on a 16 acre farm, away from the city, making it extra safe for your fur babies. I will walk your fur baby on our property where they will enjoy a creek, get to visit our goats and chickens. I don't just provide basic supervision and love; I offer tailored care for pets at opposite ends of the age spectrum. I have extensive experience managing the energy of puppies, utilizing positive reinforcement to maintain your potty training and crate routines. Equally, I am deeply patient with senior pets who need slow-paced walks, joint support, and are on a medication schedule. I have lots of room for your pet to run and play and enjoy their time while they are with me. I have a small farm in New Castle and I am happy to watch your fur baby while you work or go on vacation. I have traveled before and I know the stress that can be added when there isn’t a safe place for our fur babies to go. I am excited to help take the pressure off and love on your fur baby while you are gone. I have a fenced yard and shelter to keep your fur baby safe. I also have two fur babies to keep yours company if they like animals, if not, I can keep our two dogs separated.
“David was great with our very scared 7 month old puppy Buzz. He introduced him to other dogs, watched out for him and walked him daily. I am very thankful that we connected with David and highly recommend him.”
About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I understand that every animal has unique needs, personalities, and routines. I’ve worked with pets of many different temperaments, behavioral challenges, and health conditions, so I’m comfortable adapting my care to ensure each pet feels safe, understood, and well cared for. I approach every sitting opportunity with a strong sense of responsibility and professionalism, while also providing genuine love, patience, and attention. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or requires extra care, I strive to create a positive and comfortable experience for both you and your pet. I am currently working in healthcare Monday-Friday 7am-4pm so weekdays are best for evening sitting or boarding pets that can handle being alone for that time. I am completely free on the weekends. I am an early riser and love to get out and enjoy the sunshine with a pet but am happy to stay close to home for pet needs. I do prefer to walk on leash as I don’t have a fenced in area and do like to ensure safety of the pets I care for and others around. There is a fenced in dog park a short walk from my apartment to let dogs run off leash if approved by owner. I don’t have any pets in my home so if I am to sit at my residence the pet would be in a secure and private environment. I keep a clean and safe household for all types of pets. I also am respectful and receptive to all household and pet needs on an individual basis.
“Under Stuart's care, I felt at my dog was well cared for and loved while our family was away. He provided great attention and love to my doggo with awesome communication and pictures to keep us at ease while we were away. Would certainly rebook with Stuart in the future and would have no problem recommending others to use him as well.”
About: I love animals and have 5 dogs and 2 cats of my own back in Montana. I have raised dogs and cats my whole life. I grew up doing 4-h and take pride in my work.
