“Renata took great care of Scout and Radley! They clearly enjoyed their stay, and it was obvious they were in the hands of a true dog person. She did an excellent job with their food mix and Scout's medications. We appreciated the great care and would happily book with her again.”

“Left my dog feeling stressed because this was his first overnight away from home! He truly could not have been in better hands! I received pictures during his stay and this was so comforting. Thank you, Lynne!”
About: I’ve spent years caring for pets of all ages and personalities—from gentle senior cats to rowdy, playful pups. My background in a pet store taught me animal behavior, nutrition, and how to make every pet feel safe and happy. I’m skilled at giving medications, handling high-energy pets, and offering extra TLC to seniors. With me, your furry friend will get expert care, plenty of love, and endless tail wags! Pet care is part of my everyday life—I share my home with three of my own furry companions, so love, playtime, and feeding schedules are already built into my routine. I’m used to early morning walks, regular grooming, cuddle breaks, and keeping a close eye on health and behavior. Caring for pets isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s simply part of who I am.🐾💕 I make safety my first priority, keeping pets happy and secure. I care for each pet as if they are my own. All animals deserve kindness, respect, and purrr-sonalized care.😌
“Julia was fantastic! She was so sweet with our pups and provided regular updates and pictures. She was very communicative and flexible with our touch and go scheduling. Highly recommend!”


“I can’t thank Melissa enough for watchin’ Maddie for me at the last minute!!! She was incredible and I know Maddie had a blast. I look forward to using her again in the future.”


“Raffelina is an excellent" puppy sitter". She took care of our 15 year old and our 1 year old. She took great care of our older dog who can't hear or see and I believe she was very caring and loving toward her. The same with our little puppy who demands a lot of attention too. Communication with us was exceptional. We received both texts and pictures. I highly recommend Raffelina to care for any pets.”
About: I have had dogs since I was a kid and I couldn’t imagine life without them! I have helped family members, friends and neighbors care for their dogs over the years. I enjoy walking and playing with our dog and will include your sweet baby in our family walks and play! My backyard is safe and secure and has plenty of room for dogs to play and run! I have a doggie door and have found that dogs figure out how to use it with ease, if they don’t have one at their home. My grandchildren are here periodically and are also dog lovers! I’m currently working part time, 3 days per week, 4 hours per day. My dog and I walk about 3 miles, most days. The rest of the day is spent with her following me around and helping me with my chores, even help me go potty!!! I have a fully fenced yard with room to play. I currently have 1 dog, she’s a silver lab and is about 9 years old. She’s a good girl, most of the time! My dog gets dog treats on our walks and throughout the day. She currently eats twice per day, 6 am and 5:30 pm. We are able to adjust schedules for your dog, if necessary.

“Spencer was very good with my two cats. He got the shy independent one to lay with him on the couch. He sent photos everyday and the cats looked very content. Mostly lying around in the same vicinity. Spencer also brought in the packages that were delivered. Would use him again.”


“With so much stress in the world it’s very refreshing to feel totally comfortable leaving my furry best friend with someone like Julia. My pup took to her immediately. Highly recommend Julia and I’ll look her up next time I’m in need of a dog sitter in Salida.”

“Cassidy was great! She stayed with our cat while we were out of town for 2 weeks. The house was clean and tidy when we got home and all our plants were looking good too. I would recommend and rebook for sure.”

I’m certain your dog will be tired when you pick them up and I’ll be happy to host you again anytime.

“Paige was great. I was in Salida working at an event and she picked up and dropped off my dog, she was very punctual. Our two dogs got on well. My dog went on long hikes and was happy and tired when I got her back. Would definitely recommend Paige for anyone needing a sitter or dog walker.”


“I was nervous to leave my dog for the first time and Leanne was so kind and great about it! She sent updates and photos. Shiner had such a good time playing ball and swimming. Definitely recommend!”

“Julia is a kind soul. We immediately felt comfortable leaving our angel baby with a stranger while we went skiing for the day. We also liked the location, it was convenient to grab a coffee on Main Street while she brought our dog down.”

About: Currently, only taking overnight guests (boarding in my home) on a case-by-case basis. Please ask. I have a rescue puppy who so far, gets along great with every dog she meets. I have been around pets all my life. I've looked after my own and friends' and family's animals specifically cats and dogs. I will give lots of time, personalized attention, walks and love to your pet while you are away. I offer in-home pet sitting in my home in town, or in your home depending on your location. This personalized and individualized care compared to boarding or kenneling seems to be preferable for happy pets and owners. I'm fully retired and while I enjoy the outdoors -- hiking and walking, camping and fishing, I also have plenty of time to devote to caring for pets whose owners are busy or away. My yard is fully fenced and conveniently located in the town of Westcliffe. If boarding, your pet would be allowed to treat our home like its own. If in your home (within a reasonable distance), scheduled visits will meet your specific requirements such as play time, short walks and feeding schedules.
“Sarah provided amazing care for both of my dogs when I needed someone to watch them during an impromptu rafting trip in the area. Sarah sent plenty of updates to show just how much fun they were having with her dog! Sarah's communication and attention to detail is 10/10 and I would trust Sarah again without hesitation.”

About: I have been working with all different types of dogs my whole life. Ive owened Great Danes to Chihuahuas. Recently have been walking and sitting dogs for friends. Dogs have an energy that you don't get from working with any other animal or human. I have found working with dogs makes it more fun to "work". I currently am unable to own my own dog, but am very excited to be able to help other owners out. I also enjoy getting outside and being active. If your dog likes to jog, I don't have a problem doing so. Fetch or the dog parks are also fun alternatives, if I know owners are ok with it. I’m currently working overnight shift (9:45pm-6:15am)Sat-Wed, but have plenty of time during the day to take care of your pets needs. I currently don’t have any pets, so I’d love to be able to dote on yours while you’re away. I prefer to sit in the home of the animal that is needing the care, as I feel that makes for an easier transition for the pet.
About: I have had and trained dogs since I was a child. Neighbors, friends and families have relied on me to care for their pets when they were unable to. I have experience with large and small breads as well as cats. My past cat had cerebellar hypoplasia so I also have experience with disabled pets. I am currently working Mon.-Thurs so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pets! I don't currently have any pets of my own but they bring me so much joy! I will take exceptional care of your pets and treat them like they are my own. I am currently working Mon.-Thurs so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pets! I am off around 4pm but my schedule is pretty flexible if your doggo needs to go out at lunch. I am usually around Salida on the weekends. I have an unfenced yard but can take your dog out on a leash and I love going on walks around town! I will take extra care of your pets as well as your home while you're away.
“Aimee is great with my nervous dogs, communicates well, and adapts to the unexpected. My female, Snowflake, sits down when she wants to return home, which she did to Aimee earlier in the walk than usual. Aimee just walked her home and past in another direction to get the walk in.”
“Jamie was the perfect dog sitter for my 6 month old pup! So sweet, best sitter in Mammoth, and will be using again! My boyfriend and I wanted our pup to enjoy the outdoors while he and I went golfing, and Jamie was better than perfect. She picked my pup up and went on TWO hikes with him! She was sweet and sent fun photos and he was perfectly tuckered out when we got home. Thanks Jamie!”
