“It's not easy for me to leave my dogs with someone, especially someone I don't personally know, but I am so glad I was able to connect with Sarah to watch my dogs. My girls were loved and spoiled for the four days they stayed with her. You can feel the care she has for the pups she's watching through her updates and photos. Highly recommend you give her a chance when looking for trusted care for your dogs!”
“As a military family, we have had many dog sitters and Trish is one of the very best. Snooze was so very loved throughout her stay. Trish sent frequent updates and was genuinely sad to see her go. She now has a home away from home. Highly recommend!”

“Simple amazing. We would not hesitate to recommending Ashlie and Shiloh and family. We will use them again. We have a recue dog. Has some trauma from the past. Has problems with trust with people and dogs. They took our dog under their wings. Actually helped him begin to find trust. Just a truely loving home for your love one.”
“I love Donna. She took care of my pup and my pup loved the stay! She had so much fun!! I had to extend the stay a half day and it went so smoothly. I got updates from them every evening. I felt really at ease knowing my dog was well taken care of. Thank you so much!”
“Laura took great care of my pup! She sent lots of pics and updates of all their activities. It was great knowing he was well cared for while I was away!”
“Courtney went above and beyond taking care of our dog. She even clipped his nails, expressed his glands, and gave him a full bath before pickup, which we really appreciated. Our pup can be pretty picky, high-maintenance, and honestly a bit spoiled, but she took such great care of him. He usually doesn’t do well with other dogs, but Courtney clearly understands dog behavior and body language. She carefully managed his interactions and helped him slowly become more comfortable around the other dogs—he even ended up playing with them! She also kept us updated with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. We’re so glad we found her, and it really looked like he had so much fun during his stay. We highly recommend Courtney and would absolutely ask her to watch him again the next time we go out of town!”

“Cedar really helped us out by watching our Zelda at the last minute. She sent lots of pictures and communicated with me the whole time. Our Zelda was well loved and taken care of. Thanks again!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for our dog from Laura! From day one, communication was amazing, and we received regular pictures and updates that truly gave us peace of mind while we were away. Even in a new environment, seeing our pup relaxed, playing, and getting so much attention meant everything to us. The photos and messages showed just how much care and patience went into making him feel comfortable. When we picked him up, he was happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious this isn’t just a business—Laura is someone who genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. We will absolutely book Laura again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate dog care!”

“Amazing! Always kept us informed of how our cat was doing while we were away. Lots of pictures and details, even finding a small skin lesion by our cat's ear. Couldn't thank her enough for her professionalism and friendliness.”
“Bre was able to step in last minute due to another sitter's cancelation. She was wonderful about having detailed check-ins complete with pictures of our cats. She won all three cats over and spent some time playing with them in addition to the basics of feeding/water/litter box.”
“I appreciated the updates daily, seeing photos of my cats daily brought peace of mind while I was away! Bethany was willing to water our tomatoes as well, and she scooped their litter more than requested which was kind. She was patient with our timid cat and played with the one that was interested. She was also friendly when we met up before the trip, and asked questions that showed she was invested in caring for our cats. Would recommend!”
“Grace made traveling away from our cat so much smoother! We knew he was in good hands and her check ins kept us reassured. He took a quick liking to her and we are so happy to have a great pet sitter for future trips!”
“Our cat adored chris! Followed instructions and kept our cat company while we were away for the week. Will be requesting again in the future!”

“Lori is amazing! She is so caring and you can tell how passionate she is about her job. I have used her twice to watch my 2 cats and I would never trust anyone else again. She goes above and beyond what is expected of her as a sitter and gives 100% no matter what. She cares about my cats as if they are her own and I cannot recommend her enough!!”

“Rebecca was timely, thorough, thoughtful, and super loving with my kitty and dog. Great communication. I could tell my pets were happy in their pictures and receiving great care!! Highly recommend Rebecca if you want top quality pet care!”
“Kiley did an amazing job taking care of our pet and our house as well. She did out of the world things that I thought she would never do and she went above and beyond! Even though our cat almost burned down our house lol! She made sure everything was alright. She called the fire department and took our cat to the vet to make sure he was okay as well. She is a tremendous sitter/walker that I would recommend to anyone.”
About: Ive taken care of friends and families pets since high school years. I used to pet sit on a regular basis up until I moved to another state. Im currently unemployed and going to school online. If I'm not at home, I'm usually out hiking or sight seeing with my dog. We usually like to go to dog parks or try to go up in the mountains. I have a fenced in yard and my own dog who's well trained and friendly to all animals. Im always out and about going on small or long walks with my dog.
“We had a great experience with Kirsten watching our pets over the holidays. She took care of our cat, reptiles, and our bird, and we felt really comfortable knowing they were in good hands while we were away. Kirsten was easy to communicate with and kept us updated, which we really appreciated. When we got home, our cat was relaxed and our all the other pets were doing well and everything in the house was just as we left it.”
“Sarah was quick to respond for a last minute booking we needed for a holiday weekend. She followed directions and provided pictures of our cats being entertained. She also brought in some rather large packages we had delivered while we were gone.”

They come home happy and content and I know they have had a great time with Donna, her dog, Opal and her husband, Dave because they come home and sleep. Also there are always lots of terrific pictures. We are thankful for Rover and Donna!”
About: I have taken care of animals my entire life and have had many different pets from childhood into adulthood. I have been a trusted house and pet sitter for over 10 years. I live an active lifestyle and love to take runs/walks (your dogs can join me)! I work part-time from home, with a very flexible schedule, so I can make just about any time work for the care of your fur baby! I will be able to let your pet out as much as needed and will be sure to make them a priority! I live on Fort Carson with a fenced yard (with grass!!!!) and pet friendly home. The area is very walkable! I will ensure that your pet is in a safe environment. I like to stick to the animal's routine as much as possible, hang out with them, and make sure they get as much exercise as they need. I have one dog - a labradoodle who is fixed and very friendly - he would love to play with your dogs too!
“The dogs had a blast! Erica is very quick to respond, keep you updated & has a very fun backyard for your pups!! Can’t wait to use her again ❤️”
“Heather took such good care of my baby! Her dog Gauge was the perfect playmate for him too. My dog can be anxious but she made him feel very comfortable. She took him on walks, played fetch, and sent lots of pictures so I didn’t have to worry at all! I’d highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Wonderful first sitter experience! Wendy had a wonderful time with Kiley last week. Although we don’t need a frequent sitter, we met prior and I knew Wendy would be well cared for. I received pictures and videos throughout the day. Kiley is kind and loves animals!”
“I dropped my pup Monkey off for a few hours with Sarah while my partner and I went to the hot springs. Sarah had a few other dogs in the house and she let us come in and meet the pack/ watch Monkey meet them all. One of the dogs wasn't thrilled about the new member so we decided it was best to keep the pack split. Monkey had a blast playing with a new friend outside in the yard and inside, and Sarah sent me photos and a video which I loved :) I would definitely trust Sarah again to watch my baby girl!”
“Kevin was great ! Great communication skills and very great service. I felt comfortable leaving my dog in his care and would definitely recommend!”
“Kim was a lifesaver on our trip to Colorado Springs, many of the activities we planned didn't allow dogs and we felt so comfortable leaving our doggo with her. She was super flexible on times and we even added an extra day! She sent videos and our pup was so happy when we picked him up and excited when we took him back the next day!”
About: With 5 years of dog boarding experience, I welcome dogs of any size and any needs into my home — from small breeds to large, energetic pups to gentle seniors, and dogs with special routines or extra care requirements. I'm attentive to each dog's individual needs, whether that means specific feeding schedules, medications, mobility considerations, or just knowing how much play versus rest they like. Your dog will get consistent, personalized care, a safe environment, and plenty of attention while you're away — I treat every dog boarding with me like a member of the family. I'm a stay-at-home mom, so I'm home all day for belly scratches, potty breaks and walks. This means your dog will get LOTS of attention. I have a fenced yard and a very happy loving 4 year old Golden Retriever who is always happy to meet new friends and show them around. We do have three children so its important your dog be kid friendly (this also means 3x the belly scratches).
“Thank you so much for taking care of Rosie!! She obviously had a great time, she didn’t even want to leave when I came to pick her up. Thank you for the pictures! You really helped me out more than you know!”
“Booch spent her first day with Jocelyn. I loved getting the pictures and report. Booch was a bit nervous at first but Jocelyn was so kind. Booch was active all day with Pumpkin and is now resting. Booch can't wait for her next visit.”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every pet. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to follow your instructions closely and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. As a full-time student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable daily or weekly care. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'm happy to accommodate what makes them happiest. I'm aso patient and attentive with pets of all ages, including puppies who need consistency and positive reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require extra care, gentleness, or medication reminders. My goal is to give you peace of mind by treating your pet like they're part of my own family. As a full-time student, I have a flexible schedule and can easily adapt to your pet's daily or weekly care needs. Whether it's regular visits, walks, feeding, or extra attention, I'm committed to providing dependable, loving care that fits your pet's routine. Moving as much as I have , I understand how nerve wracking it can be to hire someone to take care of your pets, hoping they will be kind and as caring as your are. I would love to be the positive experience for you and your pet . I appreciate detailed instructions from pet owners so I can provide the best possible care and keep your pet's routine consistent. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and attention, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they're in my care.
“Mara has been fantastic with my mini Aussie - she is very attentive to details and makes sure to follow instructions to a T. Highly recommend!”
“Megan was amazing & so caring with our dog Gus! I feel so much better knowing that he is in good hands. We will definitely be booking her again for more pet care.”
About: I have always had a dog by my side growing up. I volunteered at my local animal shelter in high school, and I have always loved to pet sit for family and friends whenever possible. I am a full time graduate student, with classes only Tuesday-Thursday, leaving me plenty of time to care for your pets during the rest of the week! I will make sure the environment is safe when walking pets, ensuring they won’t be injured from objects on the ground or other animals. I will ensure the terrain is also not too hot or cold for their feet. I will also not let them overdo it outside!
“Heather was great with my 6 month old lab puppy! She made sure she got enough exercise and play time, and took good care to make sure she did not overheat. She was very communicative and sent great pictures and updates during my puppy’s walks. She was very understanding when my instructions changed a few times. I will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Bethany and her family have been wonderful with us and taking care of our puppy. They are extremely flexible and understanding with our hectic last minute changes. I can’t thank them enough knowing my little man is taken care of while I am at work. Highly recommend if you are looking for a reliable dog walker.”
About: I enjoy dogs more than people. When I used to live on Guam, there was a period i was watching 4 dogs, 2 of which were mine. One happened to be a pit bull, and another happened to be rottweiler. The other 2 were medium sized. Now, that I am no longer in Guam I have 3 dogs that me and my wife take care of. I have my 2 from Guam. I havent been around all types of dogs, but I really enjoy them all. I find their different personalities and their energy levels interesting. I enjoy walking my dogs, so I think it would be fun to walk other peoples dogs. When I’m not working and time permits, i like taking my pups hiking in the mountains with me. Thank you for checking out my profile ! I walk my three girls at least five days a week. And when I have a day off, i love taking them into the mountains. Each dog is different. Different pup parents have different plans for their babies, so their rules come first. But if permitted, i would love to share the same trails I explore with our four legged partners.
“Nancy is great. Extremy professional. Excellent communication and service. Nancy clearly takes her care for your pet very seriously. We look forward to working with her in the future.”
“Dylan was excellent! Came over to do a meet and greet the next day and came over every day to walk my dog for two weeks. I would highly recommend.”

“We are so thankful for Dixie and helping us why we were out of town!! She did a great job helping give our pup exercise, and aid my grandparents while they were dog sitting!! She is very kind and even walked her in extremely cold weather!! Thank you Dixie for making sure pepper got her energy out while we were away!!”
“Mackenzie was great! This was first time I had to leave my dog home alone while I was on a trip and she took such good care of her. I got lots of pictures and she kept me up-to-date with any minor tummy aches that Mira had and followed instructions to help make her feel better. I will definitely use her again.”
About: My house was the "Animal House" growing up. Dogs of all sizes, cats, parrots, turtles, fishtanks, snakes, you name it, we had it. Waking up and going through the process or getting everyone food and water, meds, clean sanitary areas, the endless laundry of cat beds and dog blankets, it was all a part of my daily routine from the moment I could remember. I was always the first to volunteer to care for others pets, mostly because it was an excuse to enjoy their pet and make a new friend! I'm currently working about 30hrs a week, but I'm looking to open up my schedule to accommodate more time with animals as I can. I much prefer pets to people, and I would much rather spend my time helping animals! I do not offer services within my home currently due to the age and temperament of my senior cat. Within a client's home, of course their routine rules! If a dog is skeptical about kenneling, walking, etc., everything comes at their pace. Rushing and getting worked up won't help anyone, and patience and soft energy will help foster a much more cooperative relationship with animals of any kind. I am nervous any time I have to leave my cats in someone's care, and I want every pet to be treated the way I would want someone to treat my cats!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and understand the importance of providing safe, reliable, and loving care. I currently have two dogs, both of whom have been professionally trained, which has given me valuable knowledge of positive reinforcement, leash manners, and handling dogs with different personalities and energy levels. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I have experience looking after friends' and family members' pets while they are away. This has included feeding, walking, playtime, providing companionship, and following each pet's individual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I also have experience walking dogs and understand the importance of keeping them engaged, exercised, and safe on every walk. Whether your pet enjoys an active outing or a slower-paced stroll, I'll tailor their care to their individual needs. I'll treat every pet as if they were my own, providing them with patience, attention, and plenty of love. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the day. Daily walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of attention fit naturally into my routine. I'm available on both weekdays and weekends and can accommodate a variety of schedules. I enjoy spending time outdoors, so making sure pets get the exercise, care, and companionship they need is something I genuinely enjoy. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special instructions so I can provide consistent, personalized care. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll make sure they have plenty of exercise, playtime, fresh water, meals on schedule, and lots of love and attention. I always use secure leashes and harnesses during walks, closely supervise pets, and create a calm, safe environment where they can feel comfortable. I have two friendly, professionally trained dogs, so I understand the importance of positive reinforcement, patience, and respecting each dog's individual needs. I'll also keep you updated with regular messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
