“Alexa was so great with Leo and I really appreciated the photo updates she gave. In chatting with her for a few mins, I instantly felt at ease leaving my pup over night. He had a great time and I will always check if Alexa is available whenever I’m back in the area. 100% recommend. Thanks again!”

“We feel so lucky to have found Amanda! We wanted to do a 14er but knew it would be too much for our 8-year-old Clover. We reached out to Amanda who was quick to respond and took great care of our baby. We received a lot of photos and updates. Clover had a great time. We will definitely be reaching out again.”

“Absolutely amazing. She helped and understood a group effort to have George watched during a wedding and was not only according but so understanding! Felt great and knew George was in great hands”

“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!!”

“We had to travel last minute for meetings and Jamie took care of our dog Puddles. She did an amazing job with him and her puppy Copper spent endless amount of time playing with Puddles. She also took Puddles to the dog park and he played in the yard. Endless amounts of fun and exercise. He was definitely worn out when he got home. A great sign that he had a very good time at Jamie’s. Highly recommended! ?”

About: I fostered animals throughout my years in my college home. It was rewarding to prepare them for their forever home, and I loved every moment. I work remote, so I can do hours 4 pm-9 pm on weekdays (I get off at 4) On the weekends, I can do any time! I enjoy being active and being around animals. By keeping your companion at ease while you can't be there, it will be calming my stress as well. Win win!

“Buddy loved his time staying with Natalie, her husband and dog Iko...very nice people. He was smiling when I left and when I picked him up. Loved the cute pics they sent of him while I was away. They have a beautiful spot in the country with some running-around room. Highly recommend Natalie!”

“Demetria and Jonathan took such great care of Ham and we couldn’t be more grateful! He was given lots of love, pets, walks, and time laying around in their fenced backyard (which he LOVES to do). Truly felt that they treated him like he was one of their own and that’s the most you can hope for from a dog sitter. He barely wanted to even leave when we came to pick him up 😂 that shows you how kind they were to him!”

“She was great with my red heeler which is awesome because my pup can be a handful. I really appreciated the open land for the dogs to run around and I think my pup had a great time with her dogs too. Overall, very satisfied!!”

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!
“Erin was amazing! I dropped my pup Blanca off with her for the weekend and she absolutely loved her stay! Erin made sure she got plenty of exercise - including a day of snowshoeing - and got to play with her friendly goldens. Erin’s home is great for dogs that love to run around outside. Erin was very communicating throughout the process and sent picture updates. Very caring and loving of pets, I’ll definitely ask Erin to l board Blanca in the future!”

“Jamie helped us out with our 2 dogs while we were visiting Colorado. We had a long trail day and couldn’t take them with us. Jamie was available for a meet and greet and the dogs loved her. She took great care of them while we were gone. We will definitely book her again the next time we are in the area.”

About: I have grown up with dogs since I was a kid including two golden retreievers! I have been living in the mountains since 2015 and I have been lucky enough to live with roommates that have had dogs and a few cats! I have taken care of pets all the way from a husky puppy to an older dog who needed special care including giving meds everyday! I currently work at Copper Mountain as a server so I am usually working from 10:30-3 or 3-9pm but can be flexible for the right situation! I prefer staying at the clients home or even stopping in to take care of your furry pets only because I am unable to have pets where I live. I unfortunately won't be able to give this service because I can’t have pets where I live but I am happy to go to yours!

About: I have my own cat that is at my friends to provide his dad some cuddles, so I miss him dearly and would love to show up for your pet whichever way they need while my cat is on his socializing duties! I enjoy their different personalities, cuddly versus aloof, they all are so cute and deserve the world. I enjoy building trust over time with them and giving them the safe space others may not know how to respect tor nurture. I have taken care of old and young kittens through time pet sitting as well.

I follow instructions to a tee. I try to be as professional as possible!

About: Hi! As a kid I had multiple dogs through out the years; a Golden Retriever, Jack Russel, Chow mix, and now my parents have a 110 lb Golden doodle who I see a few times a year. Here in Colorado I have my own Wire Hair Terrier and "something else mix", named Iko. He's a sweet heart who loves to run, hike, back country ski, and lounge on the porch in the sun. I think dogs are happiest when getting enough exercise, attention, and socialization, and I promise to provide that for your pup. My husband and I petsit for friends often, and love having some extra pups in the house, it helps our dog get good healthy socialization and tuckers him out a bit! Both my husband and I work from home, so your pup wont be left at home alone for long periods of time. Please let me know if your pet does have any separation anxiety, or if being left alone is a concern. My house has a 1 acre fenced pasture for your pup to run around in, I'm also less than a mile from National Forest where I can take your dog on leashed walks/runs.

Being a homeowner myself, I will treat your home with the utmost respect and care. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give your pet the attention he or she needs. I can bring your dog along on my daily trail runs if you’d like. Animals are on a leash at all times outside of confined spaces unless the owner specifies otherwise. On longer runs, I make sure dogs have access to water.

“Natalie and her sweet family were absolutely wonderful with Albert! Great communication and plenty of updates throughout his stay. He came home happy and tired! Thanks again, Natalie!”

“Elfat was easy going and flexible when I was booking with her as I didn’t know specific timing for day care needs at first. Her dogs were friendly and playful with Lola which I appreciated.”

About: I’m a dog mom of a perfectly mixed rescue boy! We love getting outside! Walking, running, hiking, swimming, sunbathing! We’d love for you to join us and then maybe later we can take a nap 🤪 I’ve grown up with dogs and I have many furry nieces and nephews as well. Dogs to me are equal, if not better than most people. 😉 I’ll treat your cutie(s) like my own and make sure they get all the love, attention, and exercise they need! I'm available whenever! 24/7 any day as I'm in between jobs and taking a much needed break. I am currently in between jobs and am free to spend as much quality time with your pets as needed! I have a dog of my own and we wake up around 6 am for breakfast and our first walk. I have an unfenced year in a really quiet area. I have a line hooked up for my dog since he's a runner, but can accommodate whatever you and yours prefers. Strict leash walking is what we're used to, but happy to be off leash for those with impeccable recall. We also have a gated front porch that gets really nice sun during the day and we like taking breaks out there for short periods of time.
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.
“My senior boy Mr. Duff had a great time at Demetrias. She is clearly gentle, kind and so loving towards the dogs in her life. She showed the same care towards my own dog. She lives in a beautiful area with a great fenced in dog run. Thanks again Demetria!”

“Catherine was wonderful - very flexible on time, sent lots of pics, located right in town, and had a gorgeous backyard for our pups to play in. It worked out great for us, on vacation in BV, when we needed a place for our pups while we were rafting, etc. Would definitely recommend and book with her again!”

“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!”

“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.”

“Lila is very responsive, down to earth, and sweet. I love that she is very talkative, and not just somebody who seems like they are in it for the money. Not once did I feel awkward or uncomfortable with leaving my dog with her. She was very caring, and my dog was taken well care of for the day. She updated me as well, and sent pictures. 10/10❤️⭐️⭐️”


“Amanda was awesome. She took exception care of my dog Zelda. Even reached out to a vet tech when my pouch had stress symptoms. Amanda showed a deep concern and tenderness for Zelda’s stay with her. She is a devoted care sitter for dogs.”
“Andrew was the best person to trust with our babies today. He was also very flexible and accommodating to us tonight which was very helpful as things def did not go as planned today.”

“Elizabeth took complete control and looked after our Layla so well. We even ad to change our times and this was no issue for Elizabeth. Would definitely recommend and if we are back in Breckenbridge again we will definitely use Elizabeth.”


“I’ve never seen my dog so happy with a sitter. There’s something special about Jamie. She helped make our adventure possible and I am ever so grateful. Thanks for watching over Abby Jamie! Hopefully you’ll be available for next adventure in Winter. Thanks!!!”

About: I’ve been a dog mom to an amazing pup for 15+ years. My girl is now a blind senior so dog life has become slower paced. I miss long walks/hikes with dogs. I would love to spend time with your four-legged fur babes. I’m an active person who will never skip a walk no matter the weather (unless I can’t physically reach your home due to snow/ice/etc). Puppy to senior, I will take sincere care of your best friend(s). I work from home so have a very flexible schedule with most days available on short notice. I understand that last minute things come up; I am happy to help out in a pinch! I am not able to provide care to your doggo(s) in my own home however would be happy to in yours (your dog’s preferred environment). I am trustworthy, dependable (no flaking on you last minute), and caring. I will treat your home better than my own.
About: I grew up with dogs of all sizes including a 30lb beagle and a 105lb black lab. I lived on a farm with horses, cows, goats, and chickens so I know how to work with animals. My black lab was a rescue who loved to pull on walks, lunge at cars, and be reactive around dogs and I enjoy the process of teaching dogs how to walk properly and safely, especially near vehicles. I also enjoy training basic commands like sit, stay, paw, spin, and recall. I work fully remote and have a flexible schedule where I am able to play, train, and walk the dogs before work, during lunch break, and after work. My Wife and I live in a 4 bedroom house with plenty of room and no other pets. We live on a private HOA dirt road with minimal traffic. Typically when doing doggy-daycare, I will do a short walk in the morning, and longer walk at lunch 30-60min, and another short walk in the afternoon.

“Kimberly was really flexible with us as we moved the times around on her at the last minute. We were able to get a long trail run in and knew the dogs were taken care of. Thanks!”

About: I grew up taking care of dogs and absolutely love them. Our pets are a part of our family. I think they should be loved and cared for while their owners are away and not put into a cage for the weekend. This causes stress and anxiety! Why should we be having all of the fun our pets deserve a normal weekend while we are away! I enjoy being outside and taking our dogs for walks and playing fetch! I also enjoy just snuggling up with our pup and watching a movie! I will take care of your dog like it is my own so you can have fun and not worry while you're on vacation! I am dependable and honest. Call me for your next vacation!
About: I have been taking care of a large variety of dogs for 20 years. From eight weeks old to 16 years old, from pugs to chows and pitbulls to 140 pound malamutes I have cared for them all. I can come by to walk and feed your best friends once a day or stay and cook them meals as per your request. I want to make sure you and your loved ones are as comfortable as possible while you are away. I do freelance work so I have pretty open availability. Making sure you're needs are met so you are comfortable is my top priority. If for some reason I can't meet all of your needs I will tell you before committing to something that doesn't fit my schedule or abilities. I am here for you. How I care for your pets and home is mostly dependent on your requests. I give medicine, food and exercise as requested. I can simply fill a food bowl, measure servings and even cook protein and veggies for your dogs if that is what you want. I am happy to keep you updated or send you pictures if you'd like. Walks are as far/long/plentiful as requested. I want to provide you with the comfort of knowing someone is there to care for your loved one as you would while you are away.
About: I have had dogs ever since I could remember as a kid. I have experience sitting for small, big, old, young, and medically complex animals, also including cats and reptiles. I have administered medications/observed certain pets as well that needed a little extra attention. I really enjoy engaging your pets in the routines you have set for them and being silly with them to bring them out of their shells. I miss having my own dogs who have sadly passed from childhood and would love to spend time with them! I currently work early mornings, but can switch that around, Friday-Wednesday, usually off by 3pm. I would be able to house sit any of these days and do walks any morning and afternoon! I ensure I understand expectations from every owner on their routines and desires. I ensure I keep the place clean and give the animals the space, as well as attention, they need! I try my best to mimick what their usual routine is so when the owners get back, the transition is smooth and less anxiety stricken for both parties.

“Natalie and her husband Jack were wonderful. I had surgery and was unable to walk my dogs. They were there for me in a pinch and walked my blind dog and ran with my rambunctious younger dog. Both dogs loved them! Very nice people with great dog handling skills!”
