“Jess takes such good care of LeeLoo, and has always been very graciously flexible with pick up and drop off times for us, to accommodate for unexpected events. We are so lucky to have her help with Loo!”
“I would give Abby 10 stars if I could. She took wonderful care of Dexter while we explored the Montrose/Ridgway/Ouray area. She sent photo updates even when she didn't have to, and puppers had a brilliant time. When we went to pick him up, we noticed that she was walking our five month old puppy (secure area) sans leash, and was happily and obediently following along. The woman is a dog whisperer and the real deal!”
About: I love my own cats, dogs and reptiles of all ages in my household! I will absolutely love your animals as our own 💕💕 I have been in Montrose for 8 years. I always go home during lunch to let our dogs out. My lunch varies. Either I go home 11-12, 12-1 or 1-2. I usually have holidays off. My dogs are kennel trained. I have a fenced yard with plenty of room to run around. My cats and dogs are friendly and vaccinated. My cats are fixed, our male dogs are not. One of my cats is blind.
“Matt and Katy were very welcoming friendly and Benny took to them and their lab pup! Katy went out of her way to accommodate my mopey dog after we left! Benny did relax eventually and ate and enjoyed their pets and warmed up to them! We’re going to revisit them for future dog sitting stays!”
About: Looking for a stress-free alternative to a traditional kennel? With a background in veterinary medicine, I offer personalized boarding on our quiet, rural property in Delta County. I accept only 1-2 dogs (from one family) at a time, ensuring plenty of individual attention, supervised outdoor time in our large, shaded, grassy kennel, and a calm, home-like environment. Daily photo updates are included, and I am experienced with administering medications, caring for senior dogs, and other special care needs. I offer a complimentary meet-and-greet before your dog's first stay. For everyone's safety and comfort, guest dogs must be non-reactive and friendly with children and other dogs. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m on-site the majority of the day and provide attentive, reliable care for your dog. I offer flexible drop-off and pick-up times and am happy to create a personalized care plan to meet your pet’s individual needs and routine. I provide a large, fenced run with access to water and shade as well as a comfortable and secure indoor space. My own dog prefers to spend a majority of nice weather days outdoors but will come inside when the weather is inclement, when its too hot, and, of course, overnight. Leashed walks throughout our 90 acre farm are available as well.
“I've left Cinna with Brenda multiple times now and she always communicates and sends photos. I feel safe with my lil guy in her hands and appreciate her flexibility in my day before bookings. Anytime I'm in Rifle/Glenwood and in need, she's my go-to!”
“Summer was incredible. She was so incredibly friendly, as were her doggies, and she did a great job communicating with us every day or couple of days with photos, etc. Loki, our mini-labradoodle, couldn't have been in better hands. Highly recommend.”
“We are so lucky to have found Stephanie to watch our dogs this past weekend! We rarely leave our girls with new people, however we instantly felt like we could trust Stephanie and were not disappointed. We loved the steady stream of updates and photos/videos and having AirTags on the girls made it fun to watch their adventures throughout their stay. The girls loved having a big yard as well as fit right in with Stephanie’s 2 dogs, and they were in high spirits when we picked them up. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you so much!”
“What a great stay my 2 dogs (golden retriever and standard poodle) had with Bryanna and her adorable daughter and amazing blue weimeriemer for Teluride bluegrass weekend. Bryanna is a dog trainer at heart and they learned a few new skills such as her touch recall. They got to sleep all together on their big comfy couch in their cool air conditioned home and play in their fenced in yard. Our golden escaped several times to chase their chickens in their huge yard but thankfully she dropped them unharmed each time. We will definitely be back!”
About: I grew up loving animals! I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages 🐾 I have had friends, family, neighbors and new people in my life trust and rely on me to take care of their fur babies while they’re away. My main goal is to let the animals (and their family) know they are loved and taken care of! I do have a beautiful daughter! I want to make sure you’re aware that if I do any over night stay’s with your fur babies, my daughter will need to join us. She is very gentle and loves animals! Her first word was “cat!” I can be available whenever you need me! My schedule is extremely flexible and I’d be more than happy to do whatever I need to do to take care of your fur family! Let me know what your animals are most comfortable with and I will do everything I can to make them happy and loved! I can bathe them, take them for walks, play with them with their favorite toys, give them their favorite treats and make sure they have their daily essentials!
About: I have grown up with all kinds of pups…border collies, black mouth currs, aussies, heelers…I currently have a pitbull and a golden retriever myself who I love very much. I also have a cat who is my absolute world. I was taught pet responsibility at a very young age, and also showed steers in 4h, which I feel are just very large dogs. I currently work full time, but I do work from home Mondays, Wednesday and Thursday at my home in Delta. Tuesday’s and Fridays, I am in Montrose. The weekends are pretty open for me, but if at all possible, please contact in advance just in case I am busy! I like to give lots of attention to your pets as well as my own. Lots of playtime for my golden (my pit is an old lady, so she just likes to be lazy).

“This was our first time using Rover, we were a little nervous but we are so happy with how it went. Aubrey is very sweet, fun and playful with our doggies! I have no doubt that they miss playing with her now that we’re back. She was also really great about communicating with me while she was with our dogs!”
“Brenda is the best! We have an anxious special needs kitty that needs injections and doesn’t trust most people, but he sure likes Brenda (maybe more than us)! We feel lucky to have such reliable help.”
About: I’ve taken care of a wide variety of animals for as long as I can remember. I’m an animal enthusiast that will adore your furbaby! I’m available for walks and check-in in the mornings everyday except Saturday and Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. I teach music lessons M,W,F evenings and Saturday mornings, so I’ll have plenty of time to help you with your pets! I will be sure to meet with you and check the best way to care for your animal. Long walks or frequent check-ins, I got you taken care of! Just let me know how I can help you and your furry friend!
About: I’m a 6’4” 200lbs+ man so I’m great with all sizes of dogs including huge. I’m a jogger so if your dogs like to run also we’ll be a great match. I love all animals and I’ve had many pets over the years. I’ve had everything from hamsters to fish tanks. Cats, dogs, bunnies, snakes and even goats. I’m experienced with old dogs and puppies and am happy to walk or take care of either. I currently am working part time at my own discretion so I have an open schedule basically. It changes week to week but it’s flexible and I would be available any point in the day on week days and on weekends. I live in a very quit rural neighborhood with amazing beach and woods walks. I don’t have any pets personally at the moment and I don’t a fenced yard. I was originally thinking I would just walk dogs and do drop in visits but if you’re in a bind I can dog sit here. My aunt visits me regularly and she always brings her dog here. They both absolutely love here too. It’s safe and beautiful here but ideally I would rather not board dogs here.
“Summer is the absolute best pet sitter we've ever had!! She is so efficient, loving to our kitties and communicates very well about each of her visits!! We'll always trust Summer to do our pet sitting for us! Thanks so much! Ann”
“Jess was so wonderful, she took great care of my elderly cat while I was out of town. I came home to a happy cat and that’s all I could really ask for! I would definitely recommend her.”
About: I am a licensed professional counselor. I have one golden, Charlie. I’ve had many dogs over the years so my experience is varied. I take Charlie on daily runs and am fit and ready to give your dog some exercise!! I currently work in Montrose Monday-Friday during the day with weekends off. I am happy to talk more specific schedule questions individually if need be 🙂 I make sure they are comfy and cozy!! I have a child and a dog, so our home is always child/dog proofed! I take directions and care seriously, so I’ll only agree if I’m able to carry out the mission!
“Hayley was wonderful watching Luna for 3 days! She was very reliable and sent helpful updates on her eating, playing, and outside time. The photo updates were great, and it made me laugh that Luna’s 'tortitude' didn’t fade until Hayley broke out the Churus! So grateful I found Hayley and I’ll definitely be booking her again.”
About: I have fostered more around 4-5 cats for the past few years providing quality play time, paying special attention to meal times, and caring for cats with health challenges. I hav been described as reliable and organized, showing up when needed and with a plan to care for any animal
“Definitely recommend. Stacy was there on time each day. She took time to bond with my little cat, who hadn’t been introduced to any other people at that point. The pictures she sent reassured me he was in good hands.”

“Jess's place is off the beaten path and a little hard to find, but it is surrounded by wide-open spaces, which Fred likes. Jess was enthusiastic about Corgies and her Corgi and Fred had a good time.”

I’m able to walk a few times a day. We can also accommodate the more mellow dogs who just want to lounge and get pets.
“Stephanie goes above and beyond with you furry babies. She sent me photos and videos throughout the day of my GSP. She asked what his exercise routine was and made sure to make him tired for me. She took my GSP hiking and placed an air tag on him so I can track whenever! My GSP was exhausted getting back from daycare and that is not easy to do! Would definitely take him back to Stephanie! Thank you for taking such amazing care of my sweet boy !!”
“Haley took care of my 1yr old German Shorthaired Pointer so we could enjoy some time at the hot springs in Ouray. Anyone who knows the temperament of this breed knows it takes patience and energy to care for them. She was great I felt very comfortable leaving her with Haley and her family they gave our dog great care and a fun stay. Highly recommend!”
