“My dog was very well taken care of with Maggie! Lots of snuggles, walks, and attention. She was there for 15 days and came home happy and calm, which let me know she had had a good stay. I’ll definitely be leaving my dog with Maggie again as she provided me a vacation where I didn’t have to worry about my dog at all, and knew she was in great hands.”
“Francesca was wonderful! It was evident that our pup Oslo loved her. She sent great updates and pictures throughout the stay which we really appreciated. We already can’t wait to use her again!”
“Madeline took wonderful care of George during our wedding weekend! We needed some extra help since George was a part of our big day. Maddy helped make sure that George was exercised, and then transferred to our wedding day handler. George had a great time, we had a bunch of pictures that made us feel good and everything was super smooth. Would 100% recommend!”
“Georgia was so wonderful with our dogs. She took such great care understanding & accommodating their individual needs and behaviors. I would not hesitate in asking Georgia to watch Rosie & Daisy again. It’s nice being able to relax while away, knowing they’re in her care. The picture & video updates were great as well!”
“Ruby was with Sean and Kim for 16 days, which is the longest we have ever left her, and I can’t say enough good things about them. We got daily updates with photos. She went for walks every day and also got to hike her favorite trail with them numerous times. She loves her new doggy buddies, and based on the photos she clearly loves Sean. She came home healthy and tired, and we were able to enjoy our extended trip knowing that she was in such great hands. 10 out of 10 recommend.”
“She is great, and my kitty had a whole room to himself! She spoiled him, and worked hard to keep him happy and healthy. Will definitely trust her anytime with my little dude.”
“Delane is awesome! I have a feeling she may love my dog as much as I do and that is really satisfying to know he’s in great hands and that I have nothing to worry about!”
About: Dogs have been part of my life since I was a kid. I regularly watch my sister’s dog and two friends’ pups, so I’m very comfortable with various food routines, walks, and keeping dogs happy while their people are away. I work from home, so I have plenty of time and flexibility for pet care. I take my sweet pup on three walks a day - morning (20-45 min), afternoon (10-15 min), and evening (20-45) - and visiting dogs are welcome to join us. When the weather is nice, dogs can move freely between inside and outside in the large fenced yard (unless you prefer otherwise for your dog). I have a large fenced yard, plus a creek and open space just out my door for daily walks and longer adventures. Your dog will get plenty of walks, attention, and couch time. I love having dogs in my home and treat them like part of the family while they're here.
“Elise and Matthew took such great care of our dog while we were away. It’s so comforting to have kind, reliable, trustworthy people to rely on for our dog when we are gone. Thank you both!”
“Barbara was absolutely wonderful and took great care of Kona along with her husband and their dog, Mel! Barbara sent a batch of photos and a report of their activities each day and we knew that our chocolate lab was getting plenty of exercise and also made a new friend with Mel. Lots of ball and walk and swim and play. They live in a great spot in Boulder with quiet trails surrounding them. We knew that Kona was safe, loved and also entertained. Really a great experience. Thank you Barbara and Julian!”
“Joann did a great job watching my “senior” golden retriever for 4 nights. She sent photos and great feedback each day. I felt super comfortable with Joann and will definitely use her again!”
“Addison took such wonderful care of our dog Lily, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Addison was incredibly attentive, kept us updated, followed all of Lily’s care instructions, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Lily came home happy, comfortable, and well cared for, which means everything to us. We would absolutely trust Addison with Lily again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and thoughtful pet sitter. Thank you Addison, for taking such great care of our little girl!”
“Della was fantastic and we will definitely leave our dogs with her again. She was communicative, sent pictures, and thought carefully about our dogs needs!”
“Sophia took excellent care of my dog. Perhaps the best sign is when I picked her up, she went back in the house and tried to stay with Sophia instead of come home with me. She even gave Stella a bath before pick up without my asking.”
“Sebastian had such a great time getting lots of love and attention from Sophia and her family! Sophia communicates very well, and you can tell your dog will be in good hands when you meet her and the family. Sebastian loved having a doggie buddy with Ziggy and didn’t want come home! Thanks again Sophia! 🫶🏻”

“Linnea did a wonderful job taking care of our cats! She was very responsive and flexible. Our cats were calm and well adjusted when we arrived home.”

“Jana is the absolute best! She took such good care of our cat. We appreciate how happy she kept him over the holidays - we could tell he felt safe and comfortable with her and that put us at ease leaving him for the first time ever. She sent wonderful photos every day that made our entire day whenever we got them. We are so grateful to Jana! ☺️”
“Diana took good care of my catson Benny and was great about communicating updates. I came home from my trip away to find him well and happy! I recommend her services for anyone with cat sitting needs.”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my entire life. Growing up on a farm taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand animals’ unique personalities and needs. Today, I’m the proud owner of two Golden Retrievers, so I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need consistency and training reinforcement to senior dogs who require extra patience, attention, and specialized care. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’m committed to providing attentive, personalized care that helps them feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide consistent attention throughout the day. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to accommodate walks, potty breaks, play sessions, feedings, and check-ins that fit your pet’s normal routine. My flexibility also makes it easier to accommodate last-minute requests whenever my schedule allows. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions before care begins. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or my own, I provide a calm, attentive environment and make sure they receive plenty of exercise, affection, and supervision. I understand that every pet is different, so I follow owner instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, medications, walking routines, training commands, and household rules. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away.
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, chickens, and bunnies for the past ten years! I have experiencing taking care of animals while house sitting for long stretches of time. I love getting outside, walking, and running with dogs! I am reliable, gentle, and love getting to share new connections with animals. It would be so great to take care of your animal babies! I'm currently in grad school but have significant room for walking, dropping in, and overnight stays. My schedule is mostly busy during the days on Tuesday and Thursday, but I have time in the morning, evening, and afternoons. I stick to what each owner/parent prefers. As for my dog, he is really good about recall so we are able to let him run around the backyard without fencing. When we walk on trail he is mostly on leash unless we are in the backcountry. Again, I stick to what each owner prefers for their animal baby!
About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I've also helped friends and family with pet sitting, walks, feeding, and daily care. Being around dogs has taught me how to understand their different personalities and needs, whether it's an energetic puppy that needs lots of attention or an older dog that requires extra patience and care. I treat every pet like they're my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I'm currently working a part time job around 8-16 hours a week and I am a full time student but my actual class time is about 2 hours on Tuesdays and thurdays. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make sure to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so their pets feel comfortable and stress free. I provide fresh food and water, take dogs on walks, give them plenty of lovin and playtime, and make sure they get any specific care requested by the owner. I also enjoy keeping the home clean and tidy, sending updates when requested. But my priority will always be the pet's safety, comfort, and well-being while their human is away.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have six years of professional experience caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Whether I’m helping a friend, family member, or client, I treat every pet with the same love and care I would give my own. I am certified in Dog and Cat First Aid through the American Red Cross. I have a flexible schedule and an active lifestyle, so pets in my care get plenty of attention and exercise throughout the day. I want your pet to feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed, so I’m always happy to follow their usual schedule to make their stay feel as close to home as possible. Your pet’s safety and happiness always come first. I have a fully fenced yard and live right by Chautauqua, so there's plenty of space to play and explore. While I adore hosting social dogs, my home is also a great environment for dogs who prefer to be the only pet in the home, since I accept only one client at a time. I'm happy to accommodate multiple dogs from the same household, though!
About: I started dog sitting for my neighbors when I was 12. My family got 2 dogs when I entered high school and I was the main care giver. Now that I am living somewhere that does not allow dogs, I love the opportunity of getting to care for other dogs and treat them as my own family. I work from home 3 days a week (M, T, F) so your dogs will have full access to me those days! If your home has WiFi and your dogs need more consistent attention, I'm comfortable working from there as long as you are too. Overall, my job is pretty flexible and I am available for midday walks, etc. I treat all dogs as if they were my own. Having grown up with one dog who was NOT and one who WAS all cuddles 24/7, I totally understand when dogs need some time and space to get used to a new person. I will meet your dog wherever it is at with their personality and make sure we both feel safe in our environment and have a good time, whatever that means for your dog.

About: I have been around animals since I was little and have hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes, personalities, and needs. The safety and well-being of your pets is my top priority, and I will always make sure your pups have everything they need to feel happy, healthy, and comfortable while you are away! I work from home, so I am always available to walk, cuddle, and play throughout the day! I also go on walks regularly with my pup Milo and would be more than happy to accommodate for any specific routines and needs that your pet may have. I live in a quiet, spacious apartment right by the park. I have 1 dog of my own, Milo, who is extremely friendly, playful, and sweet. He gets along with everyone, including other dogs and cats! Milo also grew up with kittens, so he knows how and when to be more gentle with other animals.
“Georgia successfully tired out our energetic, border collie puppy Nancy! She was communicative throughout the day and took Nancy to play in the creek. Thank you!!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for weeks at a time for the past four years in Colorado and Southern California. I love having your pup around as a friend and companion here in boulder, CO! Your dog can expect lots of walks, hikes, playing in our backyard, and many cuddles! I work remotely from home so have time to take your dog out on walks, feed them at the times they are used to, and hang out and play! I have a fenced in backyard and a park right around the corner. I am comfortable taking your dogs on walks and hikes in the area!
About: I provide personalized, one-on-one care so every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat each dog like family and take time to understand their unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your dog needs long walks, active playtime, or calm cuddles, I adapt to what makes them happiest and most relaxed. I am patient, reliable, and detail-oriented, so you can feel confident your dog is in good hands while you’re away. I’ve had dogs my whole life and have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all personalities and needs. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and care throughout the day. Whether it’s regular walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I can easily adjust to their routine and needs. I provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for pets in my care. I live in an apartment and have access to a fenced outdoor area for secure outdoor time and walks. I do not currently have any dogs in my home, so your pet will receive my full attention.
“Murphy had a lovely time at daycare with Barbara and her family. She arrived at home utterly exhausted after a full day of activity (her favorite!) Thank you so much, Barbara!”
About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life! I had three cats and a dog growing up, along with helping out with pets of my other family members. I did an unpaid internship at a veterinary hospital so I know how important it is to take good care of our animals! I’m currently in college classes for a few hours a day during weekdays, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! Now that it’s getting warmer outside, I’m excited to be able to do outdoor walks with your pups! My home is laid out so there is no danger of your pet getting into anything and I live in a good neighborhood for walking around!
“Laika's stay with Alison went well: she was socialized with other dogs, which is great, and she had access to the outdoors to romp and play. She was sleepy when we got home, which is fantastic. :) Alison also sent plenty of pictures so I got to appreciate some of the adventures Laika was having.”
About: I’m active, work from home, and a dog-lover. I have a flexible work from home schedule, so your pup gets consistent attention, frequent bathroom breaks, and never long stretches alone. I share my home with Mabel, my 4-year-old golden retriever. We're outside every day on local trails, dog-friendly hikes, and the dog park across the street. Mabel is friendly and welcoming to all pups. No yard, but Boulder is our backyard. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes through friends and family, and I treat every pup like my own. Your dog will get personal attention, plenty of activity, and a flexible routine that works for them. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. Happy to coordinate with you to ensure your dog’s needs are met. Able to step out with your pup for bathroom breaks whenever needed. I don’t have a yard, but my golden retriever needs exercise each day. We’re outside every day on local trails, dog-friendly hikes, and the dog park across the street. Boulder is our backyard!
“Emilie helped us out tremendously with some last minute day care. She's quick to respond, friendly, and I felt at ease leaving our pup with her. Two big thumbs up from us!”
About: I’ve been in love with dogs since I can remember, and my favorite type of work/volunteering has always involved them. When I was 15 I started dog sitting for my family friend, I watched and walked little Johnny twice a week for almost 2 years while his mom was out doing errands. After that, I started volunteering at the LoveJoy Foundation, an animal rescue in California. I walked dogs, cleaned crates, and even helped with vaccinations once a week at adoption events! My time at LoveJoy was one of the most rewarding experiences ever, and it taught me how to work with different types of dogs and different behaviors, including neurodivergent and disabled pups. I have a family dog of my own, sweet Montana, who will always be my best friend no matter how far apart we are. Montana is a bit older now, so we mostly enjoy hanging out on the couch together, but in his prior years I loved taking him on hikes, to the dog beach, and really anywhere that I went. I also have a crested gecko named Axel! I’m currently a junior at CU Boulder, so I do have school during the week but only for about 2-3 hours each day, most of the time I’m home to care for a pup! I absolutely love being outside here in Boulder, it’s too beautiful not to be, so walks and adventures are plentiful! I have a large house for your pup to roam around, but if it’s preferred that he stays in a crate during the day I can accommodate that too! My yard isn’t fenced, but we would have a lot of outside time at the park and on walks exploring all corners of Boulder. I do have experience dog sitting in client’s homes, I know that some dogs are probably more comfortable staying in their own home!
About: I’ve always loved being around and caring for dogs! I’ve had a dog of my own for almost my whole life, who I care for on the daily. When a friend is in need of a dog sitter they come to me and I care for their pup like my own! I am home very often on a daily basis so I have lots of time to spend with your pet and care for their needs! This leaves plenty of time for play and attention. I have a big fenced in yard where the dog can run and play along with my energetic 4 year old dog. Your pet can be crated if needed/desired but is welcome on the furniture just like my dog!
“I’ve been a reoccurring client of Christine’s. She’s been a great pet sitter and friend to my pup. Christine is always accommodating and communicative. I receive several photos, videos and check-ins throughout each visit. I recommend Christine for any pet needs. My pup is always excited to see her and comes home tired from a full day of hikes, walks and play!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets my entire life, from volunteering at animal shelters to eventually managing one, I have such a passion for animal wellness. I can give meds to pets, care for any special needs they have and work with high energy or “difficult” pets. I love them all, from hyper mouthy puppies to needy seniors! I’m currently a data scientist exploring new employment opportunities with an incredible passion for pets. I’ve previously managed an Animal Shelter and trained volunteers on both feline and canine behavior. I am a foster for Longmont Humane society and am a rescue mom to three cats and two dogs. I have a half acre privacy fenced backyard for pets that visit. I have a large SUV for transporting pets that want an adventure or need daycare pet sitting.
“Bretta is incredible! She was so patient and caring for my pup during his stays with her. He was extremely anxious but she was able to help him feel secure while I was away. She did an excellent job of checking in and trying methods to help my dog. We were so lucky to find her and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly caring sitter and an overall quality stay!”
About: I have over 15 years of dog caring experience, involving different breeds, ages, and personalities. My specialty is smaller doggies. My philosophy with care makes sure dogs get active time, park time, quality time, fun adventures, time with friends, and lots of affection. I make sure your doggy needs are met, being versatile with the activities we do while they stay at my place. As a mostly remote worker, I have a lot of flexibility and ample time to take your dog on walks and give them lots of care and attention, be it on the couch or outside. Doggies have access to water, clean bowls, toiletries, and all their basic needs. My entire place is dog-proofed, so hazard mitigation is present. Dogs have the opportunity of enjoying different surfaces based on their needs, including hardwood, carpet, rugs, and a comfy couch.
About: Ive walked and sat off and on with wag for several years and enjoyed it with no issue. I was suggested this app instead while I live in boulder. Free most weekdays and some weekends. I am a private Chef and only work for events on random days. I will update my schedule as I have datesm I meet every pet where they are and offer a very calm and welcoming environment. Without worry of several people in and out or loud noises. Plenty of parks and trails to walk as well.
“Terry provided wonderful care for our dog Coco. Coco loved playing with her dogs and was excited to get out of the car each morning to go and see Terry. Terry sent me very sweet pictures of Coco having fun and was easy to communicate with. We will definitely use Terry again in the future.”
About: Beginning as a volunteer and rescuer, I then moved into pet and house sitting. I continue to foster and volunteer with a local animal rescue and treasure my time with all kinds of animals. I am creating this profile to highlight my specialty services such as dog running, homemade pet food, and portraiture.** A lover of all animals and nature, I’m happiest with both. My touch and voice are gentle, and my style is consistent. Having pets of all kinds and sizes growing up and continuing into adulthood has been a sincere source of joy, gratitude, and service. In the last few years, my time spent volunteering at a local rescue has greatly expanded my experience and skill- especially with special needs animals. Special services and care that I offer include: ~applying my professional chef training to prepare specialty pet food for unique needs, allergies, anxiety, or other conditions alleviated with herbs and nutrition ~when house/pet sitting for you, I’m happy to address the refrigerator and pantries to prepare food before it spoils and leaving you a home cooked meal upon your return or storing in your freezer ~professionally cleaned, organized, and stocked kitchen for you while you are at work or away Additionally, I have been trained and actively competing in Colorado roller derby for 7 years. Using this experience, robust padding, and training, I will exercise dogs that need more than a walk to take them at their pace and level on trail runs on my roller skates. In my many years experience of doing this with several clients as well as rescue animals in my foster care, I have observed many benefits such as: ~improved obedience ~naturally filed nails ~increased happiness and smiles ~less scratching, digging, jumping, whining, barking, and other undesirable behavior ~better sleeping ~improved health and well being The majority of my time during the day is spent outdoors hiking, roller skating the bike paths, or in the garden, and I love to have the company of animals for all of it. At night, I cook, dance, and will read aloud to whoever is in the house. I find animals love this too. As a private chef, I have a lot of time outside of scheduled private events and parties. I can build catering quotes, shop online, and write menus from anywhere. This leaves plenty of time and attention for animals in my care. I like to be outdoors as much as possible and having a pet companion makes it all the more enjoyable for me. I live in a clean and cozy townhouse very near multiple parks and paths. I use harnesses and good judgment while on excursions. I am trained in pet care, proper hydration, nutrition, and herbalism for pets. I never raise my voice and use positive reinforcement and fun to enlist cooperation. Furthermore, animals that are food motivated or fun motivated LOVE me. I love to be outdoors and active but can also cuddle inside for the furry friends that prefer one or both. If your dog likes to run, good news! I like to go fast on the bike paths! Caring for your pet(s) is the highest honor and takes priority while in my care. Please let me know about special needs, but otherwise you can trust that my regular routine is to play, be outside, laugh, show kindness, and provide stellar caregiving.

“Cassidy was amazing. She was so accommodating, helped us with a last minute situation which we’re super thankful for. She was very communicative, punctual, flexible, and my boy absolutely loved her and her dog Rex. She’s a keeper! Thank you sooo much Cassidy!”
“Linnea was great with Okie. She was always on time and Okie loved her. She was flexible with scheduling when needed. Would highly recommend her and we would definitely use her services again.”
“I’d never used the app before but loved how easy it was for Sam to keep me updated both times he visited to walk our dog. Our dog is an old boy and can be a little defensive at times, and pretty slow-moving, but Sam was super patient with him. Sam walked him for a full 30 minutes and from what I can tell, he just let our dog take it slow, sniffing (and peeing on) all the things along the way, which is his absolute favorite thing to do. I’d recommend Sam for sure, and will ask him back if we ever need help with our pets again!”
About: I have had dogs growing up all of my life! I have a special place in my heart for dogs and I have volunteered with animal shelters and taken care of neighbors and families dogs.

About: I love animals, always have and always will! I have lots of knowledge when it comes to caring for dogs, and cats! I have experience with administering medication for cats and dogs. I am a teacher so my summer is complete open! Anytime you need or any day I can do it. My weekends are also free, so you tell me what you need, and I’ll make it work. I live in an apartment (with a cat) so boarding your fur baby will depend on how well your animals can tolerate cats. My cat is VERY friendly and loves company.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13, primarily caring for cats and dogs. My experience includes dog walking, feeding, playtime, administering basic routines, and cleaning litter boxes. I’ve especially worked with older cats and dogs, so I understand the extra patience, attentiveness, and gentle care they often need. I also have two cats of my own back home, giving me firsthand experience in daily responsibilities and expectations of being a pet owner. Because of this, I’m very mindful about my care towards your pet! I’m currently a second-year, first-generation student at CU Boulder, balancing school and a Work-Study position. I’m generally available Thursday through Monday after 1 PM and can be flexible with advance notice. When I house sit I treat every home with respect, focusing on your pet while you’re away. I understand leaving your home and furry friend to a stranger can be worrisome so I do my best to comfort your pet and keep your space the way you like it.
About: I have had family dogs and cats since I was young and love spending time with animals. I have experience with dog walking, dog sitting, cat sitting, and house sitting. I strive to take detailed care of each pet and follow their normal routine to keep them as happy and healthy as possible. I have a very open and flexible schedule, so I can spend all day with your pets to give them the attention and care that they deserve. I take care of pets in my client's home so that they can maintain the routine that they are comfortable with and feel safe and at home while the clients are away.

About: I love all animals like they’re my own! After volunteering for years with Guiding Eyes for the Blind in NY as a kennel assistant, puppy socializer, and dog groomer, I have found a passion for pet care! I have experience watching and caring for dogs, cats, birds, and small critters such as guinea pigs. I currently have my own beagle, but love to care for other pets too! I’m currently a graduate student with a part-time job. I have a pup of my own and love caring for other animals when given the chance! I’m excited to take care of pet’s in their own home by ensuring they are well fed and have enough water before leaving, keeping all doors and windows the same way I found them, and cleaning any messes made. For dog walking, I will keep the dog on a leash at all times and be able to keep up at any pace for the duration of the walk! Even running!
About: Hi there! All my life I have been an animal lover and for the last 8 years I have raised my own dog, and taken care of other dogs for families I used to babysit for. I can fit in any lifestyle your pet has, whether they are active or a stay-at-home. I can fit any accommodation as I work from home, love to exercise (so your dog would get plenty of it, if need be), and I'm incredibly flexible and will be normally free to help you more than not. At the same time, I raised my dog since she was a puppy so I do have experience with younger, more energetic dogs and overall I would simply love to help and treat your dogs like family. I hope we can talk soon! I'm super flexible and work from home at the moment so I basically can take care of your dogs whenever you may need it. I will certainly be more free for your dog rather than not! I will care for your pet in your home however you see fit. I do what is asked and can fit any accommodation whether your dog has a lot of needs, or simply needs a walk and some playtime. I'm happy to help however it may be!
About: I started dog sitting for my neighbors when I was 12. My family got 2 dogs when I entered high school and I was the main care giver. Now that I am living somewhere that does not allow dogs, I love the opportunity of getting to care for other dogs and treat them as my own family. I work from home 3 days a week (M, T, F) so your dogs will have full access to me those days! If your home has WiFi and your dogs need more consistent attention, I'm comfortable working from there as long as you are too. Overall, my job is pretty flexible and I am available for midday walks, etc. I treat all dogs as if they were my own. Having grown up with one dog who was NOT and one who WAS all cuddles 24/7, I totally understand when dogs need some time and space to get used to a new person. I will meet your dog wherever it is at with their personality and make sure we both feel safe in our environment and have a good time, whatever that means for your dog.
About: I was absolutely obsessed with my late bulldog and toy poodle. Raising them and spending time with them each day was so much fun and fulfilling. I have been dog sitting, cat sitting and house sitting since I was 12. All through high school and both of my college degrees I continued to dog sit. I'd feel lucky to be trusted to hang out with yours! I am extremely active and love when I can exercise with a pup. Hike? Neighborhood walk? Dog park? Sounds great! I work from home with great flexibility and have holidays off of work since I work in education. Let me know what type of schedule suits your fur baby best! I have a large backyard and a deck. Let me know how your dog best is accommodated. I've had dogs who needed to be in their crated in a new environment and others who wanted to sleep in my room or the couch. However is totally fine with me!
About: I’ve always had a love for animals, especially dogs. I am extremely detail-oriented and respectful of any of all requests! I’ve grown up being the “crazy dog friend” and have always been a go-to for any dog sitting! I spent this whole summer dog sitting my Uncle’s Labrador retriever puppy. Everyday I went over, took her for a walk, played a little and made sure she had water/was fed. While there I also taught her some tricks! During college I would also go to the humane society and walk the dogs every week and give them some love and attention. I’d love the opportunity to meet as many doggos as possible, what an awesome job!❤️ I also am a graphic designer, so I've been drawing pet portraits for the past few years after I found myself missing that connection during quarantine! Feel free to request one and you can check out my previous work on my instagram lilianacaceresdesigns or website lilianacaceres. com /work-1/petportraits I’m currently not working therefore have a lot of time on my hands to help other doggo parents out! I know how hard it can be to make sure your pet has the best and most loving care when you are unable to be there. I’m right in the heart of Boulder so I have easy access to the whole city! I am very detail-oriented, so when it comes to a pet that has specific needs I am very on top of it! I have dog sat for friends and family over the past few years and will respect any and all requests!

We felt so comfortable leaving the country knowing she was in such capable and caring hands. They have an incredibly large backyard so lots of room to run and play. We loved the photo updates and knowing how Bella was doing. I highly recommend them. She will be back with them again soon!”
“Madeline took wonderful care of George during our wedding weekend! We needed some extra help since George was a part of our big day. Maddy helped make sure that George was exercised, and then transferred to our wedding day handler. George had a great time, we had a bunch of pictures that made us feel good and everything was super smooth. Would 100% recommend!”
“Our pup was well taken care of. Highly recommend care providers. The next time we go out of town I hope Allison and John are available to take care of ginger again.”
“Sarah took wonderful care of our dog over the weekend! She took the time to meet with him and understand his medical needs, and he had a wonderful time at her house playing with her pup and her sweet girls :) We definitely hope to book with her again!”
“Georgia was so wonderful with our dogs. She took such great care understanding & accommodating their individual needs and behaviors. I would not hesitate in asking Georgia to watch Rosie & Daisy again. It’s nice being able to relax while away, knowing they’re in her care. The picture & video updates were great as well!”
“Ruby was with Sean and Kim for 16 days, which is the longest we have ever left her, and I can’t say enough good things about them. We got daily updates with photos. She went for walks every day and also got to hike her favorite trail with them numerous times. She loves her new doggy buddies, and based on the photos she clearly loves Sean. She came home healthy and tired, and we were able to enjoy our extended trip knowing that she was in such great hands. 10 out of 10 recommend.”
About: Dogs have been part of my life since I was a kid. I regularly watch my sister’s dog and two friends’ pups, so I’m very comfortable with various food routines, walks, and keeping dogs happy while their people are away. I work from home, so I have plenty of time and flexibility for pet care. I take my sweet pup on three walks a day - morning (20-45 min), afternoon (10-15 min), and evening (20-45) - and visiting dogs are welcome to join us. When the weather is nice, dogs can move freely between inside and outside in the large fenced yard (unless you prefer otherwise for your dog). I have a large fenced yard, plus a creek and open space just out my door for daily walks and longer adventures. Your dog will get plenty of walks, attention, and couch time. I love having dogs in my home and treat them like part of the family while they're here.
“Elise and Matthew took such great care of our dog while we were away. It’s so comforting to have kind, reliable, trustworthy people to rely on for our dog when we are gone. Thank you both!”
“Barbara was absolutely wonderful and took great care of Kona along with her husband and their dog, Mel! Barbara sent a batch of photos and a report of their activities each day and we knew that our chocolate lab was getting plenty of exercise and also made a new friend with Mel. Lots of ball and walk and swim and play. They live in a great spot in Boulder with quiet trails surrounding them. We knew that Kona was safe, loved and also entertained. Really a great experience. Thank you Barbara and Julian!”
“Joann did a great job watching my “senior” golden retriever for 4 nights. She sent photos and great feedback each day. I felt super comfortable with Joann and will definitely use her again!”
“Della was fantastic and we will definitely leave our dogs with her again. She was communicative, sent pictures, and thought carefully about our dogs needs!”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover who has been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs taught me how important it is to provide pets with patience, attention, exercise, and lots of love. For the past 6 years, I've volunteered with Fulton County Animal Services, where I've worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments. As a Level 3 volunteer, I have extensive experience handling, walking, socializing, and caring for shelter dogs, including those who may need extra patience and confidence-building. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take the time to learn their individual needs and routines. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with a companion, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and look forward to meeting your furry family member! I do work a part-time job, but I carefully manage my schedule to ensure every pet in my care receives plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I maintain a consistent routine and make your pet's comfort and well-being a top priority while they're staying with me. I'm always happy to discuss my schedule and your pet's specific needs to make sure we're a great fit. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they receive plenty of exercise, attention, playtime, and affection while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments through my 6 years of volunteering at Fulton County Animal Services as a Level 3 volunteer. This experience has taught me how to read canine body language, build trust with nervous dogs, and safely handle a variety of personalities and energy levels. I pay close attention to each pet's needs, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise requirements, and any special instructions from their owners. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment so both pets and their owners can feel confident and at ease.
“Sophia took excellent care of my dog. Perhaps the best sign is when I picked her up, she went back in the house and tried to stay with Sophia instead of come home with me. She even gave Stella a bath before pick up without my asking.”
About: I’m a very responsible dog and cat lover! I adore doing on daily walks & hikes with dogs ❤️ let me support your family by spending time with your dog. I love my job. I am a relationship coach! So I work remotely and from home. I don’t have my own animals right now so I love watching friends so I get outside and moving with their dogs. I have a big house with a big fenced in yard. I can also go to your home if that feels better depending on the animal.
