About: I've been caring for dogs my entire life and bring a calm, attentive and intuitive approach to every dog i welcome into my home. I grew up caring for dogs and have owned both Golden Retrievers and a long-haired Dachshund, giving experience with a wide range of temperaments-from energetic and playful to gentle and sensitive. I provide a structured, safe and loving environment where dogs can feel at ease while maintaining their normal routines. I'm highly attentive to each dogs individual needs, whether it's exercise, companionship or simply a calm space to relax. Having hosted many dogs in my home and being a former dog owner looking for care over the years, I understand how important it is for both pets and owners to feel confident and comfortable. My 9-year-old son Bobby is kind, respectful and experienced with dogs adding to the warm, family style environment your dog will be a part of. Nestled in Red Cliff, our home offers a true mountain escape- endless fresh air, trails, a dogs dream playground I currently have full availability, I'm home throughout the day to provide loving, attentive care, regular walks, playtime and calm, consistent routine for every dog. Our home features a partially fenced yard, a peaceful low flow creek on the property and easy access to Red Cliffs dog friendly trails for leashed or unleashed adventures in the backcountry.
“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!”
“Absolutely amazing! Cori was so welcoming and kind to my dogs. It was my first time using Rover and Cori was beyond helpful. I dropped my dogs off with her to undergo a surgery in Denver and Cori was absolutely fantastic with communication and posted updates on how much fun the dogs were having. It was really a huge stress taken off my shoulder. Her place seemed perfect for active dogs like mine with a good trail very close by.”
“Jamie was so great! My petsitter unfortunately had to cancel right before I left town for a busy holiday weekend. Jamie gladly took Declan last minute, was super flexible and even made the time to pick him up and drop him off. Would 100% use her again!”
“Jenna took such good care of my dog, taking him on a great hike for the day I needed her to watch him (even with a short notice of needing her sitting help) Very happy and would recommend!”
“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!!”
“Winsome took great care of our dog! This was only the 2nd time we have left him and she made us feel good about leaving him. We received photos and updates throughout the weekend so we knew he was having fun! Thanks Winsome!”
“Karen was an absolute lifesaver for us! We had friends visiting with their kids, and managing two dogs on top of everything would have been a lot, so having Bondi stay with her for a few days made all the difference. Karen kept us completely at ease by posting frequent updates and sharing lots of photos. From every picture, it was clear that Bondi was having the best time and getting so much love and attention. It really meant a lot to see how happy and comfortable he was while we were away. We’re so grateful for the care she gave Bondi and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring to look after their pup!”
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!
About: My family has always had a dog and I have also petsat dogs of all sizes and ages for 10+ years. I am an avid runner and have taken many of the dogs I petsit for runs with me. I currently work two to three days per week as a nurse, which gives me plenty of opportunity and flexibility to take care of your pets! I am able to care for your pets both in your home and mine. I am more than happy to spend the night at your house to care for the dog if that is easier on the dog for routine and comfort. I will adhere to your house rules in terms of furniture and ensure that the house is in the same condition as you left it.
“Joelle was absolutely amazing with my reactive 8-year old! It’s always a little scary leaving your baby with someone new but Joelle had me at ease from the very first meet and greet. She was great about keeping me updated and sent me lots of photos from her walks. She was also super flexible and accommodating when I had to change pickup plans on the fly. I would have her watch Luna again in a heartbeat.”

“Jeremy has watched my cat a few times now, he is very professional and kind. Additionally, Jeremy goes out of his way to try to play and interact with my cat when he visits which I appreciate a lot! My cat is usually pretty shy and standoffish, but he has gotten to know and trust Jeremy and is friendly during visits. I'm very thankful for this because extended periods without me around can make him very stressed and have lasting impacts on his health. Would absolutely recommend Jeremy as a reliable pet sitter!”
“Savannah is fantastic! We have a big 90 lb German Shephard, and he isn't the best with meeting new people. He really just picks up your energy and will like you or not based on who you are. Within 2 minutes, Atticus was leaning up against Savannah and having her pet, hug, and play with him. He really looks forward to her visits. Savannah is also great for the humans too. She communicates clearly and promptly. She has been and continues to save my butt visiting Atticus and feeding lunches while I'm at work during the week. I love getting the photo updates and knowing that Atticus is loved and taken care of. I fully recommend Savannah for any pet sitting you need. Thank you Savannah!”
About: I have done tons of cat sitting since I was a teenager. The most rewarding experience I had was watching 2 elderly cats for a period of 6 months.

About: I have over 6 years of experience caring for cats of all ages, from playful kittens to senior cats.

“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!”
“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.”
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 provide thoughtful, intuitive care for dogs of all personalities—whether they need outdoor adventure, calm companionship, or a little extra patience and understanding. Hi, I’m Cori — a professional, intuitive pet sitter recently relocated to Colorado from Chicago. In Chicago, I spent years deeply involved in dog rescue, rehabilitation, and fostering, along with providing boarding, daycare, house sitting, and in-home care. This hands-on experience gave me a strong foundation working with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and special needs—including anxious, reactive, and recovering pups who require extra patience and understanding. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely connect with. I have a natural ability to read behavior, build trust, and help pets feel safe and at ease in any environment. I offer a full range of services including dog walking, drop-in visits, daycare, boarding, and house sitting. Each visit is tailored to your pet’s unique needs and may include feeding, structured walks, playtime, enrichment, medication (if needed), and plenty of attention and care. Whether your dog prefers slow mornings and quiet companionship or thrives on outdoor adventures and long mountain walks, I meet them exactly where they are. Living in Colorado, I love providing active dogs with enriching exercise, while also maintaining a calm, grounded presence for those who need a gentler pace. As an added bonus, I also have extensive experience caring for small animals, including birds, guinea pigs, hamsters, and fish. I also hold a degree in horticulture, so I’m more than happy to care for houseplants while you’re away—keeping everything in your home healthy and thriving. Pet care is currently my full-time focus, which means I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate consistent, quality time and attention to each pet I care for. I’m reliable, communicative, and respectful of your routines, and I always provide regular updates with photos so you feel connected and at ease while you’re away.

Because pet care is my full-time focus, your pets get dedicated attention, consistent care, and plenty of love every day. Regular updates and photos are included so you feel connected while you’re away.

Dogs are welcome on the sofa if that’s something you allow, and I always create a calm, respectful environment tailored to their needs and personality. Daily care includes multiple walks, enrichment, and plenty of attention. For more active dogs, I’m happy to incorporate longer walks or hikes in the surrounding area. For lower-energy or senior dogs, I provide a slower, more relaxed pace with lots of comfort and companionship. I use positive reinforcement techniques to support good behavior and build trust, as I’ve found this to be the most effective and compassionate approach—especially for dogs adjusting to a new environment. Above all, I work closely with you to follow your dog’s usual schedule and preferences, ensuring a happy, balanced, and personalized experience for everyone involved.

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.

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.

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat every animal like family. I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. Whether that means sticking to their specific feeding schedule, giving them space to relax, or offering lots of playtime and snuggles. I maintain a calm, clean environment, pay close attention to behavior or mood changes, and communicate regularly with pet parents to ensure peace of mind. I’m happy to accommodate special needs, medications, or quirks. Whatever helps your pet feel happiest and most at home.
About: My family are big pet lovers, we have a dog and two cats and we love them all so much! Because of my experience and love for animals, I have been trusted to take care of other friends and family members pets as well! I'm currently working from home with a very flexible schedule so I have a lot of time to give your furry friend all the attention and love they need and deserve! I live in a house with a large fenced in yard and a decently large neighborhood, so it allows me to go on walks and let your dog out to play in yard whenever its needed!

“Repeat customer! We love Joan...she pays such excellent attention to Sawyer and gives him care that goes above and beyond what you would ever expect!

You can tell that Joan loves what she does - an excellent communicator...sends updates, photos and videos daily. We cannot thank her enough for the great care of Sawyer during his stays - she is the best!”
About: I've been caring for dogs my entire life and bring a calm, attentive and intuitive approach to every dog i welcome into my home. I grew up caring for dogs and have owned both Golden Retrievers and a long-haired Dachshund, giving experience with a wide range of temperaments-from energetic and playful to gentle and sensitive. I provide a structured, safe and loving environment where dogs can feel at ease while maintaining their normal routines. I'm highly attentive to each dogs individual needs, whether it's exercise, companionship or simply a calm space to relax. Having hosted many dogs in my home and being a former dog owner looking for care over the years, I understand how important it is for both pets and owners to feel confident and comfortable. My 9-year-old son Bobby is kind, respectful and experienced with dogs adding to the warm, family style environment your dog will be a part of. Nestled in Red Cliff, our home offers a true mountain escape- endless fresh air, trails, a dogs dream playground I currently have full availability, I'm home throughout the day to provide loving, attentive care, regular walks, playtime and calm, consistent routine for every dog. Our home features a partially fenced yard, a peaceful low flow creek on the property and easy access to Red Cliffs dog friendly trails for leashed or unleashed adventures in the backcountry.
“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!”
“Absolutely amazing! Cori was so welcoming and kind to my dogs. It was my first time using Rover and Cori was beyond helpful. I dropped my dogs off with her to undergo a surgery in Denver and Cori was absolutely fantastic with communication and posted updates on how much fun the dogs were having. It was really a huge stress taken off my shoulder. Her place seemed perfect for active dogs like mine with a good trail very close by.”
“Jamie was so great! My petsitter unfortunately had to cancel right before I left town for a busy holiday weekend. Jamie gladly took Declan last minute, was super flexible and even made the time to pick him up and drop him off. Would 100% use her again!”
“Jenna took such good care of my dog, taking him on a great hike for the day I needed her to watch him (even with a short notice of needing her sitting help) Very happy and would recommend!”
“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!!”
“Winsome took great care of our dog! This was only the 2nd time we have left him and she made us feel good about leaving him. We received photos and updates throughout the weekend so we knew he was having fun! Thanks Winsome!”
“Karen was an absolute lifesaver for us! We had friends visiting with their kids, and managing two dogs on top of everything would have been a lot, so having Bondi stay with her for a few days made all the difference. Karen kept us completely at ease by posting frequent updates and sharing lots of photos. From every picture, it was clear that Bondi was having the best time and getting so much love and attention. It really meant a lot to see how happy and comfortable he was while we were away. We’re so grateful for the care she gave Bondi and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring to look after their pup!”
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!
About: My family has always had a dog and I have also petsat dogs of all sizes and ages for 10+ years. I am an avid runner and have taken many of the dogs I petsit for runs with me. I currently work two to three days per week as a nurse, which gives me plenty of opportunity and flexibility to take care of your pets! I am able to care for your pets both in your home and mine. I am more than happy to spend the night at your house to care for the dog if that is easier on the dog for routine and comfort. I will adhere to your house rules in terms of furniture and ensure that the house is in the same condition as you left it.
“Joelle was absolutely amazing with my reactive 8-year old! It’s always a little scary leaving your baby with someone new but Joelle had me at ease from the very first meet and greet. She was great about keeping me updated and sent me lots of photos from her walks. She was also super flexible and accommodating when I had to change pickup plans on the fly. I would have her watch Luna again in a heartbeat.”
“John is an excellent dog sitter. Super communicative and he was so kind and caring with my dog. He was very diligent about getting my dog out for his walks and sent tons of pictures as well. Highly recommend and I will definitely be using John as a sitter again in the future.”
