“Mark went above and beyond for our pups when we were out of town. Our dogs are a little quirky in new places so Mark was happy to accommodate by coming to our house to care for them. We got pictures and updates each time he went over to look after our pups. He had great energy and truly enjoyed spending time with them. They were tired and happy when we got back. Already looking forward to booking with Mark again! You won’t be disappointed when having Mark care for your beloved pets!!”
“Virginia had been one of the best dog sitters we’ve had. She came through in a pinch when we had a last minute cancellation from the person who was going to watch our senior dog. Virginia sent updates and made sure our little gal was well taken care of. She’s got a great setup for dogs with plenty of indoor and outdoor space. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Jenny has been an amazing dogsitter for us. We have started using her every time we go out of town. Our 3 dogs have very different personalities. One is old, one is a very large puppy, and the third doesn't love to play with other dogs. Despite their differences, she has been able to manage them seemlessly. She is caring and truly loves our dogs. She sent lots of pictures so we could se how cuddled and happy they were. I would highly recommend Jenny's services.”
“Darek was fantastic with my pup! She was a happy girl when I picked her up. On top of that, my trip ended up getting extended two extra days and Darek was so helpful and communicative during the whole process, it took a huge weight off of my shoulders as a pet parent! Definitely recommend him as a sitter and will be using him again!!”
About: I have taken care of a variety of animals, starting from a young age. My parents had a little farm and a love for Boxers, a very high energy breed. I have a preference for Great-Danes and other gentle giants, but I love all dogs! Our 1.5 acre backyard is fenced and ready for your pet to play, potty, and chill with our 8 year-old graying pup, Olympus. I walk my pet one mile everyday and often run another mile on my own since my dog is elderly and cannot run with me. Meals are twice, sometimes three times a day. I clean the floors, rugs, and all doggie blankets once a week to maintain a hygienic environment. I work from home so I am always around. I have a flexible schedule that can fit your pups needs. I can manage high-energy pups and dogs with separation anxiety. I have an insurance plan through Pet Care Insurance.
“Kenzie was kind, communicative, and accommodating of a last minute shift. She sent photo updates and it looks like my pup had a great time with plenty of space to explore with her new friends.”
“We left our Brittany Spaniel, Rudy with Lori for 16 days - longer than we would like to be away from our baby, and although we missed him, we were never worried about him. Lori is great at communicating promptly and sending pictures. Her house is in a quiet forest setting, which worked well for our dog who likes peace and quiet. Highly recommend.”
About: I have been working with animals since I was a child! I grew up on a farm with horses and our trusty yellow Labradors, learning from an early age the true meaning of taking care of others. I love providing dogs the happiest experience - I find such joy when playing, running, skiing, or hiking with dogs and seeing the BIG smile on their faces! Any pups that stay with me, my husband, and our goofy dog, Miles, will have a fantastic time, as well as guaranteed adventure (as appropriate!). When your pup stays with us, he/she will never be left alone and will be treated as one of our own. Having fur-babies of our own, I understand the importance of knowing that your pup is well taken care of according to his/her needs. We hope to see you soon! I work full-time from home with a flexible schedule. Considering this, your pup will never be left alone and enjoy our company (and snuggles) 24/7. I have a flexible schedule and will update my calendar weekly as needed regarding my availability. Our home is located in Rafter J on three acres, ~10 minutes from downtown Durango. We have one dog named Miles, a seven-year-old Weimaraner who has a goober personality and LOVES to play with other dogs.
“Savannah was wonderful with Alice during her four-night stay! She communicated consistently, sent updates, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Most importantly, Alice absolutely loved her and came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with Savannah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter for their dog.”
“We loved William and Amanda. They sent lots of photos and they have a great space for pups to be inside and outside. Lizzie had a fun stay and was well cared for. We will use them again when we come back to Durango.”
“We knew that Jackson took great care of our dog just by the way she interacted with him when we picked her up (obviously gave her lots of loving attention). He kept us informed on how she was doing, kept her busy with walks and socializing with other dogs. Jackson is now our Rover go to!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for family and friends for 2 years. I care deeply about quality pet care. I live an active lifestyle and make sure dogs are exercised and entertain! I treat each pet as my own I’m a part time student with lots of free time to dedicate to pets. Mornings, afternoon and nights I have availability. I’m open to all types of breeds. Dogs will have a safe environment to explore in my home. I treat clients homes with respect, just as I would want someone coming into my home.
“Thanks Tarah for Ranger’s visit. Sounds like he had a wonderful adventure filled visit. He was definitely tired but happy when we picked him up. We would love to have you watch him again!”
“I was thoroughly impressed with Sandra! She was very kind and responsive and took great care of my Oakley. She sent me pictures and updates throughout the day. Would definitely use again.”
“Was able to vacation worry-free. Puppy was happy healthy and well taken care of. Michaela is great with animals and I hope she will be watching my dog during any future trips. Have no reservations about leaving your dog with her.”

About: Hello fellow dog lovers! With over 20 years of experience owning and caring for dogs, I understand the deep bond between humans and their furry companions. Although I cannot host pets in my rental, I’d love to take your dog for a walk or house sit where they feel most comfortable- your home! I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to provide care both during and outside of regular business hours. Whether it’s a midday walk, evening playtime or weekend adventure, I’m here to ensure your dog receives the attention, love and exercise they deserve. If you book me for pet sitting in your home, you can feel at ease knowing that I will respect your space and make it a goal of mine to leave your space as clean as you left it. Let’s connect and discuss how I can offer your dog the right care and attention to make you feel comfortable when you can’t be with them. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! I work from home and have a fairly flexible schedule! I can provide pet services within or outside of regular business hours- let’s discuss your pets needs and I can likely fit them in to my schedule, no problem! I love clients who offer detailed lists of their pets needs and daily routines! I used to do the same with my dog and know that following something like this gives everyone involved (dogs included!) ease of mind.
About: I’ve worked at a couple of veterinary clinics as a receptionist and also helped with kennel care, which gave me valuable experience handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m comfortable reading dog behavior, keeping them calm in new environments, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I understand how important it is to follow routines, give attention to detail, and treat every pet with patience and love. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I’ll make sure your dog feels right at home. I’m currently balancing a part-time job and my own business, so my schedule can vary week to week. I’ll always be clear about my availability in advance and do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. Reliability and communication are really important to me, and I make sure each pet I care for gets the time and attention they deserve. I provide care in your home so your pet can stay in a familiar, comfortable environment. I always follow your instructions closely — from feeding schedules and walks to any routines or quirks that help your pet feel secure. I take extra care to keep doors and gates locked, make sure water bowls stay full, and give plenty of love and attention while you’re away. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, relaxed, and cared for until you’re back home.
About: I've been caring for animals as long as I can remember, from chickens to horses, to, of course, dogs! I grew up living near a lot of farmland, so I always had special respect for animals. Being away from home for my education, I miss my parents' dogs and cats a lot. I've spent a lot of time in Durango volunteering to take my friends' dogs to the dog park, on walks, etc. I'm excited to meet you and your pup! Over the summer, I'm working a part-time job that gives me a lot of free time! More likely than not, I'll have time to take care of your pets. I spend a lot of time pet sitting for friends, so I already spend a lot of time at the dog park and going for walks! The most important aspect of pet care for me is communication with owners. I like to have a good idea of what is best for your pet before I care for them, to make sure that the experience is best for everyone.
About: I’ve had animals my whole life. I have always loved animals and my freinds, neighbors, and family always ask me to care for their furry loved ones! I’m currently working only a couple shifts a month at my other job, so I can be reliable and flexible with many different schedules to fit your needs! In my clients home I will be sure the pets have the food/water their owners desire, and I would love to play and run the energy out of your pets during the day while your at work!
“Patty was great:) One of my cats needs an inhaler and one can be kind of aggressive, but when she sat them for a week, she figured out Mazzy’s inhaler and was patient with LeeLoo. I’ll reach out to her again in the future:)”
“I would definitely recommend Brigid for your pet care and house sitting! She took fantastic care of our animals and kept our home in great shape. We especially appreciated her consistent communication and the frequent updates she sent while we were away. It gave us total peace of mind!”
About: Have taken care of dogs and cats my whole life! Never had a year without living with dogs, cats, and the many other lovely creatures I have as pets. I’m all about getting outside with animals and having fun! I’m currently a F+B manager working nights and have Sunday and Mondays off. Every morning, 6am -12pm, open for any adventure and/or pet care. Love taking care of senior dogs and running with high energy pups. I have no fence around my yard and keep all dogs on a leash or tether when outside and always accompanied when outside. I live right on the Animas River and love to walk my pets down. I have a 3 year old female dog Daisy and a 1 year old black male cat named Felix. Both are friendly and love making new friends! Will always take care of a clients pet and home like it’s my own.
About: I have my own well behaved 2 year old medium sized dog. In health care and very knowledgeable. Love and care for all animals small or big. Available mainly on Saturday through Monday. But flexible with my current job if needed. Happy to work around my work schedule but free through the weekend and Mondays. I will care and take care of your pet as I would my own. But also take into consideration any of your pets needs and wants.
About: I have been caring for animals my entire life. I was born and raised in the country surrounded by cats, dogs, the list goes on and on. I started pet and house sitting as a teenager and have continued since then. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love spending time with them. As as homeschooling single mom of two animal-loving kids, your pet won't be left alone all day. I spend a lot of time at home, and my children are kind, gentle, and very experienced around animals. They love helping with walks, playtime, and cuddles (with your permission, of course!). I offer plenty of attention, affection, and companionship, and I will treat your babies like part of our family. My summer schedule is wide open to help with walks, playtime, cuddles, and outdoor adventures. If you're looking for a sitter where your pet will be treated like part of the fam, I would love to help. I know how important is is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. When caring for pets in your home, I am very intentional and aware of their normal routines and rituals, give them lots of attention and affection, and bring a grounded, present, calm companionship with me. I carefully follow all instructions given regarding feeding, walks, medications, crating, household preferences, etc. My children and I very respectful of both of your pets and your home, and I am very responsive with my communications with regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are being well cared for and loved!
About: I grew up with cats (5 to be exact). I have always had a cat in the house hold. Right now, I don't have a cat and I miss them! I'd love to hang with your kitty. I'm patient and loving with cats. I'll give them all the snuggles they ever want.
“Andrew is fantastic with our shy cats and super reliable. He has great communication and sends us lots of cute photos of our girls! We'll definitely have Andrew watch our kitties again!”
About: I have had pets of all kinds since I was born. I currently have three puppies of my own that I am raising. I've had fish, cats, snakes, turtles, and more. I especially love dogs. I also have experience caring for disabled dogs and pets who have special needs. My three puppies come out to a combined weight of 240lbs! They are very high energy and I can walk them (yes all at the same time), however, I prefer bringing them to the dog park! If you would like me to take your dog to the dog park, that can be arranged! Otherwise I can run/walk your dog in your neighborhood or in another place of your preference. Feel free to ask! I have another part time job working from home, which takes up my mornings, but the afternoon is play time! I love going to the dog park with my dogs! I've probably met you there! If not there, we may go to the lake, hike, or for a stroll around the neighborhood. I have a good amount of free time that can be dedicated to caring for your lovely animals. I will follow all instructions as they are special for each pet and their own personal needs. I understand some pets may need medication or are disabled and need help with basic functions. I can run with dogs if need be, or I can walk at a slow pace with elderly dogs. Just let me know how they like to walk. May your pets guide me.

“Kristina has been a godsend for my puppy and I. She and her husband have helped to train my puppy, socialize, and exercise her. She comes back happy and exhausted every time. Not only is my puppy cared for, but Kristina is reasonably priced, able to accommodate my wacky schedule, and conveniently located. I'm not someone who typically leaves reviews and I couldn't recommend these guys enough.”
“Ansley is the sweetest and best! She send me several photos throughout the day and I could tell Simba was having a blast and made new friends. I would definitely recommend and will use Ansley’s care again in the future. :)”
“Mark was great. He made sure that our dog was well taken care off. Mark provides great service, as it was easy to communicate with him, and he provided pictures of our dog during her stay.”
“We were nervous to find someone to watch our dog to go hiking, as he has never been left anywhere before. However I was so relieved to find Kenzie! She was flexible with working with us, communicative, sent photo updates the whole time we were gone, and provided Archie with a comfortable and friendly place to stay! If we were ever in the area again and in need of someone to help with Archie, Kenzie would be the first person we would ask!”
“We feel so fortunate to have access to a trusted person like Suede to watch our dog when we are on vacation and there are activities where dogs are not allowed like the National Parks.”
“Kaitlynn and her family were the best people to leave our boy with for the day while we spent time in Mesa Verde. He was loved and cared for with plenty of space to sniff and play as well. Highly recommend!”
“We were so happy to have found Jenny. My dog Freya and her pup Luna had a blast playing, napping and hanging out at Jenny's place. Jenny was responsive, communicative, and accommodating. Freya can't wait for her next doggie daycare or overnight! We highly recommend Jenny (and Luna) :-)”
“We dropped our fur baby off while we went to the Durango train for the day! The whole family was welcoming and we felt so comfortable leaving Kobe with them. Gave us several updates and I know our dog had fun playing with theirs! Thank you for an amazing first-timer Rover experience!”

“Ayden was great! She was very flexible and handled my dog well. When he had a small injury, she let me know right away. She also was able to give him injection medication. When my dog stopped cooperating, she let me know and we figured out how best to handle the situation from there, without danger to her or my dog.”

“Mark went above and beyond for our pups when we were out of town. Our dogs are a little quirky in new places so Mark was happy to accommodate by coming to our house to care for them. We got pictures and updates each time he went over to look after our pups. He had great energy and truly enjoyed spending time with them. They were tired and happy when we got back. Already looking forward to booking with Mark again! You won’t be disappointed when having Mark care for your beloved pets!!”
“Virginia had been one of the best dog sitters we’ve had. She came through in a pinch when we had a last minute cancellation from the person who was going to watch our senior dog. Virginia sent updates and made sure our little gal was well taken care of. She’s got a great setup for dogs with plenty of indoor and outdoor space. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Jenny has been an amazing dogsitter for us. We have started using her every time we go out of town. Our 3 dogs have very different personalities. One is old, one is a very large puppy, and the third doesn't love to play with other dogs. Despite their differences, she has been able to manage them seemlessly. She is caring and truly loves our dogs. She sent lots of pictures so we could se how cuddled and happy they were. I would highly recommend Jenny's services.”
“Darek was fantastic with my pup! She was a happy girl when I picked her up. On top of that, my trip ended up getting extended two extra days and Darek was so helpful and communicative during the whole process, it took a huge weight off of my shoulders as a pet parent! Definitely recommend him as a sitter and will be using him again!!”
About: I have taken care of a variety of animals, starting from a young age. My parents had a little farm and a love for Boxers, a very high energy breed. I have a preference for Great-Danes and other gentle giants, but I love all dogs! Our 1.5 acre backyard is fenced and ready for your pet to play, potty, and chill with our 8 year-old graying pup, Olympus. I walk my pet one mile everyday and often run another mile on my own since my dog is elderly and cannot run with me. Meals are twice, sometimes three times a day. I clean the floors, rugs, and all doggie blankets once a week to maintain a hygienic environment. I work from home so I am always around. I have a flexible schedule that can fit your pups needs. I can manage high-energy pups and dogs with separation anxiety. I have an insurance plan through Pet Care Insurance.
“Kenzie was kind, communicative, and accommodating of a last minute shift. She sent photo updates and it looks like my pup had a great time with plenty of space to explore with her new friends.”
“We left our Brittany Spaniel, Rudy with Lori for 16 days - longer than we would like to be away from our baby, and although we missed him, we were never worried about him. Lori is great at communicating promptly and sending pictures. Her house is in a quiet forest setting, which worked well for our dog who likes peace and quiet. Highly recommend.”
About: I have been working with animals since I was a child! I grew up on a farm with horses and our trusty yellow Labradors, learning from an early age the true meaning of taking care of others. I love providing dogs the happiest experience - I find such joy when playing, running, skiing, or hiking with dogs and seeing the BIG smile on their faces! Any pups that stay with me, my husband, and our goofy dog, Miles, will have a fantastic time, as well as guaranteed adventure (as appropriate!). When your pup stays with us, he/she will never be left alone and will be treated as one of our own. Having fur-babies of our own, I understand the importance of knowing that your pup is well taken care of according to his/her needs. We hope to see you soon! I work full-time from home with a flexible schedule. Considering this, your pup will never be left alone and enjoy our company (and snuggles) 24/7. I have a flexible schedule and will update my calendar weekly as needed regarding my availability. Our home is located in Rafter J on three acres, ~10 minutes from downtown Durango. We have one dog named Miles, a seven-year-old Weimaraner who has a goober personality and LOVES to play with other dogs.
“Savannah was wonderful with Alice during her four-night stay! She communicated consistently, sent updates, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Most importantly, Alice absolutely loved her and came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with Savannah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter for their dog.”
“We loved William and Amanda. They sent lots of photos and they have a great space for pups to be inside and outside. Lizzie had a fun stay and was well cared for. We will use them again when we come back to Durango.”
“We knew that Jackson took great care of our dog just by the way she interacted with him when we picked her up (obviously gave her lots of loving attention). He kept us informed on how she was doing, kept her busy with walks and socializing with other dogs. Jackson is now our Rover go to!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for family and friends for 2 years. I care deeply about quality pet care. I live an active lifestyle and make sure dogs are exercised and entertain! I treat each pet as my own I’m a part time student with lots of free time to dedicate to pets. Mornings, afternoon and nights I have availability. I’m open to all types of breeds. Dogs will have a safe environment to explore in my home. I treat clients homes with respect, just as I would want someone coming into my home.
“Thanks Tarah for Ranger’s visit. Sounds like he had a wonderful adventure filled visit. He was definitely tired but happy when we picked him up. We would love to have you watch him again!”
“I was thoroughly impressed with Sandra! She was very kind and responsive and took great care of my Oakley. She sent me pictures and updates throughout the day. Would definitely use again.”
“Was able to vacation worry-free. Puppy was happy healthy and well taken care of. Michaela is great with animals and I hope she will be watching my dog during any future trips. Have no reservations about leaving your dog with her.”
