“Liah was attentive and kept us apprised of Trudy's visit throughout the days! Between walks and cuddles she was the perfect landing spot for our Xmas week in Steamboat. Highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was little, mostly house sitting and through my parents and sister's many different pets. I love training, walking, and cuddling with these empathetic creatures. I also have some experience in helping out at a dog boarding and day care facility in Steamboat Springs. I graduated December 2021 with my Outdoor Education AA and my Sustainability Studies BA from Colorado Mountain College. I then had the privilege to travel internationally and more locally for a year afterwards but the yampa valley curse sucked me back in! I now live in Steamboat full time. Last year I was unfortunately laid off from my position as Conservation Corps Program Manager at Rocky Mountain Youth Corps due to federal funding cuts. BUT lucky for you and your pets that does mean that I have more availability for walks and sitting! I am also working at Mary’s Mountain Cookies downtown. I can provide any environment that best suits your dog. I want them to feel safe and to stick with their routine while you are away. I prefer house sitting rather than drop ins with dogs that are not used to their owners being away for long periods of time. I will do my best to provide stability, basic needs, and of course lots of love, attention and cuddles! Aside from the occasional travels, outdoor adventures, and family visits, I am working almost full time at Mary’s Mountain Cookies downtown. I do have a lot of flexibility in my schedule and can check on pups during my breaks etc. I want your dog to be the most comfortable they can be while you are gone. I will try to stick to their normal routine and training as closely as possible and provide them lots of love and play time!
About: Hi, I'm Susan! Animals have a way of making every day better, and I love returning the favor by giving them a safe, calm, and caring experience while their humans are away. I've been in Steamboat for over five years and have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and reliable care. Whether your cat is playful and curious, loves chasing toys, or prefers a cozy nap in their favorite sunny spot, I'm happy to match their personality and routine. I understand that every cat is unique, and I take the time to earn their trust while making sure they feel comfortable and secure in their own home. I love taking pictures, so you'll receive plenty of photo updates to see exactly what your cat is up to while you're away! You can count on me to be: • Reliable and communicative • Patient with shy, senior, or independent cats • Respectful of your cat's routines and boundaries • Attentive to medications, feeding schedules, litter box care, and fresh water • Gentle, calm, and focused on making your cat feel safe and comfortable My goal is simple: I want your cat to feel relaxed and cared for while you're away, and I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing they're in loving hands. I can't wait to meet you and your feline family! Your pet's routine is my priority. I'll follow their usual schedule for meals, walks, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, medications, and downtime, helping them stay happy and comfortable while you're away. I'll make every day feel as normal and consistent as possible. I care for every pet as if they were my own, while respecting the routines and preferences you've established. Before we begin, I like to learn about your pet's personality, daily schedule, favorite activities, feeding routine, medications, and anything else that helps them feel comfortable. During each visit, I'll make sure your pet has everything they need, including fresh water, meals on schedule, exercise or playtime, potty breaks (for dogs), litter box cleaning (for cats), and plenty of attention and affection. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play or prefers a calm companion, I'll tailor my care to what makes them happiest. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect I'd want someone to show mine. I'll keep everything clean and tidy, follow any instructions you've provided, and make sure your pet feels safe and secure in their familiar environment. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages after each visit, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, well cared for, and in good hands.
“Cristina was awesome. Daisy had such a great time there and was always surrounded by a few dogs at least. So much running room and so much to do for her in the yard. I'll definitely have Daisy back there next time I leave town.”
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets for years. My own dog Koi, a 5-year-old mixed breed, lives with us full-time and is great with other dogs, so your pup will have a built-in playmate. Koi and I go on daily walks together, rain or shine, so your dog will always get plenty of exercise and attention. I work from home, so there's almost always someone around to give your pup attention, bathroom breaks, and playtime throughout the day. Daily walks are already part of my routine with my dog Koi, so your pet will easily join in on that consistent schedule. I don't have a fenced yard, but have plenty of grass space right at home plus a park just a short walk away for extra playtime and exercise. My 5 yr old mixed breed dog, Koi, is friendly and great with other dogs and will keep your fur baby company. Koi lives in our house full-time, so guest dogs join an already calm, settled home environment. Since I work from home, your dog won't be left alone for long stretches. Weekends are quite active in our house, often including 8+ mile hikes or long lake days, so your pup will get plenty of outdoor adventure.
“Just Perfect! Hadley was SO caring and thoughtful when watching our dog Abby. Hadley sent daily updates and pictures so we knew Abby was having a good time and it gave us confidence that she was in good hands while we were away. When we picked Abby up and took her home she was calm and settled in right away which shows how content she was. We had been worried about leaving Abby as she didn’t do well when we left her at a different boarder, but those fears are long gone now. We definitely will be using Hadley in the future!”
About: I love dogs and have had many of them, so I am excited to watch your dog! My entire family love to meet new dogs and make friends I work from home, and my son loves spending time with dogs when he is home in the evenings and weekends. I walk in the morning, afternoon, and evening, and feed on schedule. I take dogs out on leash and keep them in a secure, climate-controlled room when we must leave the house. I walk dogs at least 15 minutes every 4 hours.
“Elisabeth is phenomenal! She watched our pups for 5 days and provided them with the best care. She was very aware of each dog’s needs/rules and was so attentive. We also had some logistical complexity during our time in Steamboat, and she was so easy to work with, super communicative, and very helpful!”
“We were so lucky to find Suzanne and her family to watch our beloved dog Josie while we skiing at Steamboat! From the moment we met them, we knew Josie would be in great hands. They were incredibly welcoming and clearly experienced with dogs and have formal training experience. Throughout our trip, they sent us regular updates and photos, which put our minds at ease. It was obvious that Josie was having a blast! When we picked her up, she was happy and relaxed. We're so grateful to Suzanne and her family for taking such wonderful care of our furry family member. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
About: I grew up on a farm and have taken care of all kinds of animals my entire life. I love animals, and will treat your pets with the same love and care as I do for my own (1 cat one dog, both good with other animals). I have raised multiple cats and dogs throughout my life. I am working full time during the week, 8-4 Monday-Friday. I work as a life enrichment coordinator at Casey's pond, where I actually bring my dog (and sometimes my cat!) to work and they get to spend time with residents. This job allows me a lot of flexibility, and I am able to come home every 2 hours. I am free every weekend, and overnight care is also possible with my schedule. I have a fenced in yard and an guest bedroom which your pet could stay in, we are also able to fit a crate in here. My pets are allowed on all the furniture. I have a well behaved 1.5 year old dog who would love nothing more than to show your dog (or cat) around our house, and a 13 year old cat who is absolutely oblivious to any other animals and just does her own thing. I love spending time outside and will play with / walk your dogs if desired!
About: I am an animal lover and will do anything in my power to ensure your furbaby is well-cared for and communication is clear and exceeds your expectations so you can ease your worries and take care of business or enjoy your vacation. I am available for drop in visits morning, throughout the day and at the end of the day. If your pet needs special attention let me know! If they are cat friendly they can stay at my place otherwise I can make arrangements to potentially stay at your place if your pet needs overnight care. My attention to detail and deep compassion will guide my care as I communicate with you to best understand needs, schedule and expectation of care. I love direct, clear communication that helps us make a plan and communicate any changes or challenges along the way.
“Jeannine took great care of my senior dog who required special medication and treatment during her stay while we were in Steamboat. Perfect place for her to nap and relax over the weekend!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I’ve had all types of pets ranging from dogs and cats to horses and reptiles and have 15+ years of experience in pet sitting. I have extensive experience with horses and farm animals as well, through riding, competing, and training horses for most of my life. My 1.5-year-old Catahoula Leopard Dog, Ruger, comes with me to any stays that I book. He is very well behaved and friendly with all animals. When I am not at your house (at work, errands, etc.), he goes back to stay at my house. If you have ANY questions at all about me or my services, feel free to reach out and I would love to get to know you and your furry friend! I work Monday – Thursday at the hospital and have short mid-day lunch breaks, but if you live within 5 minutes of the hospital, I can often make mid-day potty breaks work with my schedule. I work Monday - Thursday at the hospital and have short mid-day lunch breaks, but if you live within 5 minutes of the hospital, I can often make mid-day potty breaks work with my schedule. During my non-working hours and on my off days, I am able to spend as much time with your pets as possible. I am committed to making sure your pet is safe and well cared for in a setting that is familiar to them. If your pet has any special needs or requirements, I am happy to work with you to accommodate them.

“Absolutely wonderful to work with! Her communication was absolutely amazing and she treated our home and more importantly our baby girl with so much kindness and respect we have no words! We 100% recommend her!”
About: Since I’m unable to have a pet of my own, pet sitting is something I truly enjoy! I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I am very familiar with animal husbandry, as I grew up caring for livestock along with our family animals too. I currently work a very flexible schedule, especially in the summer time. I can take multiple breaks in my day to best accommodate your pets needs I am unable to offer pet sitting in my home at this time. I always treat your home as I would mine, and leave it better than I found it.
About: While dogs are great, I have a massive soft spot for the true rulers of the house—cats! I know that winning over a cat is an art form, and I pride myself on being a certified 'cat person' who respects their boundaries and understands their unique quirks. Whether your kitty is a social butterfly who wants to play with feather wands all day, or a quiet soul who prefers a clean litter box, a fresh bowl of water, and some space, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and completely pampered while you're away.
About: Your pet will be loved and taken on whatever kind of adventure you prefer. Walking, hiking, skiing, or river time! Then, snuggling in the evening. I am a teacher so have the whole summer off to play! During the school year, my husband has a flexible schedule so between the two of us, we can take care of whatever your pet needs! I have a very friendly dog who will both want to play and snuggle:) Let us know what you need and we will take care of it!
“Erin was marvelous with my dog and cats.She kept these nervous parents up to date with our pet’s activities and certainly allayed our fears. Would highly recommend Erin for your pet sitting needs”
About: I have had cats my entire life and have always loved them. I currently have a 13 year old cat and a 2 year old dog, who both get along well with other cats. However, I also have a spare room in which we could separate your cat from my pets if needed, or my pets can stay with our upstairs neighbor if your cat if not comfortable with other animals. I am committed to approaching every cat with what they personally need whether that be cuddles or space, since cats are such funny unique personalities.
About: I am a cat person! I have had cats my entire childhood and adopted my cat, Manny as soon as I graduated college! I am no stranger to litter boxes or canned wet food and I'm happy to provide play time and socialization while you're away!
About: * I "meet" your cat at whatever personality they possess * If they like to be held, petted, and knead on shirts - great! * If they want to chase a laser or fish on a string for hours - we'll do it! * If they prefer some alone time and just want a clean box and nibbles - no problem!
“We needed to find a dependable pet sitter when a cousin who had been our sitter moved away. Kayleen has done daily drops in twice (so far) for our cherished kitty and 250 gallon fish tank. Once for an extended international trip and the second time for a long weekend. She is not only experienced but professional and dependable. It’s such a relief to know that our pets and home are in good hands when we are away. I would absolutely recommend Kayleen!”
“Cierra was excellent and I'll absolutely be contacting her for future pet care. She communicated quickly and clearly and kept us informed. Trustworthy, honest and timely throughout the entire process. Highly recommended.”
About: I have helped with fostering baby kittens for the past couple of years and my family has four cats of our own. I have the experience needed for your little one! I also just recently adopted a kitten who is turning 1 on May 11th!
About: I have been caring for cats since early childhood and have a true passion for animals. Pet sitting was my first means of income as a child with my neighbors (and parents) allowing me to care for their animals into my home while also growing up with a number of dogs, cats, birds, reptiles and rodents. My love for animals has only grown and for the first time in my life I have no pets of my own. For that reason, Rover is the perfect opportunity for me to spend time where my heart is and surround myself with what I love while also helping others. Look forward to hearing from you!
About: I have experience in all things dog walking, training, crate training, bath time, feeding time, medicine distribution, playtime, socializing, house training, dog birthday parties, and specialized attention. I prioritize dogs health and walkies so I always get up in the cold mornings, feed them on time, take good walks, and take them to the park for socialization. I base my schedule around letting them out and giving them enough playtime to reduce boredom. My house is clear of any hazards and all cleaning supplies are put away. Since it’s not my pet, we will not be going off leash on walks.
About: With a decade of professional cat care experience and a lifetime of personal experience caring for my own cats, I bring a deep understanding of feline needs. I am comfortable and skilled in handling cats of all ages, from playful kittens to senior cats requiring special attention. Your feline friend will receive the highest level of care and affection with me.
About: I will treat your pup with the love and detail I treat my own. Grew up with dogs and currently have a 8 year old field golden retriever named Thule. I have 10 years of experience working with dogs professionally, including volunteer work with Midwest Animal Resue and Services on the Receiving and Adoption team. I also own and operate a dog care business locally, Steamboat Pets, and serve as Board Vice President of the Routt County Humane Society. I’m insured and certified in dog CPR/First Aid. Dog care is my life, literally! I quit my corporate job of 13 years to care for dogs in the Steamboat Springs and surrounding communities. I will take your lead on what your dog needs - you know best! I will also have back up supplies, especially when staying overnight or going out on long hikes.
“Karissa was so wonderful with our pups!! We have two big dogs and they are super hairy and shed like crazy. She brushed them and took great photos to let us know the pups were happy and safe! Very professional and easy to communicate with. Will definitely book with her again! Thank you”

“Laura watched our dog for 6 hours. It was last minute and she was very accommodating. I'm sure he had a great time playing with her dog and kids, and going on a walk. I highly recommend Laura, and would ask her to pet sit again! Such a nice convenience. Knowing he was in good hands let us enjoy a nice day in steamboat.”

I work from home and only leave the house for short periods of time (no more than two hours). Dogs have 24 hour access to the yard which is pretty Houdini-proof! Hank used to climb the chain link fence! We have a fenced yard, dog door and plenty of comfy spots to nap! Hank loves company and will be a good buddy to your dog!

About: What your pup gets on a stay stay with them: ~ At least 2 walks a day. (unless otherwise directed) ~ Affection galore (one of the most important parts, and they will still be happy to go home to you. :) ~ Feeding schedule and types of food stuck to (a change in food is one of the things that can make pups most nervous). ~ A peaceful time and place to sleep. ~ And, play! (if so desired) ~ and pictures and videos for you, depending on whether the pups keep doing what they are doing while I break out my phone. HaHa! My dear Poco has crossed the rainbow 🌈 bridge: April 29, 2024. She lived a very long a full life and I continue this work knowing she is still my “assistant”. I do sometimes have more than one sit at a time, so please specify if your pal(s) are amicable to making new furiends. My life is currently in transition. I am currently around quite often for your furpets' needs. I can also care for birds and small fuzzy creatures (hamsters, etc.) Making sure people's fur-children are safe is my number one priority. I take safety measures such as always checking leashes and harnesses are secure and tight enough so they won't slip out. I wrap the leash around my wrist in a way that will keep them secure even if they get startled. I check areas to make sure there are no tempting things to eat on walks or in any areas. I listen to pet "owners" regarding what they know about their "kids" and make sure to follow instructions.

“Liah was attentive and kept us apprised of Trudy's visit throughout the days! Between walks and cuddles she was the perfect landing spot for our Xmas week in Steamboat. Highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was little, mostly house sitting and through my parents and sister's many different pets. I love training, walking, and cuddling with these empathetic creatures. I also have some experience in helping out at a dog boarding and day care facility in Steamboat Springs. I graduated December 2021 with my Outdoor Education AA and my Sustainability Studies BA from Colorado Mountain College. I then had the privilege to travel internationally and more locally for a year afterwards but the yampa valley curse sucked me back in! I now live in Steamboat full time. Last year I was unfortunately laid off from my position as Conservation Corps Program Manager at Rocky Mountain Youth Corps due to federal funding cuts. BUT lucky for you and your pets that does mean that I have more availability for walks and sitting! I am also working at Mary’s Mountain Cookies downtown. I can provide any environment that best suits your dog. I want them to feel safe and to stick with their routine while you are away. I prefer house sitting rather than drop ins with dogs that are not used to their owners being away for long periods of time. I will do my best to provide stability, basic needs, and of course lots of love, attention and cuddles! Aside from the occasional travels, outdoor adventures, and family visits, I am working almost full time at Mary’s Mountain Cookies downtown. I do have a lot of flexibility in my schedule and can check on pups during my breaks etc. I want your dog to be the most comfortable they can be while you are gone. I will try to stick to their normal routine and training as closely as possible and provide them lots of love and play time!
“Cristina was awesome. Daisy had such a great time there and was always surrounded by a few dogs at least. So much running room and so much to do for her in the yard. I'll definitely have Daisy back there next time I leave town.”
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets for years. My own dog Koi, a 5-year-old mixed breed, lives with us full-time and is great with other dogs, so your pup will have a built-in playmate. Koi and I go on daily walks together, rain or shine, so your dog will always get plenty of exercise and attention. I work from home, so there's almost always someone around to give your pup attention, bathroom breaks, and playtime throughout the day. Daily walks are already part of my routine with my dog Koi, so your pet will easily join in on that consistent schedule. I don't have a fenced yard, but have plenty of grass space right at home plus a park just a short walk away for extra playtime and exercise. My 5 yr old mixed breed dog, Koi, is friendly and great with other dogs and will keep your fur baby company. Koi lives in our house full-time, so guest dogs join an already calm, settled home environment. Since I work from home, your dog won't be left alone for long stretches. Weekends are quite active in our house, often including 8+ mile hikes or long lake days, so your pup will get plenty of outdoor adventure.
“Just Perfect! Hadley was SO caring and thoughtful when watching our dog Abby. Hadley sent daily updates and pictures so we knew Abby was having a good time and it gave us confidence that she was in good hands while we were away. When we picked Abby up and took her home she was calm and settled in right away which shows how content she was. We had been worried about leaving Abby as she didn’t do well when we left her at a different boarder, but those fears are long gone now. We definitely will be using Hadley in the future!”
“Elisabeth is phenomenal! She watched our pups for 5 days and provided them with the best care. She was very aware of each dog’s needs/rules and was so attentive. We also had some logistical complexity during our time in Steamboat, and she was so easy to work with, super communicative, and very helpful!”
“We were so lucky to find Suzanne and her family to watch our beloved dog Josie while we skiing at Steamboat! From the moment we met them, we knew Josie would be in great hands. They were incredibly welcoming and clearly experienced with dogs and have formal training experience. Throughout our trip, they sent us regular updates and photos, which put our minds at ease. It was obvious that Josie was having a blast! When we picked her up, she was happy and relaxed. We're so grateful to Suzanne and her family for taking such wonderful care of our furry family member. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
About: I grew up on a farm and have taken care of all kinds of animals my entire life. I love animals, and will treat your pets with the same love and care as I do for my own (1 cat one dog, both good with other animals). I have raised multiple cats and dogs throughout my life. I am working full time during the week, 8-4 Monday-Friday. I work as a life enrichment coordinator at Casey's pond, where I actually bring my dog (and sometimes my cat!) to work and they get to spend time with residents. This job allows me a lot of flexibility, and I am able to come home every 2 hours. I am free every weekend, and overnight care is also possible with my schedule. I have a fenced in yard and an guest bedroom which your pet could stay in, we are also able to fit a crate in here. My pets are allowed on all the furniture. I have a well behaved 1.5 year old dog who would love nothing more than to show your dog (or cat) around our house, and a 13 year old cat who is absolutely oblivious to any other animals and just does her own thing. I love spending time outside and will play with / walk your dogs if desired!
About: I am an animal lover and will do anything in my power to ensure your furbaby is well-cared for and communication is clear and exceeds your expectations so you can ease your worries and take care of business or enjoy your vacation. I am available for drop in visits morning, throughout the day and at the end of the day. If your pet needs special attention let me know! If they are cat friendly they can stay at my place otherwise I can make arrangements to potentially stay at your place if your pet needs overnight care. My attention to detail and deep compassion will guide my care as I communicate with you to best understand needs, schedule and expectation of care. I love direct, clear communication that helps us make a plan and communicate any changes or challenges along the way.
“Jeannine took great care of my senior dog who required special medication and treatment during her stay while we were in Steamboat. Perfect place for her to nap and relax over the weekend!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I’ve had all types of pets ranging from dogs and cats to horses and reptiles and have 15+ years of experience in pet sitting. I have extensive experience with horses and farm animals as well, through riding, competing, and training horses for most of my life. My 1.5-year-old Catahoula Leopard Dog, Ruger, comes with me to any stays that I book. He is very well behaved and friendly with all animals. When I am not at your house (at work, errands, etc.), he goes back to stay at my house. If you have ANY questions at all about me or my services, feel free to reach out and I would love to get to know you and your furry friend! I work Monday – Thursday at the hospital and have short mid-day lunch breaks, but if you live within 5 minutes of the hospital, I can often make mid-day potty breaks work with my schedule. I work Monday - Thursday at the hospital and have short mid-day lunch breaks, but if you live within 5 minutes of the hospital, I can often make mid-day potty breaks work with my schedule. During my non-working hours and on my off days, I am able to spend as much time with your pets as possible. I am committed to making sure your pet is safe and well cared for in a setting that is familiar to them. If your pet has any special needs or requirements, I am happy to work with you to accommodate them.
About: I don’t just “watch” dogs I connect with them. Every pup I care for is treated like family, with personalized attention based on their unique personality, energy, and needs. Whether it's playing fetch until their tail can’t wag any faster, sticking to a strict medication schedule, or just being a calm presence for anxious dogs I show up with heart, patience, and intuition. I keep pet parents updated with honest, real time updates and photos, so they always feel confident and connected. My space (or theirs) is always safe, clean, and full of love. This isn’t just a side gig for me it’s what I genuinely love doing. I work just three days a week (Tuesday-Thursday) and I’m off every weekend, which means I’m fully available to give your dog the love, time, and attention they deserve when most people are scrambling for coverage. Need help during the week? No problem! I can absolutely care for your dog on weekdays too just know that I’m at work from 6 AM to 5 PM. If your pup is comfortable hanging out during the day (with all day access to food, water, and a safe space), I’m more than happy to help. I make sure they’re well cared for before and after work with walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. Whether it’s weekends, overnight stays, or occasional weekday help I’m here to make life easier for you and happier for your pup. When your dog stays with me, they’ll have their own private room to relax and feel completely at ease. They can snooze on a comfy queen sized bed or I can set up their own dog bed whatever makes them feel most at home. My own dogs sleeps in my bed, so your pup will have their own peaceful space to unwind and rest. Plus, we have a huge backyard that’s perfect for playtime, potty breaks, and getting out all that extra energy. Whether your pup loves to run, sniff, or just sunbathe, they’ll have plenty of safe space to enjoy the outdoors. Your dog isn’t just staying over they’re joining a calm, loving home designed with their comfort in mind
“Jessie did an amazing job boarding our dog for over two weeks during the holidays! Our dog made great friends with her Goldens. She gave us updates everyday. We'll be return customers for sure!”
