“We are very thankful to have had Catherine caring for our pup. She kept us updated on him throughout his time with her. He had a blast during his stay and came back a very happy pup. Highly recommend Catherine!”

About: When I was younger we didn’t have a dog of our own so we would dog sit! I love caring for other animals and especially enjoy going on long walks with them. I work taking a walk in my schedule on a daily basis regardless how busy I am. Which Im usually not that busy. There’s always time for your pup! I had to move apart from my dog but when I’m with her we go on at least two walks a day. Also when I was growing up we would dog sit where I learned a lot about special breeds and caring for each.
“We took the plunge, leaving our sweet baby with a sitter for the first time and we could not be happier. Michelle sent us photos and gave us updates along the way which kept our minds at ease. We will most definitely use Michelle again!”
“Raffelina is an excellent" puppy sitter". She took care of our 15 year old and our 1 year old. She took great care of our older dog who can't hear or see and I believe she was very caring and loving toward her. The same with our little puppy who demands a lot of attention too. Communication with us was exceptional. We received both texts and pictures. I highly recommend Raffelina to care for any pets.”
“Dawn was amazing! She took great care of Eva and sent us regular updates. She's super friendly and absolutely loves our pup. I had zero worries about Eva while we were away. We will definitely be reaching out to Dawn next time we need a sitter.”
“Julia is genuinely outstanding! it is clear she cared so much for my pup and had the knowledge to handle an energetic and sometimes stubborn doggo. My only worry was that my dog seemed to be happier with Julia than she is with me! Highly, highly recommend Julia for any of your pets, she is an absolute gem:)”
“I’m so fortunate to have found Amanda to watch my pup, Bear, for a whopping 10 days! Amanda is a total pro with dogs and Bear quickly became one of the family. My girl had a ranch-dog adventure and I could see how happy and safe she was from the pics. The daily pics put a huge smile on my face. Even though it’s hard to be away from Bear, I will definitely be asking Amanda to board her again when I have to be away.”
“Sarah was conscientious, loving, and relaxed with our baby during the weekend stay in Salida. We felt confident and at peace while she cared for and entertained our dog. If you are visiting Salida, and can’t have your pet at the place you are staying, Sarah’s service is the perfect solution! Her communication, updates, genuine love and playful joy for her furry clients, were all so appreciated! Thank you!!!”
“Alexa was so great with Leo and I really appreciated the photo updates she gave. In chatting with her for a few mins, I instantly felt at ease leaving my pup over night. He had a great time and I will always check if Alexa is available whenever I’m back in the area. 100% recommend. Thanks again!”

“Sarah took fantastic care of our cat Greta while we were away for several days. She posted photos throughout, played with Greta, and left everything in great shape! Greta was relaxed and calm when we returned. We highly recommend Sarah!”
“Emma has been such a blessing. We’ve had more travel than usual and hate leaving our cat, Eddie. Emma has been so wonderful with him and communicating with me. Such a comfort having her.”
“Cassidy was great! She stayed with our cat while we were out of town for 2 weeks. The house was clean and tidy when we got home and all our plants were looking good too. I would recommend and rebook for sure.”
About: I love animals but unfortantly live in a place where I am unable to have my own. I am flexible with my availability, because I work for myself. I am an energetic person and I love going on runs and seeing the sites. Your fur-ball would have a great time and get all of their energy out when booking with me. Animals need some time to get out of the house just like people, I would provide that type of service. I do not like being cooped up in a home, I like to see as much as I can by going far and wide. A skill that I posses is that I can pilot a single engine plane. I am also an avid runner. I work part time at a restaurant for a max of 6 hour shifts. I am able to be around for the majority of the days. I own a home in a quiet neighborhood with a partially fenced in yard. You’re pet can wonder all around the home and will be walked around a neighborhood with minimal traffic.

“Julia was so helpful coming through pretty last minute for a day watch while our family went to the Hotsprings! It was so clutch and Edna was instantly friends with her! So happy to have a trusted dog sitter in our home away from home!”
“I was nervous to leave my dog for the first time and Leanne was so kind and great about it! She sent updates and photos. Shiner had such a good time playing ball and swimming. Definitely recommend!”
“Paige was great. I was in Salida working at an event and she picked up and dropped off my dog, she was very punctual. Our two dogs got on well. My dog went on long hikes and was happy and tired when I got her back. Would definitely recommend Paige for anyone needing a sitter or dog walker.”
“My dog had a fabulous day with Alexa today! Lots of outdoor time with texts and photos which definitely allowed me to enjoy my day as well knowing that my dog was having fun and not home alone. Made me wonder if she would want to come home since she was having such a lovely day!”
“It was a comfort leaving Cora and Quinn with Lila. They took to her immediately and enjoyed her yard and the couch bed. Lila texted that they settled down and they both slept well at her home. Thanks Lila, it made our day more relaxing knowing they were with you.”
“Sarah was great! I can tell she loves dogs and has an environment where they feel like they’re at home. She sent pictures during his visit and my dog warmed right up to her. I’m sure we will have a tired pup when we get home. Thanks, Sarah”
About: Animal lover with a home to share. I have had pets since I was little and promote positive reinforcement with my pet training. I live on 3.75 acres with access to many walking trails right from the house and love to have a good excuse to get outside through out the day. I work for myself from home so I am very flexible and do not have any other pets that live with me at the moment. I would be happy to help you out when you are away! I work for myself from home so I am very flexible with my availability. I enjoy exercise so an excuse to walk a dog a few times a day works great with my schedule. I have a fenced portion of my yard and do not have any other pets in the home. I am clean and do not have a lot of clutter so there is not a lot of stuff for pets to get into.

About: I have had cats and dogs since I was a little girl. Friends and family have had me pet sit their dogs regularly since then. I am available for walks and drop in visits and anytime! My work schedule also allows me to be available for boarding and day care 7 days a week! I have a fenced yard and dogs to keep your dog company. If you need me to crate your fur baby, I can also do that! I’m currently working on my medical coding certification and I am home all day/night, so I can give your fur-babies tons of love and attention I have a fenced yard when I keep dogs in Salida. I love to cuddle with dogs and take them on walks, hikes, or anything you would like me to do with them!
About: I have had and trained dogs since I was a child. Neighbors, friends and families have relied on me to care for their pets when they were unable to. I have experience with large and small breads as well as cats. My past cat had cerebellar hypoplasia so I also have experience with disabled pets. I am currently working Mon.-Thurs so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pets! I don't currently have any pets of my own but they bring me so much joy! I will take exceptional care of your pets and treat them like they are my own. I am currently working Mon.-Thurs so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pets! I am off around 4pm but my schedule is pretty flexible if your doggo needs to go out at lunch. I am usually around Salida on the weekends. I have an unfenced yard but can take your dog out on a leash and I love going on walks around town! I will take extra care of your pets as well as your home while you're away.
“I was in a tight schedule and one sitter had moved long ago from Colorado and with another I got a false acceptance, paid, and then received an unavailable notice and a third just never responded. Krystal came to the rescue and she visited and took care of Zion for two days while I was down in Denver at meetings. Great personality, responsible and sent me regular updates.”
“Casey was quick to respond and I really appreciated the pictures of Piper! She was kind enough to come to my VRBO house and walk my spunky Jack Russell while we were out. I would definitely recommend Casey to friends & family!!”
“Craig got the dogs out and well exercised today. He navigated the walk through the neighborhood, during a time of day when there are other dogs on their afternoon walks—even one that was off leash. I’ll definitely be rebooking.”
About: Hi there! I have 2 cats and 2 dogs, I have had them for 15 years and the 2 cats for longer. It has been a blessing in my life to share time with these animals and has inspired me to branch off to exploring new types of animals to spend time with. As a trained massage therapist, I also offer pet massage for $30 for 30 minutes and $60 for 60 minutes! I work part time as a massage therapist and I pet sit on my free time. I am available when I am not booked as a massage therapist and have 3-4 days open a week where I am always free. I walk the dogs regularly and take them to use the bathroom periodically. Spending time comforting is one thing I really enjoy the most. Each of their needs will always be met, physically and emotionally.

About: First off, i want to say that please give me several hours to respond to your requests.. due to the nature of living in the mountains and me sometimes having to drive, it often takes me a while to respond. There are times where the messages do not forward to my personal phone number until I’m back home on my personal Wi-Fi. I usually try to respond to all request within a few hours. I have over 25 years experience with all kinds of pets. We’ve been on Rover since the beginning of the app. I mean ALL KINDS! I have had iguanas to tarantulas and everything in between. We have no pets in the home and I usually only take one pet off of Rover at a time ...unless they are together. I have an 15 year old, animal lover daughter who loves to play and walk our Rover dogs with me..So, it like two professional dogs sitters for the price of one. We miss having a dog in our life and want to pamper yours. She also likes to take naps with them on the couch Our house is controlled by the pets. I work from home, in education, and am available for very flexible hours starting after my first morning meeting (8a.m). I can sometimes do earlier drop off times by request. Even when the weather is nasty, (like it often is in the mountains) we are in and out all day...I have many satisfied clients and many locals we work with year round. We have a fully fenced in yard and house but I never allow dogs in the yard without me accompanying them. I can try to do meet and greets for reservations requiring their pets to be here several nights or more. I can no longer fit in meet and greets for doggie daycare. It gets too hectic during season and I often have other pets we are watching during those times. It cuts into the time that others have paid for me to be with their pets. If you message me, it may take me a little while to get it from the app as a text and respond. My work schedule during the day (as well as the lousy phone service we have been having during season), delays things an hour or two at times. The messages get sent to my phone as a text from the app but it is not always instant. I respond back as soon as i can! Usually last minute request work fine with me as I am always home. I am always willing to negotiate price for reservations that are longer term for for multiple pets. I Work from home Monday through Friday and every other Saturday so I am always here with the pets staying with us I am available for drop offs anytime after 8:30 am on those days Weekends are more open with scheduling We walk throughout the work day as weather permits and on weekends can take dogs on more extensive walks if their health allows it. For those looking to just relax on the couch, we get that too!
About: Hi there! I'm a full-time traveler who works remotely, meaning I can give your pets tons of attention, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. I've cared for dogs and cats in San Diego and beyond, including lots of time with my friend’s sweet pup Jack. Whether your pet needs quiet companionship or an adventure buddy, I adapt to their energy and needs. I especially enjoy being outdoors and love taking dogs on hikes, runs, or just long strolls through the neighborhood. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every animal like family. Special skills: • Comfortable with energetic breeds • Long walks and outdoor play • Remote work = flexible schedule I work remotely full-time, which means I can give your pet consistent attention throughout the day: walks, playtime, or just being a calm, reassuring presence. I love staying active, so if your dog enjoys running, they’re welcome to join me on jogs! My flexible schedule lets me adjust to their routine and needs easily. While I don’t have a permanent home (I’ve been traveling the U.S. in my van) I’m extremely respectful of each client’s space and always prioritize pet safety and comfort. I follow your pet’s routines, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure they feel calm and cared for. I travel light and adapt quickly to new environments, making your pet’s wellbeing my top focus.
