“We are so happy that we found trustworthy dog sitters for Knox that he absolutely loves in Golden. We love Mitzi and Klifton. They are always our #1 choice.”
“This was our first time using Rover and Shanik made our experience nothing short of amazing! She is so kind and considerate, truly a dog lover! Shanik sent us tons of adorable pictures and updates of our dog while we were away. We felt our dog was incredibly loved and well taken care of. Both Shanik and her husband were easy to get in touch with and made pick up/drop off a breeze. We highly recommend bringing your pet to Shanik! Thanks again! We’re so glad we found you!”
“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.”
“Georgia watched our two dogs for the week of Thanksgiving and we returned to calm, happy, well cared for pups. Georgia is an obvious dog lover, has a wonderful home/space to keep your dogs and is genuinely a kind and communicative person! I highly recommend this sitter! We will definitely be back!”
“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!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Delane when she cared for Monet for three days. From the very beginning, during our meet and greet, we genuinely enjoyed our conversation with her. Delane is such a lovely and thoughtful person, and clearly experienced with dogs. Her dog, Lucy, is absolutely sweet and gentle, and Monet and Lucy got along very well. Delane’s home is warm and welcoming, and Monet settled in right away. She kept us updated throughout Monet’s stay, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that Monet was not only well cared for, but also comfortable. We would happily book with Delane again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, warm, and dependable caregiver. Thank you, Delane!!”
“Our boys were happy and tired after their weekend at Sarah's. She has a large yard and a tall fence which worked well for our rescue pup, who is an escape artist. We will rebook!”
“We had a great experience with Alex. He is very kind and is a dog lover. He was great with communication and drop off pickup and being flexible with our times. He let us enjoy our trip but sent a few messages and took amazing photos of our dog Chip. He was thoughtful and gave us some prints and a magnet of his photography of our cutie pup Chip. We will definitely be using Alex again. Thank you!”
“Maggie was fantastic! She was warm, communicative and accommodating when I needed to add pick up/drop-off after booking. She sent tons of pics and Meilo seemed very happy spending the weekend with her. I will definitely be booking with Maggie again soon!”
“Curtis did a fantastic job boarding our golden doodle. He is very thorough and communicates very well. Our dog was very active during her stay with lots of walks and play time. We received lots of photos and even got report cards. Looking forward to our next stay with Curtis.”
“Alex and Jeff and their daughters were exceptional sitters for our pup, Gemma! We were happy knowing Gemma was getting full attention and play time over the holiday weekend. Alex and Jeff were attentive to Gemma’s schedule and habits and communicated well over the weekend. Our dog came home a very tired and happy dog! We’d be thrilled to bring Gemma back again for another stay in the future.”
“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!”
“Stephen and family were wonderful caretakers. My dog instantly felt comfortable with them. I greatly appreciated Stephen's communication, flexibility, and questions to better get to know Bodhi. Knowing my dog was in a great place where he was being cared for and loved helped me enjoy my vacation even more. Thanks for a wonderful experience! Will definitely use again!”
“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!”
“Xiqing and Hector took really good care of Simba and his needs. They kept us updated and also sent lots of Simba's pictures and videos. I got a very happy pup back...I really appreciate their love and care that they gave to Simba 💕 I would really recommend them for your fur baby!”
“Kimberly was highly communicative, flexible, and showed my pup the love and care that we give her at home. I really appreciated the text updates and pictures and will certainly be boarding with her again. It was a great experience all around.”

“Whitney was fantastic with my cat. She was super communicative, and, bonus: she takes great pet photos. Even though my kitty was a bit sassy with her, Whitney gave her wonderful care and attention.”
“I recently had the pleasure of working with Katrina, and I must say, she exceeded all my expectations! Not only was she incredibly kind and caring, but also showed remarkable flexibility when I needed her help at the last minute. Her ability to accommodate my sudden request was truly a lifesaver, and I was impressed by their professionalism and understanding. My furballs were clearly in good hands, and I received regular updates keeping me informed and at ease. Katrina is not just a pet sitter; she’s a fairy godmother for your pets. Her dedication, compassion, and reliability make her an absolute gem - I highly recommend her to anyone seeking trustworthy and loving care for their pets. Thank you for your exceptional self and for being there when I needed you most! ♥️”
“Angela amazing. I will recommend her to anyone and will definitely book again next time we are out of town. She took care of our cats so like they were he own; communicated effectively, sent adorable photos and stories. Our house was better than we left it when we returned home and that's saying something as Angela dealt with the big windstorm that knocked out power to our rural home. She even took care of my plants. Seriously, Angela is a wonderful human being who will treat your pets and home with kindness and respect.”
About: I live here in Boulder County and I have availability for your pet whenever they may need, every day of the week! I love getting outdoors, so if your pet has good leash skills or recall, I’d love to take them running or hiking on local trails! I no longer have any pets of my own, but I did love a beagle and a senior cat (and all his quirks!) for many years. I have ample time throughout my day to stop in to relieve your pet, take them for a walk, stay for a few hours, or even overnight for greater companionship. I bring my services into your own home, so your pet is in a safe and familiar environment. Once we familiarize ourselves, I can help your pet feel as though a friend is coming through the door every time I visit!
About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and am currently a puppy raiser for Guide Dogs for the Blind so haven’t been dog sitting much lately. I love all animals and making new furry friends. I have 10 years experience dog sitting dogs that aren’t my own. I am outside everyday and can take your dog on runs, hikes, walks or play frisbee! I have experience house breaking rescue dogs and teaching them dog tricks. I also work close by and have the flexibility to go home during the day. Feel free to reach out with any questions via email or phone. I work on Pearl st and am very flexible. I can do drop in visits house sitting and I can board one dog at a time for a short period of time I love to play frisbee with dogs, go on runs or walks. I usually spend a good chunk of my day outside and would love to bring your pet along!
About: Experienced with all ages! I’ve raised playful puppies and cared for senior dogs with medical needs. Adaptable to meet the needs of your specific fur baby. I work from home most of the week with a flexible schedule, and I can even bring dogs to my office in the county as needed. As an active person, your pet will enjoy plenty of outdoor playtime and adventures to keep them happy and healthy I provide attentive, loving care for pets in both my home and yours. I’m respectful of the routines and preferences each owner has for their animals, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure. I also maintain a clean and tidy space, so you can trust your home (or mine!) will always be well cared for.
About: Born and raised living in an animal house! Between the 3-4 dogs at a time, 2 cats (+the ones we took care of outside), and the 50+ rabbits we had, oh and lets not forget the pet oppossom we rescued, I'd say I know a thing or two about taking care of animals! I have helped out many of my friends by taking care of the pets and I currently dog sit for a lady right by my house. I am comfortable with all breeds of dogs and happy to help if you have more than one animal! I currently work full time at a little coffee shop in town. Normally working tuesday-saturday. Tuesdays and Wednesdays I tend to get off around 4pm and Thursdays through Saturday I am off at 2pm! Happy to take care of animals early before work and right after I get off. I wouldnt be able to have in-home care at my place but at a clients home I would make sure the animals are well taken care of. They could mean 3 walks a day (with a mix of letting them out in the backyard-if applicable), feeding morning and night, giving treats throughout the day, taking them on hikes (depending on how well trained they are), and providing lots of love and playtime!
About: I’ve been lucky enough to share my home with dogs & cats my whole life, and would love to care for your fur babies overnight in your home, drop-in for walks or spend time giving loving attention & meals. I live in the Nederland area and have a 4wd vehicle with high clearance, so no problems navigating mountain life for your pets! I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes of dog - I’ve raised rescue pups to mature gentleman & well-mannered ladies, and they’ve ranged in size from a 100lbs Golden Retriever/Chow mix to a 13lbs Pug/Shitzu. I’m a stay at home pet momma with a flexible schedule that allows me to can care for your fur babies overnight in your home. I live on five unfenced acres and walk my two dogs (always on leash) around Nederland, Sugarloaf, and surrounding areas of the Canyons. I’d be happy to go on leashed walks/hikes with your doggos! or if you have a yard, I’d be happy to watch your pup closely as we enjoy unleashed play time. I am accustomed to and prepared for mountain life and the variables it brings (wildlife, weather, fires, etc.).
“Lisa has attentively watched over my sweet baby boy on a number of occasions. She has graciously adapted to awkward logistical hitches / changes in care, and is a delightful caretaker. I rest easy knowing that my little man is being looked after by Lisa :)”
“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! ☺️”

“Shanik and family are wonderful pet hosts. Mila loved to spend the days with them. She was happy to play ball outside in the snow for her first time. Shanik took care of Mila while my family and I were out skiing. Mila felt like she was home! Thank you!”
About: I grew up with animals (even cows!) and am a reliable, loving caretaker for you fur babies while you are away. I treat them like they're my own and understand how important our pets/ babies are to all of us as owners! I have plenty of time and work remote running my own business as a health coach. My availability is 24/7, as I can work my hours around what else is needed. Like it is my own. I want to guarantee safety and loving care while you are away, whether it be special edits, meds, walking a lot, taking them to groomers, and or the dog park.
About: I love big dogs, especially GSDs, but have experience with many ages, breeds, and sizes. I grew up with several labs. The last 10 years I raised a German Shepherd from 8 weeks that sadly passed away last summer. Needless to say I miss being covered in dog hair. I have experience with various personalities, separation anxiety, cuts/injuries, and administering medication. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, hikes, and going to parks, but can also just hang out with your pup if that’s what’s desired. I work remote full time and set my own schedule, allowing flexibility all hours and days. I live in a home with plenty of room and a fenced in backyard. Trails are 20 yards away. Reach out if you’d like to set up a meet and greet! I work remotely and make my own schedule, so I’m flexible at all hours and days to provide the care that your dog needs and deserves. Dogs are always welcome in my home! I have plenty of space with a fenced in yard and dogs are allowed on the couch and in the bed. I’m easy to work with, patient (some dogs just like to sniff more than they walk), communicative, and can adjust to any preferred care strategy to provide a trustworthy service while you’re away.
“Dulce loves coming to play with sunny and Angela! Dulce even got to go on long walk and dog park today which she loves being outside in the sun! Dulce and sunny are becoming best friends so fast! They are too cute together! 😊 always love bringing little miss here! Can’t wait to bring her back!”
“We would absolutely trust Lisa with our doggies, Anytime! Lisa went above and beyond to make sure that they had a fun day and were properly taken care of. She sent tons of pictures and videos. Our doggies were exhausted from all of the fun. ? Thank you so much for taking care of our fur babies!”

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 can't wait to meet your dogs and cats! I love pets of all breeds, sizes, and ages including puppies/kittens and seniors. We live on a quiet road in Coal Creek Canyon with a half acre fenced yard! My other work is currently very flexible so I'm available for pet care pretty much any time. I work from home and I'm more than happy to hang at your home with your pet! I'm extremely happy to care for your dog or cat according to your established routines at home. I'm also more than happy to transport them in my car for hikes or walks anywhere in the Nederland area!
“We have been traveling for a week and changing plans due to the lack of snow so we made a very last minute request and Emma was super flexible and communicative. She took great care of Minnie! Minnie can be anxious when away from home but was much calmer than usual when we picked her up. When Minnie needed space from Emma’s playful dogs, Emma gave Minnie her own space in the house. We got updates and photos during the day too. We highly recommend Emma and would use her again if we’re traveling in this area again.”
“Omar was fantastic with our little Peanut. He got plenty of play time and care. Omar has a good sized fenced yard and took Peanut on a joyful walk. He was tired but happy when he got home. What more can we ask for?! Thanks again, Omar!”
“Allison and John were so amazing and took great care of my doggie. They were also super communicative, took lots of pictures and did two walks. Their home has a really nice backyard. I feel super grateful, thank you Allison and John for taking such good care of Yara 🌸🥹”
“Alison was awesome with Metta and sent wonderful photos throughout the day (replete with humorful tag lines). She is a gem of a caregiver, your dog will be lucky to spend a day with her and her canine companions!”
“Dally was wonderful. She was kind and got to know Zuzu, asked great questions, took great care of her, made sure she had fun, and helped her get out her energy. It’s so nice to know I have a great dog sitter for Zuzu!!”
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.
“Judson and his family are great! Their house with the big fenced land is very peaceful and beautiful . My two huskies had the best time running and playing all day. They also went on hike. Thank you for taking care of our babies. Very happy to find them.”
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!
“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!”
“Perfect stay for our Nina. She was taken for walks, we received photos of Nina’s happy day. Trust worthy person, we highly recommend her. Nina was wagging her tail each morning that they me! Perfection. Thank you for taking good care of Nina!!”

I also used to work at a doggy daycare before I graduated from university. I am confident being around large groups of animals and still managing to provide individual care to each animal. I work Monday through Thursday 8a-6p and I commute from Westminster, so I would love the privilege to care for your home and your pet while you are away to save myself some gas money!

I work as a bartender/server so my schedule can be unusual sometimes. But this is also a good thing because I’m often home and available when other people are not. I will adapt to the environment. Whether the client has a fenced in yard or apartment. It’s important for dogs to get safe outdoor time.
About: I've lived most of my life with dogs and cats in addition to sundry other animals from tortoises to tarantulas. I am particularly fond of all dogs which is why my wife and I have fostered nearly a dozen rescue and foster dogs/puppies over the last 8 years. Along with raising two high energy Australian shepherds from puppies, I have had plenty of experience handling medium to large size dogs that can be reactive or fearful under certain situations or are simply a handful. Having worked with a lot of dogs I know they all have their own unique personalities and challenges and understand the importance of flexibly adjusting care strategies. I work from home ~2 days per week and when house sitting will remain with your pet during the day. I generally do long walks in the mornings before work and after. Dog walks or short visits during the day can be arranged as long as they are done so well in advance. I have two relatively high energy dogs who need a lot of attention. Generally, I take them to an open fenced in space in the mornings to play fetch then go for a walk. We then go for a shorter walk in the evenings. We have a small fenced garden that we let them out in to do their business when they need to 2-3 times per day. As our dogs have gotten older and more mellow/better behaved we've relaxed a number of rules such going on furniture or sleeping in our room at night.

“We are so happy that we found trustworthy dog sitters for Knox that he absolutely loves in Golden. We love Mitzi and Klifton. They are always our #1 choice.”
“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.”
“Georgia watched our two dogs for the week of Thanksgiving and we returned to calm, happy, well cared for pups. Georgia is an obvious dog lover, has a wonderful home/space to keep your dogs and is genuinely a kind and communicative person! I highly recommend this sitter! We will definitely be back!”
“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!”
“Our boys were happy and tired after their weekend at Sarah's. She has a large yard and a tall fence which worked well for our rescue pup, who is an escape artist. We will rebook!”
“Alex and Jeff and their daughters were exceptional sitters for our pup, Gemma! We were happy knowing Gemma was getting full attention and play time over the holiday weekend. Alex and Jeff were attentive to Gemma’s schedule and habits and communicated well over the weekend. Our dog came home a very tired and happy dog! We’d be thrilled to bring Gemma back again for another stay in the future.”
“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!”
“Stephen and family were wonderful caretakers. My dog instantly felt comfortable with them. I greatly appreciated Stephen's communication, flexibility, and questions to better get to know Bodhi. Knowing my dog was in a great place where he was being cared for and loved helped me enjoy my vacation even more. Thanks for a wonderful experience! Will definitely use again!”
“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!”
“Xiqing and Hector took really good care of Simba and his needs. They kept us updated and also sent lots of Simba's pictures and videos. I got a very happy pup back...I really appreciate their love and care that they gave to Simba 💕 I would really recommend them for your fur baby!”
“Kimberly was highly communicative, flexible, and showed my pup the love and care that we give her at home. I really appreciated the text updates and pictures and will certainly be boarding with her again. It was a great experience all around.”
“Della took great care of our pup. She’s a senior dog with some anxiety and very limited experience staying with people outside of our family. Della’s warm energy put both our dog and me at ease about her stay. We returned from our vacation to find our dog happy and healthy and enjoyed receiving updates about how she was doing while we were away. We’ll definitely return to Della the next time we need to board our dog.”
“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.”
“Elise was wonderful! Our pup liked her immediately- she has a friendly, warm energy about her. She sent us updates and pics throughout the weekend. Elise is the kind of person you can trust will take great care of your baby :)”
“John and Lynn are simply magical! My pup Toby can be shy when meeting new people, but he immediately went up and greeted both as soon as he met them. I could tell he instantly felt comfortable and at home. Words cannot convey how much love and care they showed Toby (and me!) during his stay. He had a huge smile the entire time, and I could not have imagined a better family to trust my fuzzy boy with. I think they love my boy as much as I do! They felt like an extension of my own family, and it was such a blessing to find them! 💖”
