“We used Rover for the first time and had an absolutely wonderful experience with Jolene and Thomas. We felt very comfortable meeting Jolene. She provided excellent updates and pictures throughout the weekend. We can tell that our dog also was very comfortable in their home and returned to us well taken care of. Jolene and Thomas provided excellent care and we recommend them without any reservations”
About: I have 20+ years of experience taking care of senior dogs, puppies, and rambunctious teens. I lost my senior girl in August 2026 and have wanted to spend time with the energy and love of dogs since then. She was on a few medicines, but we made her sunset years beautiful and fun. I would love to spend time with your pets, making sure they are happy, safe, and comfortable while you are gone! I’m currently looking for remote work and have all the time in the world for your pets! I am interested in spending time outside with pets, making sure they are having fun while you are gone! My home is open to dogs, but unfortunately an allergy prohibits cats. I have a ranch style house which is nice and easy for seniors to get in and out of. The backyard is fenced so they can roam, or we can put on a leash and explore the land around us. I have dog beds and toys for them to tear up or carrying around - whatever’s clever!
“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.”
“Melissa was amazing with our pup Ziggy. She sent great updates, and was so thoughtful & thorough about his care. Ziggy came back so tired and happy. Thank you so much, Melissa!”
“Angela and her family were awesome! Very hospitable and cared for me dog very well! Could tell her felt very at home. Our dog loved their porch and big yard. Would come back to Angela’s great home!”
“The dogs loved Billy and being at his place. He was super helpful in communicating with friends about pick up drop off details. Would def have them stay there again when I am in town in need of dog sitting.”
“Our 2-year-old dog, Charlie, enjoyed spending 2 days with Lila while we were doing vacation activities that were not dog friendly. Lila was easy to communicate with, took Charlie on long walks, and gave him a lot of attention. He was wagging his tail and eager to go inside when we went back the second day!”
“Julie was very responsive to my last-minute booking request, which was made when our regular sitter cancelled. She took great care of our pups and sent regular updates with pictures. We felt very comfortable leaving our dogs for the weekend and will definitely use her services the next time we're in the area.”

“Allison is fantastic with my 2 cats. She has been reliable, a good communicator, and I can tell that when I come home she not only followed instructions, but has gone the extra mile towards treating my furbabies with love. And she herself is a lovely young woman. I highly recommend her.”
“Shawna and her son were absolutely amazing!!! Super communicative, caring, and professional. Went above and beyond to provide the best care for my cat. My cat loved them! Couldn’t have asked for a better duo. Look forward to booking them again :).”
About: I have over 12 years of professional experience working with dogs, including shelter and rescue work, animal control, and managing a busy dog daycare and boarding facility. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities, including puppies, seniors, high-energy dogs, and dogs that may need a little extra patience. I have extensive experience reading canine body language, managing safe dog interactions, following feeding and medication routines, and recognizing when something just isn’t quite right. Most importantly, I treat every dog in my care like an individual and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and is something I’m used to planning my schedule around. I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and sitting. As I take on part-time work, I’ll continue scheduling bookings around my work hours so every pet gets the time, attention, exercise, and routine they need. I try to keep each pet’s routine as familiar and consistent as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely and make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and downtime based on their individual needs. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and keep things clean and secure. In my home, I focus on creating a calm, safe environment and closely supervise interactions so every pet stays comfortable and happy.
“THANK YOU SO MUCH KRYSTAL for taking care of Jackson (and watering my outside plants). I was able to relax on our trip knowing Jackson was in good hands. I hope you will come back and care for Jackson again sometime in the future! Luann & Ed”
“Paige was very understanding and willing to work with Buzz. She listened to my concerns and asked follow up questions.Buzz is very dog reactive due to being attacked by an off leash dog and she handled him with care. I would recommend Paige! She's also very communicative!”
“With so much stress in the world it’s very refreshing to feel totally comfortable leaving my furry best friend with someone like Julia. My pup took to her immediately. Highly recommend Julia and I’ll look her up next time I’m in need of a dog sitter in Salida.”
“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.”

“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.”
“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!”

“Our two dogs had a lot of fun at Anastacias property with her friendly kids and dog. They took our dogs to the river and let them play outside a bunch. Our dogs were tired from playing and well cared for. Would recommend and bring our dogs there again.”
“Catherine was wonderful - very flexible on time, sent lots of pics, located right in town, and had a gorgeous backyard for our pups to play in. It worked out great for us, on vacation in BV, when we needed a place for our pups while we were rafting, etc. Would definitely recommend and book with her again!”
“Julie was so flexible and kind to let Mia stay with her for two days!! I could tell Mia had a blast because she slept peacefully for hours after her playdate. If I am ever in the area again I will be rebooking her ☺️”
“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.”

“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.”

“Jamie was the perfect dog sitter for my 6 month old pup! So sweet, best sitter in Mammoth, and will be using again! My boyfriend and I wanted our pup to enjoy the outdoors while he and I went golfing, and Jamie was better than perfect. She picked my pup up and went on TWO hikes with him! She was sweet and sent fun photos and he was perfectly tuckered out when we got home. Thanks Jamie!”
