“We couldn’t have asked for better caregivers for our fur baby Conan! They not only took care of his physical needs, but also his emotional needs. ( thunderstorm support!) In addition, Chris and Laura provided regular updates and photos during his stay, which gave us peace of mind. We feel blessed to have found them, especially with us being new to the area. We will definitely recommend them, as well as continue to take Conan to them in the future. We would rate them as 10 stars if we could! Brian and Evie Novak”

Cat caregivers near you - Rifle
Prices are estimates per visit for 1 cat. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I’ve fostered kittens since I was a kid, and I have a lot of knowledge about how to care for those special little ones. I also have years of experience with elderly kitties who need medication or extra care. Whether your furry friend likes high-energy play or cozy cuddles, I can meet them where they’re at!
About: I strive to treat everyone's furbabies with the highest level of care as if they're my own. I've cared for every age of dog and cat for...really my whole life. I can administer medications and keep an eye on and assist more "special needs" furbabies if needed. I am a Biology major and try to learn as much as I can to care for animals the best I possibly can. I am currently working on animal first aid but I do know human FA so I can spot an emergency and care for minor wounds. I am currently working as needed at my job but, even then, my days are really open. I do have medical appointments here and there so sometimes I just need to leave the house for those but I try to return to the house expeditiously because I dont want the animals to be alone for too long. I understand not leaving dogs (especially) for too long between potty breaks so I can work around that but I try to stay at the house for 95+ percent of the time I am sitting. I purposely work around the animal's schedule so that they can be as comfortable and cared for as possible. I try to get as much information from the owner as possible so that I can make the time as similar to when the owner is around. I know changes can be stressful so avoiding any as much as possible is the best. I am known to be a cuddler but if they want their space I can definitely give it. I can give outside time to the best of my abilities and can transport in my own car with great safety if needed (e.g. if they love lake play, etc.). For younger animals, I can give regular care and make sure the space stays clean and cared for as best as possible. I understand that they need more supervision and help. I also try my best to keep an eye on outdoor heavy animals and shy animals to make sure theyre doing alright during my stay as well.
About: I’ve had all sorts of animals my entire life from lizards to horses. I’ve watched friends, family, and strangers pets along with occasional some kiddos. I’m always available for questions do feel free to reach out anytime!
“This is our second time booking Suzanne and we love working with her. We can tell she loves treating our cat like family and is incredibly thoughtful and flexible.”
“Kat, watched our cat for two weeks while we were on a trip. She took great care of him and sent us messages about how he was doing while we were away. She left the house in excellent shape after staying there for the duration. She is easy to work with and responds quickly. Would highly recommend.”
About: I have grown up with always having animals around. I have lived on multiple farms, and have volunteered with several animal sanctuaries, including one for wildlife in Costa Rica. I also have spent the last five years fostering animals with the Humane society as I lived in Asheville and completed my schooling. Through this experience, I have worked with neonatal newborns, pregnant and nursing mothers, potty training- ages, senior pets, and those who take medication. As I create this account, I am traveling and petsitting on the road. My schedule is very flexible because of this, and so I am open to long or short stays. Every animal is unique, and I love to get to know their personalities and preferences! It is my goal to ensure that animal and animal parent both are happy and comfortable.
About: I have fostered more around 4-5 cats for the past few years providing quality play time, paying special attention to meal times, and caring for cats with health challenges. I hav been described as reliable and organized, showing up when needed and with a plan to care for any animal

“Suzanne is so sweet and an absolute gem. From the moment I met her I was very comfortable leaving my senior dog. She always sent pictures of walking him. I knew Barney loved being with her because when I picked him up he was happy and never showed any stress. Caring and compassionate. Highly recommend.”
“Teresa was THE BEST!! Seriously would trust her with my baby, she did such a wonderful job. She spent the entire day with my sweet boy one on one so my husband and I could check out Glenwood Springs. She took great care of him and spent lots of time with him. She fed him his lunch and even took him out for a stroll on the river walk. Teresa is a delightful person and an excellent doggy day care mom.”
“Sofía was great! She was very communicative and responsive. I love that she took photos of Charro through out his day and she gave me a peace of mind that he was well. Overall, Sofia was very friendly, easy to work with and I really appreciate her care for Charro while he was with her.”
“We are so grateful Andrea accepted our last minute request. She was great at communicating with us and sent us many pictures of Baloo during his time with her. Highly recommend.”
“If I could give her 10 stars I would. She went out of her way to help us out last minute. My dog took to her right away. She was so sweet and kind with him. I received an update shortly after leaving and several others throughout his stay. I felt at ease knowing that he was in her hands!! From one rover sitter to another, thank you so much for treating my boy like your own.”

“We have 2 older dogs, and Morgan was great with them! We had her come to our house 3 times a day to care for them. She left us daily updates on text, and would respond promptly if we would reach out. She really put our mind at ease, and our dogs loved her.”
About: Los perros siempre han sido parte de mi vida desde pequeña, desde mi primer perro a la edad de 6 años, hasta cuidar las mascotas de los vecino o alimentar a perritos de la calle. I work as a CNA, so l usually work just 3 days, so the rest of the days I have free time and l would love to spend it with some cuties Playing with them is important, they usually have a lot of energy, but it's still important to try to train, I'm not an expert but trying to train doesn't hurt
About: Lifelong animal, pet, and nature lover! I have been caring for other people’s pets for over 15 years. At times, life got a little too busy for me to continue with this enjoyable “work”, but now I am able to re-cultivate this passion once again. From walking your dog, to taking them on adventures and hikes, to overnight stays, I am available for your precious pet’s need. I have a Chihuahua mix of my own that I rescued in 2020, and he is such a sweetheart and a major lover of cuddling. During my downtime, I can be found reading, hiking, cleaning, or doing yoga. For a small additional fee, I would love to help you with any other needs you may have, such as house work, organizing, cleaning, or light yardwork. I strive to meet all the needs and desires of your fur bab. From walks, to hikes, to overnight stays, I aim to make myself available! I work in an office setting M-Th 8a-5p, but I typically have flexibility with many breaks and a long lunch. I work from home on Fridays. About twice a month, I am on-call on the weekends (8a-8p), and will provide more details if that overlaps with your booking. I live in Rifle, so I offer drop-in visits and dog walking from Glenwood Springs to Parachute. For overnight stays, I will travel from Aspen to Grand Junction. I have a fenced yard for potty breaks, and a doggy door that leads to my little yard. My dog doesn’t use the doggy door, so I am happy to keep it closed if that is your preference. I love to go on walks with dogs, and will walk them for whatever amount of time they are used to or suits their energy level. I have a sweet, small dog that is friendly to all animals he meets. He will play with your pet, or give your pet space, he is happy either way.

I love animals of every shape and size and treat them like my own—because let’s be honest, they run the household anyway. Your pet will get a happy, stress-free stay with plenty of love, snuggles, and top-tier spoiling. I work a full-time job during the day, but I’m available for drop-ins and visits in the late afternoons and evenings. I’m also free all day on Sundays, as well as one select weekday depending on my schedule. If you communicate your needs ahead of time, I’ll always do my best to make it happen. Your fur baby’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I come to your home so your pet can stay in their favorite place, surrounded by familiar smells and routines. I follow your instructions carefully and keep your home secure, tidy, and respected. You’ll always get clear updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I am based in Carbondale, CO. I am currently pet/house sitting full time throughout the summer so I'm able to provide a high level of care for pets and homes throughout the valley! I've cared for my own dogs, roommates' dogs, friends' pets, Trusted Housesitter stays, and Rover sits over the past 10 years. I've cared for dogs from puppyhood to 13 years old. I've also cat-sat for friends, Trusted Housesitters, and Rover clients over the years. I'm happy to take them on walks, hikes, dog parks, and potty/play breaks throughout the day. The longest I've watched someone's pet was for 2 months, and I loved it! I'm also happy to take them camping if that's their jam. Feel free to reach out with any other questions! A note on transportation - In addition to my ambulance camper, I have an e-bike I often enjoy cycling throughout the valley, so parking availability at your home should not be an issue. I currently am full time pet sitting for the summer. I am very attentive and love morning, midday, fetch, and evening walks. I can take them to the dog park or on hikes, or if they're good with bikes, I can take them on even longer run/bike rides. I am very respectful and clean when staying at a client's house. I treat it like my own (if not better). I love going for walks with your pup and keeping them on a leash. I also don't give in to the cute puppy eyes when I'm eating my food and keep them to their parents' approved food and treats.

It is dependent on my clientele and how many animals I am taking care of. Thank you! I care for all pets in the comfort of your home. It reduces anxiety and is a great way to ensure that the pets get the same amount of care that you give them!
