Personalized care for your dog or cat - Somerset

“Jess is the best dogsitter I’ve ever had! We are repeat customers and drive over an hour to meet her as she is just the best! We have three dogs and she knows how to oh handle them and their different personalities. It’s amazing. She also was super flexible w last minute trip issues and I can’t thank her enough for that. She’s the only sitter I feel 💯 comfortable leaving my dogs with. Thank you, Jess!!!”

About: Looking for a stress-free alternative to a traditional kennel? With a background in veterinary medicine, I offer personalized boarding on our quiet, rural property in Delta County. I accept only 1-2 dogs (from one family) at a time, ensuring plenty of individual attention, supervised outdoor time in our large, shaded, grassy kennel, and a calm, home-like environment. Daily photo updates are included, and I am experienced with administering medications, caring for senior dogs, and other special care needs. I offer a complimentary meet-and-greet before your dog's first stay. For everyone's safety and comfort, guest dogs must be non-reactive and friendly with children and other dogs. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m on-site the majority of the day and provide attentive, reliable care for your dog. I offer flexible drop-off and pick-up times and am happy to create a personalized care plan to meet your pet’s individual needs and routine. I provide a large, fenced run with access to water and shade as well as a comfortable and secure indoor space. My own dog prefers to spend a majority of nice weather days outdoors but will come inside when the weather is inclement, when its too hot, and, of course, overnight. Leashed walks throughout our 90 acre farm are available as well.

“I've left Cinna with Brenda multiple times now and she always communicates and sends photos. I feel safe with my lil guy in her hands and appreciate her flexibility in my day before bookings. Anytime I'm in Rifle/Glenwood and in need, she's my go-to!”

“SalleAnn was such a kind and generous sitter. She took the time to welcome us while we witnessed Loki get to know the other dogs and housemate. She took Loki on a hike. She taught us a skill with the leash to keep Loki from pulling. She was super flexible with scheduling when we returned late from our day trip. I hope to return soon and stop by to say hello even if we don’t need a sitter.”

About: I have lots of experience (9+ years) working at pet stores and caring for my own pets! I have housed puppies in the past and walked dogs as a side job. . I have a very active Australian Sheppard whom I've had since she was 7 weeks. I'm also very active so higher energy dogs are a great match! If you'd like I can take them into the mountains with me for a big hike! Feel free to contact me so we can talk about your dogs needs and maybe meet beforehand! Currently working part time so I'm available for your pups! And I hike with my dog every day anyway. So let's get out and play! Like I said. I can take them out for playtime with my dog or their own solo time hiking. Or we can just hang out on the couch and cuddle!

“Raven watched our pup last minute and was very accommodating. Our dog gets very nervous being left with other people and warmed up to her quickly”

About: In addition to owning and devoting my time to pets for decades, I am a retired special education teacher with plenty of love and patience. As a teacher, I provided dog therapy in my classrooms for nine years. I have cared for cats and dogs of all ages, including puppies and elderly dogs with health concerns. I also have experience with chickens. I am retired from teaching, and have thoroughly enjoyed spending more time with animals, while also providing a much needed service to pet owners. As a pet sitter, I offer in home pet care while families are away, and usually do only one job at a time so I can dedicate myself to your loved ones! I am open to pet sitting most days of the week and have had both short and long term pet sitting experience. I offer pet sitting in your home, which means your pets do not need to leave their environment or routine while you are away. I will follow any directions to a T!

About: I grew up loving animals! I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages 🐾 I have had friends, family, neighbors and new people in my life trust and rely on me to take care of their fur babies while they’re away. My main goal is to let the animals (and their family) know they are loved and taken care of! I do have a beautiful daughter! I want to make sure you’re aware that if I do any over night stay’s with your fur babies, my daughter will need to join us. She is very gentle and loves animals! Her first word was “cat!” I can be available whenever you need me! My schedule is extremely flexible and I’d be more than happy to do whatever I need to do to take care of your fur family! Let me know what your animals are most comfortable with and I will do everything I can to make them happy and loved! I can bathe them, take them for walks, play with them with their favorite toys, give them their favorite treats and make sure they have their daily essentials!

About: I have grown up with dogs of my own and lived with many animals of all sizes. I love dogs but I travel a lot and cannot have my own, unfortunately. I try to get my fix taking care of other dogs when I can! I'm a big trail runner, I take my parents dog whenever I can. He is a big river/water dog so I love taking dogs on trails with water access. I always carry plenty of water and snacks for myself and the pup. I love dogs that are high energy and need to get lots of exercise, I'll tucker them out. I can take dogs on long hikes, runs, or even quick walks. I work evenings bar tending and am available most days before 4pm. I prefer to have one dog at a time so they get proper care and I can keep track of them, especially if they are good unleashed on trails. I am flexible and love to house sit as well so I can stay where the dog is comfortable. I like to have fun with the pups! This is for my own enjoyment and your convenience!

“Azul took care of my GSP Tyoga while we were in Crested Butte. It was by far the best Rover experience we have had and I could not recommend her more. Tyoga and I are very bonded and he usually hates being away from me, but with Azul he was extremely happy - and that made me happy!!! You may want to think about taking a trip to Crested Butte just for your dog's sake - he or she will thank you.”

“Brianna was wonderful with our cat, gave her lots of attention and made sure to keep us up to date. She was also kind enough to bring in some packages and water our Xmas tree!”

About: I’m a 6’4” 200lbs+ man so I’m great with all sizes of dogs including huge. I’m a jogger so if your dogs like to run also we’ll be a great match. I love all animals and I’ve had many pets over the years. I’ve had everything from hamsters to fish tanks. Cats, dogs, bunnies, snakes and even goats. I’m experienced with old dogs and puppies and am happy to walk or take care of either. I currently am working part time at my own discretion so I have an open schedule basically. It changes week to week but it’s flexible and I would be available any point in the day on week days and on weekends. I live in a very quit rural neighborhood with amazing beach and woods walks. I don’t have any pets personally at the moment and I don’t a fenced yard. I was originally thinking I would just walk dogs and do drop in visits but if you’re in a bind I can dog sit here. My aunt visits me regularly and she always brings her dog here. They both absolutely love here too. It’s safe and beautiful here but ideally I would rather not board dogs here.

About: With over 20 years of experience caring for cats, I have understand their unique personalities, needs, and behaviors. I’m experienced in providing loving, attentive care, including feeding, playtime, companionship, litter box care, and maintaining their normal routines. I understand that every cat is different, and I take the time to build trust and create a calm, comfortable environment where they feel safe and cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of a wide variety of animals for as long as I can remember. I’m an animal enthusiast that will adore your furbaby! I’m available for walks and check-in in the mornings everyday except Saturday and Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. I teach music lessons M,W,F evenings and Saturday mornings, so I’ll have plenty of time to help you with your pets! I will be sure to meet with you and check the best way to care for your animal. Long walks or frequent check-ins, I got you taken care of! Just let me know how I can help you and your furry friend!

“Azul was amazing with my dog and my cat. She was responsive, sent pictures and went about and beyond to make sure they were both happy. I would absolutely use her again!”

Alex O.

“Angela was everything you could ever want from a pet sitter and will be my first choice going forward. Leaving your pets with someone you do not know can be nerve racking but Angela made the whole process extremely easy. She was great at communicating, provided daily updates with pictures, and was a pleasure to deal with from our initial visit to the end of the pet sitting. She looked after both my cats for over a week and I would not hesitate to book her for even longer periods. Highly recommended!”

Mayco B.

“Kelsey was an amazing cat sitter. She provided daily updates. I would book her again.”

Bonnie S.

“Cora was great!”

Neda E.

“Brenda was very accommodating on short notice and super friendly! So happy that Winter was well taken care of :) Would definitely use her again!”

Danielle J.

“Jess's place is off the beaten path and a little hard to find, but it is surrounded by wide-open spaces, which Fred likes. Jess was enthusiastic about Corgies and her Corgi and Fred had a good time.”

Leslie K.

“I think Sloane had a great time. They were all so sweet and were flexible with drop off/pick up.”

“Emma was awesome! She took great care of our 20 week old puppy and sent us many fun pictures throughout the day. I’m pretty sure our pup made a new best friend. Emma was communicative and very accommodating. We were in town for vacation but will definitely be using her again next time we’re here.”

About: Hi, I'm Brianna! I've owned and taken care of dogs (large and small), cats & other small domestic animals for as long as I can remember. I've always loved and connected with animals & felt drawn to caring for them. My goal is to ensure your animals are happy and healthy, as I treat them all as my own, & that you will also have the peace of mind that they are in good hands. I have personally raised a puppy, & have lots of experience with a wide variety of dogs, including seniors, special needs & larger breeds. I know that above all else, exercise & human companionship are some of the most important elements to ensure a happy, healthy pup and I am happy to be able to provide that service! We live on a large fenced-in property (14 acres of mostly fields), so your pup will have plenty of room to roam & play! I offer daily walks/runs as well, whatever it takes to meet your dog's exercise needs. I love hosting multiple pups & providing daily updates with lots of pictures! I do have 2 sweet pups and a kiddo of my own, so getting along well with other dogs & children is a must. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies :) I currently have a completely open and flexible schedule as I am a former stay-at-home mom .. so working around your schedule and your animals' needs will not be an issue at all! As I have experience with a wide variety of dogs, safety is number one. I will always prioritize safety above all else to ensure that your animal is healthy & happy in my care! I also have lots of experience hosting multiple dogs of varying ages, energy levels & personalities, so I am very aware of all the doggie dynamics to ensure a positive, fun experience for all :)

About: I am based in Carbondale, CO. I am currently pet/house sitting full time throughout the summer and fall so I'm able to provide a high level of care for pets and homes throughout the valley! **UPCOMING HOLIDAY AVAILABILITY** THANKSGIVING Over thanksgiving (11/25-29) I will be camping in Southern Utah with my sister and her dog friendly labradoodle. I have a large truck camper that I will be staying in. If you have 1-2 dogs that need care during that time, I can bring them with me, so long as they are up for hikes and are friendly with other dogs. CHRISTMAS & NEW YEARS 12/23-25 I will be in the front range at my sister's house to celebrate Christmas. She has a friendly labradoodle. I'm open to taking 1-2 dogs with me to stay there as long as they are friendly with other dogs. 12/26-1/1: HEAVILY DISCOUNTED RATE FOR THE FOLLOWING ACCOMODATIONS: My parents and sister will then be visiting me in Carbondale area for the remainder of the holiday since I will have to be available for ski instructing during the peak season. If you need house sitting during those dates, I can do that, but would need to request my sister's labradoodle and 3 adults (my sister and my mom and dad) be allowed to stay there as well. Though I may have to work during a portion of those dates, my family is off of work so there would be minimal times that your pets would be unattended. Feel free to send a request and we can discuss in more details (I will adjust to the lower rates after we discuss). I will be part time ski instructing at Snowmass this winter so I still have a high level of availability throughout Dec-Apr as well. 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 more than happy to take them on walks, hikes, to dog parks, and out for 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 - I have a truck camper (converted from a former ambulance) as my main vehicle. If there is any concern of me parking it on your property for house sitting or other services, let me know and I can park it elsewhere. It is reliable, 4WD and does super well on winter roads, so if you're up a dirt road, I have no concerns about being able to get there. If you have any questions about it, don't hesitate to ask! I currently am full time pet sitting for the summer and fall. I am very attentive and love morning, midday, and evening outings for fetch, dog park hangs, hikes, and walks. I can be available throughout the day full-time. After December, I will be part-time ski instructing for Snowmass. I am still available for all the same services but will need to be gone for a longer portion of the day if I'm working that day. I don't anticipate that it would be longer than 6-8hrs depending on how far away the sit is. A note on boarding - this is if you need overnight care for your pet or pets at MY home. House sitting is overnight care at your home or accomodations, sometimes I know that gets a little confusing. I much prefer house sitting in your home as I find that pets are much more happy in their own familiar environment with the all their comforts that they're accustomed to. If you need boarding outside of your home I can discuss a couple of options with you depending on the temperment of your pet and the length of the request. I will always be up front and transparent if I'm able to accommodate the request. 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. I always make sure we are on the same page about your needs and expectations and that I am 100% available and able to commit. Because of this, I have never cancelled on a client after a booking is confirmed.
