“Dean was great with our pups and sent updates throughout their stay. I would absolutely trust him again, I know they were very well cared for and had lots of walks and play time!”

“Sierra was ABSOLUTELY incredible! It was our wedding weekend and the dogs were in the wedding, and Sierra brought them up and down the gondola for us and coordinated with our friends to make it happen so we didn’t have to worry! She took them on hikes every day, she communicated with us multiple times a day with photos without us even asking, and she clearly understands dogs and treats them so well! We recommended Sierra to the wedding planner for future weddings and we are so happy we found her on Rover. She is the best dog sitter we have ever had, we are grateful we found her!!”

About: I have a soft spot for animals and love to play!! I've had pets my entire life and can help yours have a more active lifestyle. I'm willing to take long hikes on the trails, short walks around town, play ball at your place or just spend quality time with senior pets. I'm known for my integrity and dependability. I understand pets are like children to most people and will treat them as such.Great local references. I live and work full time in Ouray. I work at the Ouray Hot Springs Pool Friday through Monday 6am to 4pm. I can house/pet sit 7 days a week. When staying in someone's home I follow the lists/guidelines exactly as the homeowner wishes. I don't plan other things while sitting. Watching/ entertaining and caring for your home and pet is my job around the clock. I can provide a long list of local references if desired.
“Alaina was great! She was able to help us out while we were visiting Telluride with a last minute booking. She took our dog with her everywhere. Kya had a chill day and made some friends and had a lovely walk around Mountain Village. Thanks Alaina!!”
“Lee was wonderful with my older pup, Beau, and took such good care of him while I was away. Beau really likes Lee and came home happy and healthy. I am truly grateful for the service he provided. A+!”


“Bria is incredible! We hired her to help with a photoshoot (thanks again for helping us with an out of the box request!), and we are so thankful we did. It’s rare to get the chance to watch a sitter interact with your dog before trusting them, but Mia felt completely at ease with Bria from the moment they met. The constant wags said it all! Mia is a rescue and can be selective about the people she trusts, so seeing her instantly connect with Bria meant everything to us. Bria was calm, patient, and so kind with her. AND she knew exactly how to get her attention for the camera. I can’t recommend Bria highly enough. If you’re looking for someone in Telluride to care for your pup, look no further!”

“Molly took great care of my dog. They went on plenty of walks, hikes, and water trips. Very great communication and updates. Highly recommend using Molly to take great care of your dog while in Telluride!”

“Ava was great with Dixie and did an awesome job of staying in communication with me as she was watching her! She stepped up when I needed daycare last second which was super clutch. Would definitely book again :)”

About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs from small to big dogs and have stayed in a lot of homes and never had any issues. I'm working full time , so occasional drop ins to let them out and feed them when I can and then being able to stay the night will help my routine. I always try to keep my home clean and safe for all people and pets and leave my the house I'm staying in better than when I got there.
About: Hi! Available for (much of) Santa Cruz and Cochise Counties, including Ft Huachuca. I grew up on a farm, worked at a vet clinic, and have always had animals and pets when my life permitted. I have a passion for our furry "family members" as well as learning all different types of animal behavior. Dogs, cats, horses, cows, donkeys, fish, and even took care of a camel a time or two. My professional and athletic life has taken me around the world, and frankly, caring for pets of family, friends and neighbors throughout the years has still always been a most gratifying highlight! I have the patience and energy to match dogs of all temperaments, so let me know how I can support you and your family! If my profile is visible, it means I have plenty of time to help out with your furry family members, be it pet-sitting, walking, or just checking in on them. I have a highly-flexible schedule and a vehicle large enough to crate/transport if needed. As far as housesitting, depending on the proximity, would be flexible on either daily check-in and/or possibly overnights. Please reach out in advance to discuss. I live on a large ranch but do prefer to keep them leashed when walking (until I know they heel well AND to keep YOU more confident). I'm flexible on this based on consults with you. They would sleep indoors, and if you prefer, I could easily crate as well. Non-smoking home. You can bet I'll treat them as my own!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I grew up with a black lab at home and now my family has another black lab. I have done extensive training with her and I’m now able to take her into stores and other public indoor spaces that are dog friendly. I have a passion for training dogs. I care a lot about animal health and will respect whatever rules you hold for your dog or cat. I have experience with leash aggressive dogs, and dogs that are not good with other dogs. I have a calm and caring demeanor that dogs pick up on immediately. I cat sit for my best friends cat quite often. I’m currently working part time and have plenty of time to watch over pups and cats. I’m in school for herbalism and have night class 2x a week and day class every other Saturday. . I listen to the rules of the animals’ owner so they can keep up with their normal routine. They will be leashed if they are used to it, off leash if that’s what they’re used to. Animals are always the safest when you follow the same rules as their parents.

“Anna was wonderful with our Scout! It was her first time with our pup and she took such good care of him. He’s a reactive dog and she did a great job taking him out for his walk and then playing with him in our room. We will be scheduling with Anna again!”

“We were visiting Telluride and wanted to do a last minute hike. Haruko was outstanding in checking on our 14yr old dog at our hotel. Highly recommend if she’s available!”
“We enjoyed having Caleb look after our dogs! We set up dog sitting with him at our camper while we rode the Durango Train. Caleb set up a meeting the night before to meet the dogs and get information on what we needed from him. He was very friendly and made us feel comfortable leaving our fur babies in his care. He came by 2 times and walked them both times and fed them on the second visit. He communicated with us both times and sent pictures. We even needed the air conditioner turned on while he was there and he gladly took care of that. I would highly recommend Caleb for the care of your fur babies!”

“Sierra took great care of our two indoor-only kitties. We got daily updates and adorable photos, and the cats were happy and relaxed upon our return home. We hope to have Sierra back to watch our girls next time we're away.”

About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life. My golden retriever and rescue are my entire world and I couldn’t imagine life without them. Adventures, coffee shops and hikes are much more enjoyable with dogs. Your pet will get to join us every morning and evening on our daily walks and may even get to go for a stroll for a pupuccino. This is my third summer in Silverton, Colorado. I watch dogs for weddings, long hikes, events & more. :) I work remotely, so I am available all day. My dogs and I typically walk every morning and evening weather pending. We love to be outdoors anytime it’s nice. I have two very friendly dogs that would love to entertain your dog.

“As a first-time Rover, Dean set the bar very high! Communication throughout the day was great, and he was accommodating when our plans changed as the day went on. Thank you for everything, Dean!”

“We had a great experience with Sierra. Very happy puppy and easy to coordinate and work with Sierra. I would definitely use her again and recommend her Telluride k9 adventure school.”

“Anna was amazing with my 4 month old puppy! My pup got along with her dog very well. They went to the lake and played. Daisy came back very happy and tired. I would recommend her to anyone!”

About: Having had several dogs in my life and a dog training License I feel your animals would be at home with me as much as you I do not have a dog and I just enjoy dogs, attitude, company and motivation. They would allow me to care and earn some extra cash. They will be treated like a member of the family in your home. The parameters that you set up will be respected Either way, the animal will feel safe and at peace
“Lee was fantastic with our dogs. He greeted us in his driveway when we arrived, and made us instantly feel comfortable. I could tell he truly loves dogs and has a special connection with them. He kept us updated with texts and pictures with how much fun they were having. He took them on a walk and let them play in the river, which they love. They seemed so content and happy when I picked them up. I would highly recommend Lee, and would definitely leave my dogs with him again!”

“Wonderful experience with Dean! He went above and beyond my expectations! Dean spent extra time walking my dog and didn’t charge for it. I especially love that Dean is big and strong so I had no worries that my dog could pull away from him! Communication with Dean was easy and fast. I highly recommend him, and so does my dog!!”

“Anna is great! She walks my dog a few days a week and both my pup and I are really happy to have her. She’s very sweet and responsible with my dog and communicates thoroughly around her visits and I feel super comfortable leaving my fur baby on her watch which is really important to me. It's nothing but easy and positive to work with Anna!”


About: I'm a lifelong dog owner who has cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments from puppyhood to senior golden years. Looking forward to providing what your dog needs, whether that's cozy-calm companionship, playtime, and/or exploring on walks and hikes. Growing up I raised livestock, and I’m comfortable with a wide range of pet care needs, including administering medications, managing feeding routines, and paying close attention to behavior, safety, and comfort. Because I work on a school-year calendar, I have additional availability during the summer for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to provide dependable care, attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the week. Whether I’m caring for a dog in my home or in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, consistency, and comfort by following each dog’s usual routine and paying close attention to their behavior, energy level, and individual quirks.
“Martha was awesome! She showed up right on time, super easy to communicate with, and my dog absolutely loved her walk — came back happy, tired, and wagging her tail nonstop! She really went the extra mile to help out when I wasn’t feeling well. I can’t thank her enough for being so kind, thoughtful, and dependable. HIGHLY recommend!”

“It’s really nice to have this service in a small mountain town. We were able to go do the via Ferrata in Ouray because Alaina could walk our dog that day. She was a good communicator, professional, on time and sent updates so I knew Gunny was taken care of. Thank you so much Alaina. We will definitely reach out the next time we are in Telluride.”

“Caleb is a great dog walker if you’re visiting Ouray with your fur baby and will have to leave them for the day. He took great care of my pup and my parents dog as well. Sent us pictures, an update and even spent extra time with them. We’re so glad he was able to see our girls while we were out and about! Thanks Caleb!”

“Daisy and Max were so lucky to have Sierra looking out for them! She takes them on hikes, gives them lots of love, and her dog, Aspen, is super cute. Daisy and Aspen wore each other out. We feel super good leaving the pups with Sierra. We know they are in good hands!”
