“Sandi did a great job taking care of my German Shepard over the 5 days that I was on vacation. She made sure to send pictures everyday for which I am very appreciative of. I'll definitely be coming back to Sandi to have her watch my baby next time I leave town.”


About: I have taken care of animals pretty much my whole life! Loving on animals is a passion of mine. I probably get as much out of it as they do! I am willing to pick up and drop off your pet, administer any medications they may need and provide them with a relaxing and stress-free experience. I have a large fenced in yard that they can run all over. I also have a 2 year old pup that loves to play! We can make field trips to the dog park for some socialization too! Whether it’s just drop-in, walk or over night I would love to be able to play and interact with your pet! They will receive genuine love and care while they are with me! I have 3 cats that are indoor/outdoor. Although they have a retreat they can go to when new animals are in the home, your animal MUST get along with them. This is a non-negotiable for our family. I work full-time during the week and can check in on your animal during the day while I am away. I am home during the weekends all day. I have a large fenced yard that your pets will be able to run around in and get all their wiggles out. Only two steps into my house and two steps out. There is access to water inside as well as outside.

“Samatha was amazing! She fed Winter on schedule and didn’t miss any meals. She texted me each day with an update and sent a pic of Winter with it. I really appreciated that. My house was left nice and clean. It was raining and my backyard can get muddy so she was wiping my dogs feet. Winter had an accident on her bed so Samantha washed her bed for her. She was really great so I’d recommend her to everyone! She is a really sweet person!”

I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their home environment, and I treat every home with respect and care while owners are away. My career is very flexible allowing freedom to live a nomadic life. I travel for work, but my home is in the San Juan Mountains. My scheduling is usually pretty flexible. Please reach out to further discuss availability. As I offer in home services and dog walking only. I will give your pets love and care in the environments that they are comfortable in. I will listen to and honor any of the owner’s requests as to the care of their furry family members. Your home and pets will be taken care of as if they were my own.

About: I love my own cats, dogs and reptiles of all ages in my household! I will absolutely love your animals as our own 💕💕 I have been in Montrose for 8 years.

I have a fenced yard with plenty of room to run around. My cats and dogs are friendly and vaccinated. My cats are fixed, our male dogs are not. One of my cats is blind.

“I see I forgot to leave a review- i have been ill and Jennifer was so amazing in that she came over and house sat my two pups at the time. I don’t think she slept much, after the pandemic we were all shy of strangers and Jennifer was calm and kind. Very present and trustworthy.”


“Dario is a perfect match for our Husky, Boris. I needed to travel overnight for work and had not left Boris overnight unattended before. I was having a difficult time to find someone that wanted to go on long walks. Dario walked Boris 7 miles the first day and 4 miles the morning before I returned, WOW! He sent pictures, watered plants and spent the night on the daybed cuddling with our dog. I am so glad we met him and will use him next time we travel. Thank you!”


“Ashley went above and beyond watching my elderly pup for the weekend taking her on long walks and spending tons of time with her outside. She sent tons of photos and kept me updated too. I highly recommend! Thank you so much!”
