Cat Sitting in Aspen

This is the 2nd time Helen has petsit for our kitties. We have had wonderful sitters, but Helen is still our favorite! She is very self sufficient and reliable! She stayed with us both times prior to our visit and is a pleasure to have has a house guest. She even entertained all of our very curious 7 year olds questions all evening long. She sent cute photos of our kitties with updates as much as we needed. Like the first sit, our home was the cleanest it's ever been when returning home from a trip! We and our kitties feel very fortunate to have found her!

Angela was marvelous! Not only was she flexible and was able to wait until I recovered from COVID, but she met us in advance of the sit dates, she knew just what to do to let my new trauma rescue pup warm up to her and she is a delight to get to know. Bumble was happy to see me come home, but I think he misses his cuddles from Angie. Both he and I are anxious for Angie to come back for a fun visit.

In addition to being a VERY TRUSTED house/pet sitter, he is the best "updater" I've ever had. He would take the dogs on outings and report some hilarious antics -- then he'd post cuddly stories, and fun stories. The dogs were extremely well taken care of. It is obvious he cares about his charges -- whether cats or dogs... or I'm assuming anything else. He's personable, funny, intelligent and you can pretty much trust him with your most valued possessions. When my finicky eater was worried about her, he asked if he could cook her some chicken so she'd eat. Even thought I wasn't worried about her -- he was. So he cooked her some yummy chicken, which she of course loved. I'm booking him a year in advance while I can still get on his calendar. Add to that, the fact that he left the house in immaculate shape. Oh did I mention -- while we were gone, it snowed 20 inches, and he shoveled the snow off our 23 three outside stairs in the front, the back stairs, and part of the back deck. WAY outside the call of duty.

Mark was great with our dog and communicated well with us before and throughout our trip. He let us know when our dog was approached by an aggressive dog and kept us updated about our dog's anxiety after the event so we could give advice on how to care for him. Mark also did a good job cleaning up before he left. We hope to have Mark sit for us again in the future.

Sara and Christophe took awesome care of Ricky. He was outdoors a lot with them and their sweet dog, Lily. And he was tired at night -- which we love. We got photos of good times; they asked all the right questions; and they left us a really good summary of things at the end. Our house was perfectly clean when we returned. We were so happy to have them here, and hope they'll be back!

Tory was a great house sitter for my boy Evis! She was communicative and sent photos of Elvis while I was away. Her calm demeanor was great for Elvis and she walked him every day. I felt that my home and pet were being taken care of very well while I was gone. I came home to my home as clean as when I left and really appreciated that. I would highly recommend Tory!

I just had an excellent experience with Bayardo as our sitter for a one week trip. He was very communicative prior to arriving and even showed up a little early so we had some extra time to go over the instructions. Micco is not a "simple" dog and Bayardo listened to my tips and I felt confident leaving. I received updates and photos daily and was able to relax and enjoy my trip :-) We returned to very relaxed pets and a very clean house. He followed all directions well and even fixed a broken handle on the microwave (thank you Bayardo!). We would love to have him back on a future sit anytime.

Laura was everything we asked for and could have wanted for Molly. After meeting Laura it was immediately obvious that she has a special love for animals . She brought with her Pipkin, a rescue from the streets of Mexico, and they both got on just great, as Laura had said would happen. I think that Molly felt like she was on a vacation too! Our house was spotless and everything looked great when we arrived home. We never had trouble communicating, and received lots of pictures at our request. She listened to our concerns about Molly’s special needs (don’t disturb when sleeping, etc) and made sure that Molly was always happy and fed . We would not hesitate to ask her to come back in the future. Thank you Laura for being a great pet sitter for our Molly!!

We loved having Sue stay in our home and care for our zoo! From the moment she reached out we felt good about moving forward with her - not only did she already have great reviews, her initial message to us was detailed and thoughtful. Sue was quick to respond to our messages and texts, arrived and left when she said she would, and left our place clean! All the animals were in good spirits when we returned. We would be glad to have Sue back at our home :) The only thing we would ask for next time is that Finn be left outside on the last day as we had a very long travel day and he can't be left inside for more than a few hours. We will clarify this for future sits. Thank you again, Sue!!

Amber was terrific. The house was cleaner than when we left, Lily obviously loved her and Aziz and she was good at texting. I would highly recommend as a pet and house sitter.
