Cat Sitting in Crested Butte

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!

I say without exaggeration that Simone is the dream house sitter. She is a positive person with calming energy and a joyful sense of humor. I feel so lucky that Simone chose our house for our 10-day trip. She took her time getting to know me and my house before we left town, and she gave my cat all the space she needed to be comfortable with a new person in the house. I was very comfortable leaving town with her there and could tell Casper was too through the photos she sent. It was quite the surprise to return home to a weeded yard, flowers, coffee, granola, and a heartfelt card!

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.

Claire was a great house sitter for us! She was reliable and self-sufficient. Her communication with us was excellent. We didn’t have pets at the house during her house sit, but we do have a lot of potted plants on three levels of the house along with some shrubs planted around the main floor patio that we asked her to care for to the best of her ability. It appears that she did a very good job with the plants! We were glad to have her stay at our place!

Cynthia was a great sitter! She took amazing care of our dog and was very attentive to his needs. She was conscientious and communicative.

This is the second time that we've had Tami stay with our boys and once again, she did a wonderful job! She stayed for three weeks and took care of our two cats and our 6 year old yellow Lab, Koen. She made sure that he got his two outings every day, either walks or to the dog park. She was great in sending us lots of photos of them all and she always communicates if she has any issues or questions. She left the house in great shape too. I highly recommend Tami, as she will take great care of your pets and your house while you're gone. We're really hoping that she can come back again next summer!

‘”Exceptional” is the first word that comes to mind when reviewing Kate’s sit! I was very nervous about a stranger coming into my home and taking care of my beloved dogs for a whole month. As soon as I communicated with Kate all my anxieties disappeared. Her communication skills are excellent. She listened closely to my care instructions for the dogs, the house, and garden needs. She took care of the dogs and the house as if they were her own. My dogs Luke and Blue were very content and loved their daily walks/hikes. Her dog, Sturgill, is an easy-going, well-behaved dog. Sturgill became instant best buddies with Blue. Kate was responsive to various situations that arose. When one dog was sick, she immediately took care of the situation, taking the dog to my vet and making sure he received the proper care. I received daily communication, pictures of the dogs, and any pertinent news. When I returned home, I was so pleased to see how clean and tidy the house looked. There was food in the refrigerator, fresh flowers in a vase on the kitchen counter, and two well-adjusted, happy dogs. Kate is compassionate, trustworthy, and responsible. I couldn’t have asked for more. I can highly recommend Kate!

Cindy and Aaron were the perfect sitters. They were attentive, diligent, and took really good care of the animals and our home. We would readily recommend them to any other sitters and would gladly have them back to sit for us again. One of our cats, Ophelia, usually avoids strangers and can take a long time to warm up to new people. Lo and behold, on the first encounter with Cindy and Aaron, our usually fretful Ophelia was happily purring while Cindy petted her! Incredible! The house was left clean and tidy, and Cindy and Aaron went the extra mile for us by mowing our (large) lawn and tidying up our daughter's garden toys! They had stocked some groceries for our return and the bed linen and towels were laundered. Again, the perfect sitters! Thank you Cindy and Aaron.

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.

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.
