Kevin
Gilman, Colorado
Reliable, semi-retired, work from home, couple ready to take care of your pets.
Kevin & Brenda cared for our cat Ethel for a second time and it was a wonderful experience again. They were communicative and flexible (I accidentally posted the dates slightly incorrect!), took great care of our cat and were highly self sufficient. We returned home to a clean space and happy kitty. Would absolutely recommend and welcome them back.

This is the third time Nynne has petsit for me. My pets love her and she loves them back! She is a 5-star sitter in every way. I can't recommend her enough!
Ian
Gilman, Colorado
Fit, Reliable, Trusted, Semi-Retired British 'bobby' and Security Director
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.
J Mark
Gilman, Colorado
Writer/Photographer/Organic Farmer experienced w/ dogs, cats, chickens, & goats!
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.
Amelia
Gilman, Colorado
Active sitter for active pets!
Amelia was terrific! She came over early to meet the dogs and was very accommodating with our travel schedule which was delayed due to the big internet issues. The dogs were happy when we got home and we were grateful Amelia was with them.
Scott
Gilman, Colorado
Raised a guide dog puppy and love eager dogs.
Scott was wonderful taking care of our two dogs and two cats, and also our house! The dogs went on some great adventures and the cats were very comfortable at home. We stayed in touch regularly and Scott sent pictures of the animals which made us happy. When we returned, our pets were happy and the house was clean and tidy. Scott even fixed some lighting issues for us. We would highly recommend Scott! He takes this job very very seriously. We had total peace of mind while we were away and would ask Scott to sit again in a heartbeat!
Tamira
Gilman, Colorado
Outstanding Colorado references
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!
Tory
Gilman, Colorado
Outdoor enthusiast who loves animals and traveling
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!
Melanie
Gilman, Colorado
Friendly, reliable caregivers for your pets and house.
We had the pleasure of welcoming Melanie as our pet and house sitter, and our experience was mostly positive. Melanie proved to be very reliable from the outset, ensuring we had a video chat before her arrival to familiarize with our home and pets. Melanie and her partner were a delightful couple, leaving our home neat and tidy upon departure. The regular updates with pictures of our dog were a thoughtful touch that we greatly appreciated. However, there were a few areas where our instructions were not fully adhered to. Despite our clear guidance to take our dog for two walks daily, this routine was not consistently followed. Additionally, their time away from the house exceeded the three-hour maximum we had specified. Another point of concern was the mix-up with the pet food; dog food was inadvertently placed in the cat food container. While we understand mistakes can happen, a more upfront communication about this mix-up would have been preferred. Despite these issues, it was evident that Melanie treated our home with respect and care. We believe that with clearer communication, Melanie would be a good pet sitter for future assignments.
Laura
Gilman, Colorado
Very experienced pet sitter, animal behaviorist, & animal lover. 5 star reviews!
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!!
Reviews from Cat Owners
Joel
Hilary was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat - you would be so lucky to have her care for your pet and home. She took exceptional care of her and our home. Hilary played so much with her and took the best care. She was communicative, easy to coordinate with, and left everything super clean for us when we came back. Five stars is understating how extraordinary she was - we cannot recommend her enough!!
Claudia
Carole and Ron are excellent cat-sitters! They took very good care of my cat Lola and of my house. I came home to a happy cat and a very clean and tidy house. They sent me pictures of Lola and kept me updated, so that I had a very relaxed holiday. I very highly recommend them as cat- sitters and I would be thrilled if they would come back to sit for Lola again. Thank you so much!
Oliver
Susan and Miranda are amazing! I've had the pleasure of working with many sitters and they are truly exceptional. They were great at keeping in touch, sent lots of updates, asked good questions, really bonded with the cats, clearly very experienced working with animals and understanding their needs, and generally lovely to deal with. They were really patient putting up with a whole bunch of deliveries and even assembled a spare bed! They also left the place spotless with clean sheets on the bed. I'm pretty sure the cats loved Susan and Miranda more than us by the end of their stay! I'd highly recommend them to anyone and would love to have them stay again any time.
Patty
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
Nancy
Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.
Marcia
Denae and Burl were absolutely fabulous house/pet sitters for 4 weeks, Dec 2022- Jan 23. They are very friendly and intelligent, caring towards the animals (2 cats and 1 lively dog), and left our home clean and tidy. It all went very, very smoothly. It was a pleasure to deal with such nice people. We have invited them back whenever they want and hope the rest of their exploratory mission is a great success. I would be pleased to be contacted if anyone needs a further reference.
Clare
Karen was able to step in a sit for me on short notice after another sitter canceled. She was very thorough and communicative and I felt I had left my apartment and cats in good hands with her. I came home to a clean apartment and happy cats. I definitely recommend Karen as a sitter.
Francine
Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.
danica and ajit
Super nice sitters and extremely flexible. Really enjoyed their company and I only regret that I was too frazzled to chat with them more and get to know them! Kept the house super clean, pets loved them. Dog especially. Had a little problem with my new kitten not meshing well with the older cats (which was not too surprising since cats can be territorial). Pennee was very patient and gave me constant updates and tips. And the older cat was much more calm when I came home. Highly recommend and welcome back anytime!
JANELL
We've had many pet/house sitters over the last few years and Cat and Eugene will reside at the top of the list of favorites! From my first email with Cat I knew I liked her. She has all of the qualities of a good house and pet sitter: Reliable, a good listener, organized, flexible, caring, and honest. She and Eugene arrived exactly on time for our pre-sit visit, where they got to meet Maya and become familiarized with the house. It was a delight to visit with them and become comfortable knowing Maya would be in good hands. Our scheduled dates changed somewhat and they were extremely flexible and easy going about the changes. Upon our return home, we found the house pretty much in the exact condition we left it in. I can tell that great care was taken for Maya and for the house. Maya seemed to still be looking for them the next day, wandering around the house wondering where the other people who loved her went. I would recommend Cat and Eugene for anyone looking for reliable, kind, respectful, caring, tidy, and honest sitters. If I am lucky, I will get to have them back to sit for me again.
