Den
Pitkin County, Colorado
Mature, Successful Professional Caring for Your Pets & Home as My Own
Having Den and Annie stay with Thor, Tulsi, Garnet and Moonshadow was the best peace of mind I could have asked for. Not only was I able to focus on my work I had the ability to sleep while I was away without the worry that the fur-kids were having a challenge with me being gone. Den is an excellent communicator, provided photos and great commentary of the events on a daily basis. He is clean, organized and I came back to my home in perfect order! The fur-kids were happy and Tulsi did not display any signs of separation anxiety!! What an amazing sit! Annie is sweet and well mannered. She gets along with all fur friends without any challenges. I can’t express my appreciation to Den and Annie for providing the companionship that the gang needed while I was away on work. Den and Annie are welcome back to our place anytime. Our door is open and the fur kids welcome you both with open paws!
Kevin
Pitkin County, 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.
Angela
Pitkin County, Colorado
Super responsible and caring animal lover!
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.
Ian
Pitkin County, 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
Pitkin County, 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.
Donna
Pitkin County, Colorado
Former B&B owners and pet lovers. Let us take care while you enjoy vacation.
Though only a short house sit we were very happy with how Maia and the house were looked after. Lovely to meet Donna and Felix, they made the most of their time for being in Glasgow.
Tamira
Pitkin County, 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!
Melanie
Pitkin County, 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
Pitkin County, 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!!
Susan
Pitkin County, Colorado
Avid cyclist
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!!
Reviews from Pet Owners
Hannah
Tina was a fantastic house/pet sitter for my cat Trixie - I can’t recommend her enough! She was very communicative and also self sufficient and I felt completely at peace with Trixie in her care. She took it upon herself to water my plants and also trimmed Trixie’s nails, which I always struggle with! She provided perfect company for Trixie, playing with her, brushing her, loving her and giving her daily medicine. She also left my apartment in perfect condition. I would gladly have Tina pet sit again. A 10/10 experience.
Jennifer
Natalie and Christian were dream pet sitters while we were out of the country for 2.5 weeks. From start to finish, they were reliable and professional, with excellent communication. They had took great care of our dog and chickens and left the house and car in great shape. Plus, they’re just a really sweet young couple. We’d highly recommend them as house sitters.
Elizabeth
Leslie and Kyle set the bar for all other pet sitters! On the first morning of their stay my cat got out due to a faulty window in my apartment and they handled the situation so well. Leslie sent a text explaining what happened and that my cat had returned safely and she was so calm about the whole thing that it put me at ease for the rest of my trip. Kyle went above and beyond and not only fixed the window screen (he actually fixed two screens during their stay!) but also made sure the window was secure until maintenance could come and fix the issue. Their go with the flow attitude was amazing. I would 100% have them sit for me again! I can not recommend them enough. You would be lucky to have Leslie and Kyle as your sitters :)

I had the pleasure of having Tracey and her two children as house sitters, and I can't praise them enough for the incredible job they did. From the moment they stepped into our home, it was evident that they were dedicated, caring, and attentive to every detail. First and foremost, Tracey's approach to caring for our house and our beloved pets was nothing short of excellent. She has an innate ability to connect with animals, and it was clear from the daily updates and photos that our pets were happy and thoroughly pampered. The house was kept in immaculate condition, and they treated it with the utmost respect as if it was their own. Moreover, Tracey demonstrated remarkable responsibility and initiative when our AC system unexpectedly broke down. Without hesitation, she arranged for an HVAC company to come and fix the issue, taking time from her day to ensure our home was taken care of. Her willingness to front the repair costs until I could reimburse her was an act of kindness and trust that you rarely see. Tracey and her children's thoughtfulness and thoroughness provided me with peace of mind during my time away, which is priceless. I returned to a home that was just as I left it, if not better. Their stay was characterized by an extraordinary level of care and I was particularly impressed by how they left the house in perfect condition, with happy pets to welcome me back. I wholeheartedly recommend Tracey to any future hosts. Her reliability, compassion, and the ability to handle unexpected situations with grace are commendable. I would welcome Tracey and her children back to house sit in a heartbeat – they are exactly the kind of house sitters that one hopes for on this site! Thank you, Tracey, for everything. You and your children are welcome back anytime!

Angie and her husband Joe were a great fit for our house and pet sitting needs! They kept in communication with us before our vacation started, and were able to arrive a little early so we could walk them through how various systems worked and where controls were located. Our dog bonded with Angie very quickly and I think he was hoping she would stay after we returned home :) We got regular updates and pet photos while we were traveling. Although we were out of cell phone range for several days, we never had a doubt that things at home would be just fine while they were there! They were also very flexible and understanding. Due to our flight schedule we arrived home in the middle of the night. Angie was able to feed and walk our dog, clean up and leave in the morning without waking us up! The house was left clean, the garden was thriving and our pup was happy. We are happy, and would be happy to have them back again as sitters anytime.

Exceptional Pet Sitters - Highly Recommend Diedre and Keith! I am thrilled to leave a glowing review for our trusted house and pet sitters, Diedre and Keith. They took exceptional care of our long-haired cat, Molly, and our home during our absence. Everything went incredibly smoothly, and their communication was top-notch. Dierdre and Keith provided regular updates, including delightful pictures of Molly, which put our minds at ease while we were away. Upon our return, it was evident that Molly had been well cared for and was content. The genuine love and understanding Diedre and Keith have for both dogs and cats was apparent in their interactions with Molly, and it was clear that they had made her feel comfortable and secure in their care. Their friendly and professional demeanor made the entire experience truly enjoyable. In addition to taking great care of our beloved pet, Diedre and Keith ensured that our home was in excellent condition upon our return. They even went the extra mile by informing us about the leftovers they left in the fridge, which was a thoughtful gesture. I wholeheartedly recommend Diedre and Keith as exceptional pet and house sitters. Their attentive and caring approach, coupled with their expertise, make them a perfect choice for anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy sitters. Don't hesitate to entrust your home and pets to this fantastic duo!

I could not have asked for a better first time sitter experience! Terry & Vinnie were absolutely wonderful people. They took stellar care of my beloved pets and my home. Their communication with me was enough that I felt perfectly at ease during my time away and in turn, they were super responsive if I contacted them. My pets were relaxed and happy when I returned!

David was a super interesting guy, we had good conversation. My place was clean, my cat was happy...he communicated with me.. David is a great house and pet sitter . He is very gentle, which my cat enjoys.

Gowri was very patient and caring with Irisi who got sick the day before I left. I cannot commend her enough for how she rose to the occasion and took care of my baby. She even pick up meds from the vet. My cat, Squinty, was very comfortable with her to jump in bed and wake her up early in the morning (as he would with me). I am not aware of him doing that to other sitters that have stayed at my place. I would give her 6 stars for Pet care if I can! She updated me with Irisi's condition which really help ease my mind, knowing someone looking after my furry really cared. I would certainly have her back again!

Amazing experience! Five stars all the way... Nikki was kind enough to watch our two cats Thomas and Toby while were away on our honeymoon. From the very beginning she made us feel comfortable with clear communication and quick replies. Since she was local in Atlanta we got to meet her ahead of time and hand off keys before we left. While we were away she sent pictures of our little buds having fun and being themselves, so we always knew they were ok. She always showed up exactly when she said she would from pickup to dropoff and it was so incredible to know they were in good hands, and we never had to worry. They love being around people so for her to have been able to stay with them and love on them regularly we came home and could immediately tell both Thomas and Toby felt great as they were completely comfortable. Much much different than when we leave even for a few days and have a pet sitter stop by and feed them. She asked all the necessary questions in advance, so she didn't have to email or ask anything while we were away. She even took the time to make sure everything was neat and tidy, prepped the sheets to be changed, and was unbelievably sweet to get us a wedding gift we both love. Nikki we can't thank you enough for taking care of our cats, and we would only be so lucky if you stuck around town! :)
