About Kenzie

5 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
Hi, there! My name is Kenzie Rockey and I am a freshman at the University of Colorado studying Psychology and Journalism.

-I joined DogVacay because I love caring for animals- especially dogs! I have spent many fun-filled hours volunteering at the Humane Society of Boulder and PAWS Animal Shelter in Ada, Oklahoma. I also have three pets of my own, two dogs and a cat, so I have learned a lot about the ins and outs of caring for animals. I can absolutely meet all of your needs- house-sitting, mail-collecting, plant-watering, whatever they may be!

-During my stay with your pet, you can expect daily walks or hikes, plenty of cuddles, and of course, updates for your family! My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable and safe while your family is away.

-My calendar is updated at least once a week, so if you have questions about my availability, please don't hesitate to contact me! I look forward to meeting you and your pets. Thanks! :)

**UPDATE: I will be unavailable to sit in Boulder from May 9th through September 1st. During this time, I will be in Oklahoma. Thank you for your patience, and enjoy your summer!**

About Hailey

10 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
My name is Hailey Thompson I am 22 years old. I am currently in college but about to graduate. I love being outside and bringing dogs with me. I also enjoy playing with them inside and cuddling. My family has 2 golden retrievers and a border collie and I love taking them to the store with me or to run errands. I have stayed with some family friend's dogs overnight where I fed them in the morning and evening and came back to check on them throughout the day. I am open to walking/sitting dogs that are very relaxed and that get along well with other dogs and likes people and their company. I am a smaller sized person so I am not looking to watch huge dogs or aggressive dogs. One of my family's dogs has separation anxiety so I am familiar with that condition and how to comfort dogs that have anxiety. Additionally, I am willing to work with dogs that are obedient and not extremely hyper. Besides that though I love animals and I enjoy being around them. I love taking them to the park and throwing a ball around or going for a job with them. I am looking for some part time work.

Thanks so much for reading my page! Can't wait to hear from you!

About Stephanie

3 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
**About me**
I am an owner of three amazing chihuahuas. They are currently living in Vegas with my mom while I'm in college. I currently live on campus but if you ever need me to pet sit during the day I can totally do it. They'd have so much fun walking around campus, getting exercise and having a total blast. And if you ever need me to come to your house I have my car with me and would be glad to pet sit there as well. I love all animals and can't wait to meet your amazing pets!

**About my home/services**
I live in Farrand which is in the middle of all the dorms. I offer are pretty much anything except bathing and anything that would require a real home (since I live in the dorms). You can always ask me to make sure that I am able to do what you are requiring and I'll will do my best to accommodate to your needs and wishes.

**About my neighborhood**
I live on campus so everyone is very nice and easy going and there are plenty of other dogs that are always walking with their owners through CU's beautiful campus.

**What to expect**
While I am pet sitting your dogs they will definitely enjoy some cuddle sessions. As well as throwing the ball back and forth or whatever type of toy your best friend loves to have around. For walks, its whatever pace your dog is use to. If long walks is their thing then they can count on the best long walk of their little doggie lives! I can always cater to whatever needs your pal has and make sure they have a blast/are loved while being away from their owner.

**Special rules or requests**
Just give me a weeks heads up that way I can make sure there's nothing conflicting with your needs! I don't have a breed preference or animal preference- all animals are amazing!

About Isabelle

11 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
I have always loved caring for animals! Growing up I had a bunny, two fish, a cat, two birds, and two dogs. I moved out to Colorado with my family at a younger age, and love the many opportunities the land gives to do with pets. Currently I have two dogs, a husky and a Jack Russel. They are both high energy dogs, so I am well equipped to handle that. I have volunteered at shelters in the past, and I am looking forward to adopting a cat down the line. I am a college student at CU Boulder currently, so my schedule is pretty clear for doing anything that your animal might need. I got my husky as a puppy, and I was responsible for training and caring for her as she grew up. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet for a vacation or a day, but I am a loving person who will watch over them the way they need to be!

Izzy was absolutely wonderful! We felt at ease when we first met her and our dog, Nell, loved her as well. Izzy stayed at our home to watch Nell and our cat while we were out of town. She texted us updates and photos and it warmed my heart to hear that Nell was curled up on the couch with her as she studied. I called one of her references and she clearly is well regarded for her loyalty, integrity, fun loving personality and, most importantly, her love of animals. I feel a sense of freedom knowing that the next time we leave town, we have Izzy available to care for our pets.

About Vanessa

5 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
My name is Vanessa Alejandro and I'm all about the fun! My office is in Downtown Boulder, but I work remotely, which means my times to walk/visit and to house sit your pet are very flexible! Because of my flexible schedule, I can give your pet quality time.

I am a very active person and enjoy spending time outside. I know all of the local parks and I often work from them. I use the hot spot on my phone, which means your dog will get to spend a lot of time outside.

As for walking and visits, I raised my cute puppy, Luigi, until he passed away earlier this year. I have owned reptiles, cats, birds, and dogs. I also ran an animal education non-profit which took animals around to schools and educating kids on science and animal conservation. I love animals and want to be the one that brings joy to your pet :)

About Faith

10 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
Hello! I am a college student and huge animal lover. I grew up with dogs, and have a lot of experience with all animals. I live in an apartment with plenty of space as well as large outdoor space right outside of my home. My main availability is during the holidays, as well as most weekends. A typical day with your pet would be filled with lots of snuggles and loves, as well as walks and playtime. My only restriction is that I have a very friendly cat. She has been around other animals her whole life, but it's important to me that your dog will be friendly with her. I quickly bond with almost any animal, so I guarantee to provide a loving and fun experience for your pup!

About Brianne

4 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
I am a current college student in Boulder, Colorado. I love pets, especially dogs. I grew up always owning at least one dog if not more. At a young age I learned to take care of my dogs. I've bathed my dogs, picked up after them, played with them, and show lots of love. I currently don't have any pets living with me but I do still have my dog back in my hometown. I've also had experience dog sitting for family friends which included overnight stay, walking the dog, feeding the dog, and giving oral medication. I currently live in a spacious apartment that has an open field right next to it as well as plenty walking paths. I'd love to help out and watch your dogs for you!

About Shannon

I absolutely love animals but sadly have none in my life right now, so would love to help out my fellow neighbors with dog and cat sitting when their pups and kitties (and any others in the animal kingdom) need some attention. I have no other pets so yours will get my full attention. I have a very flexible work schedule as a freelance medical writer that works from home, so I can be available anytime for short or long commitments. I also have no children or other dependents, so can stay at your house where your pet feels right at home. I have a car for fun excursions like hikes or trips to the park. I spent two years dogsitting in San Francisco and loved it, so can't wait to get to know your furry friend, and you, so please contact me with any interest or questions.

We're so lucky that Shannon was able to stay with Lily during our most recent trip. As soon as they met I felt confident that Lily would be in great hands. She sent updates that gave us extra peace of mind.
Shannon was a great sitter for my 11 year old pit bull and I will ABSOLUTELY be using her again. She stayed with him at my house for 3 nights and 4 days, and was very prompt with responding to any check-in texts I sent, which were a lot. The whole thing went very smoothly and my dog was so happy and calm when I got home, unlike most of the times I've left him with other sitters I've tried in the past—I know my dog better than anyone, and the fact that he was so mellow when I got home tells me he got a lot of love and attention while I was away. So the next time I book Shannon, I won't worry one bit because I know she does a great job. And that's priceless.

Second time booking with Shannon and am just thrilled. She took great care of my pup and sent great updates. Highly recommend!
Shannon took great care of our two dogs which is no small feat given that one is an over-energetic, 50-pound puppy and the other is a 11-year old grumpy old Lhasa apso. They immediately took to her and she kept them entertained over the three days we were gone. They were happy when we returned which is the seal of approval on Shannon's attention and care. We live in a busy downtown area and Shannon had no problem negotiating them on the busy sidewalks for walks and didn't mind having to walk a little further to find a patch of grass. We are grateful for her excellent care!

Shannon is wonderful! It was my first experience with dogvacay and after my first meet and greet with her, I knew that she was what I was looking for in a dog sitter. She immediately took to my dogs, and my dogs also loved her. She sent me daily pics /videos which made it easier on me. I most certainly will be using her again. Thanks Shannon!

Shannon is wonderful! We needed some last-minute dog care and she was able to come to our place twice a day to walk and feed our pooch. Step loved her and we will definitely be using her services again.

I have cared for my neighbors pets on multiple occasions and was the main caregiver for my own dog when I lived at home. I love pets, especially dogs and will take them on walks if I am pet sitting as well as be sure to play with them. I can follow directions related to your pets medications/feeding schedule/exercise schedule and will also care for your plants if I am house sitting.
