Meet Your Sitter Before You Schedule
We believe that you and your pet should feel as comfortable as possible with your sitter before our scheduled service takes place. That’s why we offer a free in-home consultation before your first service begins. This gives everyone a chance to get to know each other and make sure that this is a good fit.
You’ll Get The Same Trusted Sitter Every Time
When you schedule a service with us, we’ll partner you with a primary and back-up pet sitter based on your needs and schedule. You’ll have the chance to meet these nearby sitters and once you approve of them, we’ll assign them to your account. Any time you schedule services thereafter, you’ll receive care from your primary or back-up sitter. This way you know your pet is getting care from someone you (and they) know, trust, and like every time.

Meet Our Sitters
Kelly
Longmont: Hi, I’m Kelly and I love animals! I’m originally from Maryland, but now call Longmont home. My passion for animals was instilled early on. For as long as I can remember, I have expressed my love for animals through my art. I am now a recognized wildlife artist showing in galleries and national museum exhibitions. Dogs have always been in my life. I cannot imagine not having a dog to share life with. They’ve been my best companions. Currently, I have two beloved dogs of my own – a Boxer and a Bully mix – both rescues from Ho-Bo Care Boxer Rescue. Whenever I can, I volunteer with Ho-Bo Care Boxer Rescue; I help with picking up dogs from transport, overnighting, and fostering dogs. It’s been a rewarding experience to see some of the dogs I’ve helped go on to loving homes. I consider pets like family and will treat your pets like family as well.
Stacey
Longmont: Hi my name is Stacey. Like many, my love of pets goes back to my childhood. I was raised on a farm in Kansas with all kinds of pets. In a room full of people, I’m the one that gets down on the floor and talk to the dogs! I have a passion for rescue dogs and providing loving homes for elderly pets but I have experience caring for pets in all stages of life, health, and wellness. Every pet is special in their own way and deserves unadulterated love and acceptance. I form strong connections to any animals that are a part of my life and look forward to doing the same with yours. Special services: Elderly pets “Stacey is amazing. Our dogs look so forward to seeing her. She loves them like her own. We love her sense of humor, anecdotes and pictures! We feel so fortunate to have found her and Fetch!” Judy S. Longmont, CO
Lyndsey
Boulder: Hi pet owners! I’m Lyndsey and I am a Senior at CU Boulder studying Architecture. I began caring for animals at a young age. I grew up in Michigan with two sassy corgis, a hedgehog, and many horses and cows. Being around animals always brightens my day. In my free time I love to hike, spend time with friends and paint! I cannot wait for the day I am able to adopt an animal of my own after college. In the meantime, I look forward to meeting you and your pets soon!
Aarika
Longmont: Hello, I am Aarika (pronounced like Erika) Capra and I have been a pet lover my whole life. I lived on a farm as a small child and that really instilled my love of animals. My parents tell me I was always bringing animals home, from kitties to insects! I have a cat (Fluffer) and a dog (Sunny) who bring me so much joy. Our family has also fostered puppies for a local dog rescue. We cared for the puppies and their medical needs until they were adopted. I have a bachelor’s degree in Biology and a master’s degree in Education. I teach high school science with an emphasis in medical care. I love to be outdoors. Hiking, paddling, and biking are some of my favorite activities. I really look forward to meeting and caring for your pet!
Ariana
Boulder, Erie: PET FIRST AID & CPR CERTIFIED Hi! I’m Ariana, an energy worker who also loves working with animals! I have a pooch of my own who is getting old now but he’s still super fun. I love meeting new furry friends and seeing how I can be of assistance to them in any way possible! I can’t wait to meet your precious animals and get to be a part of their lives bringing them joy. “Very friendly and caring staff that left detailed photo/journal entries every visit for both pets. Felt like they were deeply cared for and well taken care of while I was away. Would recommend them to anyone in need of a trusted pet sitter!!” Autumn E. Louisville, CO “Ariana is always on time and does a wonderful job with Daisy, who isn’t an easy dog. She’s a wild child. I like the pictures and comments on how the walks went.” Pam A. Boulder, CO
Andrew
Broomfield, Boulder, Superior: PET FIRST AID & CPR CERTIFIED Hello pet parents, my name is Andrew. I’m a retired engineer and have recently taking up pet sitting as my new retirement vocation. I love dogs and exploring the local trails with them, and I absolutely love cats having owned them since 1993. Pet sitting is the best of both worlds combining two of my biggest passions, pets and exercise! I look forward to getting to know you and your pets and providing them with excellent loving care. Special services: Injections, elderly cats. “Fetch! is great! It is easy to use the app to book the services. I appreciate that I receive pictures and a summary of what occurred during each service with my cat and how she is doing while I am on vacation. I was out of the country during the recent extreme cold spell and it was very comforting to be able to text Andrew and ask him to take some steps in my home such as opening up cabinets, turning on water to drip with the faucets, etc. so that my pipes did not freeze. All of this helped to ensure that I could relax on my vacation.” Natalie M. Broomfield, CO
Sabine
Boulder: Hi, I’m Sabine, a recent psychology grad from CU Boulder. My whole life, I have had dogs and other animals as part of my family. I love animals so much that I used to volunteer at the Humane Society in Longmont and in Boulder for 5 years, which was an amazing experience. I’m excited to be able to work with animals more, and I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! “The recommendation of Fetch came to me from Alpine Animal Hospital for Animals – my trusted source for all things ‘dog’ in our life. From start to my return home, every aspect of the care of my eight year old Golden was exactly what I had asked of them. The daily entries were fun. She was well cared for and had lots of variety in her outdoor time, which is important for her happiness and mine. Communication was prompt, clear and spot on with regard to the level of understanding. I will call on them again for certain.” B.J.R. Boulder, CO
Jett
Longmont: Legendary dog walker of La Cruz De Huanacaxtle Mexico Winter of 2017. Really! I spent five months in Mexico and over the winter in this sleepy fishing village’s marina that fills up with travelers escaping the cold. One dog and houseboat care gig led to another and voila! I made a name for myself as the go to dog walker and pet sitter. This is my second time living in the front range, last time I worked for a family-owned overnight stay location for medium to large dogs outside of Boulder. It was wonderful and I loved it! I hope I have the opportunity to care for your pet soon and shower them with LOVE and attention.

When I am not working, my hobbies consist of gardening, cooking, watching movies, and just enjoying time and conversation with both my husband and our friends.

I am experienced in taking care of sick animals, administering meds, and giving themlots of love! My dog Maggie, who has since passed, was a trained pet therapy dog, and we would visit people in multiple area hospitals. My goal is to give pet owners the peace of mind that their animals will be cared for the same way I’d want someone to take care of my own. Everyone jokes that my dogs Dukeand Bode are my favorite children. I look forward to meeting you and your pets.“We were nervous to leave our new 9 week old puppy at home, but Kelly kept us well informed and went above and beyond to keep us comfortable and provide the best care for our fur babies. The scheduling, meet and greet process, and app are all comprehensive and easy to use. I would highly recommend Kelly and the Fetch team!” Melanie B, Broomfield,
Meg
Boulder, Lafayette, Louisville, Superior: Hello – Boulder, Lafayette, Louisville, Superior: Hello – I’m Meg! I’ve been pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors since I learned to ride a bike. Born into a Missouri home of five cats and raised alongside a collie loyal as Lassie herself, I’ve had a passion for animals that’s led me to roles such as veterinary technician and adoption volunteer. I’ve been spotted rescuing wild birds and rodents in multiple states, most recently running a crow a mile down Broadway to transport him to a rehabilitation sanctuary, and I will show the same dedication to your furry, feathered, or scaled family members! Currently I’m the proud parent of Morella (Mo) and Vincent (V), my two cats, I’m also studying at UC Boulder for my PhD in biological anthropology. Don’t be surprised if your pet learns how to identify a few bones after we’ve spent some time together!
Sharon
Broomfield, Erie, Lafayette: Hi, my name is Sharon. I have lived in Colorado for 20+ yrs but grew up on the border between Nebraska and Iowa. We always had dogs when I was growing up and I loved their loyalty. We would spend our entire summers in Iowa at my aunt and uncle’s farm where they always had kitties! Of course, I could never leave them alone! We also had a Bee Bee parrot growing up that was very tame from our handling it all the time, we even taught it some tricks. I currently have a Yorkie named Marlow and she is my princess! I love interacting with animals and will make sure your pets are well cared for in the manner they are used to. Looking forward to meeting you and pets and providing them with loving care.
