“when Christina came back, so did we”
We used Christina’s previous pet sitting company for over 8 years, so when she sold it, we were genuinely happy for her—but definitely missed the incredible care she provided. Now that she’s back with a fresh, elevated approach, we couldn’t be more thrilled. The level of service, communication, and thoughtful touches she’s offering this time around are next-level. Our pets are once again in amazing hands—and honestly, it’s even better than before.

“gentle, reliable, and completely trustworthy”
I recently used this pet sitting service for my dog and elderly cat, and I couldn’t be happier. Christina took great care of my energetic pup, making sure he got plenty of playtime and walks. For my senior cat, she was gentle and attentive, handling her meds and keeping her comfy. The updates she sent kept me at ease while I was away. Totally recommend her—my furry crew was in great hands!
-Teja B.
“A standard of care that sets the bar”
We worked with Christina during the years she ran her previous pet sitting company, and the level of professionalism, consistency, and genuine care was unmatched. When we heard she was launching Denver Pet Sitting Company, it was an easy decision to return. Christina has a unique ability to blend warmth with absolute reliability. Every detail is handled with intention. From the pet updates to the thoughtful extras, the experience feels elevated in every way.
– Meredith
“they treated our pets—and home—like their own”
Leaving my pets has always been stressful, but this team has changed that completely. They are so attentive, caring, and professional. I love getting the visit updates and knowing my pets are safe and happy. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with their care!
