Loving Pet Care

The same familiar face every visit — our pets like consistency and reliability as much as we do.

Trusted Home Care

Security checks, mail pickup, light rotation and plant watering while you're away.

Peace of Mind

Photo and text updates after every visit, so you always know how your pet is doing.

About Cozi Paws

Meet Jesica Golightly

Hello, South Fork! I'm Jesica Golightly, owner of Cozi Paws Pet & House Sitting. I bring 9 years of pet sitting experience, backed by 22 years working in the veterinary industry.

Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I'm passionate about providing dependable, loving care so you can have real peace of mind while you're away. Our pets are our family.

My husband and I have been proud residents of Rio Grande County since 2022, and I'm looking forward to serving the South Fork community and the surrounding areas. Whether your furry family members need a little extra love while you're traveling, or your home needs some care while you're gone, Cozi Paws is here to keep your pets comfortable, happy, and cared for in their own home.

  • Skilled at administering medications, including injections
  • Able to care for minor pet disorders
  • Every pet is treated like my own
  • Local — Rio Grande County resident

A little disclaimer: While I have extensive experience working in the veterinary industry, I am not a veterinarian or a doctor and do not provide veterinary or medical services.

"Our pets are our family."

That's not a slogan here — it's the reason every visit gets the same attention I'd give my own.

What We Do

Pet Sitting & House Sitting

Daily pet or house sitting visits, dog walking, and in-home overnight stays — built around your animals' normal routine, in the place they already feel safe.

Drop-in Visits

Scheduled AM, PM or mid-day drop-in visits for feeding, fresh water, litter, potty breaks, playtime and a thorough status update.

Dog Walking

Regular or one-off walks at a pace that suits your dog — from puppies to seniors.

Overnight Pet Sitting

Add-On Nail Trims

Nail trimming available only for scheduled visits.

House Sitting

Security Checks

Regular walk-throughs so an empty house never looks empty.

Light Rotation

Lights switched on a lived-in pattern rather than a timer's giveaway rhythm.

Mail & Package Pick-Up

Mail and deliveries collected and set safely inside, not stacked on the porch.

Plant Watering

Indoor and patio plants kept alive through long trips and dry mountain air.

Every booking includes

  • A free initial Meet & Greet
  • Meals and medication administration as prescribed
  • Play time and personal interaction for your pet
  • Photo and text at every visit

Rates depend on your pets, your schedule and where you are. Tell me what you need and I'll send a straight answer.
