Doggy Day Care Coal Creek

About: Your pet’s bespoke holiday, whilst you’re on holiday. Dog sitters for large breeds or elderly dogs at a 3 acre mountain property in an incredibly dog friendly environment . We take all dogs but specialize in older or extra large breeds. We work from home but are mainly on sabbatical working the land outdoors. Our clients’ dogs become family and look forward to meeting you! I’m on a work break working on my land and home fixes with my husband who just moved over from the UK. We are technology founders and a data scientist . I have 3/4 of an acre fences and 2.5 acres at 9500 ft at the end of a cul de sac with little vehicle traffic

“Ashley and Jacob and their pups were super sweet to my somewhat difficult puppy. Will hopefully subject them to him again when he's a little more mature. 😊🐶”

“Gus LOVED his time here. He got to play all day and every picture looked like the happiest guy on the block! It was also evident how much he loved it when I picked him up.. he didn’t want to leave! The only time he does that is with his foster mom. I would trust them any other time as they clearly made a paradise for my boy. Also their dog is so sweet and clearly a happy pup who loves to play. Last, great communication throughout the day!! Thank you again, Jessica!”

“We are very pleased to have found Chris. He was great with our senior dog who can have some anxiety with new places. Chris communicated well and is very kind. Zeke looks forward to his next visit!”

About: I’ve been in love with dogs since I can remember, and my favorite type of work/volunteering has always involved them. When I was 15 I started dog sitting for my family friend, I watched and walked little Johnny twice a week for almost 2 years while his mom was out doing errands. After that, I started volunteering at the LoveJoy Foundation, an animal rescue in California. I walked dogs, cleaned crates, and even helped with vaccinations once a week at adoption events! My time at LoveJoy was one of the most rewarding experiences ever, and it taught me how to work with different types of dogs and different behaviors, including neurodivergent and disabled pups. I have a family dog of my own, sweet Montana, who will always be my best friend no matter how far apart we are. Montana is a bit older now, so we mostly enjoy hanging out on the couch together, but in his prior years I loved taking him on hikes, to the dog beach, and really anywhere that I went. I also have a crested gecko named Axel! I’m currently a junior at CU Boulder, so I do have school during the week but only for about 2-3 hours each day, most of the time I’m home to care for a pup! I absolutely love being outside here in Boulder, it’s too beautiful not to be, so walks and adventures are plentiful! I have a large house for your pup to roam around, but if it’s preferred that he stays in a crate during the day I can accommodate that too! My yard isn’t fenced, but we would have a lot of outside time at the park and on walks exploring all corners of Boulder. I do have experience dog sitting in client’s homes, I know that some dogs are probably more comfortable staying in their own home!

“My pup stayed with Alison for the day. She was very loving to him and took him on a great hike. He loved her yard and her incredible friendly and patient dog!”

“Shanik and family are wonderful pet hosts. Mila loved to spend the days with them. She was happy to play ball outside in the snow for her first time. Shanik took care of Mila while my family and I were out skiing. Mila felt like she was home! Thank you!”

Mariana H.

“Tigran was easy to communicate with and was able to take care of Ruby on short notice. It seems she had a great time and was well taken care of!”

“Ice spent Christmas day with Morgan and had a great time. Made it all the way around CU South and slept for a long time afterwards. Would definitely use her again.”

About: My family has owned all kinds of animals throughout my life. We’ve had geckos, dogs, cats, fish, and more. My exposure to this wide array of animals makes me the perfect pet sitter for whatever your family needs. I am comfortable with overnight stays, feeding, bathing, drop in visits, and more. Anything your pet needs, I’m happy to provide! I am currently a student at CU Boulder missing my puppies back at home more than anything. I have a pretty light class schedule this semester and would love nothing more than to spend my extra time with your animals! I am located walking distance from Chautauqua park and go there almost daily. I’d love the company of your pups and have sooo much love waiting for them. I have a fenced side yard and love walking distance from many walking trails. If your pets were staying with me, I’d take them on walks daily and be home with them majority of the day to let them out when needed. I also have a large car, so vehicle transportation to/from your home is available. If staying at a clients home, I would make time for whatever is necessary for your pet. I am flexible to your needs and highly adaptable to what works best for you and your pets!

About: New to rover but not new to caring for pets. I have learned every pet is different and has their own personality and preferences. I also have learned to adapt to our aging pet’s lifestyle and limitations but make sure we still provide adequate movement and stimulation for him. I am not certified trainer - and don’t consider myself one -but was able to potty train and teach our pet a few tricks and special family words we use with him. Our 13 y/o Chihuahua is protective but friendly, he will bark a lot at first until he gets acquainted and comfortable with others around him and us. We as a family (my husband and two children) enjoy going for walks and our children are also very caring and respectful with pets. I have a flexible work schedule and can adjust to your needs. I am available also on weekends and flexible with late/early drop off or pick up. We have a fenced yard at our home and the yard is spacious. Our home is a two story home. We also have plenty of areas to walk around the neighborhood and nearby trails (Standley lake, Arvada Parks & trails, Golden, Boulder). Our 13 y/o Chihuahua is crate trained. I do not have extra crates but can use your dog's/cat's crate as needed or as you instruct.

“Sarah and her family take such good care of our dog. She loves going there. We are grateful for such a welcoming place, a big yard to run and new friends to play with.”

“Jacky was amazing!!! She was very fast in responding, super friendly, and accommodated my two dogs (one of which can be dog selective). She truly went above and beyond taking care of them. Very lucky to have found her!! Thank you Jacky!!”

Lyric F.

“Brian was quick and thorough with communication, checked with the details I provided, took lots of pictures and Bruce was happy and tired when I picked him up! Will definitely be booking with him again!”

Andrew O.

“We have been traveling for a week and changing plans due to the lack of snow so we made a very last minute request and Emma was super flexible and communicative. She took great care of Minnie! Minnie can be anxious when away from home but was much calmer than usual when we picked her up. When Minnie needed space from Emma’s playful dogs, Emma gave Minnie her own space in the house. We got updates and photos during the day too. We highly recommend Emma and would use her again if we’re traveling in this area again.”

About: Hi, I'm Andi! I’ve been a dog person for as long as I can remember, and for 13 years I had my own dog by my side. I raised him on my own through all kinds of homes and lifestyle changes, from apartments to houses, with big yards and with no yard at all so I know that every dog (and owner!) has their own routine, personality, and needs. Over the years, I’ve also regularly cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs, both in their homes and in mine. I genuinely love having a dog around the house, and enjoy the company, the personality, the walks, and even the little quirks that make them who they are. After losing my own dog, I’m not quite ready to make the commitment to bringing another dog into my life permanently. But I’ve realized I’d love to fill that space by welcoming other people’s dogs into my home and giving them the same kind of care and attention I’d want for my own. My goal is for your dog to feel comfortable, safe, and at home while they’re with me. I’m happy to follow your usual routines, whether that means lots of walks and playtime, a cozy spot on the couch, medication or special instructions, or simply plenty of companionship. I know leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful, so I want you to feel confident that they’re in good hands and that they’ll get plenty of love while you’re away! work from home four days a week, so I’m home with plenty of flexibility throughout the day. On the days I go into the office, I’m typically gone for about four hours or less, so I’m home more often than not. I’m an early riser and am very used to starting the day with a dog’s morning walk. I also have easy access to grass for quick potty breaks throughout the day, in addition to regular walks and playtime. Even on weekends, when I might go for a run, hike, or bike ride, I’m generally home for most of the day working on projects or relaxing. Overall, my schedule gives me plenty of time and flexibility to give dogs attention, exercise, companionship, and plenty of opportunities to get outside. I take pet safety and comfort seriously and want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I’m attentive to each dog’s personality, routine, energy level, and any special instructions from their owner. My home is clean, comfortable, and dog-friendly, with easy access to grass for potty breaks and plenty of opportunities for walks, exercise, and companionship. I’m home most of the time, so dogs aren’t typically left alone for long stretches. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, including feeding, walks, medications, and house rules. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your dog is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
