Dog Walkers in Cripple Creek, CO

About: With years of hands-on experience in pet care, I offer a compassionate and reliable approach to meeting the needs of pets. From dog walking and feeding to administering medications and providing companionship, I ensure pets are well cared for and happy. I have a deep understanding of animal behavior and tailor my services to each pet’s individual needs, ensuring their physical and emotional well-being. Whether it’s taking your dog for a walk, grooming, or offering enrichment activities, I prioritize safety, comfort, and happiness for every furry friend I care for. I’m available during the day on Monday-Friday. Weekends included depending on what I’ve got going on those days. If this works for you, shoot me a message! Safety: Every walk is planned with your dog's well-being in mind. I ensure that your dog is always on a secure leash, walking in safe, dog-friendly areas. I am trained in handling various dog behaviors and am always prepared to respond to unexpected situations, from busy traffic to encountering other pets. Trust: I understand how important your pet is to you. As a trusted dog walker, I strive to build a relationship based on open communication and dependability. You can count on me to show up on time, follow your specific instructions, and treat your dog like family. Environment: I choose routes and parks that offer a stimulating, enjoyable, and safe environment for your dog. Whether it’s a peaceful stroll in a quiet neighborhood or a more adventurous hike, I ensure that every walk is tailored to your dog’s energy levels, keeping them mentally and physically engaged.

About: I’ve loved pets for as long as I can remember, so it was a natural fit when a friend asked me to come and stay with her babies when she and her husband were on a 3 week vacation abroad. Word got out and before I knew it, another friend asked me to take care of her babies while she was in Germany. My new business thrived! I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and homes in CA, CO, AZ, and VA. ❤️ They love me and I love them. I am self employed so it’s easy to work your pet/s into my schedule. If it’s dropping in for a potty break and quick play date, or a good long walk to get some fresh air, I have lots of available slots to take care of your precious baby. At this time, I do not offer boarding in my home, however I treat your pets with as much love and care in your home as I treat my precious granddog in mine. Much patience and love is required for pets who are missing their parents and I love caring for them and maybe even spoiling them a bit. 😉

“Renata was a great communicator. Walked my two, high energy dogs for an hour and saved my wrenched knee. They crashed when they got home.”

“Very easy to communicate with and my doggo is always well rested when I get home from work! Will definitely be my first choice to check on my dog always.”

About: I have taken care of animals all my life. I was lucky enough to grow up in the country with cats, dogs, horses etc. My pets are just as important to me as my children. I have always given the best care and love to my pets.They are the best companions for humans. I have watched my daughter’s deaf dog. I have also taken care of many senior pets. When my pets passed we buried them in our yard in the country.They are and always will be a part of our family. I recently retired from teaching. I taught for 25 years and loved it. My schedule is very flexible now. My days are open to help you with your pets. Our cat and dog have a pet door. They can go out and in as they please. Most of the time they are inside especially at night. We feed our dogs and cat in the evening. We play with our dogs and cats and take them on daily walks. I am very flexible on what you need for your pet. I want them to be comfortable and happy while you are away.

About: I have been working with all different types of dogs my whole life. Ive owened Great Danes to Chihuahuas. Recently have been walking and sitting dogs for friends. Dogs have an energy that you don't get from working with any other animal or human. I have found working with dogs makes it more fun to "work". I currently am unable to own my own dog, but am very excited to be able to help other owners out. My roommate has a Chihuahua and a red healer I watch sometimes. I also enjoy getting outside and being active. If your dog likes to jog, I don't have a problem doing so. Fetch or the dog parks are also fun alternatives, if I know owners are ok with it. I’m currently working overnight shift (9:45pm-6:15am)Sat-Wed, but have plenty of time during the day to take care of your pets needs. I currently don’t have any pets, so I’d love to be able to dote on yours while you’re away. I prefer to sit in the home of the animal that is needing the care, as I feel that makes for an easier transition for the pet.

About: I have been in the veterinary profession for 7 years, I am able to administer medications and available for any special needs your fur baby might have. I prefer to meet before booking but I understand emergencies come up. I am completely comfortable coming to your home and walking your kiddo or staying overnight while you are away. I have a St Bernard (4 yrs old), a tabby cat (14 yrs old), a Sphynx cat (1 yr old), and our newest addition is a Border Collie (6 months old). My cats love to lounge in the sun and the dog’s look forward to their walks and dog park time. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of availablilty to hang out and care for your loved ones. Weekends may vary based on my schedule. I have a fenced in yard with two dogs in the home, both are spayed females. We have plenty of fun playing in the sprinkler and dog pool. We also have tons of toys to fetch and chew on.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience and the level of care I put into every pet I watch. I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, and even horses for over 10 years, and I currently pet sit for four dogs regularly. I’m comfortable with puppies, including basic training and routines, as well as senior pets who may need extra patience, attention, or medication. I’m extremely responsible, dependable, and always on time. I truly love animals and take my role seriously—I want every pet to feel safe, happy, and fulfilled while their owners are away, not just cared for but genuinely comfortable and loved. Pet care fits really well into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work part time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to focus on the pets I’m caring for. I’m happy to do house sitting, extended stays, or regular drop-ins for potty breaks, feeding, walks, and lots of attention and love. I plan my schedule around the pets’ routines to make sure they get consistent care, and I take being reliable and on time very seriously. Making sure pets feel comfortable and well cared for is always a priority for me. I care for pets by sticking closely to their normal routines, whether that’s in my home or in a client’s home. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and attention. I always keep their space clean and safe, and I pay close attention to their behavior so I can notice if anything seems off. I’m comfortable giving extra care to puppies who need structure and training, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace or medication. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, happy, and as stress-free as possible while their owners are away.

About: Hello, I’ve been surrounded by animals all my life growing up on a farm and always had canine and feline companions. My father was veterinary trained and passed on some of his knowledge to me. I love all creatures great and small. I started my own dog walking business at 13 and now work as a nurse caring for our two legged friends. I’m comfortable with all sizes and types of animals. Not task is too big. I’m comfortable walking multiple dogs. I’ve pet sat for friends and family on countless occasions. I look forward to caring for your best friend. It would be my honor. Thank you for taking the time to read about me. I look forward to meeting you and your furry companion! I look forward to giving pets the time they deserve and need. I’m adaptable when it comes to my furry clients. I find it helpful to set up a meet and greet before accepting a booking, that way both parties are comfortable and agree that we are a good fit. I pay attention to detail and leave your home exactly as I found it. Any pet messes will be cleaned up immediately upon discovery. My goal is for your pet to feel comforted when you aren’t able to be there. I value communication and update my clients after each visit.

“April does an excellent job taking care of my Heidi baby! My dog can be a teensy bit anxious and April did an excellent job making sure Heidi was comfortable and getting used to her. Heidi and April love each other now! Would highly recommend April to take care of your fur babies!!”

About: I have grown up with dogs and I am a dog lover. I have three dogs of my own and believe dogs are your family. I enjoy going for walks with dogs and will provide them the attention they need. If you work odd hours I am the person for you. I understand that not everyone works a 9-5 shift and it is important that your dog(s) are able to get some interaction even in the evenings. I have raised our dogs from puppies and have also recused dogs. I understand the importance of bonding with a dog and it is important that trust is formed. I will take care of your dog as if it were my own and follow all instructions provided. Thank you.

About: I provide comfort, understanding and insight to all animals. I love dogs, cats and horses most of all but have cared for many other critters too. Pet Care is not so different from Self Care. Food, Water, Cleanliness, Playtime, Nap-time, Sleep-time, exercise, etc. caring for animals much like caring for children, but easier. My adaptability and patience for most situations is my strength as well as communication. If I am unsure about something I will ask, if something unfortunate happens I will tell you, if I make a mistake I will own it.

“We definitely will trust her with our doggos! So glad to have someone to take excellent care of them :)”

About: I have taken care of pets for over 30 years and grown up with dogs as pets my whole life! I enjoy being around pets and taking care of them. Our sweet Pug had seizures so I am familiar with caring for dogs that need meds and care with that also. I work from home and own a Business so can be very flexible with schedules and can be at home with your pet or drop by your home when needed! We live on 3 acres and live on back gravel roads so can walk your pet throughout the day if needing that. I’m home working throughout the day so can get them outside as much as needed.

About: Hi I'm Tori! I've been working closely and training with dogs for the better part of 8 years. When I first started working with dogs, I walked packs of 8-10 dogs off leash in San Francisco parks! I'm solely based in positive (R+) reinforcement training and love to help owners build their best relationships with their beloved pups! I am currently based in Colorado Springs. I'm familiar with great dog-friendly trails and have worked with all kinds of dogs (temperaments, age, and sizes)! I have a dog friendly home in Old Colorado City. I do have a safe fenced in backyard. I always do "meet and greets" before boarding or training any dog. If I stay at the dog owners' home, I stick to the dogs normal schedule/routine and make sure their home and pup is better than I found it! I'm trained in understanding dog's needs and being hyper aware of my environment to ensure safety of the dog I'm watching/walking! I hope to meet your beloved pup soon! Please reach out with any inquiries or questions! I’m very flexible for my clients needs! I do not have any pets of my own and am gone less than 6 hours a day, if I am gone at all. I always try to stick to the dogs normal routine and care! My home has no other pets and I am very experienced in walking, training, and sitting at my home and pet owners homes!

About: I have cared for a variety of dogs and cats, as well as rabbits and other critters. I've administered medications and given baths as needed. I currently work full time from home and my flexible schedule allows for frequent walks and attention paid to the animal friends in my care. I live in a quite neighborhood near endless trail access, so there's more than adequate opportunities for safe and extensive exercise for any furry friends boarding at my home. I follow all instructions from clients regarding their needs and preferences for care in their homes or my own.
