“We were going to Telluride and needed a place for our baby. Mark’s home and setup is perfect for dogs! He sent so many photos and videos that I never worried about our dog. We will be using Mark again for sure!! Awesome location for dogs!!!”
“Ashley took amazing care of my dog and is truly one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. As if that wasn’t enough, her property is beautiful and perfect for animals. My dog had so much fun with her pack and was well exercised every day. I will definitely use her services again, and would recommend her to anyone!! Thank you so much, Ashley :)”
“Kenzie was kind, communicative, and accommodating of a last minute shift. She sent photo updates and it looks like my pup had a great time with plenty of space to explore with her new friends.”
“I was thoroughly impressed with Sandra! She was very kind and responsive and took great care of my Oakley. She sent me pictures and updates throughout the day. Would definitely use again.”
“Bently had a great stay with Jack! Drop off and pick up were very smooth and I received lots of pictures. Bently had just started Prednisone and Jack gave him the medication and paid close attention to his well-being. Great communication and Bently would love to stay again if we're ever back in the area!”
About: I lost my 9 year old dog, Zorro, last summer and I've been missing that companionship and the dog walks. While I'm not ready for a new pup of my own, but I would love to get to know yours. I'm between jobs right now so if my calendar shows that I'm available, my time is your pets. I would be able to take them with me as I go about my day or hang with them at their home. I prefer to take care of pets in my clients homes so they feel safe and secure in their familiar surroundings. Once we get to know each other I'd would like to bring them to my house to hang out during the day. I live on 10 acres that is mostly fenced in so your pup would be sure to have a good time.
About: I went to school originally for animal science and veterinary technology. I worked in veterinary ERs, general practice, shelters for 6 years out of school. While I have hung up my hat as a vet tech officially in 2009 after I found a passion for a career in nonprofit and outdoor education, I still maintained several dog/cat sitting clients in Telluride where I lived over the course of fifteen years on the side of my full time program director position for a busy summer camp. Now in my 40s I work from home or remotely, for the last six years, as a nonprofit consultant. I have one lab named Zappa who keeps me on my toes the way only labs how. (I can always bring him with me to your home or let him stay at home.) My lifestyle is active and I stay flexible so I can work remotely for travel opportunities (or to stay with your fur babies in your home!). I love running, hiking, surfing, rafting and riding bikes. Senior pets, meds and special instructions are no problem for me with my certified vet tech background. I look forward to meeting you and your loved ones! Let me know if you have any questions 💙 I’m typically very flexible since I work from home. I split my time between Mancos/Durango/Telluride so can stay wherever you are or your pet can stay with me, or I can do drop ins. Sometimes I have to drive up to Telluride for client meetings but would know ahead of time and plan your pet sitting around that or just not schedule anything during that time. My house is very clean, uncluttered and comfortable. I have an unfenced yard on 4 acres but would follow your lead on this one. My dog uses a halo collar for his fence boundary at my house. I’ve cared for dogs who need leash walks only too.
