Dog Boarding in Durango

“Emma and Mary were so caring while I left my pup with them over thanksgiving! They even made a special thanksgiving meal for my DayDay :) such kind people. My doggo felt right at home over at their place with a really nice back yard and Toby to play with. They were very accommodating with the virus going around and kept my dog safe and sound at their home. Thank you so much!”

“We had a great experience with Hope. She agreed to keep our dog on short notice when my family and I decided to head out of town for a long weekend, and she was flexible with drop off and pick up times. Prior to our trip, Hope made time for our dog to get acclimated to her home and to her dog and another dog that she was keeping at the time. During our trip, she sent pictures and communicated regularly, and we felt confident that our dog was well cared for.”

“Jackson was so great with my big dog, Hannah, that I thought she might not want to come home with me. He took her for hikes every day. I can’t believe I was lucky enough to find an opening for Hannah at his home.”

“My pups were feeling right at home the moment they got to Erin’s. They are not only well cared for but also got to do all the things they love like going to the dog parks and getting on the trails. They got along well with Paxson too. The daily update and pictures also gave me the peace of mind during the long trip.”

“Kimberly was wonderful with our dog Ava. She made our dog feel at home and kept her busy with walks and activities around the house. Our pet did not have anxiety problems at Kimberly's house! She is a very responsible and knowledgeable pet sitter that I would recommend to anyone looking for a nice cozy home for your pet!”

“Courtney is a wonderful dog sitter! She took great care of our dogs for a week and communicated with us each day and sent very cute photos. She was able to give our boys their prescribed medications without any issues. We will definitely book Courtney again!”

“Deb is wonderful! She watched my crazy golden retriever on short notice and she sent me a ton of pics from their walks and playtime! I plan to use her again!”

“I'm very careful who I leave our dog, Zoe with. As soon as I met Drilon, I knew that she would be in good hands. She is an older dog that requires a couple of walks a day, and lots of love. She certainly received that while we were gone. Drilon sent pictures of her while we were gone, and she was very happy and content when we picked her up at the end of her two week stay with Drilon. I would gladly leave Zoe with Drilon again.”

“Tom is a great sitter. He is flexible, conveniently located, and Dorothy always seems to have fun at his place!”

About: I rescued my first dog when I was 5! She had to grow through a lot of trauma and fear but with love and proper training she became the best childhood dog I could’ve asked for. Since then I’ve become a regular dog-sitter for friends and others, priding myself on making sure every dog I meet is comfortable around me, and becoming friends with them as well! I’m experienced with crate-training, potty pads, frequent bathroom breaks, senior care such as softening food and mobility assistance, and so on. I trained my second dog since a puppy, and I’m familiar with many basic training techniques that have been necessary with dogs that I’ve taken care of in the past-from mutts and labs to pitbulls and chihuahuas. I’m a Fort Lewis student with a relatively free schedule. I have classes that are not difficult to work around, and have free days in every week., I’m able to spend most of my time wherever I need to be, and my weekends are almost always free. I do everything possible to make sure your dog is comfortable and happy around me. I have a small backyard at my own home and will take walks whenever and wherever necessary. There’s nothing I love more than animals, so I’ll spend as much time with your dog as they like… playing, cuddling, training, etc. and I’ll always have two eyes out. I will fully engage in any behavioral exercises or training methods you prefer-if your dog isn’t allowed on furniture at home, we will keep the same philosophy if they’re at my house/under my supervision. Dogs are pack animals, so even if their people are gone I still want them to feel like they’re in a safe pack. Your pet, your rules, just let me know! Otherwise, my main philosophy is making sure we have a great time together!

“Our dog enjoyed his stay in Durango. We got daily updates on how he was doing. Easy drop off/pick up on a ski trip where our condo didn’t allow us to bring our dog. We would definitely book again.”

“Liz loves dogs and like us, has her own furbaby. She provides love and care and goes that extra mile to make her the happiest dog ever. She’s responsible, caring, reliable, a true genuine animal lover. If you want someone to watch your babies like they were your own, Liz would be the perfect fit! 100% trust her with mine <3”

“Got daily videos and pictures if rosie hiking swimming and having a blast! She was in a great mood when i picked her up. 10/10 would book again”

“Absolute best dog sitters EVER! my girls had the best time. Updates and everything and absolutely loved everything about this. I usually have a hard time leaving them alone but not this time. Such a great choice. Thank you again ?”

“Chris took excellent care of our boy Duke while we were traveling. Very responsive communicator! He truly cares about the animals he cares for and is very in tune and concerned for their individual needs.”

“Jenny is an excellent caretaker! She and her sweet puppy are a perfect fit. Her attention to detail and care for all animals really comes through. We’ll definitely be seeing them again!”

“Alexis took great care of Ashti, and I would definitely use her services again!”

“I highly recommend Ciara! They took great care of our two dogs. The communication was great and we received regular updates with photos of all their fun adventures! The next time we are out of town, we will definitely reach out to them!”

“Sarah was awesome with my puppy! She was happy and worn out after a full day of play with Winnie! Would 100% recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I am currently working part-time, and have plenty of time to care for your fur babies with my helpful 6-year-old daughter to help! Lots of love & snuggles abound. I live in a safe neighborhood and reliable transportation to get to/from your house, and the dog park! We love playing outside and would love to do it with your fur baby.
