Dog Walking In East Colorado Springs

About: I have hands-on experience working with dogs in both training and care environments, including assisting with board-and-train programs under a professional trainer. This work gave me exposure to structured obedience training, leash handling, and managing dogs with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels. I have also worked with higher-drive dogs, including bitesport and working-line dogs, where clear communication, calm handling, and consistency are essential. This experience taught me how important structure, patience, and reading a dog’s body language are in building trust and maintaining safety. In addition to training environments, I have experience with everyday dog care such as walking, feeding, basic obedience reinforcement, and maintaining routines that help dogs feel secure and balanced while their owners are away. My focus is always on keeping dogs safe, comfortable, and understood while providing owners with reliable, attentive care. Pet care is a priority in my weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to take on morning, midday, and evening visits as needed. I plan my days around bookings so I can be consistent, reliable, and fully present for each pet in my care. I prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine while in their home environment. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding, medication, and care preferences. For drop-ins, I ensure pets are cared for, have fresh water, bathroom breaks, and attention before leaving. For walks, I focus on safe leash handling, awareness of surroundings, and adjusting the walk to the dog’s needs and energy level. I treat every home with respect and understand the importance of trust when caring for someone’s pet.

“This was the first experience with Tahler. She did great and sent me pictures and a follow-up note. I am definitely planning to book her for more services.”

About: With 20 years of hands-on pet care, I bring confidence, compassion, and a deep-rooted love for animals of all kinds. Fearless with dogs, unshakable with cats. Animal welfare is my only current commitment as I transition from full-time life to remote work and volunteering for local shelters. I’m extremely flexible, but the more notice the better. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I’m highly attuned to animal body language, avoid pet meetups unless requested by the owner, and have experience with beginner-friendly training techniques and resources.

“Sarah was amazing with my pup and went out of her way to meet him in person prior to booking. She sent multiple photos of him every day, was quick to respond to my messages and great at handling him! This was my first time using Rover and I will definitely be using again!”

Bailey R.

“Danielle has been a lifesaver to me and my boyfriend on taking care of our English cream golden retriever! She lets him out for us on time and we can always count on her to walk him every week even when we do it lastminute! She also is knowledge and when our dog was acting different she let us know. She genuinely cares and we aren’t so thankful that she takes care of him when we are away! Thanks Danielle!”

Katelyn M.

“Janet is exceptional! From the moment we met, I felt comfortable with Janet (and so did Dar!!). We had a very nice and intentional meet and greet, and the rest is history. She is so good with Dar, and the peace of mind Janet offers through communication, photos, and her authentic behaviors is invaluable!! Thank you so much!!!”

Krista V.

“I cannot recommend her enough! She truly went above and beyond while watching our dogs during an extended time away. From the moment we left, she made us feel completely at ease knowing our pets were being loved and cared for like her own. She kept us updated, gave them so much attention, and created the best possible environment for them while we were gone. On top of that, she even handled a huge mess without hesitation, which says so much about her kindness, patience, and dedication. Coming home to happy, well-cared-for pets gave us so much peace of mind. We are beyond grateful and would trust her again in a heartbeat!”

About: I've had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember. We currently have a sweet pitbull and a comically opposite min pin. We make it work for them! They both receive meds every day so I am no stranger to that process. Looking to expand this care for others in the community. I am self-employed so I'm able to set my own flexible schedule. I take care of both of our pups daily - they get their meds in the morning and a walk to the park before dinner. I also do regular dog walks and drop-ins throughout the week for my clients - I'd love to meet yours! DROP-INS: Your pet will receive my FULL attention for your entire appointment time. For dogs, this means all the tug-of-war ever (if your dog is into that), or just sitting with them and loving on them. For cats, just being there for them if they are a social type. HOUSE-SITS/OVERNIGHTS: For a house-sit, my standard level of care is 2 drop-ins during the day (negotiated with client), and stay the night if they wish (~9PM-7AM). I try to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible, as I know extended time away from pet parents can make them a little anxious. If your pet requires additional time, we can always negotiate level of care above-and-beyond my standard. For my own dogs, they get their morning meds + food, and they enjoy their inside and outside time throughout the day until their daily walk to the park. Then an evening of snuggles and they happily sleep in their kennels. I'm happy and excited to start sharing this love with other folks' pets! I listen to and follow the pet parent's guidance is for their pet - I want the pet to be as comfortable as possible while you're away.

“Sarah has been absolutely wonderful with my dogs! She’s walked them every day and consistently does a fantastic job, which is why I keep re-booking her.

“Dixie agreed to a last minute booking to walk Winston for a few days. He can be a bit nervous around new people, but he warmed up right away. Dixie was reliable and asked questions to make sure she was prepared for any quirks Winston might have on walks I was so relieved to know he was taken care of while I was away from home. I would highly recommend Dixie!”

“Mackenzie was so awesome! She was so sweet to my pup and really took care of him. She was prompt on his walking schedule, and she gave excellent updates on every walk. I was so happy every time she shared what they did on his walks, which eased my mind greatly. I will definitely rebook with Mackenzie in the future, she was great!”
