Doggy Day Care in Fraser

About: Hello! My name is Gwen and my husband's name is Mikkel. We live full time between the towns of Granby and Grand Lake and both work from home. We currently have 1 dog - a medium-sized, mild-mannered mixed breed named Baxter. Since we both work from home and are now empty nesters with a quiet house, we'd love to help you with dog care when you need to go out of town. We both have had dogs all of our lives, ranging from small dogs to labs, huskies, and shepherd mixes. We have taken care of dogs for friends and family on a regular basis. We take Baxter out for a walk in the morning and a walk in the evening so your pup(s) will get plenty of exercise with us if they'd like to. We don't have a fenced yard but will keep the dogs on leashes. We'll only book 1 family's dog or dogs at a time so it won't be too chaotic. Feel free to reach out with questions or to book time with us! Looking forward to taking care of your pup(s). We both wake up early so the dogs will get a walk and breakfast to start the day. We keep to a regular schedule which we find that dogs like so they know what to expect. There will be a great balance of rest time, exercise, and meal time. You can count on us to provide personalized, loving care for your dog(s). We have a safe, calm, and nurturing environment that dogs like. Baxter gets along well with other dogs.

“Incredible! Very communicative- lots of updates and photos throughout Sage's stay. She had a blast with Orion and felt comfortable that she was well taken care of. Will definitely be booking again!”

“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!”

About: I love big dogs, especially GSDs, but have experience with many ages, breeds, and sizes. I grew up with several labs. The last 10 years I raised a German Shepherd from 8 weeks that sadly passed away last summer. Needless to say I miss being covered in dog hair. I have experience with various personalities, separation anxiety, cuts/injuries, and administering medication. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, hikes, and going to parks, but can also just hang out with your pup if that’s what’s desired. I work remote full time and set my own schedule, allowing flexibility all hours and days. I live in a home with plenty of room and a fenced in backyard. Trails are 20 yards away. Reach out if you’d like to set up a meet and greet! I work remotely and make my own schedule, so I’m flexible at all hours and days to provide the care that your dog needs and deserves. Dogs are always welcome in my home! I have plenty of space with a fenced in yard and dogs are allowed on the couch and in the bed. I’m easy to work with, patient (some dogs just like to sniff more than they walk), communicative, and can adjust to any preferred care strategy to provide a trustworthy service while you’re away.

“Great experience all around. Larry is a dog person for sure! I would book again, and will be recommending him to other big dog owners.”

“Stuss was great with my little Indy, a 14 week old mini dachshund pup. He was flexible and very responsive. Would highly recommend! Thank you Stuss!”

“Cherie watched Paisley for half a day while we were snowmobiling, and she was truly a dog whisperer. She kept us updated with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. Paisley usually won’t even leave her crate the first time with a new sitter, but with Cherie she felt comfortable enough to go out right away. Cherie even accommodated us by driving Paisley back to our Airbnb. Communication was excellent throughout. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely book her again.”

“Robyn is a wonderful dog sitter and lovely person. She understands dog behavior and knew how to reduce my dog's anxiety when being introduced to her dogs, which can often lead to snippy behavior. She helped my Lucy to be very comfortable during her overnight stay to the point that Lucy initiated play with another dog, which is unusual for her. Robyn was flexible with pick up and drop off which was great for our situation. I'm so glad I found Robyn and would highly recommend her.”

“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.”

“Soni had a blast! He’s usually a bit cautious in the beginning but he seemed to do well right away. And Lisa kept me well informed throughout the day.”

Sarah M.

“Georgia successfully tired out our energetic, border collie puppy Nancy! She was communicative throughout the day and took Nancy to play in the creek. Thank you!!”

Ellie S.

“Sue was wonderful. She watched our mini Goldendoodle Luna while we hit the slopes at keystone. Very communicative and flexible on pickup/drop off times. Luna came home pooped. Thank you Sue!”

Katie C.

“Wonderful people we found to watch our old pup Carlton while we adventured in RMNP. Great family very flexible and easy going. It was great getting photos of our pup having a fun time with them while we were searching for moose and chasing waterfalls. Highly recommend!”

Brittany S.

“Nicholas was great quick and easy to communicate with. He took our dog Shaka on all his errands for the day (mostly indoors because it was super cold) and hung out with him at his work. Shaka was relaxed and asleep when I collected him.”

“Minda is awesome! Took such great care of our dog for the day - they played a ton outdoors and Atlas was so tired at the end of a fun day. Very cool location closer to trails and mountains! Thank you so much!”

About: Hello! I grew up on 5 acres of land, with experience in just about every hooved or pawed furry friend. I also volunteered at a Humane Society for a number of years training and fostering dogs, so I am familiar with working with any little quirks or needs your friend may have. I currently have 3 dogs of my own, as well as our newest addition, our kitty Bopi. Our animals cohabitate as a little pack, we aren't sure if the kitty realizes she isn't a dog like all of her siblings in the home! We are happy to host at our home with a proper meet-and-greet as well as me coming to you if your pet prefers their own home while you're away. Our pets are our family and go on any adventure possible that we can bring them on, and I will treat yours the same! If you do happen to have farm animals other than cats and dogs, I am comfortable taking care of them as well, feel free to inquire! I am currently available full-time, working on home improvements while spending all my extra time with my own fur babies! Your animals will not be left alone during their stay for more than a trip to the store, as I dedicate my time making them comfortable in their home away from home or while missing their person. I have a very large, safe and fenced yard in the heart of Granby. We are a block away from a park, as well as many other amazing parks and walking trails nearby.

“Catie was great! She took my dog last minute. She sent a photo and walked her. I would definitely book with her again.”

About: I can't wait to meet your dogs and cats! I love pets of all breeds, sizes, and ages including puppies/kittens and seniors. We live on a quiet road in Coal Creek Canyon with a half acre fenced yard! My other work is currently very flexible so I'm available for pet care pretty much any time. I work from home and I'm more than happy to hang at your home with your pet! I'm extremely happy to care for your dog or cat according to your established routines at home. I'm also more than happy to transport them in my car for hikes or walks anywhere in the Nederland area!

“Mae was super communicative and took great care of our pup! Would definitely recommend”

About: I grew up with animals (even cows!) and am a reliable, loving caretaker for you fur babies while you are away. I treat them like they're my own and understand how important our pets/ babies are to all of us as owners! I have plenty of time and work remote running my own business as a health coach. My availability is 24/7, as I can work my hours around what else is needed. Like it is my own. I want to guarantee safety and loving care while you are away, whether it be special edits, meds, walking a lot, taking them to groomers, and or the dog park.
