About: I am an experienced dog-owner and animal lover, and have had dogs of my own for the last 15 years. I have a 70 pound Shar Pei-Pitt mix named Teddy who LOVES LOVES LOVES other dogs and would love to have a playmate around! We also live with my boyfriend and his 8 pound Chihuahua, Stewart, who mostly just ignores other dogs :). We live in NW Denver near two lakes and a big dog park, so we are quite active and get the pups out a lot. We also have a 6 foot fence around our backyard. My last dog, Miles, was a Great Dane who made it to 13 years old!! Caring for him towards the end of his life gave me experience with senior dogs and dogs with special needs. Whatever your dog needs, I can handle it! We both work from home most days (with occasional meetings at the office), so it is very rare that we are both gone at the same time. We are able to let dogs out with a lot of frequency, if needed. We have a fenced-in backyard, plenty of space for crates, and lots of experience to keep your dog safe. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and we're big cuddlers! Both of our dogs are relatively low-key, so we provide a quiet and calm environment.

About: I have 3 Corgis, 2 males 6 years old. 1 girl 4 years old Love being around dogs. I am a calm person and that helps with having dogs. I don't mind barking but not the whole day. We have daily play time in the fenced in backyard and if weather permitted, we are outside a lot. Walks if possible. I am about safety first in all kinds of different situations. Giving food or treats (separate), walks, play. I am very active with fundraisers and auctions to help pay for vet bills, on a nonprofit board. I do rescue and transportation of dogs when possible. My Corgis are family members and they need love and attention just like people. No problem having them on the couch. I like doing my own grooming. Home all day, time enough to watch, play, walk and relax with your dog. Inside and outside depending on weather and what your dog needs. I have a fenced yard, kept clean 24/7, toys to play with, crates and x pens if needed for inside and outside. Quiet and safe area around the house.

“Sonia and Jon are Awesome ! The minute my boys and walked through their front door I fell in Love with them, I felt like I had known them foreve !

Josie R.
“The first and most important thing I can say about Josie is that she loves dogs! She is also very kind and patient. A good example of Josie's personality is that when we were just getting to know each other, I got very sick and needed to be in the hospital. Josie offered to come dog sit for what was supposed to be maybe 7 days.......it turned out to 5 weeks. She came from 2 hours away to help me in a very needy time. I can't say enough good things about her and needless to say now we are very good friends. She will make an excellent dog sitter.”
