Top rated Howard doggy day care sitters
About: Currently, only taking overnight guests (boarding in my home) on a case-by-case basis. Please ask. I have a new rescue puppy who is very shy. I have been around pets all my life. I've looked after my own and friends' and family's animals specifically cats and dogs. I will give lots of time, personalized attention, walks and love to your pet while you are away. I offer in-home pet sitting in my home in town, or in your home depending on your location. This personalized and individualized care compared to boarding or kenneling seems to be preferable for happy pets and owners. I'm fully retired and while I enjoy the outdoors -- hiking and walking, camping and fishing, I also have plenty of time to devote to caring for pets whose owners are busy or away. My yard is fully fenced and conveniently located in the town of Westcliffe. If boarding, your pet would be allowed to treat our home like its own. If in your home (within a reasonable distance), scheduled visits will meet your specific requirements such as play time, short walks and feeding schedules.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and play with their pets for many years now. My kids now share that experience and love running around with energetic puppies and cuddling with the older animals. I currently work full time but am available on the weekends, holidays, and certain weekdays. We go on walks and visit the dog park daily. I have a big fenced in backyard and 1 fur baby that loves making friends and playing with other dogs. We enjoy games of fetch and tug-o-war and do light training.

Lynne D.
“Lynne has taken care of Ruger, a 9-year old Doberman on several occasions for me. Ruger is energetic, fast and sweet, but a bit of a handful. Lynne is able to keep him happy and safe, and he loves her taking care of him.”
Vanessa M.
“Vanessa is very dog friendly. She has watched our two big doggies many many times. She’s been very flexible with us and came to our house to watch them and she’s also let us drop them off at her home. Every time she has watched our animals they have always been super happy, well fed, and well taken care of! 10 out of 10 recommend her for any pet needs! She is flexible, dependable, and very trustworthy!”
