Doggy Day Care in Larkspur

About: Hello! I’m Amy, and my husband, James, and I would be honored to care for your furry friend! Pets have always had a special place in my heart, so I decided to make a business out of my passion and help out other pet parents. I have been a responsible caregiver for both dogs and cats since I was a child. I have volunteered at several rescue groups, participated in foster care, and adopted several dogs. My current furry friend is a sweet 7 yr old spaniel mix named Scooter, and he gets along well with other dogs as well as cats. My husband and I both work from home so my hours are flexible and I am happy to work with your schedule. James is also a sitter and may be available to help if I am not. I work a hybrid schedule so I am home most of the time. I will be up front with you if there are any time conflicts. My husband, James, is usually home as well and available to help. I am happy to work with your schedule as best I can. I have a large fenced back yard with a doggy door to the house for clients who wish to drop off for day care or boarding. I take my own dog for 1-2 30+ min walks daily and will happily do the same with clients. I am also happy to do more frequent walks or go to the park if needed.

“Olivia has been a godsend this summer, looking after our rescue lab. After being found as a stray Ella has some separation anxiety but Olivia and her family have taken great care of her, been super flexible with our schedule and provided a great environment for Ella to relax in and get used to other people. Thanks so much, Olivia!”

“Priya is very flexible with drop-off and pick up times, she helped me navigate through the Rover process, and is very communicative. I received pictures and an update on how Finn was adjusting. Finn had a great time with Priya and her family and I have complete confidence in leaving my "baby" with her. ❤️”

“Richard and Susan were very prompt at responding to messages. Smokey had a great time! He came back exhausted, which is always a plus! We will definitely be using them again!”

About: I have had animals most of my life so caring for them is easy. We also have 2 small dogs of our own and 2 small children to keep them entertained. I run my own company so my schedule is extremely flexible and my wife is a stay at home mom so someone is always here to supervise. We have a fenced in yard and 2 small dogs for your dogs to play with. We don't keep the animals outside for very long, especially in the winter time. Our dogs are fed twice a day but as many feedings can be done as needed.

“Always amazing!!!!”

About: We’ve taken care of cats and dogs for over 16 years! We love all breeds and all types of animals! All are welcomed and loved! My wife stays at home most of the day and absolutely loves to take care of animals. I work just a few minutes away from the house but can be home in a moment’s notice. We have a fenced yard to take care of your dog or cat. We have all sorts of toys, dog foods, and soft places to rest. We don’t currently have any pets in our home; waiting a bit to adopt the right one after the passing of our pug, so no need to worry about different animals not getting along. We have two elementary aged daughters who love animals, but are quiet, respectful, and very good at understanding animal boundaries.

“Dawn was awesome! I'll definitely book with her again!”

“Casey let Skye play with her dog Bauer during doggy day care which made Skye very happy; they are both young. Skye had a great time and was quite tired. Casey does a great job of supervision.”

About: My husband and I recently moved back home to CO from Dallas! I’ve studied and worked in the field of psychology, which has taught me a lot about how to best assess the needs of those around me, including pets. Past employers have called me responsible, trustworthy, punctual, & experienced. I’d love the chance to care for your furry friends! My family has owned dogs (from Golden Retrievers to Maltese) my entire life, and growing up, I had the majority of responsibility in raising and taking care of them. Additionally, we adopted a kitten last year, and she has become the love of our lives! Even though I have a lot of experience, every pet & how they are cared for is different, so I cater my care specifically to the requests & desires that owners disclose. I have been offering services on Rover for about 6 years, so I am very familiar and comfortable with its process. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets! I’m currently taking a break from full time work, so have a lot of flexibility and plenty of time to spend caring for your beloved animals! I am sure to take extra care for the safety of animals, to ask questions, and follow instructions about the safety procedures you prefer for your pets!

About: As a former animal rescue founder, I have fostered and cared for over 100 dogs in my home over the years. I have a huge soft spot for the difficult cases and am well-versed in animal behavior. I have experience with blind, deaf, diabetic, fearful, and medically needy domestics, exotics and livestock. I have also worked as a veterinary technician in the past. I know how important it is to have someone you trust to care for your animals. I provide love, play, enrichment and exercise to keep your fubaby happy. I will care for your fur-kid(s) like my own so you can feel 100% confident while you aren't with them. I am a homemaker, so I am home all day and I plan my commitments around my guests. While boarding, If I need to leave for a moment, I make sure everyone is safely crated. Please let me know if your furbaby has separation anxiety or cannot be crated and I will be sure to make arrangements to stay with your pet. I have a fenced yard and I do not work outside of my home, so I am available to give your furbaby my full attention.

About: For the past 33 years I've had 2 dogs. Five years ago I bred mine and watched as 8 puppies were born! I kept one and found good homes for the others. I'm retired and want to stay busy. Having pets to care for brighten my days! And most of them don't talk back. I will be home all day and night. I know the importance pets play in our lives. I will follow your instructions to the letter, treat them like my own family and love on them as you would. I have a fenced yard to play in and a doggie door. I can train them to the doggie door if they don't know how.

“Nikki did a fantastic job taking care of our 6 month old puppy. She treated him as her own and sent updates with details on how the day was going. She also sent pictures. I would recommend Nikki to everyone.”

“Bruce had a fantastic day with their family! I know because Olivia was kind enough to send adorable pictures and videos. I am so glad I was able to find such a wonderful family that looked after him as if he were their own. I couldn’t have hoped for a better day for the little fella!”

About: I have cared for animals my entire life. I have experience with puppies, reactive dogs, aggressive dogs, and senior dogs. I have cared for dogs pre and post-operations. I have experience potty training, crate training, and leash training. I am comfortable administering medications and giving injections. Similarly I have experience with cats of all ages and temperaments, including cats with special medical needs. Extra experience includes horses, goats, cows, and chickens, which I have spent extensive time around since my childhood. My upbringing on a farm taught me a great deal about animal care, responsibility, and hard work. Animals were the central part of chores and daily tasks growing up. I learned about how intuitive animals are and how they respond to and feel the energy of humans. I am a Registered Nurse, and the same qualities that make me an excellent nurse make me an excellent animal caretaker. I am sensitive and in tune with the needs of people and animals, I am responsible and prioritize safety, I am calm in a crisis, and I am trustworthy. If this bio seems long it’s only because I know it is a BIG deal to trust another person with the care of your beloved animals and your home. I want you to know I will treat your animals as my own, and I will do whatever is needed to make sure you are comfortable and at ease with the arrangement. I’m currently taking a break from full-time nursing work so that I can travel and have some respite from the healthcare field. One of the ways I fill my cup is by spending time with animals, and I would love to be someone you can trust to be with your pets when they need reliable and loving care. My greatest priority is the safety of your animals and following any instructions that you require for their care. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when someone else is caring for your animals and I would want to know exactly how to meet your needs and theirs. You know your pet best, and I want to understand all your pets little quirks and characteristics!
