Dog Walking is my Cardio!

Pet care experience

Hi and thank you for checking out my profile! My name is Allison and I am a Colorado transplant by way of Southern California. I grew up around all sorts of animals. My family had many dogs throughout my life (including one that was blind) and I was also involved in 4-H where I raised steers and rabbits. I always loved running outside or taking our dogs for walks among the fields at home. Living in Colorado I feel is one of the most perfect places to have a dog. There are so many activities you can bring them along for. While I don't have my own dog at the moment I have loved and cared for many of my friends and coworkers dogs as though they were my own. One dog I grew very attached to was a service dog that was trained to open doors, pick up things that were dropped and so much more. I've cared for and grown up with dogs from puppy to the older stages of their lives. Some that were well behaved and others that needed a little more training. I live an active lifestyle and love being outside. I'd welcome the opportunity to meet you and your pup and bring them along for one of my adventures and walks outside!

Allison is the most selflessly caring person I know. Without a moments notice, she was always there for me and my dog, Potter, whenever we needed her. Whether it was for an hour or two going to work, or for extended periods of week-long (or more) travel. Not only did we create a lifelong friendship initially through Potter, but developed a forever family-like bond. Potter was a rather anxious pup, and was never very comfortable staying with other people, even to the point of causing anxiety-induced seizures. But once Allison came into our lives and developed a connection with Potter, his issues disappeared when we were apart. Not only did she herself fall in love with Potter, but extended it to her immediate family. Telling her own family members so much about Potter, that by the time they got to meet Potter in person, it's as if they already knew him. Her heart is massive, and her sense of responsibility is so great that any animal she is entrusted with, will be treated as her own child. Anyone who could use Allison as a sitter is the luckiest person in the world.

Allison is awesome!! She has taken care of my two dogs and treated them like family. She has even made them homemade dog treats! I never have to worry when Allison is caring for my dogs. I would recommend her to anyone!

I live in a two story town home that has a small fenced in patio in the south part of town (near fort carson). My residence is near a small park that has a fenced in dog part as well. Also live near part of the Santa Fe trail where I enjoy walks, runs, and riding my bikes. While I don't have my own dog I have lots of dog nieces and nephews that we could play with (with your permission). I can guarantee if your dog stays with me we will go for at least three small walks a day if not more and they will be well loved and taken care of. I even make homemade dog treats from time to time!
