PLEASE NOTE: I live in FLORISSANT on 2 acre where about 1/3 acre fenced with my sister and her new maltipoo puppy. I have one dog a lab mix named Jake who is 6 years old now. I have a dog door so the dogs can come in and out at will. I usually take them out for a hike in the mornings - your dogs can come if you are comfortable with that. The dogs are allowed almost anywhere in the house. I have owned dogs most of my life. I will treat your dogs just like they are part of my family as I know that your dogs are part of yours. Leaving your dogs with another person is a hard action to take as you need to know that person will take good care of your dog. If you put your trust in me I will strive to care for your dog(s) so you will have peace of mind.

Ozzie (our 9 1/2 yo Lab/Rot mix) looked so sad when we dropped him off. We for an update the next day. A great relief. We appreciated the pictures she sent us every couple of days. We could see he was loving the walks with her dogs. We will definitely use Barbi again!

When we went to Barb's home to meet prior to making our appointment. My wife and I were very impressed. The yard around the home was completely fenced. Toys everywhere. The home was pet friendly. After meeting her, she was very educated and highly trained in caring for pets. She even makes her own healthy pet food. She was very personal, asking a lot of questions about our pup, his habits, needs or any special instructions. You can tell she loved being a pet caretaker. So we made our appointment. When we dropped Murphy off, an Aussie pup, we had no concern. He was so excited to be with other dogs. First time. And he loved Barb. Barb went out of her way for my wife and I. She was going to Colorado Springs to visit the Bear Creek dog park and took Murphy and her dogs there for some fun. She text photos of Murphy having fun with her dogs. Awesome! When we picked Murphy up the next day, he was so excited to see us but very tired from being with other dogs. This was differently one of our greatest experiences with the most caring and highly experienced pet caretaker and Murphy loved it completely. That evening at home and the next morning, Murphy kept looking out the window, looking for Barb and her beautiful dogs. No more Kennels boarding ever again. In the future, Barb is and always will be our pet caretaker. We are very pleased with finding Barb through Rover. We are already making plans for June. Thank you very much. Cliff & Jan

Doggy Day Care • janv. 07, 2026

Barbi took great care of my Australian Shepard. She has a large fenced in yard- perfect for high energy pups like mine. She has a three dogs of her own so best for dogs that are social and want play time.
