Experienced Handler

Pet care experience

Hello! Denver and Steven here, and we love caring for all animals, especially dogs! I am very experienced in dealing with dogs that may have separation anxiety and our pack here is great at making guests feel right at home! They get plenty of playtime, and have plenty of space for quiet time. I have ample experience with positive reinforcement training, working with puppies and older dogs. I’ve also handled dog-aggressive pups who may not be well socialized, and are reactive to other dogs. We work on building healthy socialization through our existing doggy pack who are all non-reactive and trained to ignore aggression. Currently, my male Great Pyrenees will not do well with other larger dominant males (100 lb +), but does very good with smaller dogs (<100lb) male or female. He is very gentle with the smaller dogs and will play well with medium and small dogs/puppies alike. My medium size dog Lucy is great with everyone and really just wants to have fun! I also can keep a strict training regimen for those who need it, and usually work with all doggy guests in abiding by simple rules and commands. I use only positive reinforcement, meaning lots of rewards of treats, toys and head scratches! If they are already trained then they have free roam of the house! All my repeat guests are always excited to return and have a rewarding experience while you are away! Updates are provided frequently and your pup is treated like family!

Denver was awesome! Great communication while we were gone (pics and videos). Lots of playtime for our pup! She kept up with his ongoing training and helped reinforce the behaviors we're working on. Atreus had an amazing stay with them and we had a peaceful trip knowing our little guy was in good hands. Will definitely board him there again! Thank you so much!!

I recently moved to SA for work and was asked to attend a conference last minute. I was very concerned about leaving my fur kid behind until I met Denver. She has now taken excellent care of both my pup and home on 4 different occasions - the longest has been a 7 day trip. If you're looking for someone to watch your fur kid look no further - she is wonderful!

Denver pupsitted for us during our wedding and reception. She did a great job and was so accommodating! We were able to enjoy our wedding day feeling sure our little guy was well taken care of! And she sent update pics during his stay. Would definitely recommend.

My wife and I were lucky enough to find Denver here on Rover. We’ve used her a couple of times now for dog sitting at our house. She has been very accommodating, flexible, and shares updates of our pups with us while we’re away. We come home to a happy house of two content dogs. We are so appreciative of her and highly recommend her! Thank you Denver!

Safety, trust & environment

All guests are treated like family and have the same free roam of the house like our fur babies do. We take them on fun walks around the neighborhood, or have some splash time in the puppy kiddie pool in the back. We have oversized crates for those who may need it, you can also bring your crate along as well. The backyard has a privacy fence, is large, and well maintained. We typically let the dogs go out as they please in the morning, and in the evenings. During the days when it’s really hot we let them out as needed. The back door to the backyard acts as a doggy door with a net they can easily go in and out from. They have an oversized bean bag in their play area along with tons of toys, they love napping and hanging out there. The front of the house has large bay windows to the floor that let them look out into the yard and investigate any passerby!

Information Denver C. would like to know about your pet

Does your dog have any aggressive tendencies? How well does he/she get along with cats and other pets? Is your dog crate training, and house trained? Please advise of any conditions your dog may have, whether it be anxiety, skin conditions or otherwise.

A typical day

I love to walk dogs but I do have a moderate leash policy. If you dog is not very good on the leash, I will walk them and work with them on it but cannot guarantee a long or lengthy walk. We can get out some energy with toys, playing fetch and tug o war!
