I currently am not working, I just go to the gym and then hike with my dog on nicer days or bike. So I have a very open schedule at the moment and if that changes I will change my availability.

Safety, trust & environment

I don’t have a fenced in yard, it is half a fence but the dogs can go around. My Berniedoodle is trained to stay around the house and out of the road. Inside the home is safe and dog friendly with blankets on the furniture so they can jump on it. I have a few extra leashes as well if ever needed and many poop bags. When caring for a dog elsewhere I would listen to instructions of the owner and follow them to the letter. I treat other’s dogs like I would want my Berniedoodle treated.

Pet care experience

I have had dogs my entire life, I have a 3 year old Berniedoodle named basin who is the happiest dog in breckenridge. Before her I had a golden/lab named willow and before that a Siberian husky. I am 32 years old, live in town and near the dog park. I can also bike with dogs if they are trained to run along. I have an e bike I bike with my dog.

Derek was quick to respond, thorough with following the care instructions, and communicative about updates. It’s obvious he’s very experienced with dogs of multiple breeds- my pitbull isn’t the most easygoing dog to take care of but he was excellent with her, even taking her out for an extra potty break after seeing she drank a lot of water and offering extra check-ins as well as leaving the TV on for our other dog to ease her anxiety. Would highly recommend!!

Derek was great. Our dog had so much fun, he was not happy to have to leave at the end of the weekend.

We did a one time booking with Derek and he took good care of Scout. Next time we are in Breckenridge and need a sitter, he will be the first we reach out to!

Derek did a great job watching Chewy for the day, sent pics and was very communicative. Definitely recommended!
