Dogs are Family!

Pet care experience

My name is Donna, and I probably already love your dog. Whether they are old friends, my own sweet pup, or a total stranger I love dogs! They are wonderful companions and deserve all the love and joy that they give to us. I want to care for your buddy like they are my own, because that is the same care I would want for my pup. I have had dogs in my life since I was seven, and my love for them has only grown over the years. I love everything about them—their easy happiness, their unique personalities, and their expressive body language. Whatever size, shape, or age dogs have always felt like good old friends, whether they are my own or someone else’s. I know that far from being just pets dogs (and any animal we bring into our home) are members of the family. I want to take care of your dog with the same love, respect, and playfulness I give to my own pup. I believe a happy dog is a relaxed dog, and the best way to get a relaxed dog is with exercise and playtime! Pele loves her long trail hikes and afternoons at the dog park! I offer dog walks, daily drop-ins, and boarding at my house. I have worked with younger and older dogs both personally and in a kennel. And I probably already love your dog.

Donna was absolutely incredible. My dog and I both have separation anxiety but that was never the case during his stay. Donna and her husband took him on daily walks and hikes and was always updating me with pictures. She made both of us feel at home. Every time we go back to Durango we will be booking with Donna. I HIGHLY suggest you leaving your loved one with her, they will be loved and taken care of better than you could ever imagine.

Donna made fast friends with my dog Doug! She is very flexible and does a fantastic job. I would recommend her in a heart beat.

Donna has a true love for animals, and it shows with the quality time and attention she pays to our pup, Mocha! Donna has cared for Mocha several times, always going above and beyond to make sure she got the exercise, attention, and nutrition Mocha deserved :) Donna is our "Go To" anytime Mocha needs a little TLC when we're going out of town!

Before meeting a new dog I like to know if there are any expressions, types of clothing, or movements that could frighten him or her. I want your buddy to be as comfortable with me as they are with you!

A typical day

Let’s hit the trails! We will go hiking, enjoy time at the dog park, or even just a quiet walk around the neighborhood.
