Safety, trust & environment

I have a VERY large fenced in yard that I usually just leave my door open while I am home so our fur babies can play inside or out. I also have no issue crating your animals if needed I have four dogs myself and they roam the house while I am away. I can accommodate whatever needs your fur children have, I even have extra dog crates if your fur baby needs them. I do require all animals to be up to date on vaccines as I have animals myself and only want the best for your children and mine. My dogs love other dogs of any size and love to play in the yard.

HUGE YARD…SECOND DOG 1/2 PRICE

Pet care experience

I have taken care of or have had basically any animal there is and I love them all. I own a house in west Denver with a fully fenced in yard that my animals love. There is no dog too big for my family. I have experience with crate training, potty training, as well as in and off leash training. I have no issue accommodating anyone’s needs for their animals as I treat all animals as if they were my own. Honestly, I love animals more than people. I am more than happy to do a meet and greet prior to watching your fur children. HOLIDAYS ARE FIRST COME BASIS FOR CONFIRMATION

Ian was so nice to our dog Kodak. He was responsive and provided us with pictures and updates multiple times a day. We were a bit nervous leaving Kodak with a group of other dogs, as we had not done that before, but Ian made us feel comfortable and made sure that he took great care of Kodak!
