Laura took great care of my pups! The location was convenient and the dogs seemed to enjoy themselves. I would happily use her again.

Schedule

Daily dog walks - I take our 2 dogs on hikes/walks every day, so your furry friends will fit right in! Personalized attention – I only take one client at a time (up to 2 dogs from same client) and our household is semi-retired so your dog(s) will never be left alone. Safe, fenced yard for off leash play. Convenient in town location.

Safety, trust & environment

I know firsthand how hard it can be to find sitters you truly trust. I live in town in Durango and have noticed that there are very few local sitters who take dogs on walks. That’s exactly what I'm offering - a comfortable home environment with walks, a yard and no crates. My home is located right in town, with a secure fenced in yard where dogs can run, play, and relax. No long drives out of the way — just easy drop offs and peace of mind. I have two friendly dogs who love to play, we are all very active and will take your pup on regular daily hikes. Whether your pup loves chasing toys or lounging in the sun, they’ll have company and enrichment here. I built this service around what we ourselves struggled to find in Durango: sitters who combine excellent care (daily walks) with in-town convenience. Your pup will be treated like family, with space to play and friends to bond with.

A typical day

I take our 2 dogs out every day for a hike or walk, your pup(s) will join me in this activity. My dogs spend most of the day lounging in the fenced back-yard and your pups will be free to go outside or stay inside - whatever they want.

Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat

Laura can host up to 2 pets per night
My preference is for social pups who are looking to enjoy their time with our dogs and being outside when we exercise. We do not take German Shepherds due to one of our dogs having a bad experience with one.
