Adventure & care for dogs
Pet care experience
As a lifelong dog lover who grew up with weimaraners and hunting dogs, I'm often caught paying more attention to the dogs at a party than the guests or struggling to not pet every dog I see on the street. I've taken care of and helped train many family and friend's dogs, horses and cats, so I'm comfortable with a variety of animals with different sizes and abilities. Although I would love to have a dog of my own, we aren't able to make this commitment just yet, which is why I take every opportunity to spend time with other's dogs whenever I can. I love going on hikes and walks with dogs, but I'm also just as happy to spend time at the park or snuggling with dogs at home, whatever your pet needs! I work in downtown Durango and usually have flexibility with my schedule to check on pets during the day to ensure they’re comfortable and get some fresh air. I only take one pet or one owner with multiple pets at a time, so your cherished loved ones will receive my undivided attention. *Pick up and drop off times between 7 AM-7 PM unless otherwise agreed upon by request. **Please note the amount of care hours per service: -House Sitting = 24 hours for $35, pro-rated for hours past 24 hour window -Drop-In Visits & Dog Walks are $15 for 30 minutes. (Prices above do not include additional dog or puppy rates) If you have any questions or special requests regarding these hours and rates, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Reviews
I was pretty nervous about having to leave my cats at home for trip that I had little notice for. Mandy was fantastic, and helped me feel comfortable about leaving my pets in her care. She even befriended my super shy cat to my surprise! I highly recommend Mandy to anyone considering using this service.
Mandy was fantastic with Sadie, my daughter-dog. Mandy took her on a hike and she even practiced commands with her. ?
Mandy is great with dogs! She regularly took our dog on long walks and helped us with his training. Benny loves Mandy and so do we. I highly recommend her!
Would and will use Mandy again.

A typical day
I live close to the ABC trail, Horse Gulch and the river trailI for easy access. I love taking dogs to the dog park, hikes, and possibly going to a river or lake for dogs to enjoy a swim when the weather permits. My policy is to always keep dogs on leashes, even the best trained ones, just to ensure you’re loved one never gets lost in the woods or mixed in a dog scuffle.
