Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard (xeroscaped), and a playful pup to keep your pup entertained. If. your pup is able I take my pup out by 7:00 - 8:00 AM for a walk to avoid the heat, and hot pavement on their paws. Then in the winter I adjust to midday so it’s a little warmer or if the pups are amendable to coats/sweater I do have them as well.

Information Nicholas J. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any special accommodations your pet may need. I do not mind if pets are in the bed, and I do have stairs for the bed because of my corgi. If your dog has a cooling jacket, I do keep a bucket water in my vehicle to soak them.

A typical day

Almost everyday I take my dog out to Devil's Canyon Trailhead in Fruita, CO before it gets too spicy outside. I love playing fetch with my dog often in open areas, but we also love going to dog parks, and there are plenty around the area.
