Pet care experience
Sunshine Country Retreat
Sunshine Country Retreat Moto: A happy dog is an exercised dog. At Sunshine Country Retreat we value facilitating a great time for your furry friends while you are out living your best life too. We love getting outside and enjoying Durango paw style. I first started hosting pups through Rover when I lived in Tahoe City, Ca— and am really happy I am able to do the same here in Durango, Co.

Ratings and reviews
Ted had so much fun with Nicole and Aspen! We'll be playing again!
Nichole is an amazing with dogs. her home is a puppy wonderland. I am so grateful to have found such a kind pup lover to help out with my lab Penny, Her home and dog setup is safe, secure and perfect for dogs.
Nicole was great. She took the dogs for a walk and sent lots of pictures of the dogs having fun. We booked last minute with rough timelines and she was more than accommodating.
Hobbes had a great time. Received lots of pictures and updates. Aspen was a wonderful playful friend. Definitely will use again for daycare
Nichole was awesome from the time I requested to book until the day I picked up my pup from her house. We were traveling to Durango and took the train for the day. Nichole was flexible and accommodating on the hours. She sent photos of my dog and kept me updated on their activities. I felt comfortable and confident my pup was in good hands!
Nichole was great - friendly and easy to communicate with. She sent updates and pics and was flexible with pick up times. My pup came home happy and tired. Would gladly book her services again.

Schedule
Im a field biologist that opens up my availability when I’m off and have nothing but time for your furry family member. Don’t hesitate to reach out if my availability isn’t open— I’ve accepted several requests when my calendar has said I was unavailable. We live on 1.3 acres and our house backs up to the national forest. I’ll take your pup to a local trail for a walk/hike as weather permits.

A typical day
When you drop your companion off with me they will get plenty of exercise and will be ready to snooze when you pick them up! Whether we are playing fetch in the yard or heading to a local trail for a nice hike - exercise is paramount! If you have a pup that loves to cuddle and relax we can accommodate a cozy day too.
