Pet care experience
I love animals! I am volunteer Pilot for Pilots N Paws. It’s a great operation rescuing & placing animals worldwide if your not familiar. I have completed my first level certification as a Service Animal trainer and continue my training. I’m currently working on my doctorate dissertation so I’m available to love & care for your friend full time! I started pet care at a very young age having grown up on a fully sustainable, off grid farm. I’ve cared for rabbits, cats, dogs, goats, horses, sheep, and chickens. I’ve always had animals throughout my life and currently have a 2 year old huskey named Nala. I’ve fostered everything from pit bulls to chihuahuas. I’ve cared for many rescues throughout my life and raised 9 abandoned pups & 2 strays from birth in the jungle of Costa Rica.
Reviews
Penelope is a dog whisperer…. I have 2 pooches, one slightly blind and deaf, the other a bit nervous. Penelope took them in, ensured a smooth transition into her home, and shared so many photos and videos of them during their stay - indoors and out - that it was simply an amazing experience for my two little guys, and for this guy. Thank you, Penelope!!
Penelope was great looking after out dogs for the day while we were out on the mountains; she asked about how our dogs reacted to things to best look after them and she looked after them like they were her own. I'd happily have Penelope look after our dogs in the future!
Very professional and my fur baby loves her!
Penelope was a great communicator who shared updates, videos and pictures of our animals while we were away. She was flexible to our schedule and even went the extra mile by ensuring our flights had landed in Denver before taking off. We would definitely use her again.

I promise your baby will be loved and treated as my own. I travel occasionally and have to leave my Nala from time to time so I truly understand the importance of finding the perfect fit! You won’t go wrong choosing us.
Home
Information Penelope S. would like to know about your pet
I would prefer a meet & greet unless pet sitting is a normal occurrence and/or show you my home. I also know that’s not always an option if your traveling through so we will make something work! Please let me know if off leash is an option, if you have a tracker, how your friend does with new surroundings, or has special needs. My intention is to provide a home away from home they will love to return to every chance they get & have him/her return to you happy, healthy, & safe!
A typical day
I offer full day back country hikes and snow shoeing adventures, dog park outings, and easy trail walks.My Nala loves to snuggle and share but I do have extra crates if you prefer separation. Again, just ask if you have special requests, I’m happy to accommodate.

Availability
You can reach me 24/7 except when we’re out hiking. My home I own is on 2 acres and surrounded by miles of open space and only 14 miles from Vail. I have a very private 12 mile hiking trail on private land in my backyard and just a 5 minute walk away is a trail along a river that is 16 miles rt. My pup and I walk it approx. 1.5 hrs every early morning as part of our routine. We also both have a mandatory “stretch our legs” walk approx. every couple hours which means yours will as well if he/she is up for it! I’ve a backpack for those that enjoy the fresh air but don’t enjoy walking. I am able to provide pick up and drop off or meet you in Minturn at no extra charge. If you’d like us to stay at yours we’d be happy to do that as well!
