Highlights
Pet care experience
Tate’s Doggie Daycare and Services
Conveniently located off HWY 24 near OCC. If you are visiting Colorado Springs, and need a space for Fido to be occupied so you can enjoy the Incline, Cog Railway, or an adventure that requires thumbs - leave them with me! Or if you are a local resident of the Old Colorado Cory area looking for consistent pet care, I am here to help any day of the week!! I Currently have two heeler mixes (7&9 years old) who are social butterfly’s and enjoy having friends over for playing in the yard and sharing snacks! My heart has a special place for senior dogs, as I had a JRT mix for 17 years. In college I worked at a Petco and was mentored by the dog trainer there. That experience helped me learn so much. I often pet sit for my parents who have 6 Rhodesian Ridgebacks, so I am comfortable with both small and large breeds. I would love the opportunity to host your dog at my home or be a guest in yours to keep them company!

Tatum took great care of our pups while we went to the zoo and dinner for the day!
Had a great experience with Tatum! She is very communicative, flexible, and willing to work with our schedules. Our pup has a great time each time she watches him!
Amazing dog sitter this was our first experience with a dog sitters and she blew it out of the park! Right away she made sure our dogs were comfortable and felt at home she send multiple pictures and updates every day. 100% recommend this sitter!!

Calendar and availability
Schedule
I am currently a stay at home dog mom! We get up early in the morning, about 4:30/5am. The dogs enjoy plenty of yard time and walks around the neighborhood during the day. Breakfast is usually kibble topped with vitamins and a farm fresh egg! Dinner is less exciting but they get plenty of treats to make up for it.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a fenced backyard and tend to hang out in the yard with the dogs, especially if I am watching a known fence jumper. When meeting new dogs I prefer using the backyard and letting one dog out at a time. I always want to make sure there is room for everyone to feel comfortable. I do have a kitchen divider gate to separate dogs for breakfast/dinner time. Our dogs are friendly with food, but I know guest dogs may feel unsure in new space at first. If I am coming to your house, I would prefer to have clear communication of where dog leash, harness, cat/dog food, toys, treats, etc are as I want to respect your home and not be poking about unnecessarily. I am happy to walk any dog that has appropriate leash manners, or if you have a yard I am happy to play with the dogs there or simply hang out with them so they can enjoy the sun. ☀️ I am not able to watch a cat in my home, I can only visit cats. My cat does not do well with other feline friends, and I have to respect that boundary.
