Highlights
Pet care experience
Big dog. Little dog... all welcome!
I've worked with dogs, cats, and horses since I was 5 years old. I grew up with a black lab and he was the best dog a girl could ask for! I was also blessed to work with sled dogs while living in Alaska and even started a dog business, with my sister, for a few years. My grandma is a dog show judge and former breeder, so it runs in the family!

Ratings and reviews
Our pups loved their time at Virginia’s place! It’s set up so well for convenience for the dogs and owners. The pups were so happy and got to play a lot. They were tuckered out when we got home that night. We were visiting Durango from Arizona but we will definitely come back next time we w are in town.
Virginia was great. She has a very good set up for taking care of multiple dogs. Excellent and prompt communications. We would use her again!
She was extremely kind and personable. She took care of our dogs as if they were her own. If I’m ever in Durango again and in need of a dog sitter, I will be using her.
We felt totally at ease leaving our dog with Virginia. A wonderful place for our dog to spend the day while we spent the day rafting. She was so easy to communicate with and we’ll definitely use her again for other day trips while we’re visiting Durango.
Lucy had a great time. Would definitely use again.
Thank you for taking such good care of Mabel and Logray. They quickly bonded with you. Wewere grateful for your great communication, flexibility, and overall caring nature towards our dogs.

Schedule
I am a stay at home mom and love working on our land/farm. So I’m available just about all day, any day! I do have church commitments Sunday mornings but will be sure to let your pup(s) out before and after that.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Since I am home most of the day, every day, your pups will get lots of play time and room to run. We have 3 acres and a good chunk is fenced in. We also have cameras set up to keep an eye on the pups when we are not home - running errands, dinner in town, etc. If you would like, we can discuss extra training (leash work, basic commands, etc) as I have experience in that area as well. We live 9 mins away from the airport and are a great drop off/pick up location for your furry friends!

A typical day
We have a big fenced area, so your pup would have free range of the whole yard, plus we recently installed a dog door into our garage where they have full roam of and can cool off, snooze and relax in that area. Plenty of water and shade provided too! If a dog is good off leash and loves to play fetch, I’m happy to throw the ball or frisbee in our surrounding acreage with our pups, who are great off leash.
