Dog Walkers in Minturn, CO

“Do not look any further. Stop. Hire Karen, now. We were in the Vail area for a week over Thanksgiving and Karen watched our two labs for 5 days and we could not be any happier!!! She was amazing. Our dogs were taken on multiple walks, hikes, and outings per day. They went sledding and shared videos of our puppy pulling the sled. We got multiple pictures, texts, and videos during the day to keep us posted and they were always walking, playing, or snuggly WITH Karen on the couch and good Lord it was cute!! She is an all-star and you couldn't ask for a better fur baby sitter. My kids wanted to give her five bajillioon stars, but it wasn't an option. She's the best!”

“Jack has been so wonderful and accommodating to our busy holiday schedule these past few weeks. Showing up on time, taking our boy on amazing hikes and showing him lots of love and care. Couldn’t have done it without him! Highly recommend!”

“Kira has excellent timing with commands and is firm but sweet with her leadership. Per our request Kira took Captain on a short walk and she played with Captain indoors due to the heat. Our pup instantly loved her. She will absolutely be one of our regular walkers.”

“Alex was amazing with our puppy Dex! He took great care of him on their walks and Dex always came back happy and tired (exactly what we wanted)!”

About: I grew up around dogs and I've had my own pup, a 15-year old mixed breed named Luka, for the last 15 years. Whether it’s a chill walk on the bike path or an adventurous hike, dogs know how to have the best time and I love being around them. While I’ve never owned a cat, I’ve also helped care for friends’ cats over the years. My goal is to provide your dog with a safe, fun, and satisfying experience that meets their needs and gives you peace of mind. I offer dog walking (solo or with Luka if your dog likes friends), drop ins for both dogs and cats, doggy daycare, and boarding. For doggy daycare and boarding, I prefer to schedule a meet and greet ahead of time if posdible to make sure our dogs get along (Luka is pretty laidback and has hosted many dogs). Please let me know what you are looking for and we'll see if it’s a good fit! I work remotely from home and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to easily provide your dog with plenty of exercise and companionship. Your dog’s safety is my priority. Before caring for your dog, I want to best understand your pet’s personality and needs. I will respect all your requests and preferences, especially with regards to interactions with other dogs, whether your dog can be off leash, etc.

“Jade is the best! We have a very high-maintenance Belgian Malinois who is not a fan of strangers, so finding the right person was incredibly important to us. Jade went completely above and beyond by doing multiple meetings to make sure he felt safe and comfortable with her. Her patience, calm demeanor, and gentle approach made all the difference. She truly took the time to understand his personality and earned his trust at his pace — something that does not come easily with him. We feel so lucky to have found her and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone. Thank you for going the extra mile in every possible way!”

About: I grew up having dogs and cats in my home and have been taking care of families and neighbors pets since I was 9! Recently trained our puppy with my mom and played a big part in the later years of our elderly pup before he passed. I am responsible and love to play with and enrich your pets! I am working part time right now with very flexible hours so I can fit your pet perfectly into my schedule! I am only working around 2 days per week! In your home I will be very respectful and make sure your pet is safe and will not get into any trouble! I will make sure they get the care they need along with some play time and snacks!

“Grace was very accommodating and communication was easy! Daisy seemed very happy with the walk. I appreciated that Grace was available to come a second time, when I realized we wouldn't be back until late. I would definitely use Grace again!”

About: I've been caring for dogs my entire life and bring a calm, attentive and intuitive approach to every dog i welcome into my home. I grew up caring for dogs and have owned both Golden Retrievers and a long-haired Dachshund, giving experience with a wide range of temperaments-from energetic and playful to gentle and sensitive. I provide a structured, safe and loving environment where dogs can feel at ease while maintaining their normal routines. I'm highly attentive to each dogs individual needs, whether it's exercise, companionship or simply a calm space to relax. Having hosted many dogs in my home and being a former dog owner looking for care over the years, I understand how important it is for both pets and owners to feel confident and comfortable. My 9-year-old son Bobby is kind, respectful and experienced with dogs adding to the warm, family style environment your dog will be a part of. Nestled in Red Cliff, our home offers a true mountain escape- endless fresh air, trails, a dogs dream playground I currently have full availability, I'm home throughout the day to provide loving, attentive care, regular walks, playtime and calm, consistent routine for every dog. Our home features a partially fenced yard, a peaceful low flow creek on the property and easy access to Red Cliffs dog friendly trails for leashed or unleashed adventures in the backcountry.

About: Life is better with dogs and I often say we don’t deserve them! I’ve grown up with dogs and currently have 4 adorable miniature dachshunds. I wanted 2 more but my partner threw down the hammer on me saying no. I’ve used Rover in the past and had some really amazing experiences and one, not so great experience, so I understand the value in finding the right person to stay, play and take care of your loved ones. I’ve always valued my caretaker sending plenty of photos and videos while I’m away, so I always said if I did this for others, I would do the same! Trust and reliability are the most important things I’ve always looked for in having someone stay in my home with my pets while I’m away, and that’s what you get from me! I am currently retired and am fully available day and night! My partner and our 4 dogs stay at our house in Denver full time, and I stay at my house here in the Vail Valley, so there are no conflicts with my schedule. I would be the only person taking care of your pets! Pets are children. Always have been and always will be in my book. I love to play with, walk and snuggle them. I like to give them the same unconditional love they give us.

“So helpful!! Couldn’t thank her enough. Took good care of Maria.”

“Mackenzie was great! On time and flexible with schedule. I would use her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs majority of my life. Growing up I’be had 3 husky mix breeds all coming from animal shelters. I have always had the responsibility of taking them on walks, playing with them and feeding them. In high school I also volunteered at the animal shelter near me and took care of all the dogs and cats there. I recently also became a loving cat owner and just moved to the area. I hope to meet you and your furry friend soon. I recently moved to the Vail area and am working with Vail resorts. I will be working Monday- Saturday from 9am-6 with a day off during the week. I am open to doing dog walks, house checks, letting your dog out or caring for your cat before work, during my lunch break and at any hours after work and any days I have off. I am currently living in employee housing and at this time could not have other pets in my home due to the policies enforced. I am open to caring for your pet on your home, in whichever way makes you the comfortable.

About: I grew up on a small farm where I helped care for our dogs, cats, guinea pigs, chickens, ducks and rabbits. Now I have a rambunctious coonhound who always wants to head out for a walk and can play well after he should. I enjoy taking him out to dog parks, walks in open spaces and off leash time in the National Forest. I would love to help you with your pups walking needs. whether you have a high energy dogs that needs some trail running, or a dog that would prefer a more mundane city park I can accommodate either one and all dogs in between. I have a job that affords the ability to take a dog walk or stop over for a quick feeding at any time of day or night I only frequent parks and areas that are safe so me and your dog will be as well. I would only walk your dog by itself or with his siblings. Also I would not go to off-leash dog parks unless specifically requested.

About: I am self employed and work from home so have plenty of time to give attention to your pup. I have a 13 year old dog named Bruce. He enjoys slower walks and hikes but I’m happy to do longer walks or runs with your younger dog. Bruce gets along with all dogs and I would prefer yours does too! I have plenty of time throughout the day to walk, play, etc with your dog. Just let me know what their activity level is, off leash guidelines, and any other quirks. My yard is on the Gore creek, not fenced in. My dog and other visiting dogs always play down by the creek. If your dog is not good off leash or you don’t want them near the creek, I will keep them on leash at all times.

About: I have always had a love for animals. I have had dogs always growing up and have taken care of lots of different animals. I have a 3 old aussie who has lots of energy and loves to play! I currently work part time serving in a restaurant, so my schedule is pretty flexible and willing to be moved around for pet care needs! I live right by a very nice trail that allows dogs to be off leash. I have a 3 old aussie at home who loves to play and for long walks and hikes.

“Earl was great. This was our first time taking our dog Toby. I would highly recommend Earl. It was a great experience and will call him again when we return back to Vail.”

“She was very responsive and easy to communicate with throughout the booking. My dog was well taken care of and everything went smoothly. I would definitely recommend her and book with her again.”
