Dog Walking Palmer Lake

About: Our pets are our family and they should be treated as such ❤️. I am a full time nurse and do not need this job but I have two dogs that were very difficult and stubborn to train and I would have loved to have someone like me to be there if I went out of town or on vacation because I only ever trusted myself with them. I never went on vacation in their younger years because I was so scared someone would be mean to them or not care for them like I would if I boarded them. So I have decided to do this part time because every pet should be treated with love and care because they ARE our family ❤️🐾. I assure you, you won’t be disappointed if you trusted me with your family. I love all animals so much and quite frankly we don’t deserve their love and loyalty ❤️. Please choose me! I am working full time so I won’t be able to take all jobs but please reach out and I will try to make it happen. My schedule fluctuates so I can’t give certain days but if I am off work I will be there. I will treat your dog as you would just let me know any restrictions, dietary concerns, medications if they take them, certain ways they like things done or special things you would like done for your loved one and it will be done.

“Emily did an amazing job with Jake, my 2 year old Golden Retriever. I can't believe the difference in Jake over the last 4 days. He is much more relaxed on our walks. Thank you very much. I look forward to having you care for Jake while I'm at work. I know he is in good hands.”

About: I graduated with a 4.0 in Vet Assisting at PIMA. I've grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. I personally own a 5 year old English Bulldog, a 13 year old cat and my 12 year old leopard gecko has passed. I love animal-loving people, animals and helping them! I have full availability at the moment as I look for other employment. I would love to give some of my attention to a pet in need of sitting or daily walks! My dog stays in a crate while I'm away from home and at night. He likes to snuggle every morning. We go to the dog park at least twice a week. My cat always has food, fresh water, and a cleaned daily litter box. My lizard had a clean cage and was fed 1 to every 3 days with meal worms or a super worm as a treat.

About: Animals have always been one of the biggest joys in my life. I’ve spent years caring for pets of all ages and personalities - from playful kittens and energetic puppies to sweet senior pets who need a little extra patience and love. In addition to having my own wonderful pack at home, I’ve fostered animals for the Humane Society and volunteered with local rescues. Those experiences have taught me that every pet is unique, and I take the time to understand their routines, personalities, and what help them feel safe and happy! I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs and cats and understand the gentle care, patience, and attention they deserve. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, medication or just someone to keep them company while you’re away, Ill care for them as if they were my own. I am a stay at home mom to two boys, I stay very active outside and I am always around for you pets needs. Pet care is a perfect fit for my schedule. I understand having a stranger in your home can be stressful. I think a meet and greet before had is a great idea to put you and your animals at ease. I am very respectful of your space and home.

About: I offer attentive, reliable pet care tailored to each dog’s needs. I have a 10 month old Golden Retriever who is friendly, playful, and loves every dog, creating a positive and social environment. I’m experienced with puppy routines, basic training reinforcement, and administering medications. I prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication so you can feel confident your pet is in loving, capable hands. I work from home most days, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and supervision, and I can easily adjust my schedule to match your pet’s routine. I do not have a fenced yard but our apartment has a fenced dog park. I provide a safe, loving environment where pets are treated like family. My own pet is my world, and I bring that same level of care, attention, and responsibility to every animal I look after.

About: I grew up with 6 bulldogs who needed attention both medically, physically, and emotionally. I genuinely love dogs and treat all of them like my own; understanding that dogs are family! I recently graduated from high school ant Palmer Ridge and am attending HVAC school in the fall at Pikes Peak ( this program will be part-time leaving me time to care for dogs). I enjoy caring for dogs in their own environment as I have found many dogs become stressed when they have to adapt to new environments. I appreciate detailed instructions on your dogs feeding and activity level to in order to best take care of them!

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, from friends to family, to mostly the luxury of my own home. I have had the pleasure to live with six big beautiful dogs. Three Great Danes, Two Great Dane/ Saint Bernards, and a Rottweiler. I have taken care of animals all shapes, sizes, and ages. I promise to love your babies as I love mine! I am in school part time, so I will have plenty of time to watch over your babies and make sure they have plenty of necessities to get them through the day/night. With providing the service to stay in your home, I will make sure to treat your home with respect and care. All while making sure it is a safe and happy environment for your animals while I’m there.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12, I currently have 3 of my own. I have been doing animal behavior and training courses for eight years, and understand the best ways to make a dog feel comfortable and confident. I have worked with puppies all the way to senior dogs. I am also comfortable working with reactive dogs (to an extent). My own dog is reactive, and I know the best methods to keep a dog focused and safe during a high stress event. I will always do my best to keep the routine your animals have, as change can be stressful to them. I am a hybrid student so I am extremely flexible and able to come spend as much time as needed with your pet(s). I can accommodate almost any needs! Making sure a dog is safe is the number one priority. I will always ask your dogs comfort level around strangers, new dogs, cars, squirrels… and so on. This will allow me to tailor my care to ensure your dog gets the best experience possible and you don’t have to worry about anything happening.

“Super pleasant and you can tell she really has a love for dogs. Our boy Shadow really liked her and she took him on a nice long walk. Will definitely use again!”

About: I pride myself on being dependable, patient, and attentive to each dog's individual needs. I understand that every dog has a different personality, energy level, and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks or prefers a slower pace and extra reassurance, I'll adapt my care to what works best for them. I've cared for dogs with different temperaments, including one with height anxiety, so I'm comfortable staying calm and adjusting my approach to help dogs feel safe and secure. My time at military college and volunteer work ant Zoos also strengthened my discipline, responsibility, and attention to detail—qualities I bring to every visit. You can count on me to follow your instructions carefully, communicate with you, and treat your pet with the same kindness and respect I'd want for my own. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life. I have three dogs of my own, including two puppies I'm currently raising and training, so I'm used to planning my day around walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and giving them the attention they need. Caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, not just something I fit into my schedule. I'm also a part-time college student, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care. I make it a priority to be dependable, communicate with owners, and ensure every pet receives the same level of care and attention I'd want for my own dogs. I care for every pet with patience, consistency, and kindness. I know that every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to understand what makes them feel safe and happy. Whether it's going for a walk, playing their favorite game, providing fresh food and water, or simply keeping them company, I make sure they're getting the attention and care they deserve. I follow each owner's instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), exercise routines, and any special requests. I also pay close attention to a dog's body language and behavior so I can respond to their needs and help them feel comfortable. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel confident, relaxed, and cared for while you're apart.

“Megan did a great job! She replied to my request quickly and showed up on time. She did great with the million things I told her about the dogs. She is a very sweet person and the dogs loved her immediately when they met her. I 100% trust her and would refer others to her.”

About: I was a certified veterinary technician for many years, obtaining my associates degree in veterinary technology from Front Range Community College, and obtaining my internship hours at Colorado State University school of veterinary medicine. I am comfortable taking care of all ages of pets from puppies and kittens to the geriatrics who need medication and extra care.. I am a stay at home mom with my youngest kids now in high school. I am available most days for same-day appointments and my schedule is extremely flexible. Your pets will receive love affection and their daily needs met during their drop in appointments. Walks are also available if that is part of the service that they require.

About: Hi there! I'm a passionate animal lover with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. Whether it's dogs, cats, horses, or other animals, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I'm currently a second-year veterinary student and hold a Bachelor's degree in Equine Science. Before vet school, I worked as a veterinary technician, giving me extensive experience handling animals, recognizing signs of illness, administering medications, and providing compassionate care. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. I currently share my home with my dachshund, Elsa, and my horse, so I know the love and individualized care that every animal deserves. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visits, overnight care, medication administration, or just plenty of companionship while you're away, you can have peace of mind knowing they'll be in experienced, caring hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I am currently home for the summer after completing my second year of vet school. My schedule is very flexible and would love to spend my time with all animals. I care for my patients and clients like I do my own fur babies. They get the most of my attention and when possible, love to explore with them as well.

About: My family and I love animals! My daughter (17) has neighbors scheduling their vacation around her schedule so she can cat sit. My son (20) house and pet sits - chickens, dogs, and cats oh my! He also has experience with lizards and snakes. We had a bunny that we loved for 8 years and I am all about the dogs and walkies!! I would love the opportunity to meet you and your fur babies. My son and daughter also have flexible schedules too.We are a family that loves animals! We love animals and will treat them as our own. We recently had a family tell us their sweet dog was a bit mopey when she got home because they weren't able to walk her or play with her as much as we did :)

“Stefanie was absolutely amazing with our two mutts. One of them is more mellow and the other is a very feisty young puppy, so it can be interesting walking them both. She quickly picked up on their different temperaments and approached them accordingly. She texted adorable updates and pictures for each walk. She was also so considerate she even offered to clean up the floor a bit since the walks were very muddy. Not only is she extremely reliable, she went above and beyond offering to help since we had a water leak but were out of state. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone.”

About: I have had a dog since I was 4, who recently passed but am friends with many more friends that have dogs, and I have dogsat for them too! I take care of pets every day, I also take care of my friends dogs! I have also cared for cats, I love pets and could fit them into my daily and weekly very well! I will play, walk, feed, any pet depending on the owners needs! I care deeply for animals and will make sure they get the love they deserve!

About: My husband Zach and I have transitioned from petsitting for friends and family to petsitting across Colorado and beyond. Over the past 18 months, we've booked 35+ house sits in 8 different countries, across 3 continents. When we aren't traveling internationally, we love to meet new fur friends closer to home. We have experience with senior dogs and cats requiring medication and specialized care, with rescues who often have unique and specific needs and adolescent dogs and cats that need their training reinforced. While my husband typically works an in-person job during the week, I am currently working remotely part-time and can offer my full attention to pet-care. Despite working, we are both available any day of the week and can build our schedules around your needs! We want your pets to feel comfortable and at ease during our time together so we prefer to meet all clients beforehand to build a relationship of trust and friendship on your pet's terms.

“Cody gives Lily a great walk 2x per week. She is an anxious, excitable dog, and his demeanor puts her at ease, and his walking pace keeps her fit! We really appreciate his giving her extra attention when we are busy during the week. We were hesitant first time Rover users, and now Highly recommend!”
