Dog Walkers in Paonia, CO

About: Hi, I'm Brianna! I've owned and taken care of dogs (large and small), cats & other small domestic animals for as long as I can remember. I've always loved and connected with animals & felt drawn to caring for them. My goal is to ensure your animals are happy and healthy, as I treat them all as my own, & that you will also have the peace of mind that they are in good hands. I have personally raised a puppy, & have lots of experience with a wide variety of dogs, including seniors, special needs & larger breeds. I know that above all else, exercise & human companionship are some of the most important elements to ensure a happy, healthy pup and I am happy to be able to provide that service! We live on a large fenced-in property (14 acres of mostly fields), so your pup will have plenty of room to roam & play! I offer daily walks/runs as well, whatever it takes to meet your dog's exercise needs. I love hosting multiple pups & providing daily updates with lots of pictures! I do have 2 sweet pups and a kiddo of my own, so getting along well with other dogs & children is a must. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies :) I currently have a completely open and flexible schedule as I am a former stay-at-home mom .. so working around your schedule and your animals' needs will not be an issue at all! As I have experience with a wide variety of dogs, safety is number one. I will always prioritize safety above all else to ensure that your animal is healthy & happy in my care! I also have lots of experience hosting multiple dogs of varying ages, energy levels & personalities, so I am very aware of all the doggie dynamics to ensure a positive, fun experience for all :)

About: I grew up on a ranch caring for horses, dogs, cats, and other animals. I have also worked with therapy animals. Years of experience with pets and other animals as well. I work from home via my laptop, so my schedule can be very flexible. I can build my online work around walks and dog/cat sitting as needed. I will provide companionship and play/exercise to check in on your fur-baby while you are away at work, or I am happy to dog/cat sit in home if you are away for longer trips. I will take care of all dietary/health and exercise needs and provide lots of fun and comfort while you are gone. I will treat your pet as I would my own.

“Brenda was terrific! Ollie went for walks and played with Brenda’s kids & her dog Violet. Ollie gets bored being home by himself and this was a perfect solution. Thank you, Brenda, for a wonderful experience!”

About: I was with my boy Sylo for almost 14 years now, and I know how incredibly important it is to trust that your companion is being *very* well taken care of. I live on a quiet piece of land right outside of Paonia. Daily walks are non-negotiable, and I love to get out on mellow adventures as much as possible. I go on a 30-45 minute walk every single morning, and another long walk every evening. I work from home so I make sure to take them outside for potty breaks or short walks very often! We go on leash walks every day- but if we go on an adventure, I am more than happy to keep your companion on a long leash if that makes you feel more comfortable.

“Aubrey was awesome! Thank you for everything!”

About: My wife and I both pet sit for various different families in our surrounding area. We also have three fur babies of our own and are looking to expand our customer base. We are able to integrate our pet sitting into our everyday schedule. We are available through weekends and holidays with advance notice. Get in touch and we can surely make it work. We care for our pets with daily walks and playtime. We ensure that all their diet and medical needs are met daily. We also make ourselves available overnight if necessary. Anxious pets require more attention and we are open to more involved sittings.

About: I have owned Rotties primarily and now love and care for a greyhound mix and a chihuahua mix. I trained dogs and love the interaction. I am currently working part time but hoping to make this my primary source of providing for my family. I can make myself available anytime. My profile says that I am in Snowmass but I live full time in Marble so some requests may be approved, as the crow flies, but are outside my service area. Please contact me with any questions about location. Your pets safety and security is priority. Know that I will prioritize their emotional and physical wellbeing at all times. Animals are precious family members.

About: It doesn’t matter if it’s dogs, chickens, horses, or kids, all feel comfortable and drawn to me. As a parent and animal lover and experienced caregiver, I bring my maturity, reliability, and professionalism to every client and am adaptable to special needs and circumstances. I am fortunate to spend much of my days outdoors and happily travel between Paonia, Crested Butte and Gunnison. Animals in my care receive dedicated attention and ample exercise. In my home, I will offer multiple walks, hikes, or runs per day. While in your home, I can accommodate crate training, walks, and hikes- or any special needs or care instructions.

“Absolutely wonderful experience with Rebekah! Pancake and Karate were also more than satisfied with their walk.”

About: I am based in Carbondale, CO. I work remotely, so I'm able to care for pets and homes throughout the valley! I've cared for my own dogs, roommates' dogs, friends' pets, Trusted Housesitter stays, and Rover sits over the past 10 years. I've cared for dogs from puppyhood to 13 years old. I've also cat-sat for friends over the years. I currently live in an apartment by myself, so I have the freedom to board at my home until July 2026. I'm also happy to watch them from the comfort of their home. My schedule is really flexible with my remote job, and I'm happy to take them on walks and potty/play breaks throughout the day. The longest I've watched someone's pet was for 2 months, and I loved it! Feel free to reach out with any other questions! A note on transportation - I have a regular vehicle (Subaru Outback) in addition to my ambulance camper. I also have a bike I often enjoy cycling throughout the valley, so parking availability at your home should not be an issue. I currently work Mon-Fri remotely. I am very attentive and love morning, midday, fetch, and evening walks. I can take them to the dog park or on hikes, or if they're good with bikes, I can take them on even longer run/bike rides. I am very respectful and clean when staying at a client's house. I treat it like my own (if not better). I love going for walks with your pup and keeping them on a leash. I also don't give in to the cute puppy eyes when I'm eating my food and keep them to their parents' approved food and treats.
