About: I have personally owned dogs as long as I can remember. From Rottweilers to Chihuahuas. I have dog sat numerous times, between boarding at my house and house sitting at a client’s home. I’m a true dog-lover at heart. I love dogs in all shapes and sizes. They are the most loving and most loyal. They really are better than most people! Lol. I have a sweet, energetic, laid-back, one and a half year old mini poodle. I also have a 3 year old hedgehog, but since he’s nocturnal and likes to keep to himself, pets don’t interact with him. He’s caged in my room and will be out of the way. I also have experience in taking care of senior dogs including: administering meds, feeding picky eaters, helping with potty breaks, helping with walks, etc. I have personally trained all of the dogs that I have owned. I have lots of puppy experience and don’t believe in “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.” as I have also trained older dogs that I have rescued. I currently work from home and I am usually off by late afternoon/early evening. I can be home with your baby. We can play and take as many potty breaks as needed. I also don’t work on the weekends and like to fill my weekends up with fun activities! I have a fenced in backyard and a safe neighborhood to go on walks. Your doggo would have complete freedom of the house (as long as I’m home, of course). Doggies are allowed on the furniture and allowed to sleep with me. If they are crate trained, of course that’s okay too.

About: I have a lot of experience with various animals besides dogs and cats. I also have worked with live stock, lizards and exotics. I worked at a massive boarding kennel were I learned to administrate various medications pills and insulin shots, learned basic training techniques, and over all general care for domestic animals. From this experience I started my own pet sitting business which I did off and on for a few years. Then pick up some business for a little extra cash in dog walking and pet sitting. I have taken a break from that to raise my daughter and become more established at my current job, but miss working with animals and would like to get back to helping those I can. I mainly would like to assist in dog walking, but if some pet sitting needs to be had, I'd be more than happy to assist there as well. I found from working in the boarding kennel, many dogs do find it more comfortable in a home setting then a kennel. I do work full time, M-Th 6:30 to 5 pm. I can take in 1 to 2 dogs in my home during this time, I do have a dog door and do come home for an hr for lunch. I do have a dog, so any dogs in my home would need to get along with mine. However, I can do dog walking in the evenings on Thursdays starting at 6 pm to 8 pm during summer months. Otherwise Fridays and weekends are best. Any time Friday, though occasionally I may not be available in the afternoons due to dropping off my daughter, Sat I can be available anytime, and Sunday Mornings and Evenings are best. Some afternoons are available if I don't have to pick up my daughter. I have a dog door with a 4 ft fence and a 6 ft fence on the sides separating my neighbors and I. If your dog is playful, I have a very playful and submissive dog. I'm very respectful of other peoples space and am great at communicating the needs of the owner for their pet. I'm accustomed to following written instructions and do like to meet ahead of time to meet the pet and go over feeding and/or medication instructions. I may have my 5 year old daughter with me, however, if the animal does not do well with children, please communicate that so no incidences happen. If I cannot have my daughter around, will be harder for me to commit to any sort of sitting or walking.

“Melissa is great! She has been sending me wonderful updates about me pup and spends lots of time playing with her while they are on their walks. My go to!”

About: I grew up with cats and dogs and I'm familiar with many personalities. I'm also open to caring for any kind of pet; snakes, birds, hamsters, ferrets, fish (use the cat rate). My friends love having me house sit their dogs and cats while I work from home and they can go on vacation without worry. Currently between jobs so I have full availability! As a house sitter and working from home, I can comfort your pet all day while they miss you! Take them for walks and play with them morning, lunch, and evening. Playing fetch and tag in the yard and tire them out! I give the animals respect for their house. Clean litter boxes daily and ensure they continue their routines and rituals. Learn how they like to play and interact.

About: I've been caring for the pets of friends, family, and neighbors since I was a kid. I've trained puppies since I was little, and when I got my Golden Doodle, I did three years of dog training through 4-H. Those years gave me a load of hands on time with dogs of all temperament and training levels. I've cared for a lot of different animals, at varying levels of needed attention, from dogs and cats, to birds and reptiles, even horses and livestock. I love spending time with animals, whether hooved, pawed, or scaled, and I'd love to care for your pets like they're my own :) I am currently unemployed, and love being around dogs, so I have more than enough time to play with and spend time with your pups! I have a lot of experience with drop in visits/sitting, and would love to play with and take care of your dogs in the environment they're used to and comfortable in.

About: I'm an avid dog lover and aspiring dog trainer ready to commit and dedicate my time to dogs in my spare time, hoping to eventually transition it to a full time business. I absolutely love dogs! I've grown up with pets all my life, and have personally owned 6 (including our feline friends) fur babies! I love puppies, but specialize with rescue dogs and large breeds like great danes! I love being active with all dogs! If you have special needs for them or special requirements/desires for them, I am more than happy to oblige! I will love and care for your loved one's like they are my own! I look forward to meeting and taking care of your fur babies! If you ever have any questions or concerns about me or my care-taking ability, please don't hesitate to call or text! I currently work full time, but I am free at 3pm-8pm everyday for dog walking and doggy day care! I have availability all day Monday and Tuesday for ALL of my services! If you're wondering about scheduling services on a day my availability is shown as unavailable, please contact me and we can work a time out for those days! I have 2 very well behaved and socialized dogs. My great dane loves other dog companions to play with, she will even play with the feline friends if they let her! My labrynese is calm, older and wiser. Neither are aggressive or territorial. They have a solid routine but also adapt to schedule changes very well if need be. I have kennels in the backyard and plenty of space for them to run and plenty of water for them to hydrate!

“Always amazing, super reliable, and great with our dogs❤️”

About: I have been around animals my entire life! I took an interest in animal care when our family dog was a senior, and was diagnosed with kidney failure. A little while after she was diagnosed, we got a puppy. She was supposed to be another family dog, she just liked me better. Taking care of a puppy and a senior dog was tough at times, but there was never a dull moment! A while after our senior dog passed away my puppy was diagnosed with a thyroid issue. So giving medication to your pups is not an issue! Feeling accomplished, knowing your dogs are very happy and healthy. With you putting the time and energy into helping them grow. Loving pets every single day is just good for the soul. My pets are very routine-oriented, and due to this I will learn about your pups schedule and the little quirks and stick to them! With lots of love and attention.

About: Come visit the place that has their mountain on every license plate in Colorado! Want a day to explore Florence, Cañon City, or the Royal Gorge? Your Pet Deserves the Best. I have two dogs of my own. They have never complained about a bad walk. We have a .27 long driveway to walk their energy out. I am retired and available all day long. We have a fenced in pen for dogs to do their business in and maybe get to meet Charlie our other dog. He loves to play. We also have a long driveway about .52 miles after the round trip for pack walk on a nice day. We have a barn for bad weather or hot days. I have two dogs one of which loves to play non-stop. The other just likes to sleep all day. I like to teach tricks and reward for great behavior after a long walk.

About: I have cared for many animals over the years, and always treat them as if they were my own. I strive to make your animals feel comfortable and loved while you’re away!

I do not offer services out of my home due to having other animals, but I’m more than happy to care for your dogs just as you would if you were home!

“Brooke was right on time and I could see she likes what she does. My dogs had a nice walk on a day that I was feeling under the weather and had decided to give Rover a try. She even put up with my Swaggz rolling around under some trees being a big goofy butt.”

About: I've taken care of dogs and various other animals for 9 years now. We have 2 dogs of our own a GSP puppy and a creme Labrador. They are both friendly pups. I am currently working part time at AMR and am a stay at home mom full time due to my daughters care needs. We are home daily and would be around to play with your fur family and keep them company while you are gone! We allow dogs inside and on the furniture. We have a fenced in front yard that the dogs can go outside and potty and play in. They can go on walks as we live on a almost 3 acre farm.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I grew up on a family farm in the Midwest, we raised multiple breeds and 4H projects included dog training. I helped establish two dog training programs in two prisons in the Midwest. I served for a few years on the board of a nonprofit no kill shelter in the Midwest. I have two American Shelter Dogs that are well socialized and love going out on the trails. Both behaved well enough I am 100% comfortable off leash as long as trail rules allow. My boys are just part of life in the country. We live on 40 acres. I have 1.5 miles of walking trails. We go on regular walks at home for the week we don’t make it to the trails. I am self employed and try to maintain an available schedule. My home offers an open floor plan and the outdoors offers 40 acres with 1.5 miles of maintained walking trails. Outside time with your pup will be on leash until I am comfortable with our bond. Visits at your home will be an opportunity for play time in their own environment based on their likes and needs.
