“Ricky is the best. My dog Maggie is kind of a complicated personality and he totally "got" her. Maggie stayed with Ricky all day so that I could go off and see the town, go to the Hot Springs, and hit some trails. Thank you for taking care of my girl, Ricky, and we'll see you next time!!”
“Katy and her family were awesome! She took a last-minute request, squeezed in a Meet & Greet to make sure our dog and her pets got along, and she treated our dog like her own. Katy was great with communication and pictures of his stay - we could tell he was one happy pup!! We will definitely be using Katy again!!”
“Haruko took great care of Elvis and shared some great pictures and of them having fun together. Her and her partner Dean are both great and we will be using them anytime we need a rover in the Telluride area. Thanks Haruko!!”
“Sierra is amazing! Our dog had the best time and learned to run with the pack thanks to her training dogs! She was always quick to respond and sent some great pictures. We will definitely return when we are back in Telluride.”
About: At home, my husband, daughter and I share life with our senior dog, two cats, and a lively flock of chickens. Caring for animals is second nature to me, something I’ve done since I was a kid. My 4-year-old daughter has grown up the same way—gentle, respectful, and just as smitten with animals as I am, probably even more so! I meet every animal where they are. I know the little details matter—how they like to be greeted, what helps them feel safe, and when they just need quiet company. My goal is to make your pets feel as comfortable and cared for as they do with you. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I’m home most of the day and only ever out for short errands—usually no more than a couple of hours. My husband also works from home, so there’s almost always someone here. That means your pets get plenty of attention, companionship, and care! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I follow your directions closely so their routine stays just the way you like it. In my home, I provide a calm, safe space where pets can settle in and feel comfortable. In your home, I make sure everything is done exactly as you’ve outlined, from feeding and walks to playtime and quiet time. My goal is always the same—happy, secure pets who feel cared for just like they do when you’re there.
“Jax had a great stay! Would highly recommend! They were responsive, flexible, sent photos, and even did a meet and greet before the overnight stay. We will definitely use Dana & Eric again for overnight stays, thank you!”
About: All my life I was surrounded with all kinds of dogs. Since my first dog golden retriever, I had a pug, toy terrier and 2 huskies 🥰 I work only couple days per week for 5 hours and have a side business from home, so I’m very flexible. Dog walking is perfect for me because I have a daily routine of walking in the morning and evening I have a safe space in my apartment and live 5 minutes from balboa park. I understand that each pet has unique needs, and I’m committed to providing the best possible care for your furry family member.
“Megan watched our 4 month old shitzu overnight for 3 nights and was incredibly caring and attentive to his needs. From the beginning to the end the communication was quick and she included photos and videos of our puppy’s adventures with her 2 sweet shitzus. Megan even drove an hour 1/2 to meet us during our travels both ways for pickup and drop off! We can’t say enough about her wonderful care! We were very fortunate to find her and felt so grateful to her kind care. Our puppy had a lot of fun!”
“Valerie was absolutely wonderful! She made Kody feel right at home. She took excellent care of him, shared regular updates, and captured the cutest pictures. We would absolutely love to have Kody stay with her again!”
About: I love my own cats, dogs and reptiles of all ages in my household! I will absolutely love your animals as our own 💕💕 I have been in Montrose for 8 years. I always go home during lunch to let our dogs out. My lunch varies. Either I go home 11-12, 12-1 or 1-2. I usually have holidays off. My dogs are kennel trained. I have a fenced yard with plenty of room to run around. My cats and dogs are friendly and vaccinated. My cats are fixed, our male dogs are not. One of my cats is blind.
“McKayla was great! Ari, our 5 month old pup had a great time! We’d definitely recommend her to anyone visiting Moab. Ari got a great dog vacation and it allow us to pursue a couple epic mountain bike adventures. Win win. Thank you McKayla!”
About: I was raised with dogs in the house and always feel like something is missing without a furry friend around. I have sat for dogs of a wide variety! I am open for drop-in visits or dog walking at your house, but cannot bring your dog to mine at this time. I have a lot of free time and love to fill my day up with dog visits! I am a teacher on summer break. Having my own dog that occasionally runs away, I prioritize the comfort and safety of your pets and look forwars to adjusting to their needs!
“Laura and Sam were great! They were gracious enough to do a greet and meet with us prior to the stay to make the dogs and us more comfortable. They sent updates and photos/videos that kept us at ease while on our trip. They went above and beyond to take care of our babies. We can’t recommend them enough!”
About: I currently own a 5 year old Rottweiler, and an 8 month old Cane Corso puppy. Before them, growing up I never wanted kids just wanted a petting zoo of fur babies. Unfortunately due to not having a big enough house, my zoo is on hold. But in the meantime, I get to enjoy other puppies and watch them anytime at my convenience. I’m good with watching any dog big or small! Currently I work full time at a hospital 3 days a week. Any other time I’m free! I work 12 hours a day. I have a schedule in about 3 months in advance, so I’m okay to book to your schedule and work something out. When watching other fur babies, I like to ask owners their day to day schedule. That includes what time they wake up, what time they like to be walked at and what time they normally have the zoomies to play. Their daily schedule shouldn’t change only because their owner is gone on vacation.
