“Amazing! Lots of pictures. Took our dog on multiple walks which is absolutely incredible since he is not the greatest on the leash. She has a great calm presence which made our dog feel at total ease.”
About: I have taken care of all different types of dogs, including a wide variety of ages. I will be able to cater towards any specific needs I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to take care of the pups. I also run everyday, and can run with dogs if needed. I can easily provide a crate, but I plan to stay in a client’s home. I have done this before for dogs in my neighborhood for over 5 years
About: I have a huge yard that has 3 professionally monitored and recorded surveillance cameras. I will take your dog into town to socialize and exercise.

I dj at the radio once a week and I own a business but your dog will never be alone for more than 20 min. I have dog gates and cables. I will send you pictures and videos throughout the time that your dog is under my care. Your dog will get plenty of petting, walking and attention.

About: I’ve had 3 family dogs, and loved them all to pieces. I’m transitioning to adulthood and don’t feel as though it’s the right time for me to become a dog mom just yet, but I’d love to help care for your furry friends and get my four-legged fix❤️ I work for the school district here in Fort Collins, so I am typically able to be present with the pups from 3:30pm to 7:30am on weekdays, but all day on weekends! If you’d be interested in booking me for an after school walk, check in, or an overnight sitter, please let me know! I love being outdoors and hope to enjoy Colorado outside as much as possible. If we’re inside, the pups and I will be very respectful of the space we’re in.
“I booked Lindsay to be available to us if needed while in Telluride. While we didn't end up needing her to watch our doggie, her communication was great! It was a big deal knowing we had the ability to have someone watch him if we needed it. Thanks again Lindsay!”
About: Having had several dogs in my life and a dog training License I feel your animals would be at home with me as much as you I do not have a dog and I just enjoy dogs, attitude, company and motivation. They would allow me to care and earn some extra cash. They will be treated like a member of the family in your home. The parameters that you set up will be respected Either way, the animal will feel safe and at peace

Caleb helped ease their fears. He took Diesel on some great outings (to the lake, pond)! He sent us so many pictures during diesels 2 day stay. He was great at keeping us updated!”
