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.

Whether it’s a spirited walk through town or a trail adventure in the high country, I will make sure every dog gets the exercise, stimulation, and attention they need to stay happy and healthy.

I am currently working on earning my K9 Wilderness Emergency First Aid certification.

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

Visited Telluride for the weekend and was able to enjoy a dinner out knowing Reuben was well cared for. Ruthie even made sure to walk him right before i returned so that i didn't need to take him out.

About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life. My golden retriever and rescue are my entire world and I couldn’t imagine life without them. Adventures, coffee shops and hikes are much more enjoyable with dogs. Your pet will get to join us every morning and evening on our daily walks and may even get to go for a stroll for a pupuccino. This is my third summer in Silverton, Colorado. I watch dogs for weddings, long hikes, events & more. :) I work remotely, so I am available all day. My dogs and I typically walk every morning and evening weather pending. We love to be outdoors anytime it’s nice. I have two very friendly dogs that would love to entertain your dog. If your dogs are dog friendly, my dogs can always stay home with my fiancé. I work remotely so I am available to stay at your home full time with no work interruptions.
