“Mark and his family took care of our dog for three days and nights while we were on a rafting trip. They welcomed her into the family--she got to play fetch with the kids, romp with the two Airedales who live here, and hang out in this dog-friendly home. Mark was super responsive and sent great photos while we were gone, too. Thank you!”
“I know we left a review last time but Ashley was so great to Piper and us this visit I just had to leave another one. We got stuck in Denver due to weather and was so helpful and communicative - taking Piper another night and organizing her food etc. Just fantastic service - and Piper loves it there - thank you!”
“Thanks Tarah for Ranger’s visit. Sounds like he had a wonderful adventure filled visit. He was definitely tired but happy when we picked him up. We would love to have you watch him again!”
“Kenzie is absolutely great with our dog! She takes very good care of him while we are away. Would definitely recommend ger to anyone looking for a sitter to watch their dog!”
“Allena is a life saver. My dog last minute had fleas and she kindly was able to pivot how my dog was cared for. She took great care of my fur baby and will definitely use her for care again in the future !”
“Jenny is an excellent caretaker! She and her sweet puppy are a perfect fit. Her attention to detail and care for all animals really comes through. We’ll definitely be seeing them again!”
“Virginia was great! Bruno loved his time there. Her place has lots of space and a great yard for the dogs to play and enjoying lounging outside. Will definitely use her again. Thanks Ginia”
“Savannah was wonderful with Alice during her four-night stay! She communicated consistently, sent updates, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Most importantly, Alice absolutely loved her and came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with Savannah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter for their dog.”
“Darek was fantastic with my pup! She was a happy girl when I picked her up. On top of that, my trip ended up getting extended two extra days and Darek was so helpful and communicative during the whole process, it took a huge weight off of my shoulders as a pet parent! Definitely recommend him as a sitter and will be using him again!!”
About: I’ve grown up and cared for with dogs my entire life. I’ve also fostered dogs in the past for multiple months at a time. I’m extremely responsive, careful, and comfortable with dogs of all size. Looking forward to helping with your pet needs! I’m currently WFH 5 days a week. My schedule is pretty flexible in terms of when I’m on and offline. My day typically follows a normal 9-5 working day. Depending on the pet, I definitely prioritize walks and getting time outside to get energy out. I’m okay with letting them roam around the apartment and will not have to be crated or blocked off from any parts. Of course, I follow the instructions given from the care giver if I will be at their home.
“Jack and Kenya were wonderful with our senior dogs. Their communication was great throughout our dogs stay, with pictures and updates. Our dogs came home happy and tired. We would highly recommend Jack and Kenya for dog boarding.”
“Becca was great! Very responsive in communications, and very understanding of our unique Emmitt. It was a great match, and Emmitt and Kodak are now BFFs. I won't hesitate to use Becca in the future.”
“Couldn't have had a better experience. William sent messages and photos to make sure I knew The Dude was not just in good hands, but relaxed and having fun. Knowing Dude was well taken care of made my trip so much sweeter. Great communication. Great care. Great experience.”
“Heather did such an amazing job with our dog, Bruno! It was such a relief to know that he was having so much fun and being so well cared for while we were gone. We were afraid that he wouldn't want to come back home! She also sent the most amazing pics of him for us to enjoy! Thank you so much! Bruno can't wait to stay again!”
“Courtney was super communicative and very friendly. She sent lots of photos and pictures of my pup while staying with her. I could tell Courtney really loved dogs and they mean the world to her. Would definitely use her services again when in the Durango area.”
“Jackson was fantastic with Barley. Every day he sent me photos of their adventures together hiking through the mountains. I would strongly recommend him to anyone needing a caretaker and friend for their dog.”
“I was thoroughly impressed with Sandra! She was very kind and responsive and took great care of my Oakley. She sent me pictures and updates throughout the day. Would definitely use again.”
About: I'm an animal lover! We have two dogs (Border Collie mixes) and one cat. I know how important it is to feel like your fur friends are in good hands and I will make sure I do that for you. I have experience giving meds to both cats and dogs, if needed. We have two kids, 5 & 6 years old, who are very good and gentle with pets. They have a lot of experience with animals. All I ask is that your pet is also kid-friendly! They will be closely monitore together. You may have noticed in my photos that we also have chickens! They do have a large, separate yard, so they will be in their own area when we have visiting pets. They are well secured, so if you worry your dog might get excited and chase them, their fence will keep them safe. During the school year, I drop my kids off in the morning, might have short errands to run, home most of the day, then pick the kids up in the afternoon. Our dogs eat in the morning and the evening with many potty breaks in between. As for summer, we spend most of our time outside in the yard. My husband is a wildland firefighter, so I am home with the kids most of the time. As a photographer, my schedule is very flexible. I usually only do photo sessions during the evening and they're only a half hour to an hour long. When I have weddings, it's likely I won't be available because they are long days away from home and I wouldn't want to leave your pet alone for that long, my availability will be updated accordingly. Even with photo sessions and school, I am home a lot! I understand from experience how it can feel to leave your pets somewhere unknown. I will do my very best to keep to the schedule your pets are usually on. Feeding, potty breaks, medication, etc. I will make sure they feel at home, get love and attention, play time, walks, and anything else they would normally enjoy. Feel free to bring them a bed so they have somewhere to sleep. Our dogs sleep on our bed, but we will make sure your pet doesn't feel lonely at bedtime, too!

About: Hello fellow dog lovers! With over 20 years of experience owning and caring for dogs, I understand the deep bond between humans and their furry companions.

About: I have experience taking care of my own cats and others since I was young. I am good with cats of all kinds and I find it incredibly important to respect their space and go at their pace. I've had great success with getting shy or aggressive cats to open up and become comfortable with me. I have never taken care of a hairless cat but I would love to meet one and learn the unique aspects of their care as well.

“We were nervous to find someone to watch our dog to go hiking, as he has never been left anywhere before. However I was so relieved to find Kenzie! She was flexible with working with us, communicative, sent photo updates the whole time we were gone, and provided Archie with a comfortable and friendly place to stay! If we were ever in the area again and in need of someone to help with Archie, Kenzie would be the first person we would ask!”
“Very convenient and close to Mesa Verde National Park to allow our family to enjoy the day. Rogue had a nice place to play and relax for the day. Would recommend to anyone!”
“We feel so fortunate to have access to a trusted person like Suede to watch our dog when we are on vacation and there are activities where dogs are not allowed like the National Parks.”
“Ashley is wonderful! She takes care of my puppies like they are her own. I always receive pictures and updates and she has happily given my little guy his eye meds. Plus my puppies LOVE her and are always exhausted when they come home having had the best day with her!”
“Virginia is amazing, her property is wonderful and set up great for the dogs. Archer and Paisley got the chance to play in the rainy snow but she also let them warm up and nap in the heated garage. They both enjoyed their stay and we enjoyed not being worried about them while we were gone. Virginia is GREAT at communicating and we will be using her services again on future trips to Durango! 13/10 all the gold stars!!”
“Allena took great care of my poodles while they stayed at her place for 8 hours. They came home happy and relaxed. She even made a treat to-go bag with Mila and Prince’s picture on it—highly recommend!”

“Tucker was so happy to be greeted by Samantha as we entered her courtyard area! She made him feel right at home, took him for walks! Sent pictures of him ! She took great care of him! Train ran late and she Samantha was so accommodating! Thanks for taking such good care of him!”
“Jenny was very accommodating about drop off and pick up time. She communicated promptly in setting up the day care. She sent pictures of Lefty having fun and playing throughout the day. He obviously had a great time with Jenny, her dog Luna, and guest dog Reuben. I highly recommend Jenny and would bring Lefty back to her any time I'm in the area. Thanks Jenny!”
“Kerrin was great and I highly recommend her. She was very flexible and responsive to Archie's needs and sent me pictures. Archie can be barky at a new place at first and Kerrin was very understanding. I could tell Archie had a great time as he just slept when we got home. Thanks, Kerrin”
“Kaitlynn and her family were the best people to leave our boy with for the day while we spent time in Mesa Verde. He was loved and cared for with plenty of space to sniff and play as well. Highly recommend!”
“Becca was great! Will definitely be using her next time we are in town. Our dog was able to play with hers and relax outside throughout the day. He did not want to leave his new friend when we picked him up. Would 100% recommend!”
About: I have been working with animals since I was a child! I grew up on a farm with horses and our trusty yellow Labradors, learning from an early age the true meaning of taking care of others. I love providing dogs the happiest experience - I find such joy when playing, running, skiing, or hiking with dogs and seeing the BIG smile on their faces! Any pups that stay with me, my husband, and our goofy dog, Miles, will have a fantastic time, as well as guaranteed adventure (as appropriate!). When your pup stays with us, he/she will never be left alone and will be treated as one of our own. Having fur-babies of our own, I understand the importance of knowing that your pup is well taken care of according to his/her needs. We hope to see you soon! I work full-time from home with a flexible schedule. Considering this, your pup will never be left alone and enjoy our company (and snuggles) 24/7. I have a flexible schedule and will update my calendar weekly as needed regarding my availability. Our home is located in Rafter J on three acres, ~10 minutes from downtown Durango. We have one dog named Miles, a seven-year-old Weimaraner who has a goober personality and LOVES to play with other dogs.
“We were visiting Durango in our RV with our two dogs and wanted to take a day trip. We booked doggie day care with Jackson. He was very accommodating and changed our day when the area was impacted by a wild fire. Jackson was professional and friendly. He took great care of our boys for the day, sending pictures and text updates throughout the day. He took them walking, and to work where he has almost two acres of fenced grass. We couldn’t be happier with Jackson and would use him again without a doubt.”

“Jayden was amazing with our boy! She was really great to follow our dog’s routine and kept him very happy and healthy. Jayden was always punctual, attentive, and overall very reliable! She also sent multiple daily updates with pictures and videos, and was super sweet with any q’s we had. Would def recommend her and book her again, our boy had the best time. Thank you so much!”

About: Care for animals has been a passion of mine throughout my life. My experience ranges from years working in an animal hospital to simply dog sitting. I cannot wait to meet your pets! During the week we can be available at anytime and we look forward to pet care being an important part of our daily function in life! I care for animals by listening to the owners expectations and then adhering to subsequent schedules and routines to meet all of the pets needs and to make the pet as happy and comfortable as possible.
About: I have a senior pup back home, we rescued her years ago and now she’s living her best life all spoiled with seasonal bananas. I have another 4 year german shepherd who’s high functioning and interactive, I love taking him to the dog park and out for pup-cups. I have lots of free time between classes to check on/walk your puppies! If your pups need more supervision I’d be happy to stay at the house between classes to keep your pets company. Your pet would always be in my sight when we’re outside, and I’d follow your instructions for them inside. I clean up after myself and I pack my own snacks.
