Personalized care for your dog or cat - Placerville

“Dean is a great guy and took excellent care of Rocket. He always sent updates with photos and videos and it always looked like Rocket was having a great time (out for walks, playing with Dean and his other dogs and having that happy look on his face). We would recommend Dean to anyone looking for their dog to be taken care of in Telluride.”

“Sierra was awesome! We were in town for the day and couldn’t bring our dog out to play. Sierra met us somewhere convenient and our pup Cashew was off for the day with her pack. Sierra sent us lots of updates and photos throughout the day. We felt SO good about our decision to leave Cashew with Sierra. He had a blast and was tired and happy when he returned home! Thank you, Sierra!”

“I couldn’t be happier with Anna’s care. Leading up to the date she was very helpful and responsive. Shortly after leaving my pup with her, she sent me photos and videos which made me at ease knowing that my dog was happy and acclimating well. All throughout she took extra steps to make me feel comfortable while I was away from my pup. I can assure you that your dog will be well taken care of with Anna!”

Amanda R.

“Aliana did a great job. She met us in town for drop off and pick up which was super convenient. Kachina had lots of time to run around, Aliana sent us pictures and checked in throughout the weekend. Our girl was very happy and healthy when she returned. Highly recommend Aliana !”

About: I'm a lifelong dog owner who has cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments from puppyhood to senior golden years. Looking forward to providing what your dog needs, whether that's cozy-calm companionship, playtime, and/or exploring on walks and hikes. Growing up I raised livestock, and I’m comfortable with a wide range of pet care needs, including administering medications, managing feeding routines, and paying close attention to behavior, safety, and comfort. Because I work on a school-year calendar, I have additional availability during the summer for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to provide dependable care, attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the week. Whether I’m caring for a dog in my home or in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, consistency, and comfort by following each dog’s usual routine and paying close attention to their behavior, energy level, and individual quirks.

“Lee was everything and more you could ask for taking care of your pups! They seemed to be having such a good time, I was wondering if they’d want to stay with him. Both of our boys came home happy, healthy and even a little tired from their exciting stay. Cannot recommend Lee enough!”

Cody W.

“Ava was great with Dixie and did an awesome job of staying in communication with me as she was watching her! She stepped up when I needed daycare last second which was super clutch. Would definitely book again :)”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I grew up with a black lab at home and now my family has another black lab. I have done extensive training with her and I’m now able to take her into stores and other public indoor spaces that are dog friendly. I have a passion for training dogs. I care a lot about animal health and will respect whatever rules you hold for your dog or cat. I have experience with leash aggressive dogs, and dogs that are not good with other dogs. I have a calm and caring demeanor that dogs pick up on immediately. I cat sit for my best friends cat quite often. I’m currently working part time and have plenty of time to watch over pups and cats. I’m in school for herbalism and have night class 2x a week and day class every other Saturday. . I listen to the rules of the animals’ owner so they can keep up with their normal routine. They will be leashed if they are used to it, off leash if that’s what they’re used to. Animals are always the safest when you follow the same rules as their parents.

“We were visiting Telluride and wanted to do a last minute hike. Haruko was outstanding in checking on our 14yr old dog at our hotel. Highly recommend if she’s available!”

“Dean was fantastic with our 11 month old Bernedoodle, Patti Mayonnaise! She’s quite the adventurous dog, but Dean gave her all the walks and love she needed. He was incredibly kind, helpful, and kept us connected with tons of photos and videos. He even saved the day by providing a harness and poop bags when we realized we had left ours behind. We highly appreciate his care and will definitely be reaching out to Dean every time we visit Telluride!”

Katie H.

“Lee was fantastic with our dogs. He greeted us in his driveway when we arrived, and made us instantly feel comfortable. I could tell he truly loves dogs and has a special connection with them. He kept us updated with texts and pictures with how much fun they were having. He took them on a walk and let them play in the river, which they love. They seemed so content and happy when I picked them up. I would highly recommend Lee, and would definitely leave my dogs with him again!”

Larissa B.

“Thank you Haruko for taking care of Skye and Ruger. I will use your services next time I need them and will recommend you to others. Thank you.”

“Martha was awesome! She showed up right on time, super easy to communicate with, and my dog absolutely loved her walk — came back happy, tired, and wagging her tail nonstop! She really went the extra mile to help out when I wasn’t feeling well. I can’t thank her enough for being so kind, thoughtful, and dependable. HIGHLY recommend!”

Cindy C.

“It’s really nice to have this service in a small mountain town. We were able to go do the via Ferrata in Ouray because Alaina could walk our dog that day. She was a good communicator, professional, on time and sent updates so I knew Gunny was taken care of. Thank you so much Alaina. We will definitely reach out the next time we are in Telluride.”
