Doggy Day Care West Colorado Springs

“70-lb Elsie enjoyed her stay with Janae and her friendly dog. She was offered a big bed indoors (but laid next to it, as usual) and enjoyed exploring the large backyard during her stay. Pickup and Drop off were easy, and Janae responded quickly through the app - highly recommend!”

“Anthony and Samantha were wonderful. Very responsive via text messages and lots of pics. You could tell they really love dogs and I felt my babies were well cared for. Very happy pups!”

About: I started my pet care journey fostering for an Upstate SC county humane society. I quickly found a niche helping them care for special needs animals; those with behavioral and/or health problems. I continued for years doing this until Covid and semi retiring in Colorado. This is when I decided to take formal training and received my CACTP. I then began working for two multi state dog rescues specializing in large breeds. I specifically focused on great Danes with Dunbar bite scale and rehab needs out of over 16 dogs. I was able to rehabilitate 14 although most of my formal experience is with large breeds, I do have decades of experience with medium and small breeds. I am very active with any dog in my care. Regardless of the weather, I will always find some form of exercise and behavioral training to work on daily. I am a corporate exec and an aviation consultant working on-site and remotely, here in Colorado Springs, CO. So I am home based and able to care for your pet on a flexible basis. My wife and I are empty nesters who live on the west side near Garden of Gods. I have a fenced yard, however, I frequently take animals under my care to dog parks, on walking trails, out to dog friendly errands/pubs, and/or to private/secluded “Sniffspot” areas with my own monthly subscription. We have no other pets, but have frequent deer and squirrel visitors.

“Kim was able to take my last-minute booking without a problem. She didn't flinch when I described my crazy deaf Dalmatian with her high energy level and considerable high anxiety. Spice went right to Kim when we got there like she'd known her all her life, and Kim said Spice was really good during her time with her. That's unusual for Spice to be that open to new people and new situations. We appreciated the care Spice received while with Kim. We will definitely book with Kim again in the future.”

“Sarah was wonderful to work with. Lexi tends to be a little anxious when we leave her and Sarah was patient and understanding the whole time. We highly recommend Sarah and will use her again when staying in the area.”

“Very convenient location to have our doodle minded while we toured nearby Manitou, Pikes Peak and the COG railway. Rachel and Meg tag teamed to give our Ted a mix of indoors and outdoor activities. We would use them again but we 1500 miles away.”

About: We nicknamed our home The Dachs Inn - a weenie wonderland! We’ve cared for Dachshunds for 15 years and specialize in meeting the unique needs of this breed, including dog ramps on our furniture and deck. Our home features a dog door with all-day access to a giant backyard for potty breaks, play time, sunbathing and squirrels!!! Plush dog beds are placed through the home and a giant sectional provides the perfect spot for cuddle time. Daily walks are provided, we even have a dog stroller for senior dogs or those dachshunds suffering from IVDD. I work remotely from home full time and, along with my retired husband, provide hourly drop-in care, play dates, overnight and extended boarding in our home. Additionally, I provide home visits and walking services to families located on the west side of Colorado Springs. Other locations throughout Colorado are considered on case-by-case request for extended care in your home (5 or more days). I have three dachshunds, ages 15, 10, and under 1 year. My dog-friendly home has a fenced back yard, we feed all visiting dogs separately, and can provide daily pictures of your baby’s activities. I can also provide regular weigh-ins, medications, and teeth brushing. I am very active and love going on long walks/hikes (up to three miles) upon request. While I prefer to host only smaller dogs in our home, I am open to all breeds for care at your home - including drop-ins, walks, and house sitting. I kindly ask that all dogs are current on all vaccinations, including kennel cough. For medical emergencies, we are established at Westside Animal Hospital, The Animal Clinic of Woodland Park, and the Emergency Pet Center.

“Giselle watched our dog Benny and we felt so comfortable leaving him in her care. From the start Giselle was quick to reply to our request for care and was very flexible. She worked with Benny on his training, took him on a long walk and played with him in the yard. He is a high energy dog and she wore him out!😊 If you are looking for someone responsible, attentive and kind Giselle was perfect. I will use her in the future!”

“Melinda was very easy to communicate with. She took excellent care of my little dog, who can be anxious around new people and other dogs. I would definitely ask her to watch my dog again in future!”

“Carla was fantastic with my little Peanut. My pup had the best time at day care. She sent so many updates and was super flexible with his pickup/drop off times. I’d love to have her watch him again.”

“We're so appreciative of Devon taking care of Zeus! Zeus always seems calm and relaxed after spending the day with Devon. It puts our minds at ease knowing Zeus is taken care of and has someone to hang out with while we're at work 😊”

“This was our first time using Rover. Sara was awesome and we will absolutely use her again next time we’re in the area! Incredibly quick to respond and excellent communication throughout the whole experience from meeting up beforehand and communications about the needed schedule flexibility on our end. She was on time for both meetings and her own dog is so very sweet. We’re so pleased they got along and Sara got them out and about on a beautiful day as well. Now we’re on a long drive home and our pup is actually sleeping in our car, something she never does, so we know she had a wonderful time playing with Sara’s dog. We’ll be using Sara again and passing her info along to friends that frequently visit the area as well. Thank you, Sara!”

“I can't say enough nice things about Hanui. Not only did she take excellent care of my dog, but she offered additional help when I was in a bind. She and her husband are outstanding people. I am grateful to them.”

Margaret G.

“Mariah was great. Our dogs got along really well and my pup came home happy and tired. Mariah’s communication was great throughout the day and she was flexible with pickup time.”

Matt H.

“Doriana was great with Luna! She was willing to work with Luna’s anxiety and find ways to make her feel comfortable. She was responsive and communicative. Luna is happy to spend the day with her. I would definitely recommend Doriana!”

About: All of my experience has been from personal pets and pets of family/friends. My current dog, a 4 year old Samoyed named Nimbus, trained at Under the Sun and is very accepting of other dogs. I also have a three year old toddler who is great with animals. I am a stay at home parent and so I would always be here with your pet. I like to play in the backyard with the dogs and if you are comfortable with it, I could take your dog on leashed hikes. My dog has free reign of the house and yours would as well. If I did need to run a quick errand, then your dog would be welcome to join or nap with Nimbus! I am a stay at home parent for our toddler and so I would always be around. We’re have a 4 year old Samoyed who loves other dogs and would be thrilled to have a playmate. if your dog enjoys activities, then they would be welcome to come with us on quick errands and or leashed hikes. I would, of course choose activities based on your preferences. I just want to stress that your dog would be treated like part of our family! I know that I want our dog to be comfortable and happy when I’m not with him and I would make sure that yours is as well. My main focus for care is just spending time with them and making sure they are happy! I have a four year old Samoyed who loves playing in our fenced and secure backyard and going for hikes. If your dog enjoys those activities, we would love for them to join! If your dog is older and needs a more relaxed environment then we are happy to just spend time at home with them! I do have a toddler that is not yet in daycare and so visiting dogs that are comfortable around kids would bee important from our end. We spend many days at dog parks and so our daughter is comfortable and good with other dogs and cats.

“Lorriane was great with Izzy. I recently moved to the area and needed pet care on short notice. Lorriane was quick to respond and great to work with. Izzy enjoyed the stay and Lorriane kept me updated on the days activities. Without a doubt, I would use Lorriane again for pet care and we are now comfortable we have located a caring individual to look after our pet in the future. Thank you Lorriane.”

About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoy giving them the care, attention, and companionship they deserve. I’m responsible, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I have a work from home job and a dog of my own. My two children love our dog, Dottie, and they love the idea of us taking care of other dogs. I treat every pet like a member of the family. I provide a safe, clean, comfortable environment with plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and affection. I follow each pet’s routine and care instructions closely, and I’m attentive to their individual needs, personality, and comfort level. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely comfortable and at ease while you’re apart.

“Ashlie and Shiloh are awesome! Pomni had such a great time playing all day, they sent lots of pictures and communicated with us about everything! Really appreciate knowing Pomni had a good day while I was away!😊”
