Dog Sitters in Downieville Lawson Dumont, CO

We have worked with Teri for a little over two years now and we are so grateful for all that Teri does!! It is so nice to have someone who takes such good care of our pets to rely on. Teri sends thoughtful reports and the best pictures after her drop ins!!

Chloe did an excellent job of providing 4 mid-day visits. She was faithful in giving me a report (with pictures) each day. When my flight home got canceled, she agreed to visit on the 5th day. The web portal is easy to send emails, payments, etc. I’ll use again and I highly recommend.

I cannot say enough great things about this pet sitter! She was reliable and thorough. Every morning I woke up to a full daily report of her visit including updates on what she did each visit and how our cat was doing, with a few cute pictures as well. She was thoughtful in taking care of the house and was very responsive in the communication portal. She truly went above and beyond, and I'm so grateful to have someone to count on when traveling out of town. Highly recommend! Thanks so much, Leah.

Distinctive Pet Care and Julie have been caring for my two senior dogs with all the love and cuddles I could ask for from a sitter. Julie has done overnight stays and mid-day walks for me. One of my pets is diabetic and requires timed insulin shots. The other is a puppy mill survivor and very nervous around new people. Julie has gone above and beyond to meet my dog's medical needs. Her patience and consistent care have helped to bring my shy dog out of her nervous shell. She now will run up to the door to meet Julie knowing there is a walk and a snuggle waiting. Thank you, Distinctive Pet Care, for finding reputable pet sitters and providing them the support they need to be successful. Thank you, Julie, for being the pet sitter I needed!

We LOVE our pet sitter, Kathy! It can be so nerve wrecking to find someone you trust to come into your home and take care of your pets, and we are so thankful for her! One of our pets is prone to medical issues and has been on lots of different medications and food. Each time we have to leave them we know Kathy can handle it and follow new and specific directions. We also LOVE getting a picture of them every time she comes to visit!

I love Distinctive Pet Care! We used them when we were out of town for five nights on vacation, and they had a fantastic in home sitter stay every night and another check in mid-afternoons every day. They sent pictures and an e-mail report every day both for the mid-day and the overnights, which was a huge relief to me. One of my dogs has abandonment issues, so coming home to see her so normal and happy was AMAZING! We will definitely use them every single time we go out of town or need a pet sitter.

I’ve used Distinctive Pet Care’s sitting services for several years. The pet sitters are always attentive to the pets and to the house. I am very satisfied with the quality of care and their communication.

We have used Distinctive pet care several times over the last few years. We have used them for many different type of visits, from brief "mid day potty breaks" for random long work days, to two week long trips for mom and dad to go to Europe where they visit three times a day. It is never easy leaving our babies behind but DPC (specifically Cheryl (retired now) and Nikki) are AMAZING. They are responsible, keep us well informed and ease our minds when we have to leave them behind. I am so grateful for their service and commitment to our pets. I would whole heartedly recommend to anyone needing pet care in our area. Thanks for all you do!

Holly at Distinctive Pet Care did a wonderful job taking care of our bunny while we were on vacation. It was comforting to know he was in such good hands and the daily reports she sent after every visit were filled with information and pictures so we always knew what was going on. Holly's communication was stellar, her care for Milo was above and beyond and we will definitely use Distinctive Pet Care again.

I literally cannot say enough about Fran and Holly with distinctive pet care!!! I have a12 week old puppy and travel A LOT for work which would be very difficult if not for Fran and Holly. They do daily visits, overnight sitting and training. They are amazing with her and REALLY love her and care about her development and happiness.....it feels like family (only better because Fran is such a fabulous trainer) I would pay them twice as much as they charge for everything they have done for me and my sweet puppy!!!! Thank you Fran and Holly ❤️

Amy is wonderful with our two dogs and treats them like one of her own. We know our dogs are well taken care of and get plenty of exercise when they are with Amy. I would highly recommend Amy’s dog boarding!

Great place to board your dog. Amy is wonderful with them.

Can't say enough about Amy. She is awesome.

Nancy is great and attentive. Our dog has a lot of fun and comes home tired.

Kristen is truly the best! This is the second time we had our dog board with her and both times have been a great experience. She has such a great set up and every time our dog has stayed with her she has come back happy and in really high spirits. In the past I have had negative experiences with boarding dogs so I am relieved and very happy that there is a great place for Rosie to stay in town. Thank you Kristen!

Kristen loves animals more than anyone I’ve ever met. She’s the dog whisperer. Her lodgers get so comfortable it seems like they don’t want to go home sometimes. You can’t find a better person to look after your little buddies.

Kristen obviously puts the well-being of animals above all. Even in the event where I wasn't able to board my pups with her due to scheduling conflicts, she helped me find other care for my animals, and I think this shows that she goes above and beyond when it comes to customer service and making sure animals will have the care they will need. Her facility is awesome, and when my animals get to stay there in the future I know they will be comfortable and get the attention that they need. Thanks Kristen!!!

Kristen is so wonderful! Our pup LOVES going to puppy camp and on walks/hikes with her. Never any worries when he’s in her care. Couldn’t recommend her more!!!

Kristen and Rox from Elevation Pet Care took great care of our kitties on short notice when we had to travel for a family emergency. They gave our cats great care during our absence including lots of pets and kept us fed and made sure our litter boxes were clean. They are the best!

Kristen has gone above and beyond in caring for my pooch Chula. Chula knows the sound of her truck at the house and jumps right in. Super duper highly recommend

We have been working with Natalia since the middle of 2020. We were grateful to find someone in the area that uses R+ techniques. We have two reactive dogs and one with super high separation anxiety. We do weekly home visits / dog walking. Baby steps our needed with our two furry kids and we take weekly walks with all of us. Natalia has been very patient and compassionate with our furry kids and they greet her with tails wagging every single time. The female Meadow has SAG and we have finally gotten to regular walks as a family and she is totally comfortable and we could not be more proud! We also use Dog Aunt for overnight pet sitting and enjoy taking mini vacations knowing our furry kids are in trusted and good hands. We get frequent updates on our two dogs and cat and enjoy the pictures of them while we are away. We even used Dog Aunt during our family photo shoot, which was the best help ever. The Dog Aunt responds quickly to requests and or any changes that may occur. I totally recommend the Dog Aunt Pet Care for all of your furry kids needs.

Dog Aunt is like that cool aunt that makes everything fun when she comes to visit for my dogs. Natalia is simply the best. She is so attentive to my pups needs and truly cares that they're getting what they need. She takes our furbabes on little adventures and she is willing to be flexible and is so accommodating. She even drove an hour out of her way to pick my pups up after they made an appearance down the aisle at our wedding. I feel so comforted knowing my dogs are not only being well taken care of but that they are having fun and getting sooo much love and attention.

Natalia is the BEST dog sitter ever! She's been watching our 1.5 year old pup since he was like 3 or 4 months old and has always provided amazing care for him. He gets SO excited to see her, we always joke that he likes her better than us, haha. We trust her completely with him, which is saying a lot, because we are pretty "protective" dog owners. She is responsible, prompt, fun and a great communicator! She sends tons of pics and videos while she watches him which we really appreciate. We have yet to find a different sitter/boarder who even comes close to Natalia.

I have used Dog Aunt Pet Care for over 18 months to take care of my 13 year old kitty. Natalia is always there when she says she will be, sending pictures and videos of Stella. I know Stella is always well taken mon care of and always happy to see Natalia. I use Natalia on a weekly basis and would not trust anyone else to take care of Stella.

Natalia takes such great care of our puppy, Oakley!! Whenever we schedule a daycare or walk, I know Oakley is going to have a really fun adventure. She takes him to parks and different areas for him to explore. Sometimes she has another dog along for him to play with. Natalia also sends pics and video clips throughout the day to keep us posted on their adventures. She is very affectionate with Oakley. Oakley just loves Natalia and so do we!! I highly recommend Natalia for dog walks and daycare! She is AWESOME!!!

We used Dog Aunt Pet Care for a long weekend in February. We knew our Boston Terrier, Vinnie was in good hands from the posts and video bursts we received. Dog Aunt knew Vinnie loved to play fetch and she indulged him several times a day. She fed Vinnie per our instruction, cooked chicken sprinkled into his dry food. Dog Aunt picked up and dropped off Vinnie on both ends of our trip which gave us one less thing to worry about. Dog Aunt loved our boy and we couldn't ask for anyone better to care for him.

Natalia is wonderful!! She has a clear love and passion for the animals she takes care of and is just a really kind person! Natalia watches our kitty when we are out. Our cat is normally super shy of new people, but on the first meet and greet, our kitty warmed up to her right away! Natalia also sends pictures and videos for each day we are out, and you can tell our cat adores her. Before, we would have neighbors watch the cat. While they did a fine job, i cant say i felt 100% secure when we were out. She is our go-to person for when we need someone to check know our cat. I couldn't reccomend anyone else! Edit 8/13/23: my husband and I just got back from an over two week trip to Australia. For our trip, this would be the longest amount of time our cat has been away from us. For this trip, I was extremely nervous since we would have limited communication due to time zone differences and international connectivity overall. All those factors alone made the thought of leaving so anxiety inducing for me. But while we were gone, Natalia was so flexible with making sure that we would get us daily updates on our sweet girl. It was so reassuring to see our cat not at all anxious. Our cat was happily playing and greeting Natalia everyday. We asked Natalia specifically if she can stay longer than she normally does when she watches her and she was so accommodating with that. Natalia also had to administer our cats weekly ear medicine, which she didn't have to do previously. We came home and there were no problems with her ears. I don't think I would have been able to enjoy myself in Australia if I didn't have such an attentive, caring, and accommodating cat sitter like Natalia. No one else, not even close friends watch my cat anymore anymore because I know my sweet girl is in safe hands. Thank you so much Natalia for watching our cat, you will be our first choice forever!

We have been using Natalia for almost a year to check on and walk our dogs. She has always been attentive, and professional during all of her visits, and truly cares for the pets in her care! She is amazing about sending updates throughout her time with our dogs, and also keeps us informed if she noticed anything was out of character or off. I have recommended Natalia to a number of our friends and neighbors!

Dog Aunt stayed in our home with our three small dogs for a week last fall. Natalia came to our home well before our trip to meet the dogs and insure that we felt comfortable with her and that she felt comfortable with them. (Two of our dogs are older and the youngest dog has some fear aggression issues, so it’s not the easiest pack of hounds.) While we were gone, she sent us regular text and photo updates of how everyone was doing, which was wonderful. The dogs were calm and happy when we arrived home, and our home was in perfect condition. Natalia takes her job very seriously and was a consummate professional in all of her dealings with us.

Natalia of Dog Aunt Pet Care is truly one of the best dog sitters I have ever come across! As the proud "dog mom" of a rescued boxer with severe separation anxiety, I have always worried about how pet sitters will get along with Bronx and he with them. With Natalia, I never worry and Bronx absolutely LOVES her!! She is extremely reliable and responsible and goes out of her way to ensure that she knows each dog's individual preferences and personality and that they are comfortable. It is obvious that she loves her clients - both human and canine - and we love her too!

Tango happily goes into Bergen Bark Inn whether it’s for daycare or boarding and he’s always in a cheerful mood when we pick him up. That says it all about his time there! The staff is personable and efficient. Most important, they are sweet and affectionate with the dogs, while maintaining a safe and controlled environment!

We take our dog here to get groomed & he comes home looking beautiful! We usually get an appointment that's convenient for us & within a few weeks. They do such a great job! And with the holiday he got a cute little tie too. This is the day after his groom. I highly recommend them.

As with so many others, we are very particular about where we board Max. Bergen Bark boarded Max for this past eeek. The experience was outstanding in every way. We will not hesitate to board Max at Bergen Bark on future trips to Evergreen. The updates, Christmas treat dinner, photo with Santa Paws , etc. illustrates the quality of the boarding experience.

We absolutely love Bergen Bark Inn. Our dog looks forward to his daycare and play day each week and we love that it helps to get his energy out. They have cameras in the play areas that you can log into to check on your pup when you have a day scheduled and they always have employees in the play groups to keep the dogs aligned. The facility is always clean and the front desk staff are helpful and kind. They also know our dog very well and we can tell he’s very comfortable with them. We’ve also boarded our dog and booked the private room for the camera to check on him. He’s always happy when we pick him up from daycare or boarding which tells us he’s happy there!

My puppy , Rip, has visited twice so far and he seems to like it. He comes home tired! :). I also think the people there are very nice and accommodating and will do whatever you need. I’m so glad I found them!

We love Bergen Bark Inn! They are so accommodating of our two dogs and make the entire boarding process very easy.

Took my large breed dog for an evaluation for a boarding stay and we will not ever be returning. I had to walk back to help get my dog out of their yard because he was so frightened by the woman yelling at him to leave. I do not think they realized the windows were open to the lobby, or they would have hopefully spoken more kindly to my dog. We had to walk back thru the facility to help get my dog to leave because he was so terrified. The actual boarding facility or standard rooms were absolutely filthy. The smell of urine and poop almost knocked us over walking back. I am mortified at these conditions and the level of stress my dog was in after we left. I THINK THIS PLACE SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN. If you plan on boarding your dog here or putting them in day care, ask to see the place and listen to how they speak to your pet first.

Bear always loves coming to Bergen Bark. They have been excellent at accommodating us during construction work on my house.

Wonderful boarding and day care! Spacious facility with a loving and friendly staff. My babies come home exhausted and happy! They have special events (like an Easter Bunny visit/photo, a "kissing booth" photo set up and treats for Valentines Day, birthday celebration treats, etc), and truly treat our pets like family!

My friends leave their dog here when they travel and I often do the dropoff and pickup. He’s always happy to be left there and has a great time. Nice staff.

It gives us such piece of mind knowing that Cindy is caring for our kitties while we are away! The visit updates are detailed and reassuring that everyone is doing well. Each visit includes the essentials (food, water, litter, meds, etc) and she takes time to give them a little love. And the photos are great :)

We absolutely love the services provided by all of you. It makes our holidays less stressful when we have to travel, knowing our animals are cared for. I enjoy the pictures and updates from visits. Even in the snow storms, Wendy & Elizabeth have been there and made sure everyone was safe, fed and watered. I’m beyond appreciative for their time and commitment to caring for our home & animals. This is a service we were always looking for and so thankful to have them available when we are in need.

We used wood hoof meow for the first time recently to take care of our 2 rescue dogs. We were going to be gone for a week and we had never left them before. We had 3 wonderful ladies take turns coming to the house twice a day to feed and walk our dogs. They would text us every trip for updates and send pics of our fur babies. They were taken such good care of while we were away. We are so thankful to have found a nearby, dependable and trustworthy pet sitter. Their app is great! They really are the best! Jason and Liz

Couldn't say enough good things about Woof Hoof Mew! We have had Kathryn look after our kitties a few times now and love the communication and updates while we are gone and our babies love her. They genuinely take the upmost care with looking after the fur babies! We recently lost one of the cats they looked after and we recieved a kind word and beautiful flowers in sympathy. Thank you Woof Hoof Mew for your outstanding care and service ❤️

I can’t recommend Cindy enough! I felt so comfortable leaving my kitty in her care during our recent trip. She provided the sweetest updates that completely put me at ease during my travels. Highly recommend Woof Hoof Mew!

We love Woof Hoof Mew! We've had them watch our fur baby anytime we've had to go out of town for over a year now and I can't say enough about how wonderful everyone is. We've worked with a handful of the pet sitters at Woof Hoof Mew and every single one of them has been considerate and paid close attention to detail and we've felt completely at-ease knowing our dog, who has some special challenges, is well taken care of. We would recommend their services to anyone!

I feel so fortunate to have the sitters at Woof Hoof Mew as a resource when I travel. I have used the sitters at Woof Hoof Mew for the past two years and I can always travel knowing that my cats are well taken care of and I will get updates while I am gone. Plus everyone who works at Woof Hoof Mew is just so kind and caring. Great business!!!

This company looks after my operational farm while I’m away. I have almost 30 goats, 6 livestock guardian dogs, 40 chickens, and a few “indoor” pets. The people who works for this company are the most reliable, knowledgeable, and caring people I have ever have. I have gone out of country knowing that I have nothing to worry about. I always use them or have them “on call.”

Michele is wonderful with my older cat! My experience with this company has been exceptional.

I’ve never been more impressed with a petsitter or pet sitting organization. Woof Hoof Meow is extremely professional! Their website and their practitioners are simply the best. This is my third time using their services and Wendy has exceeded all my expectations! The day after our 16” of snow in Evergreen, even knowing I had neighbors as back-up, she overcame unplowed roads and walked up our unplowed 150’ long driveway to take care of our kitties. Her commitment and communication throughout blew me away! Can’t recommend this group highly enough!

We really enjoy Sage Valley - we have a chihuahua that can be hard to find a dog sitter for. The team at sage valley knows how to work with him, he gets his own run so we don’t have to worry about him being with other dogs, and he always seems comfortable at drop off.

We love Sage Valley! It gives us comfort to know that our pet is well cared for. I have had only good experiences over the last 6 years.no matter who is at the front desk we are warmly welcomed and it is obvious that they are happy to have Sydney back. Each time we arrive Sydney happily runs to the door without hesitation. I would highly recommend this spot. This is a space that allows you to enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe and in very good hands.

We've boarded our 2 dogs at Sage Valley a number of times, and are so glad to have them nearby. They are always accommodating, and take very good care of our fur babies. It's a relief to know that they're well cared for while we're away.

Our pup has a great experience when at Sage Valley, or ‘camp’ as we refer to it! The staff listens about our boy and takes good care of him while we are away! Kudos to the entire Sage Valley team!

I highly recommend Sage Valley! I have 2 Bullys who have never been boarded before Sage, and this is the 1st and only place I will take my fur babies to. The staff is so welcoming and make sure to give extra attention to your pups! Scrappy and Aiko’s favorite person there is definitely Alex ❤️ they light up every time they see Alex at the front! They are pooped every time I pick them up, and that’s how you know they had a great stay!

I was nervous about boarding my super anxious dog for the first time ever, and after a trial weekend I will definitely be boarding him here when I am out of town over Christmas! One of my coworkers said they've been bringing their pets here for 20 years so I wanted to give them a try. I love that play time is 1:1 with a person and not with other dogs so I don't have to worry about how he will react to other dogs or how other dogs will react to him. I think it will take him a few more times to not be scared at first when I'm leaving him (after 4 years he's finally getting used to our vet, haha) but I feel a lot better knowing he's being cared for very well.

This was our first time boarding our bernedoodle and we’re very pleased. We have a very anxious girl & were concerned it would be hard to find a boarder to give her the anxiety meds she needs daily, as well as eye drops and food mixture. She came back so happy. The staff even gave her a thanksgiving meal & said she did great! We will be back!!

These guys always take terrific care of my dog, have been going for years. I can confidently say Louie likes it as he runs to the door tail wagging when we get there!

21 years of sending dogs to Sage Valley…we have only had good experiences and our dogs are always willing and even excited to return. Sage Valley has handled all kinds of situations for us…puppies, old dogs, multiple dogs, fearful dogs. It’s who we trust with our pack

We love Sage Valley! Our dog loves to visit every time. They are so sweet to him, they always remember him, and are very accommodating of schedules. Highly recommend!

I’ve been bringing my dog to Best Friend’s since 2021, and they do an excellent job caring for him while I travel. The staff is friendly, and everyone seems to be enjoying their work. Plus, the cameras and videos are a great way to check in on my pup!

We recently boarded our dog, Juno, at Best Frients Pet Hotel over the holidays, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating to Juno’s needs, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. When we picked her up, they took the time to give us a detailed overview of her behavior and even provided a report card showing how she did during her stay. It’s clear that this place truly cares about the well-being of every dog. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring and professional pet boarding service!

Great friendly staff. I've had my dog there many times and he's always excited when he goes in, and in a great mood when he comes out. They give a good detailed synopsis of how he was during his stay. They even send pictures of him playing. I highly recommend Best Friends Pet Hotel. It's my go to choice whenever I have to travel.

This is our second time bringing one of our Australian Shepherds here for grooming. The groomer is highly skilled and friendly adept at handling any challenges. Unfortunately, my Aussie was attacked two months ago, and the veterinarian had to shave his side, which is still regrowing. The groomer skillfully trimmed his hair and seamlessly blended the missing fur. I am genuinely grateful for their expertise. I wholeheartedly recommend this establishment for all your pet grooming requirements.

My dogs are always so excited to go here for their doggy hotel stay and happy when they come back. I love that I can have them enjoy eggs for breakfast or other treats and get pictures while they are there. Love seeing them while I am away.

They always take great care of my Max. He's not neutered so had to be by himself. But they follow his meal plan and give him lots of love and play when we're away! Thanks ladies for all you do!

The team at Best Friends is amazing! We know that our sweet dog is in good hands and is well cared for when we board her with Best Friends. She gets 1:1 play time, and we get photos ‘from her’ while she is there. Puts a smile on our face, and shows how much this team cares.

Or pups have always been well taken care of. When we travel we can rest assured that our dogs will be fine.

This place is absolutely amazing me and my family regularly go out of town and so we need a place for our beloved dog to stay while we're out of town this place has never disappointed us always comes home Happy Clean and properly fed we are more likely to find aliens on Mars then we are to be disappointed by Best Friends Pet Village

We have been bringing our dogs to best friends for 5 years, and my husband’s family have brought their dogs for over a decade. The staff is wonderful and our dogs love everyone there. They treat our dogs like family and we always feel comfortable boarding our dogs here.

I’ve been counting on Personal Pet care for the past 7 years. Gretchen is extremely knowledgeable and caring towards my 3 doggos that all have different needs. I always get them back better behaved and happy. She is a true dog lover and my dogs love her, including my high anxiety lab. I know I can trust her and count on her! My husband and I travel a lot and it’s so nice to know she’s got them. She communicates well and I appreciate her updates on my pups. Thank you Gretchen, you are simply the best!

Gretchen does a fantastic job with our Sophie. She loves to stay with her and her little frenchie buddies. Gretchen was also helpful when we were training Sophie and gave us lots of good advice. We are really happy to have Gretchen and personal pet care.

My dog Marco has been visiting with Gretchen for 7 years since he was a tiny puppy. I can’t say enough about the fantastic care we’ve received over the years and the strong bond he has with her. She is incredibly knowledgeable about dogs and her experience shows in her professionalism and calm demeanor. We call it going to “Camp Gretchen” and Marco loves every minute of it. She separates dogs by size to keep them all perfectly comfortable. She shows them so much love and attention. The dogs have a blast together. Marco is worn out when he comes back home. I never feel guilty when I have to leave him with her. She’s truly the best!

We have been using Gretchen for the last five years for our two French Bulldogs. I always watch their reaction when we take them somewhere and they get so excited to see her. When they go in the door with her they never look back. That says a lot in my opinion. I never worry about the "boys" when they are with her. I know they are being loved and cared for in an exceptional manner! She truly loves animals and devotes her life to their well-being and care. We are so lucky we found her. Now I can travel without worrying about how the "boys" are doing!

There are no words to describe Gretchen other than, "the best". She has been taking care of our Ivy girl for about 10 years and helped us rescue our little dog about a year ago. WE trust Gretchen in every possible way with our beasts.

We discovered personal pet care over three years ago and cannot speak highly enough of the service and care. Our dog absolutely loves it. Also, you cannot beat the pricing for what you’re getting. There is ample experience at the highest level and never have to worry about your pet when you’re away!

I went on a weekend trip to California and was able to relax and have fun Gretchen watched not one but two of my French Bulldogs couldn’t have asked for a better experience!!! My babies were in great hands.

I am so thankful to have found Gretchen with Personal Pet Care. She went above and beyond looking after my sweet old pup and took such great care of her. Every question I had was answered with the utmost professionalism. Every worry I initially had prior to finding Gretchen was immediately put to rest. My dog has found a home away from home and honestly, she may like Gretchen more than me. Her knowledge and skill is unsurpassed. The only reason I wouldn't want to recommend her is that I want to make sure to save her availability for my schedule. But in all seriousness, she's been extremely accommodating and helpful for coordinating dates and times and I couldn't be more appreciative.

Gretchen is amazing and my dog loves going to Personal Pet Care! She actually gets excited when my suitcases come out because she knows where she is headed. She's been staying here regularly for two years now as I travel frequently. They are very attentive to each dog's needs and behavior and really do care.

Personal care for your dog that allows you to be stress free when leaving them. Your dog will receive peronalized top notch care and they actually look forward to going there!
