Dog Sitters in Silverthorne, CO

Words can’t begin to describe how thankful we are to have found The Dog Chalet. We’ve utilized both doggie daycare and boarding for our “enthusiastic” (as we like to say) 1.5 year old Blue Heeler, Franklin. We started bringing Franklin for doggie daycare on a weekly basis earlier this year and he has absolutely loved it. My mother-in-law actually cried the last time we were in our hometown after having watched Franklin for a week because she said he was a completely different dog (in the best way) with how well he listens, his temperament, and obedience and I sincerely believe this is due to his weekly visits to TDC. He always comes home healthy, happy, and tired — we couldn’t be more grateful. Like most young heelers, Franklin isn’t always the easiest but TDC has always shown him patience and love, and we’ve never doubted that he’s in the best of hands when he’s there. As our time in Summit County is winding down, we are so sad to be missing our weekly visits to the dog chalet but are so thankful to have had the opportunity to utilize their services— it has truly been one of the best and most impactful choice’s we’ve ever made for Franklin. Thanks for everything, Kelly and the entire Dog Chalet team! WE LOVE YOU!!! *cue the ugly crying and the song, Graduation (Friends Forever) by Vitamin C*

We had a great experience at the dog chalet. The people (we met 3, including the owner) are super friendly, and loved on our dog from the moment we walked in. We were able to submit all of the forms and records ahead of time, which was nice, and made for a simple check in process. This was such a great option for us while we visited the ski resorts in the area-highly recommend. Do try to book ahead of time just in case…they were super accommodating, but they don’t always have spaces available last minute.

My dog is dead because I entrusted these people with her care. I am a competitive snowboarder and I had to go out of town for a contest. I brought my dog to the Dog Chalet because I wanted the best care possible for her. I wanted her to be safe when I was gone. My dog was attacked by another dog under their "care". Apparently nobody was aware that my dog was attacked until several days had passed and her bite was severely infected. By then it was too late. The infection was in her bloodstream and she died. My dog's attack went un noticed for several days. That is negligence and now she is gone because of this place and their lack of care. The owner also refused to help at all with the vet bills I racked up trying to save her life. My dog was an active service animal of two years, adopted from Costa Rica, and my very best friend. I don't want anyone else to ever have to go through this. Don't entrust the Dog Chalet with your pets care.

The Dog Chalet is our go to dog boarder in the area. We have used both their boarding and day care services. Our dogs come back happy and always enjoy their stay here. The Dog Chalet is friendly and easy to work with and I highly recommend them for your boarding needs! They will take great care of your fur babies!

Had to take our dog here last minute for a weekend stay. They were very accommodating. Kenzi had a great time and loved playing with the other dogs. We we were able to take her out during the day to go on hikes. Staff was nice and gave us some tips on hikes to check out. Would have her stay again. Thank you Kelly!

My little girl Penny Lane comes to day care a couple times a week and she absolutely loves it. She is overjoyed to see all her friends, and comes home tired. All of the employees who work here are friendly and fantastic. Penny has also stayed overnight for boarding and everything went great. Cannot recommend this place enough!

This place is wonderful!! Our dog is our baby and the staff here gives him so much special love and attention. He always comes back happy and tired from a full day of playing with friends! Would recommend to everyone! This is a great way for the dogs to socialize while being cared for with top quality and attention!

We took our dog here all winter in 2022. The staff was great, and took really great care of our dog Cole. He was really excited to come here every day, pulling on the leash as we got closer to the door. The staff is so kind and caring and gave us excellent customer service. The dog chalet is the best dog daycare in Summit county!

Amazing comfort and communication while we were in a pinch. Will always come back here and not even think twice about it

OK place in a pinch for daycare but overnight boarding in kennels with no attendant. Not a quality or even a real grooming salon located above it anymore. It was sold in Jan 2024 to a chick that had zero grooming experience.

Sami has been fantastic with my dog. Amos is shy and skittish and he’s been walking with Sami and her doggy friends and he has really started to come out of his shell. Sami and her pup Murphy have stayed with Amos at my house - Amos had a great time and Sami took care of both Amos and my house. We love Sami - I highly recommend her services!!

Pawsitive Adventures has been bringing my senior dog, Storm, on daily canine adventures for several years. He gets excited when he sees Sami drive into the driveway and always arrives home tired and happy. Sami is a master at dog photos that she takes on the daily adventures, so I always get to see what Storm is doing. Pawsitive Adventures is also my go-to for house and pet sitting - Sami and her canine sidekick Murphy are professional, caring and lovely with Storm and take fantastic care of my house. She even leaves us amazing baked goods when we return from vacations! I would highly recommend Pawsitive adventures.

Not only does Sami provide the best customer service, she is easily the most reliable and adaptable worker over ever had the chance of working with. So much so that after I came back from my trip, my dog wanted to leave home with her! 😂 She has genuine passion and love for what she does and that’s what makes her so much of a step above the others in her field. You can pawsitvely count on her for anything and be overly satisfied! Don’t settle for less for you fur-baby!

Sami is amazing!!! She treated my cat like she was her own and responded to her needs. I loved getting pictures from the daily visits and could tell that Belle really enjoyed spending time with Sami. Highly recommend!!!

Sami and Pawsitive Adventures are awesome! I can't say enough good things about the business. She is extremely reliable, and very quick to respond to any of my texts. I have a 3yr old BC/Red Heeler, as well as an 8mo old Blue Heeler/Lab. The BC is an anxious girl, but Sami knows exactly how to handle her, and I appreciate that so much. She sends pictures from every hike, and my girls always have huge smiles on their faces. I am eternally grateful to Sami for having this business, and doing such an amazing job with it. She is truly an angel among us! Jaime Mender

Sami takes care of my two dogs and two cats as if they are her own! She’s great about sending updates, too. I always feel at peace knowing she’s with my babies when I’m out of town.

Sami is the best our Jerry loved her. We have moved out of the area but I strongly recommend her.

Sami is terrific! I always hate leaving my boys when I go on vacation but I know that they are happy when Sami and Murph come to stay - they have their own little vacation and adventures.

I highly recommend Sami! My dog always has a great time and is very well taken care of!

Sami is a very professional and dependable person. My dog is absolutely in love with her, I don't leave him with many people but Sami is one of the few I trust to care for him in his older age. I recommend her to any friends needing services like hers.

Contacted boarding facilities around Summit County with NO luck and honestly poor customer service. Zach with Riley's retreat was not only kind and understanding but quick to respond via email. From start to finish my dog's care was priority one and given his health conditions and adverse feeling towards other dogs at times... this was the best thing we could have found. Zach took him on a run, to the river, an outdoor patio, a bike ride, and let him curl up in his bed all in a SINGLE day/overnight stay. More than reasonably priced. Updates with photos were provided that I've shared below. Just completely amazed and couldn't recommend anyone more for dog boarding needs in Summit County! With great pleasure, Andrea & Breck!

Dog days of Summitt is top shelf all the way. Angie is an incredible communicator, she genuinely cares about your dog, provides a wonderful experience for both the owner and the dog, and we learned to trust her with our beloved pooch implicitly. We cannot recommend her enough. Our golden retriever adored his time with Angie.

Angie came through for our family's unusual request for a dog walker during my dad's burial service. She was kind, sensitive, and understanding. She took them to the closest possible position outside the fence. My dad loved dogs and taught us that they are family too.

Angie was our "go-to" dog walker all winter long, and she was amazing! She was super communicative, reliable, and also so sweet with our puppy. She even helped with reinforcing the training we were doing. Angie is the best!

Dog Days of Summit is the absolute best!! My dog, Hank, gets so excited when Angie comes over. He loves going on pupventures and is always stimulated - there’s a lot of variety so he’s never bored with the activity. As he’s started to slow down in his older age, Angie has adjusted his adventures to be the perfect amount of activity. She also takes amazing care of him when dog sitting. I’m pretty sure Hank doesn’t even miss us when we’re gone because he has so much fun. I highly recommend!

Dog's Next Best Friend was a wonderful solution for our CO winter vacation. Our 6 month old puppy got to go on 1-2 hour hikes and socialize with other dogs while we got our ski days in. We highly recommend this great dog care team! Thank you Liz & Taylor!

Liz was so great with our puppy, Tito. She was quick to answer any questions we had and provided us with the best customer service. I highly recommend Liz to take care of your dog in Breckenridge. Thank you again, Liz.

Liz was kind, reliable, and very flexible as we were looking for someone to watch our dog while we were in town part of the week and were skiing. She sent pictures and did a great job handling Riley and her anxiety of being away. Riley loved the off leash hikes! Definitely recommend for your fur baby.

I highly recommend Liz and her crew for taking care of our dogs while we skied. They were reliable, flexible and very helpful with our two dogs. We will absolutely trust Liz with the care of our dogs when we return to Breckenridge next year.

We had a wonderful experience with Liz. Our senior dog sometimes needed extra care and time for walks, and Liz was always very patient and accommodating. Would highly recommend their caring service.

Best dog walkers in Summit County. Liz and her crew are reliable, flexible, and my dog loves them!! Highly recommended.

We called the day before we would be in town to see if someone could walk our dogs while we went to the ice castles. Liz was so kind! She set us up with Edi. Our two crazy goldendoodles enjoyed an hour long walk while we took our kids to play. The weather was not idea and Edi still kept the moving and playing. We really appreciate the great service!

These walkers have gone above and beyond during our month stay in Silverthorne. Liz has the patience of a saint working with our schedule. Her walkers send pictures and truly care about our pups. A++!

Chris has been walking our dog, Maverick, for a few weeks now and he the best! He is extremely reliable and just so great with Maverick. Maverick is timid around strangers, but warmed up to Chris quickly and loves going on his walks with him. Thank you Chris!

Highly recommend. The owner, she took great care of my dog Einstein while I was skiing at Breckenridge. Will be using again if/when back in town for sure!

I have used The Dog House for both daycare and boarding for my 1 year old Bernedoodle. Check in and check out is easy. Thaddeus has such a nice calm demeanor and provides great customer service. The communication was great and he went the extra mile with our pup as she can be a little shy in new situations. We paid for a bath after a 3 night stay and Frankie came home happy and clean.

Though my dog, Chief, is currently waitlisted I am super impressed with The Dog House. We're trying to get in in July and they consider their regulars top priority. I completely understand. I'm a company owner as well and local biz and recurring biz is of utmost importance to take care of the work family. Thank you, Dog House, and I appreciate your professionalism and frequent communication throughout my wait-list process!

We were visiting Breckenridge for 5 weeks. We took our 3 year old chocolate lab Lacie 4 different days so she wouldn’t be home alone all day while we were skiing. Staff was super friendly. Extremely loving and genuinely seemed to love our Lacie. Each time we picked her up we would hear who she played with and what she did. She got lots of play time and came home exhausted each time. Will be using them again next year and highly recommend. Thanks for everything!

My fiancé and I are regulars at The Dog House. Our dog absolutely loves it there. She's very anxious with new people and she's only ever been excited to be there since the first day we brought her. It's very comforting knowing she's with people who care about her, will snuggle and play with her, and take great care of her. The staff there are super helpful and knowledgeable. Can't recommend The Dog House enough. :)

We are dog people - we grew up with dogs, have had a dog almost every day of our more than 33 years together, and we absolutely LOVE the Breckenridge Dog House! We’ve been taking our little husky to the Dog House regularly ever since we moved full-time to Summit County over four years ago, when she was a puppy, and she still gets SO excited when we tell her she is going to “visit her friends”. She starts whining and barking in the car when we turn onto Continental Ct. because she knows where she is headed and can’t wait to get there! Thaddeus and Megan and their team have always been SO good to her and we feel 100% comfortable with the care and the attention that she receives. It was a true blessing for us to find this place and know that the furriest member of our family is always happy, loved and so well cared for there. If we didn’t have the Dog House, the frequent times we have to travel without our dog would be so stressful as we would worry about her, but with her at the Dog House we know she is in the best home away from home we could possibly ask for! We highly recommend!

Really nice people and dog lovers! I’m one of those dog moms who freaks out when I have to be away from them, but they did great at the Dog House while we skiied. The communication from everyone was so great and we appreciated that they went above and beyond to make sure our pups were comfortable and having fun. We will be back!

We LOVE the dog house and our pup does too! Megan and Thad take great care of our guy. They have a wonderful facility and our dog can’t wait to get out of the truck and play with all of his friends. He has been to other boarding facilities and the dog house is the only place we will take him. Friendly staff, and great service!

I reached out to explore the option to have our dog stay at The Dog House for daycare. I expressed I wanted to see the facility and understand where my dog would be hanging out all day. The man representing The Dog House was adamant that they do not do tours of the facility. When I asked if a FaceTime tour was possible so we could at least see and understand where our dog would be he refused. He was very defensive and I find it very suspicious that a facility that is meant to take care of living beings would refuse access to their facility physically or virtually. Since our dog Tito is our family we would never leave him somewhere without understanding the facility.

I was visiting Breckenridge and needed a place to board my dog. Looked these guys up on the web and couldn't have been happier. They are adamant about vaccinations. They keep the dogs in a playgroup, but my dog is more introverted. So I used the suite option which is more expensive but meant that Cleo wasn't bothered by other dogs. A couple of weeks before we arrived there was a health scare at the Dog House, and they notified everyone, closed down for a couple of weeks, made sure everything was safe. I appreciated the diligence and the communication. When I dropped Cleo off, the attendant was prepared for her and spent a few minutes building trust before taking her in They asked pertinent questions. I was very confident Cleo would be treated well and she was.

Not only unsafe, but rude. The idea that there is not even a video tour available so that we can understand where we would be leaving our beloved family member for the day is ridiculous. I’ve never used a dog daycare service that doesn’t require an owner accompanied 30-60 minute trial session and provide a full tour. We fully understand that you don’t offer any sort of tour. We are telling you that it’s ridiculous not to. And rude to boot!

Finally Summit County has a reliable groom shop again! Summit Groom Shop is a different shop than the one previously in the same location. Jen is a new owner. I had my dogs now twice groomed by Jen and they are looking fantastic. What is even more important, they went back after the first time with joy. Your dogs will tell you when they are treated well! Thank you for being an entrepreneur, Jen! Thanks you for working long hours every day of the week to close the gap we had in this part of summit county for such a long time!

Our dog Ernie has been groomed twice here. Once by Tracy, and most recently by Jen. Truly great grooming with personalized & professional service. They receive my highest recommendation.

Jen was sweet, and careful to ask what style haircut we like for our Goldendoodle. She’s an organized professional with appointment confirmation and communication about when she’s close to done. The space is clean and safe. Everything was perfect!

We were traveling by car from Denver to Vegas with all our animals and our cat had diarrhea all over herself and the car (nightmare!). We called this place and they got us in for an emergency appointment right away. Only took and hour and our cat came out poop free and smelling nice! The ladies working there were very nice and accommodating. Definitely recommend this place!

When you’re a one person show, clients must be prepared to be flexible. I understand some dogs take longer than expected, some dogs show up not having seen a brush in months, and some owners ask for miracles. I know my Standard Poodle is a challenge and Becky gives him the time he needs. He hates his feet done. The end result is amazing. He always gets compliments at the dog parks. Today I stayed and watched and got a few photos. Thank you Becky.

Becky’s been grooming my two sheepadoodles for three years, and she does a great job. It’s hard to find good groomers in Summit, and I feel so lucky to have found her! She’s busy, so we book our appointments well in advance, and we’ve always been happy. My dogs are always happy to get there, too. Becky is a great person with a big heart for rescues, also. She’s a hard-working, honest person that I trust with my best buddies.

Dropped him off for the first with Becky and it was awesome! I get weary leaving my dog with people, especially groomers because there’s a lot of bad press out there. But She was really nice, asked good questions about him and tried to make him feel comfortable. When I picked him up, he looked so good!! Trimmed in all the right places, a cute Bandana, he smells amazing and I think this is the softest he’s ever been! I can’t stop snuggling him. Thanks so much, Becky! We’ll definitely be back!

What a find! Nice space and set up, and the groomers are super talented and SO FRIENDLY! We are not customers for life!

Becky is truly one of the best - if not the best groomer we have had the pleasure to work with. We cannot recommend enough. We will use her forever! We and our dog adore her.

Becky is an amazing groomer. She’s patient will the pups and always has the best advice. We’ve been going to her for probably 10 years and I can’t imagine going anywhere else.
