Pet Sitting & Overnight Boarding 

For the Adventurous

Overnight k9 Camp Structure

Our adventure school regulars get overnight care priority, but we welcome visiting and seasonal pups as well for their own vacation of a lifetime! My calendar will open one month in advance for any available overnight and drop-in spots not filled by our pack members. You, the human, will always be met with professionalism and the level of privacy that fits your needs. For your dogs, risk management and safety are our highest priority while they enjoy structured time and a ton of outdoor fun!

WINTER 2023-2024: Please email to get on an early bird email list to let you know when the books open each month.

Overnight Camp Basic & Freedom Package

Overnight camp always includes local pickup and drop off, and may include time in the town of Telluride as well as our stunning Uncompahgre Plateau off-grid acreage, an adventure dog paradise. All camp dogs enjoy the daily adventure school hikes with our balanced pack and the right fit of evening and weekend biking, camping, relaxing time, structured training, swimming or other options. Everything you desire to send with your dog for the health and comfort will be provided to your specifications including medications, supplements, bedding, e-collars for off-leash hiking, etc. Puppies will sleep in crates in our home as well as any dog who requests it; otherwise your dog will pack sleep in our bedroom with us.

Freedom Package

Includes all of the above with the additional benefit of your dog learning to wear and happily respond to a Pet Educator System e-collar to allow for safe and reliable hiking and dog sports. We train to the vibration as a positive recall reminder and/or as an interrupter. Stims are for true emergencies and rarely used. This requires a minimum of 14 night stay, minimum dog age of 10 months, and additional terms to be discussed prior to booking. This package includes lifetime support for the dog on the topic of their e-collar.

Unlike traditional dog boarding, your four-legged family members will have a memorable experience when staying overnight with us. Your dog will be treated like treasured family in our home in town with a rare fenced yard. We also may spend time at the "Casa Peidra campus" in the Uncompahgre, where we have nearly 40 acres of varied terrain and are currently building a trail network and agility ring. We acknowledge that all our land is original Ute territory. We have road tripped, van camped, backpacked and more with client dogs along for the fun. Dogs have a ton of fun camping and backpacking, but if they have never experienced this before, have no fear! We will show them how fun and relaxing it is, while teaching good manners including neutrality, no chasing or barking at wildlife, staying on the trail,  settling in for the night, "leave it", recall, and so much more.
