A local edge

Local know-how pays off in Colorado Springs

Colorado Springs sits at over 6,000 feet with intense high-altitude sun, dry air, and big day-to-night temperature swings. Sitters carry water on every walk in summer and shift to midday outings in winter when morning lows and icy sidewalks make early walks risky for paws.

When demand peaks

Summer tourism around Garden of the Gods and Pikes Peak plus military relocations tied to the area's bases drive a steady boarding and drop-in season, with a second spike over the winter holidays.
