Does my dog need to be highly active?

Tell me what your dog enjoys and can comfortably do. We'll discuss whether an adventure is suitable or whether a shorter walk or quieter visit would be a better fit.

Will my dog be off leash?

We need to discuss handling and the planned setting before confirming the outing. Please don't assume an off-leash activity is included; your dog's needs and the location's rules matter.

Do adventures include dog training?

No. Adventures are for activity, attention and exploring. They aren't a dog training program. Please share any handling concerns before booking so we can discuss whether the outing is suitable.

How do I arrange pickup?

Include your neighborhood and mention pickup in your message. We'll discuss the arrangement with your requested outing; pickup adds $15 to the one-hour adventure price.

Dog Adventures in Parker CO

A Change of Scenery For The Dog Who Loves To Go

Some dogs come alive when there's something new to explore. A run, a splash or time at the dog park can make an ordinary day feel a little more exciting.

I'm Betsy Mercer, and my dog adventures in Parker and northern Douglas County are built around your companion's interests, energy and comfort. Tell me what makes your pup happy, and we'll discuss an outing that fits.

Outdoor Adventures For Your Canine Companion

01.

A run for the dog who loves movement

If your companion enjoys running, we'll discuss an outing that matches their usual activity and abilities. As an athlete, I enjoy keeping up with active dogs while paying attention to their individual needs.

02.

KevinA splash for a water-loving pup

Swimming can be part of an adventure when it's appropriate for the dog, the location and the conditions. Let me know whether your pet enjoys water and what you're comfortable with before we make a plan.

03.

A dog park outing with time to explore

Some dogs enjoy sniffing, playtime and a change of surroundings. We'll talk about your dog's comfort around other dogs and people to decide whether a dog park or another suitable dog-friendly outing makes sense.

Your Dog's Comfort Sets The Pace

An adventure doesn't need to be the same for every pet. Your dog may love energetic play, prefer a more measured outing or have limits we need to work around.

Before we plan, tell me about:

Their age, breed and usual energy level.

Their comfort on a leash and around unfamiliar dogs or people.

Activities they enjoy, including any experience with water.

Handling needs, mobility considerations and anything you want avoided.

Weather and your dog's abilities help guide the final choice. A particular activity, route or swim isn't promised for every outing.

Outdoor Fun Without Another Job on Your List

When work or a busy stretch makes it hard to fit in something extra, I can help your dog enjoy a change of pace. Optional pickup gives you another way to make the outing work with your day.

And if the adventure gets your pup dirty, a bath afterward is included. A little mud can be part of the fun; it doesn't need to become your next task.

Adventures and Action Photography Make a lovely Pair

The movement that makes an outing fun can also make memorable dog photos. If you'd love professional images of your companion running, exploring or showing off their personality, ask about arranging a separate pet photography session.

Professional photography is a separately planned service. It isn't automatically included in a $30 adventure.

Pick the Service That Fits Your Day

01. For a routine walk or run

My 30- and 60-minute dog walking and running visits are a good place to start when regular movement is the main goal.

02. For time away overnight

Suitable walks, runs, swims and adventures are included in dog boarding at my Parker home, depending on your dog's needs and the weather.

Questions Before the Outing

Tell Me What Your Dog Would Love To Do
