Purpose-Driven Paws in the Gunnison Valley!
Welcome to Dog Walking with Heart; Dogs Tough Enough to Wear Pink, a professional boutique dog walking service built on fresh air, exercise, and a deep commitment to our community.
Whether you are working a long shift, heading up the mountain, navigating your own cancer journey with a furry friend needing their daily outing or just need an extra hand, I provide structured, energetic, small-group walks that give your dog the exercise they crave—and give back to a cause that matters.
The Mission: Walking for a Cure
When you spot a pack of happy dogs sporting pink bandanas led by a walker in a pink Carhartt hat, Pink shoes/boot laces & and Pink cape that’s us!
Cancer impacts almost everyone, and I believe it takes a commUNITY to support local healing. That is why 5% of all profits are donated directly to Gunnison Tough to support our neighbors navigating their own cancer journeys. Every mile we walk helps fund vital services right here in the valley, from travel assistance to oncology support.
The Walks: Private walks, Big Adventures & a lotta love!
To ensure absolute safety, personalized attention, and a premium experience, all walks are privates with group options for dogs that already are friends, capped at a maximum of three dogs per group.

Meet Your “Heart” Walker
Hi, I’m Amy! I was raised on a family farm in Minnesota, which instilled a lifelong love and respect for animals from day one.
Since then, my life has been deeply intertwined with animal care and the outdoors. From pitching in as a ranch hand to daily feeding and stewardship at animal rescue farm sanctuaries, I know how to handle animals of all temperaments with patience and confidence. When I’m not working on my art or writing, I’m outside— exploring wild places enjoying movement through hiking, yoga, dance & 2 wheels! I bring grounded, active energy to every dog I walk, ensuring your 4 legged loves return to you happy, tired, and well cared for.

Care that fits your busy life — and gives your four-legged loves what they need.
I currently have space for private 30-minute walks, 60-minute Wild Heart Adventures, and small group walks for up to 3 dogs who already know and enjoy one another. I also offer occasional in-home overnight care, along with ranch, horse + donkey sitting and feeding support for busy ranchers or anyone heading out of town.
For regular dog walking, I’m in Crested Butte/CB South on Mondays + Wednesdays and Gunnison on Tuesdays + Thursdays, making it easier to create consistent routines for local pups.
I also use a pet-care scheduling + tracking app where you can easily manage bookings and receive photos, videos, and updates along the way — so you know your pup is getting movement, attention, and plenty of love while you’re away.
Whether your dog needs a quick midday reset, a bigger mountain adventure, or some extra care when life gets busy, I’m here to help.
Reach out and let’s find the right fit for your world — so your four-legged love gets the movement, snuggles, attention, and heart they deserve. 🐾💗
