History
Owner Nicky Johnson created Uptown Dog in March of 2013 in order to create a dog walking and pet sitting company made up of experienced walkers who are passionate about dogs, cats, and all other pets and dedicated to providing loving, reliable, and trustworthy care. After working for another dog walking business and realizing many such businesses hire walkers and sitters with little experience she became motivated to improve upon the services available in Denver. She is originally from Connecticut and has lived in Denver since 2010. Her dog, Lolo, is a seven-year-old German Shepherd-Corgi mix who was rescued from Jackson Hole, WY.
