Do you love dogs, the outdoors, and the idea of building something meaningful of your own?

No prior pet care experience required—we’ll guide you every step of the way.
Why Join Hike Doggie?
Colorado ranks #1 in the nation for the most committed dog owners.
Colorado Springs
- 64.7% of households own at least one pet
- Dog owners spend an average of over $1,700 annually per pet on care and services
- Military families lean heavily into pet ownership
Pueblo
- Dog Ownership Rate: Approximately 44% of Pueblo households own at least one dog
- In Pueblo's semi-rural and expansive suburban landscape, dogs often play dual roles. They are beloved family companions
Fort Collins
- Dog owners average over $1,800 annually per dog, prioritizing high-end veterinary care, premium nutrition, and specialized pet insurance.
- Dogs are a fixture of public life. Major local landmarks like New Belgium and Odell Brewing feature massive, highly populated dog-friendly patios. The city boasts a disproportionately high number of dog groomers and pet stores per capita to keep these highly visible companions looking their best.
Weld County
- Weld County outperforms both state and national averages when it comes to dog ownership, largely dictated by its geography and housing styles.
- Dog Ownership Rate: An estimated 50% to 54% of households own at least one dog.
- Family-centric and a prime catalyst for dog ownership: The Boom of Young Families: Between 2010 and 2020, Weld was the fastest-growing county in Colorado for children under 18. A massive 25% of the population is under 18 (compared to just 20.5% statewide)
