Fetch! Pet Care, America’s largest franchised provider of professional dog walking and in-home pet sitting services, is bringing its experienced and animal-loving team to Loveland, Longmont, Boulder and nearby communities.
Longmont resident Patrick Kuhnell today announced the launch of Fetch! Pet Care Loveland to Boulder. With a focus on exceptional and reliable care, Fetch! offers a wide range of services for furry family members, including puppy check-ins, private dog walking, pet sitting, “almost” overnight care and pet transportation.
“As lifelong pet owners, my wife and I understand why people consider their pets to be part of the family,” said Kuhnell. “Personally, we expect the best care possible for our cats, and as such, we provide clients with that same level of service that ensures all animals are safe, happy and well cared for.”

Kuhnell is deeply committed to improving his local community. Each week, he walks shelter dogs for the Longmont Humane Society, and every month he volunteers with Colorado Pet Pantry where he distributes pet food and supplies, helping families to increase their ability to care for and keep their pets. Additionally, he volunteers with Longmont’s Sustainable Opportunities, Lifestyles and Leadership (SOLL) Project, empowering residents to live a more sustainable lifestyle, and he participates in community clean-ups through Sustainable Resilient Longmont.
Kuhnell said, “Since launching Fetch! Pet Care, I’ve enjoyed meeting many local residents and I look forward to getting more involved with local businesses and nonprofits that are dedicated to the health and wellbeing of our neighbors.”
Kuhnell hand-picks and thoroughly trains each member of his team. All pet care providers, including his wife Sandy, are bonded, insured, background-checked and have specialized skills in caring for animals. Kuhnell offers a free consultation to establish a relationship between his team members and prospective clients and to ensure a good fit for all.
Clients are encouraged to utilize the company’s mobile app for scheduling and communicating with team members. The app includes features such as GPS tracking to enable clients to locate their animal during a walk and a journal for the sitter’s notes, photos and more.
Find the Fetch! Pet Care Loveland to Boulder team at upcoming community events, including a meet-and-greet at PC's Pantry, 2828 30th Street in Boulder on Saturday, Sept. 25, 2021. Kuhnell and his walkers and sitters will be at the store from 10a.m. to 2p.m.
