Denver Landscape Renovations for Pets

Your Pup Deserves A Space to Enjoy
Homeowners and their four legged family deserve an outdoor space that offers room to play and unwind without concern of the safety of your pet or landscape. 

We take great pride in designing stylish and durable landscaping where your four-legged friend can frolic without destroying plants and perennials.

Arterra Landscape Design/Build's owner and principal, John Majeski, is a long time dog lover and owner. He understands it can be challenging to create a space that is both beautiful and suited to the needs of your canine companion.

​Your four-legged friend probably needs to enjoy the freedom of taking a few rowdy laps around the yard, chasing a ball, and playing freely without causing worry that he or she could destroy delicate landscape elements or accidentally escape your yard for a neighborhood adventure.

Dog Friendly Landscaping
​Conceptualizing and designing a landscape that truly considers your dog’s behavior and needs is something we delight in. In fact, we’ve brought joy to a number of dogs and their guardians throughout the Denver metro with our unique designs. 

​In general, dog friendly landscape designs tend to include turf grass, quality fencing, ground covering, shade bearing trees and pergola structures, and protection built around your sensitive plants or garden beds.

 Thoughtful Design Solutions
Before offering design solutions, John talks to you about your dog’s behavior and habits. A custom dog friendly landscape plan is thoughtfully informed by your pup’s habits, personality, size, and temperament by our licensed landscape architect. ​
Here are a few examples of what we mean: 
  • High energy dogs that run up and down your fence line need space for their daily romp without the risk of devastating a flower bed. Raised planters and discreet fencing or mesh wire are often good deterrents. 
  • If you live with a chronic digger, river rock, pea gravel, and turf solutions may prevent a backyard from taking on the look of a prairie dog sanctuary. You might also consider leaving a small, hidden patch of bare ground in your space for your digger’s delight. 
  • Dog breeds stereotyped for aggressive behavior may need tall, unbreachable fencing to ensure peace of mind for the neighborhood. Elegant materials can be used to ensure that boundary fences flatter your home and work within your Homeowners Association guidelines and bi-laws. 
  • Small dogs can be clever escape artists, so unbreachable fences and gates are a solid investment for your peace of mind and pup’s safety. One attractive fencing option for smaller dogs could be traditional rail fencing with tasteful and secure modern wire mesh.

​HOA Compliant
​We take care to work with any design restrictions that your homeowners association may enforce, while also taking great pride in helping create an outdoor oasis that is meant for your whole family to enjoy.
