She reached out to report that one of them was coughing a lot, which we knew was not abnormal, but it was great that she was so attentive and checked up on it--it made us feel like she was really tuned into whether they were doing ok. We would absolutely trust our girls to Colleen again.”

About: I’ve got your dogs covered from 1-on-1 playtime, to obedience training and enrichment! I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have always been hands on with the dogs in my community as well! I’m the best fit for your fur baby because of my range in experience, commitment to having a healthy, happy and obedient furry friend and of course my snuggles are top notch! 😊 I’m currently working a split schedule on weekdays so I have 7 hours from morning till afternoon available to help walk, play or house sit your doggies whenever. My weekends are open and I’m often at a park in surrounding areas to catch some down time which is the perfect opportunity to run around with your fur friends! My home is securely fenced in the backyard and there are no obstacles such as a swimming pool. My front door has an alarm system and is kept shut throughout the day so dogs may not wander unsupervised. If needs be, I am able to crate your dog as I have a large sized crate with blankets and enrichment toys to keep the pups occupied 🐾
19. Sjocelin C.
“Sjocelin is fantastic! Very good with my nervous dog and responsive to my messages. I highly recommend!”
20. Joshua B.
“I can’t recommend Joshua enough! They watched my cat and dog and made sure they were happy and well-cared for. Their genuine love for animals really shines through, and I felt completely at ease knowing my furry friend was in such good hands. They have clear and effective communication and go out of their way to make sure you and your pets are happy! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for your pets, Joshua is the perfect choice!”
