Your pet will be my new BFF.
Pet care experience
Hey! I’m Colby. I’m originally from Texas; I grew up in the Houston area and graduated from Texas State University. I’ve been living in New York City for 7 years and currently live in Bushwick. I live with one friend in a very quiet and private building. The building has a private backyard for your pet to run around! I live ten minutes from Maria Hernandez park, which also has a dog park. I absolutely love animals (dogs especially), and grew up with a chocolate lab named Hershey. I have experience with pet sitting for other people also as I grew up pet sitting for my neighbors, and friends. I live in a very cozy apartment in Bushwick, and I’m excited to potentially watch your pet while you’re away.
Reviews
Super fast response & was patient with my anxious dog :-)
I was out of town for a wedding, and I never once worried about Cleo while she was in Colby’s care. He was kind, attentive, and let me ramble on countless instructions. Cleo clearly had a good time with Colby and came back just as happy and content as I dropped her off. I can guarantee she’s already missing their central AC!
Colby was great!! Super responsive and sent pics :) Usually my dog is super stressed after I drop him off with sitters, just because of the change and when I got him he was so chill. Obviously had the proper socialization and a good time!!!
Zora clearly really enjoys staying with Colby! She stays eagerly and hesitates to leave when we pick her up. Highly recommended!

I have one roommate who also enjoys dogs, so your dog will have a lot of attention while staying with me. My friends also love meeting the dogs I’m watching, so they’ll be getting a lot of love!

Information Colby A. would like to know about your pet
Your dog needs to be house trained, my roommate and I keep our place pretty clean. I totally understand that mistakes happen, but not constantly. I’m also unable to watch dogs who have separation anxiety issues.
A typical day
I usually take the dogs I’m watching to Maria Hernandez, and take them on my morning walks with me. If you are comfortable with them playing with other dogs, I can take them to the dog park also.

I work from home, so I have plenty of time to take your dog on walks! I try to leave my apartment as much as possible during the day.
