Safety, trust & environment

Making sure your animals are safe and secure will always be a top priority. As a pet owner I understand that the safety of our animals is of great importance to us and a MUST when someone is caring for our pets.

Information Colby D. would like to know about your pet

I am up for watching and working with any dog breed! However, there are some things that would be helpful to know before taking care of your dog/animal... - temperament towards strangers - temperament towards other dogs - temperament towards small animals (cats, squirrels, etc.) - dietary restrictions/allergies ...and... - anything which may cause anxiety or aggression in your dog(s). All of these things will help me to get a better understanding of your dog’s personality, and allow me to adjust care accordingly!

A typical day

I’m willing to take your animal to do any fun activities that they may enjoy doing! Walks around the neighborhood, trips to the dog park, a round of frisbee or ball! Whatever best exerts your pets energy :)

Experienced pet owner and caretaker

Pet care experience

Long time animal lover and pet owner! I love spending time with my pets, and I’d love to spend time with yours too! Ive worked at a holistic pet store for almost four years now, so my days are spent thinking all about dogs and cats! In addition to the expertise I have on pet care and health, I also have plenty of experience caring for other peoples animals! I’m comfortable working with any animal of any size, energy level, or age! In addition to walks and check-ins I can also provide trips to the park or anywhere else your pet may enjoy going! With me you can expect your animals to not only receive great care but also lots and lots of love and attention!

10/10 Colby is the best! He's extremely reliable, trustworthy, and is the sweetest to our pup, Heidi! She absolutely LOVES when Colby comes over for walks and is sad when he leaves, which is actually the greatest praise ever :D And we have dozens more walks planned ahead already. We highly recommend him for your pup care and walks!
