compassionate dog care

Pet care experience

I am a lover of all things big and fluffy ! I am a huge dog person ! Dogs are better than most people in my opinion ;) I had a golden retriever for 14 years growing up and he was my absolute best friend ! Losing him was one of the most difficult things I have ever experienced :( I'm a full time nanny So I'm naturally very compassionate and caring and your dog will hear a whole lot of baby voices coming from my end :) I'm fit and energetic and love long walks and jogs so I'm more than happy to bring pups along on that journey ! I would love to have a dog of my own but I have roommates that aren't big on pets so this is the next best thing for me .. I will treat your dogs as if they were my own and they will be provided with lots of snuggles , love, and treats ! Did someone say treats ?!

The first time we booked Coleen we had a great experience. The second time, not so much. We had left extremely early, about 7 am, to go out of town. We have a Nest so we can see when anything happens in our cul-de-sac. It was late afternoon when I texted her asking if she had checked on the dogs - she said she had checked on the dogs and cuddled with them all morning and had to leave to babysit. I said we had a Nest and saw she had never come to house - she said “I was super in and out your camera didn’t catch me” - which isn’t true because our camera catches everything. Anyways, fast forward 15 hours and I had to call a friend in between this time to let our dogs out because she never came. She ended up coming around 10 pm and texting me to leave for “lunch plans” around 1 Pm the next day. Unfortunately I wouldn’t book her again. If you have plans and can’t watch our dogs, be honest - don’t just take our money. If you have other things to do, be honest and decline. It’s taken me a few weeks to write this review but other dog owners should be aware.

First off, booking someone from Rover and not being able to meet them first will always make you nervous. We booked Colleen because we were going to Houston for the holidays and weren’t going to be in one place- glad we did. She came over soon after we left and the dogs immediately took to her. One of our dogs is very unsure about new people and doesn’t really show affection to people she doesn’t know. That was not the case with Colleen. Every picture we received our pup was snuggled right up to her. She took them on walks, played with them, and I think she rarely left our house during the house sit. We came home to a house spotless, wouldn’t even know someone was over. She changed out our scentsy and washed her sheets (which she didn’t have to). She was extremely caring and respectful to our new house and our babies. I would HIGHLY recommend her and will be booking her again- no doubt.

Coleen was amazing! From showing up exactly when she said she would to sending us update texts a few times a day, Coleen was exactly what we hoped for and more. She was our house/dog sitter when we traveled, and although we were initially nervous leaving our dog and house to a “stranger” we were immediately comforted when she arrived with a Big smile and eager to learn our expectations and eager to meet our dog. She stayed at our apartment over the weekend and our dog had a great time. She even did the dishes and laundry of the bed she was staying in! Overall, we could not have been more impressed and will be using Coleen anytime we are out of town.

Coleen has been a much needed resource for me to use in the past. When I would need to leave for a business trip or even a personal trip I would often times ask Coleen to watch and/or walk my dog Mongo for me. I have never questioned her integrity, her honesty, or her passion. She has always made me feel like she cared about my dog as much as I did. Coleen was always professional in my interactions with her, she was punctual which is important for someone like me who time is valuable to. Furthermore, she was flexible, including the time I called her after running late and she made another trip to my house to walk him for me. She is literally one of the best dog-walkers/sitters that I've ever had the pleasure to work with and I highly recommend her! 5/5 stars.
