Safety, trust & environment
I will follow any instructions for the safety of your pets and home while taking care of your fur babies. Walks, potty breaks, feeding times and play times will be adhered too.
Information Coleen T. would like to know about your pet
Learning about each dog that I meet is the first and most important aspect of the experience. If there are any special needs or any behaviors I’ll need to keep an eye on let me know and I’ll adapt my care for your dog accordingly.
A typical day
I enjoy learning the games and other activities that dogs like to do. Walking around parks, in neighborhoods or just having a stroll around a yard are all things depending each dog that are fun and exciting for me. I have a few parks I’ve walked and are places I would like to explore with any dog, although I’m up for learning about new places and having new adventures.

Reliable Carer for Your Fur Babies
Pet care experience
I’m a pet lover that has owned several dogs and cats since I was young and enjoys learning about each animals personality. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and exotic animals since I was 15. My first job for 8 years was caring for animals at an educational animal business and have a degree in Zoology. My friends, family and neighbors have had me care for their pets while on vacations, during unexpected absences or at work on many occasions over the last 24 years.
Reviews

We are so grateful we found Colleen! She took amazing care of our 4-month-old puppy, Sal, and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. On her very first sitting session with us, Sal ate a bee on a walk and vomited a couple of times. Colleen handled the whole situation with incredible calm and good judgment. She recognized something wasn't right, kept us updated the entire time, and got Sal to the emergency vet, through evaluation, and back home swiftly! It was an awkward and difficult situation for everyone, but knowing Sal was with someone who stayed level-headed and made all the right calls meant everything to us. Beyond that, she was kind, communicative, and Sal loved her from the first moment of the meet and greet. We will not hesitate to book with Colleen again and can't recommend her highly enough. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Coleen always takes such great care of my kitty and pup!

Norman was very happy with his walk!



Coleen did an amazing job with the our three pups! Two are very nervous about new people, and they made fast friends. She kept us up to date while we were out of town and sent lots of pictures.
