Fairfax WoofHouse

Do you need someone to watch your best friend while you are away? Do you have an upcoming event and no one to care for your little fur baby? Do you work long days and need someone to take your pup out for potty breaks? Let me do it!! I have been a dog lover for as long as I can remember And I finally moved to a place where I can take full advantage of unlimited puppy kisses, cuddle puddles and puppy playtime! My doggies enjoy running around the backyard and playing fetch with me or my sons. Treats? Tricks? I've taught my dogs, I can try to work with yours too. Colette is my name, loving doggies is my game!

Collette took extra special care of Tucker when Ineasnt able to be around for him after some stitches he had broke open and were re- stitched. She cares genuinely for the critters she is taking care of. Extremely flexible, great communication, and willing to help with anything she can.

She was great! She was on time, sent us lots of pictures, kept us informed on everything, and went above and beyond. Our dog was content and happy when we got home and we are very appreciative.

Ollie and Huey enjoyed their stay with Collette and her family. They were comfortable when they walked in the door and she communicated well throughout their stay. We will ask her to care for them again.

Schedule

I work full time for Cedar Mountain Schools right now and my schedule is pretty regular but there is someone home at our house every day and I don’t work in the summer.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard for running around and playing. I think all dogs should be allowed on the furniture because they are a part of the family too!

Pets

A typical day

During the week I am usually awake first and I let the dogs out and then feed them. Then we go back outside. Mornings are lazy. I usually let them go out multiple times a day (8-10) and leashed walks if necessary. Then in the evening I feed them and they go back out and then go to bed around 10.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs. I have a small amount of experience with medically related special needs but I’m always willing to do what needs to be done.
