I’m a recent University of Miami graduate with a flexible schedule, which allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the day. I’m available for regular walks, drop-ins, and extended care, and I plan my daily routine around pets’ feeding, exercise, and comfort needs. I’ll be returning to school in the fall, but I’ll continue to maintain consistent availability and clear communication so pet parents always know what to expect.

Recognized leader in animal care

Pet care experience

What sets me apart is deep, hands-on rescue experience. I’m a board member at an animal rescue and a Humane World for Animals Trailblazer Award recipient. I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, special-needs animals, cats of all ages, and other small animals. I’m comfortable administering medications, maintaining feeding and litter routines, providing exercise and enrichment, and helping anxious pets feel calm, safe, and secure in new environments.

I have known Colin since he was a teenager and have watched him grow into a responsible, compassionate, and dependable adult. Through his family’s Animal Rescue, I have worked closely with him for many years, and I have personally been the Adoption Coordinator for the rescue for approximately the past eight years. During that time, I’ve seen firsthand Colin’s natural ability to connect with dogs of all temperaments, his strong sense of responsibility, and his calm, caring presence around animals. Colin has extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs, understands their needs, and always puts their safety and well-being first. He is reliable, attentive, and genuinely loves what he does. I have no doubt that he would provide excellent care and outstanding customer service through Rover. Any family trusting Colin with their pets can have complete peace of mind knowing their dogs are in capable, loving hands.
