Pet care experience
For as long as I can remember, I've had a dog in my family. Our current dog, Max, is an Aussie Shepherd mix, and we are best friends. He's the one in my cover photo! Unfortunately, he lives back with my parents in Nantucket MA, so I don't get to spend much time with him these days. I can't recall the last time I met a new dog with whom I didn't get along. I always enjoy carefully introducing myself, earning their trust, and building a friendship! Of course some dogs have rough backgrounds and are tough to warm up to, but I like to make a positive lasting impression. I love walking/running with dogs, taking them on adventures, and just being playful and friendly. This opportunity would be great for me because I currently don't have a dog of my own but I always love spending time with them. My job is pretty flexible, in that I'm usually off in the afternoons, and I can leave work for breaks to feed, let out, or walk your pet(s). I'm a talent recruiter at a booking agency in Solana Beach, specializing in international cruise-ship entertainment. I also do music production at a recording studio downtown. My interests include surfing, making music, playing guitar, hiking, the outdoors, etc. As for my house, your dog will have it to themselves! If we're hanging out there I have a big backyard with plenty of room to run around, including a 5-foot fence and two gates that will be locked. I live with two responsible roommates as well.

Colin was Raja's (my yellow lab) absolute favorite person who walked in the door. I honestly never saw her get that excited over anyone else! She was a terror at around 4 months, teething and biting and he still loved playing with her. She even started calling him Uncle Colin. Colin is kind, fun, energetic and responsible. Highly recommend :)
Colin is Pierre's ( my three year old French Bulldog) favorite sitter and Colin is the person I trust the most with Pierre. I've known Colin my whole life and I cant think of many more people who enjoying being with dogs as much as he does and I've never met a dog who didn't love Colin. Colin is fun and responsible, the perfect combo for a dog sitter.

Information Colin L. would like to know about your pet
I don't have any particular breed preferences, although I prefer the dog to be well trained and non-violent.
A typical day
We can go to the dog beach, hit the trails around SD, or go to some of your favorite places to play. I'll be sure to give them plenty of treats when they're being good, and maybe even some belly rubs if needed! I will also take any medical and dietary needs very seriously, and respect any special treatment or attention that your dog might need.
