Happy Healthy and Exercised pups!

Pet care experience

I've loved dogs since I was a kid, helping care for those of friends and family. I got my own puppy Layla from Animal House Shelter in March, and only then did I discover I could love dogs EVEN MORE! I'll play tug of war, play wrestle, fetch, chase.... whatever is your dog's favorite game is good with me. My own pup is a Boxer/Lab mix who is very playful, so I'm well versed in getting dogs to spend their energy so they can get the rest they need and it's easier for them to behave like the little angels they tend to be when their needs are met. I also trained my own pup, and am happy to do some basic work with your pup in passing, improving obedience or introducing new tricks. For a slightly higher fee I can also incorporate actual timed training sessions with your pup.

Colin has watched and walked our 2 Golden Retrievers on numerous occasions and we are very happy with his attention to & love of ouf dogs. It's obvious that they get very excited when he comes over. We heartily recommend Colin as a sitter for your dogs.

Information Colin M. would like to know about your pet

For Longer stays I would need to make sure that my own pup gets along with yours so that I'm not running back and forth constantly or having to find someone to watch my pup while I watch yours.

A typical day

Depending on energy levels of your dog I take most pups on 1 or 2 walks a day for around half an hour each. I also try to get several short play sessions in, whether it be tug-of-war, fetch, or play wrestling.
