Highlights
Pet care experience
Your Pet is Our Passion
What sets me apart is consistency, structure, and attention to detail. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable, hands-on care throughout the day—not just quick drop-ins. I’m especially strong at maintaining routines, which helps pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and small changes so I can adjust care in real time. I’m experienced with: • Puppies and reinforcing basic routines (potty schedules, crate familiarity, structured play) • Adult dogs with regular exercise and enrichment needs • Senior pets who require a slower pace, patience, and closer monitoring • Multi-pet households with different needs and personalities Clear communication is a big priority for me—I provide regular updates and photos so owners always feel confident their pet is in good hands.

Colin was so helpful, and was able to help out last minute! Scout was very happy and would absolutely love to send him back here when I need a good place for him for the day.
Colin took good care of our boy, on short notice, which was super helpful for a last minute trip. Our dog seemed to have a good time!
Colin was great with Rolo. He took good care of Rolo and provided pictures and regular updates throughout the duration of Rolos stay. Highly recommended !!!!!!
Colin was fantastic and helped us out when we needed a last minute sitter for our dog Oakley. He took great care of him and our minds were at ease knowing Oakley was in good hands while we were away.

Schedule
I work from home and manage a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. I structure my routine to accommodate pet needs first—whether that means morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care. I am available for weekday and weekend bookings, including repeat schedules. Because I’m not tied to a traditional 9–5 outside the home, I can maintain reliable routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Safety and trust are my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, routines, and any specific needs before care begins. In my home: • Pets are supervised and kept in a calm, clean environment • I maintain a structured routine to reduce stress and keep pets comfortable • I avoid overcrowding to ensure each pet gets proper attention In clients’ homes: • I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, medication, and routines • I respect your home and keep everything clean and secure • I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing I’m attentive to behavior, energy levels, and any signs of discomfort so I can respond quickly if anything seems off.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day is built around the pet’s normal routine to keep things familiar and stress-free. Morning starts with feeding, a walk or outdoor time, and some play or enrichment. Throughout the day, I incorporate additional walks, play sessions, and quiet time depending on the pet’s energy level and preferences. I balance activity and rest so pets stay engaged without becoming overwhelmed. Evenings include another walk, dinner, and wind-down time to help them settle comfortably for the night. --- Fun Activities I tailor activities to each pet’s personality and energy level. Some examples include: • Walks and outdoor exploration • Fetch, tug, or interactive play • Puzzle toys and enrichment games for mental stimulation • Relaxed companionship for pets who prefer a calmer environment My goal is to keep pets happy, stimulated, and emotionally comfortable while you’re away.
