All my friends are dogs

Pet care experience

I've had dogs my whole life and miss having one in the city! We have a lovely, spacious home in Brooklyn and want to provide a safe, warm, loving home for your woofs while you are away. I have been fostering dogs for over a year through various organizations and frequently watch close friends' dogs while they are out of town or need a night off. Dogs bring a spirit to our home that I cherish. So, I'd like to open my home to dogs in need of a place to crash. I will take them out three times a day for walks, we are in close distance to two parks, one with a dedicated dog run, and will give them plenty of love and playtime throughout the day. Just trying to have more dog friends!

Thank you so much Colleen! Mac was so happy & relaxed when we got back after our weekend away. You rolled with the punches & had no problem giving him eye ointment without any warning. Felt so relaxed knowing our little furbaby was in good hands!!

Colleen is the best! I've never felt more at ease leaving my 65lb dog with anyone else. He's spent a few days and nights with her on several occasions. Colleen is responsible, reliable, and does a great job caring for dogs. The only risk you run is that your dog might fall madly in love with her.

Information Colleen C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any dietary restrictions, medication, or behavioral quirks. Before sitting a dog, I will confirm with you when your pup usually likes to go/ how many times a day, where they like to sleep, how socialized they are to strangers and other dogs, and any other pertinent information. We have dog food, toys, and bones on hand, but if you prefer something specific, please let me know, I'll be happy to accommodate!

A typical day

I live a short walk away from Irving Square Park, and a 20 minute walk to Maria Hernandez with a gated dog run, perfect for walks and outside play. I have a relaxed, loving home to hang out during the day that is quiet and safe to rest at night. We have toys and bones and lots of dog-loving friends to play with.
