Pet care experience

Happy pets, happy life!

I do work with rescue dogs and Volunteer for several rescues. I Work wonderful with dogs of all sizes and ages. Have helped train Service Dogs with Paws For Vets, am a member of PSDT, and helped train 1000s of dogs basic obedience in a local pet store. Also an AKC, CGC certifier. I live less than a mile from a vet and the dog park if ur pet stays with me. If I stay at your house I will be there overnight. Don’t mind staying on the couch. I am great with cats and other animals.

We appreciate that Colleen was available to watch our Truffle girl last minute. She took great care of Truffle and kept us updated. I felt comfortable leaving Truffle in Colleen’s care. She was understanding and was able to handle all Truffle’s special needs. We definitely use her again.

Safety, trust & environment

My home is pet friendly with a fenced in back yard. We feed twice a day with full time access to water. We play and snuggle, getting plenty of enrichment and attention. Animals are well taken care of, flea prevention and Rabies Vaccination are a must.

Pets

A typical day

Get up and go outside, then we have breakfast. After breakfast we go back outside for some play time. Dogs are let out again around 1 and 4 and any time they ask in between. Dinner is around 7 but can be earlier if needed, then back outside. We go to the park several times a week.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Colleen can host up to 4 pets per night
My dogs are not exactly social. Not fans of playing with other dogs. They keep to themselves but dogs will get enrichment from me playing with and walking them. My cats are all young still and very playful. They get along great with dogs, not sure about other cats.
