Pet care experience

Three fenced acres. Dog lovers home

I have been taking care of and loving pets for 30 years. I had a German Shepard with degenerative myelopathy that I cared for two years. She could not use her back legs so we bought her a cart. I had another dog that lost her front right leg to bone cancer. We had her in a clinical study at the university of Pennsylvania. We took her every three week to receive a vaccine. There is not much that we will not do for our pets. They are our babies. Our house is set up for our pets. We have three acres out in the country that is fenced so the pets can roam and play. I have had dogs coming to my house for years and for most it is like their second home. When dogs are at my house they are loved and treated like my own. I have worked and trained dogs for 25 years. Two of my dogs were therapy dogs. My profession is pet care and dog walking. Animals are my passion and my life.

This was the first time leaving my 5-month old pup with anyone and it was overnight too. Colleen made me feel so comfortable in making this decision for my pup. Colleen sent me an update in the morning to let me know how Nala did during the night. It was a great experience for Nala to be away from me and spend time with another person and some other pups. I highly recommend Colleen for your daycare/boarding needs.

We had a great experience leaving our dog with Colleen! She has lovely, dog-friendly home and our pup settled right in. We also really appreciated her checking in while we were away to update us on how our dog was doing. We would be happy to book with her again!

Colleen was a life-saver!! We had a last minute family event come up so our usual boarder was booked, and then we had another Rover Sitter lined up but they had to cancel due to a family emergency.. so we were in a pickle! :( Colleen is about an hour from our home, but we felt comfortable and confident with her level of experience. She took a big risk taking our two dogs (one a working bomb dog and the other an anxious Belgian Malinois) without having time to do a Meet and Greet first. She was also quite full, but chose to help us out of the kindness of her heart! Our dogs were healthy and happy when we picked them up, and she also updated us on their well-being while we were away. It is obvious she takes great pride in her career caring for other's dogs. It's her passion and full-time job. Don't hesitate to trust Colleen with your fur-babies! She's worth the drive and price. :)

Colleen did a great job taking care of my old dog, Bentley. She is very knowledgeable about dogs, and especially good with older dogs. This gave us peace of mind. I would definitely recommend her. Next time, I will remember to check off the photo-sharing option so I can see pictures of Bentley while we are away.
