Pet care experience

A quiet location provided for pup!

I’ve taken care of many dogs from teacup poodles to massive golden retrievers for several years and have experience with dog walking and dog sitting. I’m currently working part-time as a daycare teacher and am home the rest of the time to play and spend time with your pups! I am available for boarding any day of the week and for walks on the weekends or evenings! I have no animals or children and am able to provide a peaceful environment for your animal. The apartment complex I live in has a fenced grass area and the suburban area around is very walkable!

Colleen was wonderful with our big dog! She sent regular photo updates and let us know how he was adjusting. Dexter came home happy and healthy!

Colleen was amazing with my dog, Ember! Very communicative and it's clear she has a lot of experience. My pup loved hanging with her for the weekend! I also really appreciate the check ins with pictures. I will definitely be booking again 🙂

Colleen came to the rescue of our spring break vacation when our regular dog sitter wasn’t available. It’s hard to find a sitter for our anxious dog, but he was instantly comfortable with Colleen, and that’s a big relief! She took great care of our pup, sent lots of photos and videos to update how he was doing. Our little boy sure seemed happy and comfortable being with his new sitter. Colleen also saved us when we had a flight interruption coming back from our trip. Per our very last minute request, Colleen kept our pup safe one extra day until we were able to come home. We truly appreciate Colleen’s flexibility and understanding. We would definitely book with her again.

Colleen has dog sat for us several times, and each time we know that we’ve left our 85lb senior husky in great hands. She provides easy accommodations, great communication, and cute pup pic updates. She had our dog over Christmas and even made sure he had a wrapped present to open. I definitely recommend this sitter for any pet sitting needs ☺️

We had such a wonderful experience with Colleen as our dog sitter! She took amazing care of our corgi, Hugo, and it was clear from the start that she truly loves animals. Colleen kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Hugo was happy, well-cared for, and clearly enjoyed his time with her. We couldn’t recommend Colleen more highly to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
