Dog person turned cat lady
Pet care experience
Growing up we always had dogs. Since I was in college I knew I wanted a dog but living in an apartment I didn't have the yard that my dog deserved. 7 years ago a litter of kittens fell into my lap at work and I took them all home and bottle fed them, and adopted all but one out. Now I live with my cat Kiki, and my boyfriends cat Dave. We are both dog lovers through and through but until we have a house of our own I'm hoping to care for your furry friends! Our friends often call on us to care for their pets so Rover seemed like a great fit. The handsome pup in my profile picture is my best friend's dog, Beau.
Reviews
Colleen was so great with our dog! She was very consistent, responsive, and flexible with his changing needs. High energy pups can be a lot to handle, and Colleen did it so well! He loves her so much! Highly recommend.
Colleen took care of my 17 year old cat while we were away. The attention to detail and care Colleen took with my baby was unmatched. She was able to administer fluids and medications (a small feat for anyone) along with making sure she was always comfortable and happy. It’s never easy leaving your little loved one, but she was able to give me peace of mind so I could enjoy my time away. She also took care of all of my plants as well! 10s across the board! Thank you Colleen!!
We have had Colleen look after both our cat and dog - she is nothing short of brilliant with them. They both know her pretty well at this point and seem very excited to have her stop by. Colleen is courteous, friendly, very knowledgeable with regards to health and behavior of our pets, and goes beyond what is expected - taking our dog for a longer walk, playing with them both for a while each time she visits, making sure they have not got into anything they should not have and is great at keeping us updated with how they are doing when we are away. She has also been very helpful in keeping to the schedule we have for our pets in terms of food and walks, which makes the transition coming home much easier for everyone. Colleen - thank you for the wonderful job you do!
Colleen is caring, responsible, communicative, and simply an animal lover. Having grown up with multiple dogs in the household, owning 2 cats currently, a chinchilla for 10+ years, and having various friends and family with pets that have asked her to care for them she is no stranger to helping when needed and providing the best and most loving care she can possibly provide.

My parents were very diligent in the leash training we gave our dogs growing up. Making sure that they were safe as well as us. I'm a very active person so I look forward to going on a long walk with your furry friend. My brother has a gorgeous great dane named Bowie and a westie named Heath so I'm used to dogs of all sizes.
