Long-time dog owner and caretaker
Pet care experience
I have cared for my own dog for 16 years now and would care for your pet like I would my own. I have 4 years experience working at an animal shelter walking, feeding, bathing, and playing with many different breeds and sizes of dogs/cats. I have also fostered a number of shelter dogs until they were adopted.
Reviews
Colleen was great with my large lab puppy and energetic husky! The dogs were happy and settled when we got home late at night so I know they were well taken care of. I would not hesitate to have her watch them again.
Colleen was amazing - she was incredibly patient with my shy puppy and made sure he had plenty of play time. She also left my house very clean during her stay. We will definitely come back to Colleen next time we need a sitter.
I highly recommend having Colleen house sit your pet(s) while you are away! Colleen did such a wonderful job putting our minds at ease as this was our first time using a house sitter. She replied promptly and sent photos while we were gone of our girl Willow absolutely loving Colleen’s company. We are so thankful for her and all of us (Willow included) can’t wait to have her sit for us again!
Colleen is a fantastic sitter! She stayed at our house with our dog for 6 days. She took such great care of Nova and house. She is very trustworthy, reliable and a great communicator.

I live in a spacious 2 bedroom apartment with one close friend, who is also a big animal lover. I live in a nice neighborhood that is close to a number of greenway trails, lakes, and dog parks. I’m quite active and love to go on long walks, hikes and even runs with dogs whenever I can.

Information Colleen G. would like to know about your pet
No breed preferences! I have experience with all ages, breeds, sizes. I would just like to know how your dog usually walks on a leash/interacts when seeing other dogs
A typical day
I love to walk on greenway trails or around local parks/lakes nearby to throw a ball/stick or go for a swim....anything to get good exercise and energy out.
