Your pet will love it! So LET'S GO!
Pet care experience
I provide one on one care. I pay very close attention to your pets health, well-being, emotional, and physical stability. I always keep my clients in the know with plenty of updates and pictures! WEDNESDAYS ARE BEACH OR DOG PARK DAYS. I WILL TAKE YOUR DOG IN A GROUP FOR $35 FOR 2 HOURS WITH I do require a meet and greet. UNLESS you are a out of town ZOO daycare customer, with a well behaved animal that you KNOW can get along well with cats and dogs and no behavioral issues. I absolutely love all animals However I do not take pure bred Staffishire Terriers. Rover does not cover it's walkers for bites with the fees they collect on both ends. I was bit, so I know. I also have a cat that was rescued from pit bulls attacking him. My cat loves dogs just not pitties. If your pet is not into a cat then I'm fine going to your place sans cat! I would treat your furbaby as if it was my baby! My dog is a service dog and the most well loving , behaved pet you will meet. I've been a volunteer with the Humane Society for over 15 years and I have owned a plethora of animals. I know what's good and bad for dogs, cats, bunnies, fish etc. I have been through clicker training I can work with you and your dog in training. I grew up on a ranch so I have experience with all types of animals. I live within walking distance to Balboa Park and would happily take your dog there if you would like. I'm also a fan of Coronado dog beach if you let me take your dog there!! I have administered medications for dogs as well. I also pamper dirty pooches with a fancy dog washes and doggie massages no extra charge! If your dog has a fickle appetite nothing to worry about with me. I can adapt. I know what they can and can't eat and what is recommended by veterinarians. I am the doggie gourmet chef and nanny of your dreams! I love sharing quality organic healthy meals with my pooches if its an option. I carry mace, I am a kickboxer, and I am always on alert! I would never let anything bad to happen to your baby!!

Amazing as always! Colleen takes such good care of our little fur babies. We book her every time. They love her!
Colleen is the purrfect cat sitter! I had never been away from my furry felines this long and Colleen’s professionalism, responsiveness and unbelievable care immediately quelled all of my concerns. I highly recommend her. Thank you again, Colleen!

I only take one dog or bonded set at a time to give your pet 100% quality time during boarding. My pets are 100% vaccinated. All my dogs are required to be vaccinated from Rabies, Parvo, Bordetella, Leptospirosis, Distemper etc. If I board in your home, no other person will be there, just me and my service dog Winston. I also water plants bring in mail etc. I can and do walk up to 5 dogs at a time as long as everone gets along. I buckle in pups with one of 4 special seatbelts in my car. My car is also equipped with emergency supplies like stop bleed, bandages, wipes, treats, leashes, water, etc
Home
Information Colleen H. would like to know about your pet
I would want to know about any health, behavior problems, or if they are on special diets. Also knowing if they have any triggers during walks is very important (squirrels, birds, skateboards etc). I believe good communication is a must for happy pets! My pets are 100% vaccinated. All my dogs are required to be vaccinated from Rabies, Parvo, Bordetella, Leptospirosis, Distemper etc. If your dog is not fully vaccinated, I need to know. I would also like to know what positive reinforcement techniques work best for your pet.
A typical day
I live close to Balboa Park so I could take your dog there, or to the dog beach in Coronado (if you approve of it). I like to throw balls at Roosevelt School Field and Morley Field. I walk in the shade mostly. I carry mace and I am always on alert. Your dog will be safe. I also buckle in the pups with special seatbelts in my car. My car is also equipped with emergency supplies like stop bleed etc
