Happiness is a warm puppy
Pet care experience
I've raised and worked with dogs of many breeds and all sizes, from puppies to seniors who need extra care. I've cared for animals that have abusive or neglectful homes and have gotten my own pets as rescues so I understand the challenges they can pose. I'm patient with shy or frightened dogs. I hae been a full time pet sitter for over a year, and my friends have always called me first when they need someone to watch their pets. In my life I've cared for hundreds of dogs, and cats, at their home and mine. I look forward to meeting your "little one" and making a new friend in the process. Please message me for multiple dog rates. I generally charge $40 per night as my base rate, but I do not charge $40 per dog if there is more than one. Thanks!

Colleen took care of our house and our two furkids for a week recently. She did great! She took them for walks twice a day, which I know they loved. When she first arrived to meet them, Marley loved her at first sight. Our other dog Opal is very shy, but Colleen was patient and knew how to handle shy dogs until she was comfortable. It was so nice to relax on our vacation and know that our house and dogs were happy and taken care of.
As always, fuzzy faces and home well taken care of and we look forward to seeing Colleen soon for our next trip. She’s responsive and a joy to work with! 😁
Colleen and her mom Pat took great care of Rita while we were away on a weekend adventure. They are true dog people who have a great understanding of dog behavior. They knew how to make Rita comfortable in a new environment and knew how introduce her to their dogs one by one. I think being able to go meet them and their pups a couple of weeks ahead of time was helpful for Rita and my husband and I, especially since it was the first time we left our new-ish rescue dog with a sitter. We would definitely leave Rita with Colleen again in the future!
Colleen took great care of Lola and our home on our extended vacation. Thank you!
