Experienced Diligent Loving Care!
Pet care experience
Growing up on farms and in a pet loving environment, I was able to care for dogs, cats (and many other animals) from birth and into seniority. At a young age I had the unique opportunity to help my grandmother with breeding and delivering Golden Retriever puppies. There's nothing like being a kid and running around in the yard with a pack of chubby fur babies chasing you. There's also nothing like cleaning up and caring for those delightful fur babies! She had many books around the house on dog training and behavior that I quickly devoured. Besides that, I've cared for all sorts of dogs throughout the years with all different temperaments, from a nervous Chihuahua with separation anxiety to a confident, energetic Pit Bull. I also have experience caring for elderly dogs and dogs with special needs (especially those that can't see well or are blind). They are all special to me and there's nothing I'd rather be doing than giving your fur babies a great, healthy experience! From my tween years, keeping my dogs busy learning agility, basic training, and various other tricks was a daily activity and still is today. Over the years I've helped a few friends with training their dogs and given them tips and advice with doggie related problems. I will use all I've learned and knowledge from my experiences to take the best care possible of your furry friends.

Safety, trust & environment
When your pets are with me, I will be sure to keep up any training and rules you have set in place. I will diligently lookout for their safety and take care of any needs they may have.
Information Colleen M. would like to know about your pet
I love all breeds of dogs from teacup to giant but there are some things I would like to know before caring for your pet. Do they have any fears or triggers? Is there anything I should lookout for or avoid on walks or time outside? Are they aggressive when it comes to the food bowl? How are they around children and should we avoid them on walks? Will they need any medication? Do they get over-strained during exercise? Do they have any quirks or anything else I need to know about?
A typical day
We will go on walks in your neighborhood. I can play with them or work on any training during drop-ins/walks. I will always make sure to give them lots of love!

Availability
🤝🏻While I prefer in person meet and greats, I am available for virtual and over the phone ones as well. I believe they are a really great tool for peace of mind. 🕐 Scheduling: I have been running my own handmade business from home for five years and I also work at a lovely horse stable nestled in Chuluota. My hours are flexible as I am able to run my business on my own time and work by the job not the hour. For my safety, I prefer not to have repeat weekly walks after dark but I am available after dark for non-repeating bookings such as vacations or weekend getaways. 💲 Budget Accommodation: For longer bookings or bookings with multiple animals please contact me so I can adjust the price to something that works for both of us!
