Safety, trust & environment

I will follow the client's directions for exactly how they want their pet cared for. I know my dogs and cats have their own specific needs, so I expect the pets I watch will too.

Information Colleen M. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know any special meds your pets take, how you would like them to be fed, what they are allowed to do, or not allowed to do. I would also like to know if they are reactive with toys, food, or anything else I need to pay special attention to!!

A typical day

A day starts with your pet getting up as early, or as late as they want to!! We eat, go out and play, hang out, play some more, and go for walks. If your pup likes the part, then we go there too!! Anything and everything your pet want to do and experience, um up for it too!!

Stress-free, Safe & Happy pet care

Pet care experience

What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my experience and comfort level with a wide range of pets and their needs. I have a background in dog training, which helps me understand their behavior, reinforce good habits, and confidently care for pets with challenging behaviors. I am also experienced in sitting for multiple animals at once while still giving each pet individualized attention. I can also administer medications and follow detailed care instructions. As a dog mom of four myself, I know how important trust, safety, and communication are-and I care and love every pet as though they were my own.

Colleen has watched our cats many times and always does a great job. She truly loves animals, so we know our kitties are in great hands while we are away. She sends us pictures, which we really appreciate. As a dog owner and former cat owner, she understands what pets need and always takes great care of them. She’s the best!

Colleen is a wonderful pet caregiver! She is the most caring pet-momma and gives 100% all the time. She is reliable, competent, and communicative. I felt totally at ease that my pet was safe, happy and well looked-after. I highly recommend Colleen to anyone looking for a compassionate and trustworthy pet sitter.

Colleen has cared for both of our dogs over the last 20 years. She’s been someone who we quickly came to trust because we knew she would care for our dogs as her own. Colleen’s lifelong love of animals and in particular dogs is something you and your dog will know immediately.
