Work from home, total mom package!
Pet care experience
I grew up always having a family dog and a few cats, and my first 'baby' was a gorgeous, soft-tempered lab who passed away a few years ago. We now have a 3 year old rescue pup named Clover. She is athletic and fairly low key, loves to snuggle. She LOVES little dogs and is super gentle and playful. Dogs over 45lbs we must do a meet and greet to make sure they get along. She does not like dogs that bark at her or are bristly. My household has three kind, animal-loving and fun young teens and an active mom so your pet will have endless attention and plenty of walks. I have a great indoor cat, Topper. He doesn't mind dogs if they don't give him the side eye I hope to host dogs that like kids, are gentle with other dogs and behave on leash. I have a home with a large fenced yard in an urban area with sidewalks ideal for walks. I work from home and can offer midday exercise and bathroom breaks and lots of company. I would love to give your fur baby a home away from home while you are at work for the day or out of town!
Reviews
Colleen and family took wonderful care of our pup. I don’t think she even missed us!
Colleen has been so good to our Shih tzu dog, and we always trust that he is in good hands. We have left him here on multi-night stays and he has a great time playing with their dog and kids. They take him out on many outings and adventures. We also love that there is a nice yard always available. I would recommend Colleen for anyone looking for an outstanding and reliable dog sitter!
Colleen watched our dog while we were out of town for over a week. She was great - sent updates, took him on adventures to the park, and gave him lots of love! Thanks again, Colleen! Teo already misses you guys!
We are happy repeat customers! Highly recommended :-)

Let me know if your dog has met a cat, do they guard foot or toys? Where they sleep, if they are crate trained and allowed on furniture.
A typical day
We will go for walks, our pup Clover will play with your dog in the house and in the yard. We do regular obedience with our dog and those visiting if the owner would like.
