Pet care experience

Here to support all pet lovers!

Hi, I’m Colleen, the proud owner of a very friendly and energetic cat named Cleo who I’ve had since she was a kitten until now as a 10-year-old cat (who I firmly believe will live forever!) I’ve also lived with animals my entire life as my mom is an Animal Science major and has therefore always loved and kept many animals. I am lucky to have a remote job that provides me with flexibility in my schedule to drop-in whenever needed. I used to travel often for my previous job, so I know what it’s like to want the best care for your animals while you’re gone and be able to trust that your beloved pet’s care and comfort is being tended to just as you would if you were home. I make sure to provide adequate communication to appease any nerves and questions or concerns are always welcome. Picky pet owners are owners that truly care and is something I can relate to. I look forward to meeting your furry friends!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I make sure pets receive plenty of love, attention, and companionship, while also following their individual routines and needs. I take extra time to make sure they are comfortable, cared for, and have everything they need while in my care.

Dog Walking • Sep 11, 2022

We are SO grateful Colleen was able to watch out dog, Basil, on such short notice. She came to do a meet and greet the day after I contacted her and was able to take Basil on walks over the weekend while we were out of town. It was Basil’s first time with someone other than my family watching her and she was pretty wary at first. Colleen was able to win her over with treats and took everything at Basil’s pace, eventually convincing her to come outside. By the second visit our dog was excited to see her!

Colleen is awesome! She watched our two miniature dachshunds for a weekend at our home and she made it a very smooth experience. It gave us great piece of mind to know that they were in good hands while we were away. We’ll definitely be repeat clients!

Highly recommend Colleen! both our dog and cat were very comfortable with her. She even noticed our Maine Coon cats tendency to "get into stuff" and report back to us, so there were no surprises. We are very comfortable having her in our home taking care of our fur-kids while we're out of town.

Amazing sitter who was very respectful to my house during her stay. I would highly recommend Colleen to anyone who is looking to house sit and spend time with the fur babies. Thank you for taking such great care of my old ladies and grumpy little old man.

Just any necessary behavioral tendencies, such as “doesn’t like small dogs”, “not a huge fan of children”, “likes to chase after bicyclists”, etc. I’m able to work with it all if I know beforehand.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
