Highlights
Pet care experience
College Student/Vet Assistant
I have worked at a veterinary hospital for 7years and I have run my own petsitting on the side for 4 years. I am experienced with all kinds of animals (exotics, farm animals, seniors, pets with behavioral quirks etc) I am able to administer medication and can handle pets with more care requirements than usual.

I take care of your pet like it’s my own. I’ve had plenty of experience both in a veterinary hospital and as a pet sitter, so your pets are in good hands :)
Ratings and reviews
Colleen took excellent care of our little guy and he was in the best mood I've ever seen him in after being gone on a trip. It was obvious he felt comfortable and enjoyed his time with her and she kept him low stress and content. What was unexpected was how well our home was taken care of. Colleen brought the garbage in, checked the mail, and cleaned up after herself (and a little extra I think 🙂) while here. We basically came back to a tidy home and a well taken care of pup and could slide right back into life after being gone for a few days. We'll definitely be using her services again.

Colleen was excellent, very responsive, and responsible.
She was fantastic! We have 2 cats and 2 dogs. She pet sat at our house when I needed to fly to Florida last minute for a family emergency. Colleen, sent us updates with pictures. Gave me such a peace of mind while gone to know my fur babies were in good hands!




Colleen was great with our cats, including one that needed medication. She is communicative, reliable, and always on time.



Super sweet gal!

Colleen was a wonderful sitter of my two dogs. She sent several updates and pictures and made sure to comfort them during two harsh thunderstorms. I came home to two very happy puppies. I would definitely hire her again.

Schedule
I am a student at SUNY Oswego so during the week I do have classes but I am more than able to balance both and I am open to figuring out what works best for you and your pet(s).
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsDogs over 1 year oldColleen can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
- Let me know if your pets have any quirks! I’m more than willing to accommodate to animals who may have some habits that turn other pet sitters away, the more I know the better I can fit my services around them.
