Complete animal lover!
Pet care experience
Please only request if your dog is crate trained! They will only be in there briefly if I have to leave and overnight while sleeping (my two dogs take up most of the bed, so it is hard to fit a third unless they are tiny) I’ve been caring for/around animals my entire life. I have two small dogs and two cats of my own. Caring for them has taught me so much and made my love for animals stronger. Both my dogs and my cats are pretty laid back and enjoy sleeping most of the day. I am patient with any animal, and can adjust to any of their needs!

Once Nova and Bailey decided that my Ceilidh pup was OK, she became part of the pack! Colleen and Jacob were so sweet and understanding about all of her little quirks. (My daughter calls my pup spoiled and needy! Hmm) And I think they spoiled Ceilidh the whole time because she didn't really want to come home with me. Thank you, Colleen and Jacob. I'm sure you'll be seeing Ceilidh again.
Colleen is a loving and caring individual. I can not think of a more qualified person to care for and spend time with your pet. Her interactions with my animals have been nothing but the best quality and I can not more strongly recommend a sitter.
Penny had a wonderful time at Colleen’s place . Happy to hear penny was good with her pets too.
Colleen agreed to take care of Skecher for a day on really short notice. She was super sweet and friendly, and my dog seemed comfortable with her as soon as she came to our car to get him. She was very responsive to texts and kept us updated. He seemed very happy when we picked him up. I think he had a great time with Colleen and her fur babies. 10/10

I have a pretty big fenced in yard that is perfect for any dog to run around in! I can also provide lots of toys for inside, and the dogs are free to run around the house and play wherever they’d like. As for dogs or cats in your home, I am entertained easily and can sit and enjoy their company if they prefer a quiet environment, or I will play with them if they want to do that. I can adjust to their preferences.
Home
Information Colleen S. would like to know about your pet
I would love to babysit any breed, but would like to know their personality before taking full responsibility. Every dog is different and I don’t want to do anything to make their stay and time away from their owner difficult.
A typical day
If acceptable by the owner, I would love to take their dog on a walk, or to any dog friendly establishment. If your pet has a schedule and enjoys something at a specific time, I am happy to keep the schedule and do what is needed to make your pet comfortable.
