Pet care experience

Dog lover!

Hello! I love caring for dogs. I have had 2 dogs in my life, a German Shepard and a huskie mix, and a cat. I have taken care of, raised, and trained my dogs. Currently I do not have a dog or animals so it will be just yours. I am very good and comfortable with them, I can handle any temperament-crazy or chill. I would love to take care of yours! I will walk them multiple times and get all their energy out! I promise you your dog will be tired and ready to go to sleep when you get home! They will be loved as if they are one of my own. Thank you!

Colleen was amazing with Archer! Took him on hikes and so many activities. He came home tired and happy. She sent lots of pictures and was very communicative. I especially appreciate how flexible she was when Winter Storm Fern delayed our return by over two days! I will definitely be booking with Colleen again!

Colleen is just amazing with dogs, and all animals in general! She has had a German Shepard and a huskie all her life, and they are her bestfriends. I think she would be just perfect for this job and I would greatly recommend her!!
