Pet care experience
I would love to visit your pet and give them the attention they need! I understand that pets require patience and understanding with new visitors, and I will make sure they're comfortable with me. I love providing mental stimulation and playing with pets--so point me to your pet toys and we'll have a blast. If your doggo is more laid back, that's cool, too. I'm great with hanging out and giving head scratches!!! 🐾 I LOVE KITTY CATS, TOO! I know cats are temperamental sometimes 😂 I'll give them the *perfect* amount of love! I will make sure your pets have fun, stay safe, and feel like they've been left with someone who loves them...almost as much as you do! ❣️ In addition I.... •will always send pics if you request them •will follow all instructions carefully and lovingly •will let your pets get all their sniffs in, walk them nice and slow if they want •will give your pets allllllll the love they need while they're in my care.

Colleen went above and beyond helping me with my pets. She cared for my 3 cats, one being disabled and she also cared for my hamster and tortoise. Each pet was given attention individually. Not only did she feed and spend time with them she even cleaned them and helped me with an ant problem. I also got pictures and videos from my pets while I was away! I felt at ease knowing Colleen was caring for my pets.
My dog is almost 14 and doesn’t do well with just anyone. She also requires a specific amount of medication every morning, that I told Colleen she didn’t need to worry about if it was too much to remember. BUT she went above and beyond and gave her all the medicine she needed each morning and made sure she was happy and not stressed while we were gone. I HIGHLY recommend her!!!
Colleen has been a great pet sitter for my cats! She is very reliable and trustworthy. I would absolutely recommend her to watch your furry friends!
We had an absolutely phenomenal experience with Colleen! With 3 dogs, 3 guinea pigs, and a gecko, it can be challenging to go out of town on vacation and find someone willing to give your pets the love and care they are used to getting from you. After having Colleen sit for our pets this last week, she will be our FOREVER go-to for pet-sitting! I'm pretty sure when we walked back in the door, our dogs were looking for her to come back and play with them! Colleen did everything we needed done...and MORE. She gave meds, provided playtime, and even sent pictures to reassure us that everyone was happy and healthy. If you're looking for a caring animal-lover to watch over your fur-babies while you're away from home, look no further!

If I'm visiting your home, I will respect your space and keep my word and your trust. I will always abide by your rules and meet expectations. If your pooch is with me at my house, they will have a dedicated spot to eat and stay hydrated. They will be able to use my enclosed yard to go potty and exercise. They will be able to relax or play... And I am happy to take them out for exercise on their leash. Just let me know what you prefer. I do have two cats (who won't be around) and one medium sized, well mannered 6 year old dog who is very obedient. I will care for your pet based on your instructions. I will ensure potty breaks are sufficient and that they're in a calm environment. I have gates, a kennel, and a fenced backyard.
Information Colleen S. would like to know about your pet
History of aggression and how you deal with that. If they pee when they're scared or excited... So I can be prepared lol.. I need to know if they're on meds, what their med schedule is and how you administer the meds, and side effects. I need to know about any unique behaviors they have, if they are allowed snacks (and what snacks), and if they eat and go straight outside or need time to digest before asking to go potty.
A typical day
With the dogs I watch, I generally will pick up their favorite toys and play fetch, tug-o-war, or just give them scratches/pets. I love to talk to dogs and get them excited!
