Pet care experience

Your Pet Will Love 5 Acres Fenced!

Your loved ones will feel at home in the country. I work from home with law enforcement all around the US, so I'm always available for drop ins or vacation watch. I'm also a volunteer EMT. My 2 teens love to play with our visitors, so bring their favorite toy! I have 5 acres, fully secure fenced in yard for small and large dogs, with plenty of space for your pets to run and play. I have 3 gated areas for small, med, large dogs. I have Multiple large (4x8x6) kennels so your dogs have a safe space to eat or take a break from playing with the others. We have walking trails by the house where we go on walks. It's a peaceful, relaxing environment where every dog and cat quickly settles in and feels at home. Our furry visitors naturally adapt to the calm, laid-back atmosphere, making their stay as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. Message me with any questions!!

Colleen was absolutely one of the best care sitters for all three of our dogs. We got updates and pictures, and not to mention my dogs loved it with her. She’s professional and timely and she cared for the dogs like her own. It was limited to find care for two puppies, one being a year and a half and another only being 6 months old who wasn’t fixed yet but she was willing to take them with no problems, including our elderly dog. I plan to use her any time we need a dog sitter for long or short trips. Her house is well set up to give the dogs space and freedom to play and relax. My husband and I were thoroughly impressed and plan to refer her to anyone and everyone we can. The peace of mind knowing our dogs were so well loved and taken care of while we were gone is something we can’t thank her enough for. You’re a rockstar Colleen, thank you again. 😊

Colleen did great with our crazy crew. I highly recommend her. She sent us pictures and our dogs got a mini vacation while we went on vacation.
