Your dog's new best friend!
Pet care experience
There's nothing i love more than being around animals, especially dogs! I want your dog to be as happy to see me as I am to see them, and I make every effort to ensure they are happy, healthy and comfortable while you're at work or out of town. I've worked in dog daycare, animal rescue, and veterinary medicine, and I like to spend my free time volunteering at shelters. I have worked with a walking service before, and I've done boarding in my home and at clients homes. I'm happy to come visit your fur baby in the freezing cold, sweltering heat or pouring rain! There isn't a pup I've met that I didn't love, and I can't wait to ad yours to the list!
Reviews
Where do I start?? Colleen was an amazing sitter for our dogs! She came to our house and stayed during our wedding weekend. During our time away, Colleen made sure to provide our dogs with love and care. Each day she sent a check in text with a picture to reassure us there was nothing to worry about. One of our dogs has very bad anxiety and gets nervous very easily. She made sure to give him his space until he felt comfortable being around her. Overall, I can’t express just how grateful we are that Colleen was able to care for our dogs while we were away.
Colleen was our dog sitter for multiple vacations and also helped take care of her at dog daycare. She is SO WONDERFUL and we miss her in Seattle! She is gentle, kind and totally reliable. We would recommend her in a heartbeat!
I have known Colleen for 2 years. We moved from Virginia to Seattle and our beagle Lincoln had a very difficult time adjusting to his new place….until he met Colleen. He took to her immediately. Not only did she pop-in for walks and meals, but she would also stay with him overnight. She's very responsive on short notice, too. Lincoln misses her since she moved to the Chicago area. Our loss is your gain. I can't say enough great things about her ? Your pups will be very well cared for Sammamish WA
First and foremost, Colleen loves dogs. She is conscientious about schedules and owners property, and is trustworthy. She will make an excellent dog walker and/or sitter for any potential clients.

Any and all breeds! If the dog has any issues with dog or people aggression, so I know wether to avoid dog parks, schools, etc.
A typical day
I love being outdoors, so your pup and I will spend lots of time outside in the sunshine and fresh air! Whether it's walking around the neighborhood or chasing after the ball in the backyard, I'll make sure they get just the right amount of exercise. We'll also spend some quality time on the couch after we've gotten our exercise.
