I’ll treat your baby like my own!
Pet care experience
I am a doggy lover!! ❤️ I have 2 shihtzu dogs - Muffin (female) is 10 years old and Stewie (male) who is 5 years old. I love walking, playing, cuddling, giving belly rubs, and spoiling our own babies, so I hope to be able to do the same thing to YOURS! I prefer small to medium dogs. I have a fenced in back yard for your dog to run and play in freely. There are no children in the household and it is smoke free. If you have a senior or special needs dog, I am more than happy to take care of them! I look forward to hearing from you and learn more about your doggy and welcoming them into our home. I do work Monday-Thursday 8AM-5pm and on Fridays 8AM -2PM…..I am less than 10min away from house, so I can conveniently stop in during lunch breaks to check on dogs and give potty breaks if needed! I also have a doggy camera in the house so I am always keeping an eye on them even when gone. I can make sure that my dogs and your dog are safely separated during the day as well (if needed)❤️. Dogs are welcomed to be on couch and in bed. If your dog needs to be crated, I am fine with doing so…whatever makes your pet most comfortable!
Reviews
Colleen was wonderful and I’ll definitely have her watch my little Cocoa again! He loved it there.
Colleen was so awesome. She was open and available to help out when I was in a pinch, and was so kind throughout the entire process to both myself and my pups. Her dogs are also so sweet and they made quick buddies with mine. I would HIGHLY recommend Colleen for any dog sitting needs!
Colleen did a fantastic job with my two dogs Gus and Ginger. If I could I'd give her 10 stars. She regularly kept in communication with me and sent me plenty of pictures. The experience was great and I will be using her services again in the future.
Colleen did a wonderful job watching my dog Lychee for the weekend! Her own 2 pups were very sweet and played with my dog. My dog also had a great time playing in the large backyard, and when my dog puked, Colleen washed the dog bed for me! Highly recommend!

I have a fully fenced in back yard, so you have no worries of your pet running away. If you are ok with me taking your dog for walks in my neighborhood, I would love that! I am always aware of surroundings and other dogs walking around.

Information Colleen V. would like to know about your pet
I would like you to tell me about your dog before any services. I prefer a small to medium dog because I own 2 small dogs myself. I like to know where they normally stay in the house during the day while you are gone to work (are they crated or just left in a room?). What is their eating schedule? How many times do they eat a day? What is their sleeping arrangements at night time? Do they like to sleep in their own bed or in human bed? I like all the details! Do they require any daily medications/vitamins/treats?
A typical day
Walks in a park or around the neighborhood, playing fetch or just squeeking some of our favorite toys, belly rubs and naps on the couch ? or just hanging in the back yard
