Energetic female who loves dogs

Pet care experience

I am able to connect with dogs on a very great level because of my friendly and energetic personality. I am patient and responsible. I will play with your dog until it is tired out. I am gentle with dogs and I know how to properly take care of them. I love dogs so much. I had a chocolate lab growing up and she lived to be about 14. I am stern with dogs who don't listen and I am gentle and calm with dogs who are shy. I will always make sure that the dog goes to the bathroom and has eaten their food. I feel that I can bond very well with all different types of dogs and the dogs seem to be very happy when they are around me.

Colleen was fantastic with our pets and our home. I was worried about leaving my 14 year old dog with anyone but Colleen was absolutely super with every one of his (often messy) issues, going above and beyond to take care of him and the house. Plus our cats have a diet with a bunch of additional supplements at different meals, and Coleen had no problem at all with that complicated scheme. Great communication with us throughout her stay, house was spotless when we got back, really happy we found Colleen and would definitely recommend her housesitting and petsitting services to anyone. Thank you, Colleen!

Colleen stayed in our house for two nights to watch our pup Juju while we were out of town. When I met Colleen a few days prior for a meet and greet, she immediately clicked with Juju and I could tell she had a strong affection for dogs. Colleen was communicative during the stay and sent photos. When our dog was resistant to eat his dinner (likely because he was distressed that we left him), Colleen was thoughtful enough to hand feed him his dinner. This really impressed me. Juju was very happy when we got home and I could tell he had been well cared for while we were gone. Also, our house was very clean. I could barely tell that Colleen had stayed at in our home.

Colleen took excellent care of our two dogs and cat during an overnight stay. She kept us updated on walks and sent cute pictures of their snuggles. We would highly recommend hiring Colleen!
