Pet care experience

Experienced dog and cat owner!

I’m a lifelong animal lover and am experienced with dogs and cats. I have 2 senior dogs that I’ve had since they were puppies (a Newfoundland and a Basset hound), and 3 senior cats, so I’ve gotten pretty good at taking care of older animals with health issues, including giving meds orally and topically. I also have 2 cockatiels and a canary!

Safety, trust & environment

I am careful and observant. I will always verify that your dog’s collar and leash are on securely before we leave the house. If you have a fenced in yard, I’ll ensure the gate is closed and latched, and I’ll watch to make sure your dog doesn’t get into anything it’s not supposed to.

Colleen did a great job of taking care of my 3 cats. I would definitely use her again and recommend her services to others.

Colleen was absolutely amazing with our furry (and feathered!) family. She cared for our 3 dogs, 5 cats, and 3 birds like they were her own. One of our dogs was a senior who was blind and deaf, and another was recovering from knee surgery — she handled both with so much patience, love, and attention. We came home to happy pets and a peaceful house. It’s such a comfort knowing they were so well cared for.

I’ve been a stay-at-home mom for a few years. Now that my youngest is in kindergarten, I have time during school hours to work. I’d love to use that time taking care of your pets!

Please let me know if your dog has any aggressive/biting tendencies. Give me a heads up if there’s anything I should watch out for when walking your dog through your neighborhood.
