Pet loving retired Postmaster!

Pet care experience

It has been my dream to care for pets in my retirement ! Our family has had multiple breeds throughout the years. We have had adopted seniors with special needs. Puppies are in our wheelhouse as well .

Colleen was a wonderful sitter for my two elderly dachshunds. She was very attentive to their needs and made sure they got their medications daily. Overall, Colleen is very warm and compassionate and you can tell she really loves animals! She’s also very communicative and would send us updates and pictures several times a day which made us feel much more relaxed and at ease. Would have her watch our pups again anytime!
