Collette was an absolutely perfect host for my dog Lucky. I received ongoing communications and photos and I am sure that Lucky was well taken care of. Collette's set up is perfect and her pup immediately joined up with Lucky to form a small pack. I would definitely use Collette again and give her my highest possible recommendation.

Collette is a Dog Lover from way back in fact she studied dog breeds as a child in 4H. She is a very dependable and trustworthy person that would treat your pet as well as the owner would.

Collette is a true dog lover. When she was a child, as soon as she learned to read, she was reading books about dogs! Researching them, learning about how to best care for them, and the intricacies of each breed. As an adult, her love for dogs has continued. She takes caring for them as a top priority and never turns down an opportunity to pet or play with one. Having Collette take care of your dog would be the best decision you ever made for them!

Collette loves each and every pup she encounters. I have witnessed this when we are walking and she points to every dog we pass. She has an unmatched passion for dogs and even writes pet blogs in her free time. Collette would be the perfect walker/sitter for your fur babies and would treat them like her very own. :)

Collette is very kind to and comfortable around dogs. I have seen firsthand her interaction with a high-energy setter. She is gentle but commanding and easily controlled his rather rambunctious ways. She did not shy away when he got riled up, but held her ground and helped settle him down. She always handled him very well on walks by getting him to heel when he has a tendency to pull.

Collette is a wonderful caretake and pet owner. She follows clear instructions to watch your pets and she loves your animals just like they're her own. I knew that by having Collette watch my two cats, the cats would have a great time with her and they will be loved. She always gave them lots of love and attention, even though they can be challenging and noisy. She would leave my house clean and I never had to pick up after her when she would finish a job. I probably had her sit for me several times, including long weekends. After she left my area, I didn't know what I would do without her. I would completely trust her with my little guys!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment that does not allow pets but I would keep your pets happy in their own home by utilizing their toys and yard that they are familiar with!

Pets

A typical day

I love playing in the backyard with dogs and their toys. I think dogs deserve a few nice walks a day as well, if they are able, so they get to see some world outside of the four walls of your home.
