Kind and Caring Dog Lover

I've been the go-to call for dog sitting for all my friends and family for the last 10 years (since high school). I've done simple checkups/walks as well as lengthy multi-week stays taking care of as many as 4 dogs at a time.

Collin was amazing with my two dogs. He’s was flexible with my schedule change. He kept in contact with me throughout and when I arrived home the dogs were happy and I had a clean house. Thank you so much!

Collin did a great job watching my babies! He kept me updated and went above and beyond when my flight was delayed. Thanks again!

Colin was great! I had a family emergency and needed someone fast. He responded quickly to my initial contact. My dog immediately loved him. During the week day, he was able to check in on Cali at least once. He texted me pictures, updates and any concerns. I highly recommend him.

Jaak loved Collin. I didn’t think that she would come home with me after staying with him. He was communicative and kind. Great with my dog who is, a healer (need I say more). Anytime I leave town, Collin will be the first one I will trust to take care of my dog. Thank you.

Great communication and excellent care. Very attentive and flexible. Kahlua was instantly comfortable which gave us peace of mind.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I am a full-time worker, but in a quiet time of business so I have fairly flexible hours. I am an early riser so I am available from 7-9am, I have flexibility at my job for a lengthy lunch around 11-1pm, and I'm available virtually every weekday after 5pm during the week as well. I am also available on weekends for visits and boarding!

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment with a dog park in a great walking neighborhood, so while I can't keep your dogs in a yard, exercise is not a problem and my apartment is very pet friendly. I'm also very open and accommodating if your pet has any specific needs!

A typical day

I love to play all kinds of dogs, especially outdoors. I grew up playing sports so physical activity and running around with dogs is very enjoyable. Depending on the pet's personalities, I enjoy thinking outside the box to find stimulation indoors as well.

Please let me know if there are any specific kinds of food/treats your pet can or cannot eat, as well as any quirky behaviors they have (example: certain bedtime routine, can't go on walks without a specific toy, etc.). I do have experience giving medications to pets as well, so if your pet needs that as part of their care I am comfortable providing that.
