About Colleen

Long time animal lover with a background in healthcare. I'm currently studying so have the time and space help out other pet owners. I have a beautiful ginger cat who has reaped the benefits of pet sitters whilst I have been away. I am confident with dogs, having been around them my whole life, including working in the veterinary industry and volunteering at SPCA in NZ. My cat has taught me so much about his species, even after having lived with cats growing up (I never would have expected to have a cat in a harness! Let alone go for walkies!). I have pet sat bunnies, fish and horses also. Confident with dogs / cats walking on lead and if permitted off lead in designated areas. I will give regular updates and pictures of your fur babies and advise if there's anything untoward. As a pet owner I understand how hard it can be leaving your pet in the care of someone else, rest assured your pets will be cared for as if they were my own 🙂
Any queries or requests, just ask, I will be as accomodating as possible.
