your pet’s “Auntie”
while you are away

Hi, I’m Colleen! My journey started while dog sitting in Hawaii for my friend's dog, Koa. Since I travel too much to have pets of my own, I discovered the joy of caring for furry friends.

Back in California, I pet sat for an anxious dog named Chili (and her 2 cat siblings) who hid in her kennel for four days. With patience, we built a friendship that taught me how much trust pets place in their caregivers.


I understand separation can be difficult for pets. I'm passionate about being the caring "auntie" who provides love while families are away. Life is better with pets, and I've found the perfect way to fill my life with furry companions.

  • we don't have kids. So our dog, koa, means the world to us. There is no one else we would trust more to take care of him.

  • Colleen was great with our dog, dude and handled his separation anxiety well. We will definitely ask for her to care for him again!
