Hello! My name is Colleen and I cover Paignton & Torquay at present. 

Animals have been at the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve owned dogs since I was 10 years old and haven’t been without one since — I currently have two of my own who I adore more than anything. I’m truly dog-obsessed in the best way and love caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities.

I previously worked as a veterinary receptionist, which gave me valuable experience in understanding animal behaviour, basic health needs, and how to keep pets calm and comfortable. Before that, I ran my own luxury rabbit and guinea pig boarding business (it would have been dogs too if my house had been bigger!), so I’m very used to providing reliable, attentive, hands-on care.

I have lots of experience with both energetic puppies and gentle senior dogs, and I always tailor my care to each dog’s unique needs — whether that's playtime, slow and steady company, feeding, or just giving them lots of love and reassurance.

A Typical Drop-In Visit Includes:

• Letting your pet out for the toilet
• Playtime, cuddles, and company
• Dispensing any required medication
• Feeding them according to your instructions
• Refreshing their water bowl
• Making sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well-cared for
• And of course… plenty of TLC!
