Hi, I'm Colin! I'm a Licensed Practical Nurse, proud cat dad, husband, homeowner, and podcast host. I'm looking for flexible opportunities where I can bring my caring and organized nature to families and their pets while I grow my tech startup. I'm reliable, proactive, and detail-oriented - the kind of person who anticipates needs before they're even mentioned. With an 815 credit score and experience serving on my HOA board, I take pride in being responsible, dependable, and someone you can truly count on. I have plants of my own, love animals, and genuinely enjoy creating calm, welcoming spaces. I'm also interested in growing into an essential role as an executive assistant for the right family - someone who helps everything run smoothly behind the scenes. Whether it's pet care, errands, household organization, or daily support, I bring energy, positivity, and a "get it done" attitude to everything I do.
We had a great experience with Colin. He did much more than just the basics of feeding and checking in; he really took the time to spend time with our cat and make sure she had some quality play and cuddle sessions. It was clear he wasn't in a rush and genuinely cared about her being comfortable while we were away. We came home to a very relaxed cat, and we’d definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful sitter!
