I’ll love them like they’re mine.

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of dogs and cats for 15 years, including my own, neighbors, and friends. I am experienced in dog walking, overnight and day time pet sitting, etc. I live walking distance to Rittenhouse Square and the Schuylkill River trail/dog park. “Everyone thinks they have the best dog, and none of them are wrong.”

Cara is such a fantastic pet caregiver! I have two dogs that Cara has walked when I am at work and dog sat multiple times while I am away. She is always timely and extremely responsive, giving frequent updates and photos of the pets. One of my dogs has a lot of anxiety and isn't always the best with strangers, but Cara is always so good with him. She was so patient to give him space and let him warm up to her, and continues to help to calm him in moments of anxiety. I would definitely recommend Cara for caring for your pet!

I have known Cara for over 15 yers and she is the most dog-loving person you will ever meet. She has watched two of my dogs countless times, both letting them out or taking them on short walks and overnight week long stays. There is nobody I would rather trust with my dogs than her. My dogs, Tabbie and Goose, (a lab mix and a boxer) get so excited whenever we pull up to her house for them to stay! She is very responsible and send me updates and photos of them every single day. She has grown up with dogs and knows what dogs need to feel safe and comfortable. I absolutely recommend Cara as a dog caretaker for your dog. Know that your dog will be in the best hands possible with her.
