Dog mom turned dog sitter

Pet care experience

I am a proud dog mom to a two year old golden retriever, Reagan. I've spent the last several years dog sitting for family and friends. Now that I have a pup of my own, I know how nerve racking it can be to leave your dog. I'm here to help provide peace of mind while you're away because I'll treat your pup how I would want my own to be treated. Safety, excecise, attention, and fun are all things I cherish as a dog owner and sitter. I will make sure your loved one doesn't miss a beat in their normal routine. I have experience with handling puppies, dogs of all sizes (big or small), and even older dogs that may require special care.

Cara was a great dog sitter! She was very patient with our nervous doggy and she was able to make her feel comfortable. Also, her dog Raegan is a sweetheart! We would definitely recommend her!

Cara has watched my dogs many times. When we were on our honeymoon one of our dogs got sick and she took her to the vet and treated her like she was her own dog.My dogs love seeing her and I love getting my picture updates from her when I am away from my fur babies.

As a pet owner, Cara is very attentive to her golden retriever and takes excellent care of her. Cara's pet is clearly very loved, she's a very happy dog. Cara has dog sat for me. She was on time, followed care instructions to the letter and kept our Pet engaged and busy so he wouldn't miss us too much. Most important, Cara is dependable and very very comfortable with dogs. My husband and I were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing our pet was in good hands. We give Cara a very high rating.

Information Cara S. would like to know about your pet

Have there been any incidents of aggression, accidents, or medical problems? Any allergies or bad habits? Or instead of bad habits, does your dog have any special skills like being able to push a door open with his snout or being able to jump up and reach the countertops? I am not breed specific, although I do have a weakness for golden retrievers.

A typical day

Most of our walks will take place right in our neighborhood, Westvale, where there are plenty of new and exciting things to sniff and check out. It is nice to stay close to home and our neighborhood is very large so there is always a new tree or fire hydrant to discover.
