Pet care experience

Caring Cara at your service!

I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a young adult. I grew up with pets and am a huge animal lover. Neighbors, friends and family have all relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I have experience in working with blind dogs, a diabetic cat who must receive shots every day at a specific time and potty trained a 12 week old puppy. I had two dogs on national dog day and was able to one to Krispy Kreme for doggy donuts. I brought back more delicious treats as I picked up the 2nd dog. With the owners permission I took sweet Pheobe to the Trash Panda's Wet Nose Wednesday baseball game. She had a blast! Any fun activity I find I like to keep the dogs entertained and bring along with me to any dog friendly event.

Cara was able to squeeze my pups in as we were visiting town. She sent me photos and a video of my dogs, which helped a lot with knowing they were in good hands!

Took great care of our dogs, got daily pictures and updates. Both dogs bonded with Rigsby and came home tired and happy. Highly recommend and will absolutely use again.

Cara was very accommodating and watched my pup Jasper while I was visiting town dropping my son off at camp. She helped Jasper feel right at home. Jasper made quick friends with Cara’s adorable Bernedoodle. I highly recommend! Thank you!

Cara was awesome! She came over to check on my dog, Melo, multiple times per day while I was out of town. She fed him, let him out to potty, and kept him company. She made sure Melo was still feeling loved while I was gone, staying extra some days to make sure he ate all his food or just to let him soak up the last bit of sun. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and I’d recommend Cara to anybody!

I work remotely so I have the flexibility to care for your animals. Who doesn't love a good distraction with doggies or cats? I love the company!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in backyard with no neighboring dogs on either side. I will be able to let them run free and burn off some energy and have potty breaks as needed. Any particular feeding schedules and dietary restrictions can be accommodated.

Pets

A typical day

I live right across from a park and LOVE to take dogs there and play fetch. There is so much room for them to run around and burn some energy. Walks around the neighborhood are always fun and full of all new smells and I have even gone on bike rides with my regular dogs.
