Pet care experience
I'll love your fur baby like my own
I've always had a dog. I had dogs growing up, I adopted a dog when I moved out on my own, and I adopted another dog when my children were old enough. Dogs are an important and special part of the family. I enjoy giving them attention, taking them for walks, brushing them, and of course, cuddling with them. I am observant of their communication styles, and use my observation skills to make sure I attend to their needs and keep them happy. I lost my special girl recently, and this is the first time in a while I am without my own dog. I would love to help you care for your dog while I decide whether to adopt again.

Ratings and reviews
Lovely, kind, communicative. Would absolutely trust her to watch my dog again.
Caren was very accommodating to our situation and made our wedding weekend a lot easier. She communicated well and was very kind throughout the entire process.
Caren was great! My dog seemed very happy there and she seemed to take great care of her. Her house is in a nice neighborhood and my dog’s age got a lot of good walks and visits to the dog park, etc. Would definitely recommend Caren!
My golden retriever mix stayed with Caren for 3 weeks, and I could not be happier with the care that she gave to my dog - Rex. When I came back to pick up Rex from his stay, he was happy to see me, but also he was very excited to show how happy he was in Caren's home. I could see how much she cared for him by the way he responded to her - kept on going back to her with a wagging tail (which with past sitters wasn't the case - he usually just waits at the door to leave). I would highly recommend Caren for your next sitter if you want someone who will create a caring environment for your dog, that in turn will give peace of mind.

Schedule
I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I am available to go for walks and give potty breaks almost anytime day and evening.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a townhouse that does not have a fenced yard. However, I used to take my dog for several walks per day for both exercise and potty breaks. Dogs are welcome in any part of the house, or can be restricted to downstairs, depending on their needs. I am happy to visit your pet in your home to offer a potty break, take for a walk, or just give some attention.
A typical day
On a typical day, we would go for a walks around the golf course and neighborhood, play inside, nap when needed, and of course, snuggle.
