Please let me pet your dog/cat

Pet care experience

I grew up with 3 dogs, two pit bulls and a dachshund, and lived with a cat for about a year. I love animals and believe they are truly part of a family. I try and be as active as possible so playing and walking animals is perfect because it gets us both moving! I'm comfortable with all breeds and sizes of dogs. I will give your dog so much love and exercise to keep them happy and healthy while you're away. I also do a lot of dog photography! Let me know if you're interested in getting some pictures done for your furry friend and I'll do it for free for practice.

Caren is awesome! Our dog and cat are so comfortable with her and we felt at ease being away and knowing she was there at our house with them. She left everything in great shape when she left and the pets were content and happy when we got home. Will definitely be booking her again! Highly recommend.

Caren is an amazing caretaker and a very compassionate and responsible person. She cared for our dog Olive in her last few days, as she passed away shortly after we left home. Caren handled everything with such grace and empathy. We feel lucky to have found her.

After we had a meet and greet with Caren, we knew she would be the perfect person to watch our dog while we were traveling! She was easy to talk to and warmed right up to our pup! Caren was on time to get to our dog the first day and communicated so well during the weekend. Lots of adorable photos! We will definitely have her back again!!!!

Caren did a fantastic job watch our dog Sam! During our initial meeting, she asked if Sam enjoyed hikes, so thought she might take him for one long walk while she looked after him. Instead we got photos (without asking, which is a huge plus) of our very happy dog running around in various settings around the area. As added perk, dishes were all done and left in drying rack and house was all in order when we returned. So Caren is not only an excellent dog care provider but a fantastic house guest. We will definitely reach out to Caren again the next time we travel without Sam and highly recommend her!

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is a priority when caring for pets. I want to make sure the pet feels comfortable with me. I would want to know if the pet is reactive towards other and what they’re favorite things to do are.

Information Caren S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know how quickly your dog warms up to people and what I can do to make them feel comfortable. How they will react to other dogs or people while on walks and how they do in the car. I would also like to know where your dog likes to go for walks and if they enjoy hiking!

A typical day

I love to take dogs out for long walks cause it gets me outside too! I think play time is crucial and am very willing to take dogs to the dog park or a fenced in field to play.
