Smoke-free Kids-free Home with love

Pet care experience

Ever since I was a kid 👧🏻 , I've been passionate about taking care of dogs. My journey began with my very first Golden Retrievers and extended to looking after my neighbors' dogs. In my sophomore year of college, I welcomed my first fur baby, Muffin, a Mini Golden Doodle, into my life. My family of fur babies grew during my graduate studies at Columbia University, where I added another Mini Aussiedoodle to our home. As an enthusiastic dog mom, I cherish every aspect of life with my two cute fur children🫶🏻🐕🥰 This year marks my sixth anniversary as a devoted dog mom, a journey enriched with quality experiences in canine care. My home offers more than 2,000 square feet of space, along with a small backyard, ideal for dogs to play and relax. Working remotely allows me the privilege to spend the majority of my time with my dogs. This opportunity also equip me with the qualities needed to take excellent care of your fur babies.

Caren is such an amazing person and very caring towards her dogs and others. She made sure my pup had the best time while staying with her and took him like her own. She is very responsible and attentive to the pets needs. I would definitely have my pup stay with her again!

Caren is a great dog mom. She is super attentive to her pets and always loves meeting other dogs as well! She puts the needs of her pets above her own and is always thinking about them! She is responsible and truly loves meeting new people and new dogs. She will take great care of your dog and treat them as if they were her own. I would definitely let her watch my dog!

Caren is a phenomenal pet sitter from dogs to cats, she is a communicative and responsible person. You can trust her to look after your pets. We had a great experience with her and will be using her again.

Caren loves and respects dogs so much. She is a perfect potential Rover. From the way she takes care of her two dogs, I know this will translate over to new dogs. She has the care and patience someone needs to walk dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

My pups are my constant companions by my side nearly 24/7, except for the brief moments when I step out. I believe in creating a space where they feel completely at ease, which means they are welcome on the furniture and have the freedom to roam and rest wherever they feel most comfortable. One of my dogs even shares my bed with me, enjoying the warmth and closeness that come with being part of the family 😋🐶🫶🏻🫰🏻

Information Caren Z. would like to know about your pet

It's important for me to understand your dog's unique needs and behaviors in advance to provide the best care possible. Please share if your dog has any allergies, special dietary requirements, or specific behaviors I should be aware of, such as sensitivities to certain environments or social tendencies. This will help ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for your pet.

A typical day

Majority of the time I’ll be with your pet in the house and just chill with them in the living room or my room upstairs. I am also passionate about engaging dogs both physically and mentally during our walks. We will explore the new scents in my neighborhood, and take an adventurous route through the Civita community and nearby parks, ensuring their safety and well-being at all times.
