Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog sitter with 10 years experience
I'm a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of experience working in and co-owning a doggy daycare, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Building trust and making dogs feel safe, comfortable, and happy has always been my favorite part of the job. I currently offer dog walks in your neighborhood and drop-in visits. I will only accept up to TWO dogs at a time so I can give each pup the attention they deserve. While I love all animals, dogs have always been a huge part of my life and are the pets I'm most experienced and comfortable caring for. I am originally from the Hudson Valley in New York and just moved to California in early 2026. My boyfriend accepted a job as an airline pilot in San Diego which brought us to this amazing city. Working as a pet sitter is the perfect fit for our new, unpredictable scheduled life here in sunny SoCal and I am fully committed to making sure my history with caring for other people's dogs continues here flawlessly. That being said, I can't wait to meet your pups and you as well!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I'm committed to continuing my education and am currently in the process of becoming certified in canine first aid and emergency care. These skills will be crucial in the event that anything medically related happens while your dog is in my care. I am also insured as a pet sitter/walker through Pet Care Insurance.
Ratings and reviews
Carene has watched my dog Mocha on multiple occasions, she is very responsible and always timely with her meds, potty, and food. Mocha loves her and she has years of experience with dogs so I trust her with my baby
Carene provided care for our two Goldens, one who was a new puppy, while we were on vacation. This was no small task. She ensured both dogs received plenty of love, attention, exercise and care. Carene treated them as if they were her own and sent us pictures/updates to ease our worries. She is an avid dog lover and highly recommended!
I have had the pleasure of knowing Carene as a pet owner and I can confidently say she is responsible, compassionate, and attentive. She genuinely loves animals and consistently puts their health safety and happiness First. She is dependable patient and takes the time to understand each pets individual needs and personality. Whether it’s maintaining feeding schedules and sharing plenty of exercise and playtime or providing comfort and affection, she cares for Pets as if they were her own. I would wholeheartedly recommend Carene to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter or dog walker. Your pet will be in capable and loving hands.
