Dog Lover in the Heart of SA

Pet care experience

I recently graduated from Texas A&M University where I was a member of the nationally recognized Equestrian team, and I LOVE animals, especially dogs! Within my family, we have had a large variety of breeds of dogs. I have been involved with San Antonio Pets Alive in the rescuing and fostering of dogs without homes. The bottom line is that I understand the importance of taking care of these amazing animals who are part of the family. I am able to feed, medicate, exercise (runs or walks), and spend some quality time with the dogs. I look forward to meeting and spending time with your wonderful canines! Why I love dog sitting I have loved dogs since the day we were born! Growing up, I have always owned multiple dogs and taken care of a wide variety of dogs. About my yard I live in apartment with a surprisingly large attaches yard and within our apartment complex we have a dog park. It is a great amenity and is VERY safe. I usually only let dogs off leash in the park when no other dogs are around or if they have met the other dog. We are a smaller community so I am usually the only one in the dog park. My experience administering medication Yes, I am extremely comfortable giving medication. I have had over ten years of experience medicating dogs and horses.

This was our first time using Rover. For some reason, Carey's profile stood out to me and contacted her right away. She responded quickly and was very helpful with questions we had. We booked with Carey and she was kind enough to come meet our fur babies so we could feel more comfortable. She took care of our two dogs for 17 nights and we were totally at peace with our dogs being with her. She sent us pictures often and kept us updated. We would definitely leave our dogs with Carey again in the future! Carey was amazing!

Carey was great! Her spacious apartment is right next to a dog park. Communication was a breeze.

My pup was in great hands! Carey was so quick to respond and took great care of Rooney! Rooney had a blast playing with her sweet dog and I got pictures to update me on his stay! I'll definitely request Carey's services again!

This was my and my sitter, Carey's, first experience with Rover.com. It appears that Tucker, Daisy, and Carey had a good time. Got pictures while we were on our trip of a smiley Tucker (he's a lab) which made me that Carey was taking good care of Tucker, Daisy, and Simba, the cat. She took the dogs for walks and played ball with them, as evidenced by the ball at the bottom of the pool. The dogs were outside during the day and Carey turned on the outside fans for them to help them stay cool. When Carey came by to drop off the house keys, Tucker and Daisy were jumping all over her, obviously very happy to see her. We all had a good experience with Rover.com and I will definitely contact Carey for our next trip. I hope that Carey also had a positive experience. Thank you Carey. Bonnie, Tucker, Daisy & Simba

Information Carey N. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences. I would like to know the specifics of feeding, medicating, exercising, and other necessities that the dog or dogs will need in order to make them as comfortable as possible.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks I live steps from Brackenridge park and a short drive to the pearl brewery area and other great walking areas. Every day twice a day your dog will go on a walk, whether it be around the apartment complex or on designated trails. Your dog's sleeping arrangement In my bed...if you allow it! The more dogs in bed the better! I also love for owners to bring their dog's bed or blanket they like to sleep with. Time I'll spend with your dog As much time as I possibly can. I live 5 miles from where I work so I come home multiple times a day to check on my dogs. Time I'll spend with your dog It depends on the dog/dogs and what the owner prefers. I am available to spend as much time as the owner prefers. Extra house-sitting services Yes! I am able to do whatever small tasks are required.
