Pet care experience

Here for all your pet needs!

I grew up constantly surrounded by pets. Dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, frogs, fish, you name it! When I was 12, I started a pet sitting/ walking business in my neighborhood. At 15, I ran a dog washing fundraiser where all the proceeds were donated to the Humane Society. When I go home, I take care of my family's 3 dogs. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes! I have a fairly flexible schedule and can be available on short notice. Please shoot me a message if you think we would be a good fit!

The first thing you notice about Cari is her calm demeanor. My two senior pups Vanny and Elsa had a great time with Cari and her roommates. Since both oh then have somw ongoing health issues I was super nervous about going on vacation but Cari’s warm and pleasant demeanor was very reassuring. The pups were well cared for and in great spirits when we picked them up. It’s evident that they had a great time with Cari. I am sure they are already looking forward to their next vacation.

Cari was so incredible. Completely saved the day while my dog was having accidents all over her apartment. She couldn’t have been nicer about the whole thing.

Cari was great! She was super welcoming, kind, and i immediately felt like leaving Bimbo Waffles with her, he’d be in great hands! She was also very receptive and communicative with organizing pick up / drop off - as someone new to the neighborhood, I’m happy I found someone reliable like Cari!

Doggy Day Care • Jul 31, 2026

Cari was fantastic! She stepped in on fairly short notice to watch Homer during the day all week while we navigated some unexpected work commitments, and she couldn’t have been easier to work with. She was incredibly communicative, flexible, and clearly cared about making sure Homer had a great time. He was so excited to see her every morning, which told us everything we needed to know. We always felt like he was in great hands, and it gave us real peace of mind. We’ll absolutely be booking with Cari again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.
