Pet care experience

Loving fur-pet home away from home!

I have been taking care of and living with dogs and cats of every kind since I was 11 years old. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets for many years. I believe every animal has a right to a caring and healthy environment where they can thrive and live their best life no matter what age, size or special needs they may have. I have taken puppy training course and will be happy to help teach your puppy manners. Also, I have experience giving senior pets medications and special care in their older years. I can administer first aid in every minor or major situation as needed.

It was clear from the moment I met her that Cari is experienced with a variety of dog breeds and that she understands what different dogs need to feel safe and happy. She took such loving care of my pups, and they returned to me happy and tired, just as they ought to be. My dogs absolutely love her, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving caregiver for their pup(s) during your next vacation!

Cari is extremely loving and respectful to our dogs. She did such a fantastic job watching all 3 of our dogs. We loved how communicative and understanding she was. Our dogs had so much fun with her!!

Cari did a wonderful job keeping us posted on how our dog was doing. She has a once outdoor space with a fenced in yard and comfy cushion indoors. The other dogs at her place were social and nice companions.

I have a fully fenced and large back yard for running around, with two friendly pups of my own to play with your baby. I have experience crating dogs and cats as well as letting house broken pets discover and roam around my pet safe home.

Pets

A typical day

I have a very active dog walking neighborhood with wide roads and safe areas to take in the world outside. I love to go in my backyard and just play and romp with the pups...throwing balls and playing tug of war. I have many, many toys and you are welcome to provide your own but it is not necessary.

Please, let me know if your pet has health concerns or behavioral problems ahead of time so that I can prepare a better environment for their special needs. I believe in very clear and concise instructions from you and I will provide all the extra service your pet needs to be healthy and comfortable while staying with me.
