Missing My Fur Babies

Pet care experience

I have always had pets of all species and breeds. But now I am an empty-nester. Lost my last baby in December of 2018 and need to get some puppy (or kitty) love without adopting yet. I am just not ready for that. I am the daughter of an Michigan State DVM and I am good with most animals. I have no problem with giving medicine, including injections if necessary. I own my own home and have a nice but smallish fenced yard in a dog friendly neighborhood. I prefer to sit at my home but can certainly stay at yours if your babies are more comfortable there. But I am really bad at keeping them off the furniture! Would love to give some extra love to your babies.

Great care of Jake. Flexible when we were trapped at DC Airport and had to stay another day.

Cari gave Reggie a lot of love during his stay! She sent us pictures and provided updates while he was there. We were very comfortable knowing he was safe and happy.

Cari did a wonderful job of caring for my dog Greta for 8 nights. She texted me frequently with cute pictures of my dog relaxing and enjoying herself. I will definitely ask her to dog sit for me in the future.

We love Cari so much, this is our 4th time using her! You truly can’t find anyone more patient, loving, and caring than Cari, and we are so grateful to have her watch our dogs while we are away! She is so understanding of their quirks and is always happy to help with whatever they might need. Thanks for everything, Cari!

I have an information sheet I ask each family to complete before the first stay. I try to get as much information as possible so my guests can be happy and comfortable here.

It’s a pretty quiet life. I enjoy playing with pups who enjoy it, but I’m just as happy cuddling on the couch. I generally walk my guests twice a day. But that is based on what the parents want.
