I closely follow the instructions for care as prescribed by the pet parents. My dog loves to go on adventures, so we know all the good spots! I never have them off leash in public/unfenced areas and provide constant supervision, while respecting their need for space when necessary.

Information Cari W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know of any special needs or accommodations your pet needs ahead of time, and any feeding/water break schedules you'd like me to adhere to.

I love to help your dogs get lots of energy out through exercise and play, stay mentally stimulated through games and checking out new smells through the neighborhood or nearby parks!

Pet care experience

I've had a wide variety of pets over the course of my lifetime, including exotics. In my highschool years, I volunteered at Rainbow Parrot Rescue, I have been a cat and dog mom in my adult life and I run a 501c3 nonprofit small animal rescue. I am also experienced in wildlife rehabilitation and I perform animal Reiki as part of my full time business. Having gone through the hardest parts of raising pets as family members, I am also experienced in end of life care and illnesses (cats hate taking pills, but I'm a seasoned veteran at tricking them to take their antibiotics anyways!) I also had a rescue rottie who was diabetic and a maine coon undergoing cancer treatments, both requiring at home subcue injections. My rottweiler required insulin and blood testing daily so if this is a need of your babies, I have the experience and confidence required! I am fortunate enough to own my own business and therefore I have full power over my schedule. I can accommodate most times with enough notice. I follow any and all instructions left by the homeowner for care of their fur babies, closely adhering to a schedule especially pertaining to pets that require outside potty time and walks, plus lots of snuggles, playtime and baby talk :) I'm grateful to say that I run my own business, and therefore I have the ability to create my own schedule! I am flexible with my time, given enough notice! I follow the client's instructions carefully, while keeping the pets engaged, safe and loved. We will have lots of entertainment, playing games, going potty and getting in lots of snuggles!

Cari is absolutely wonderful! She watched my dog over the holidays when I was out of state. My dog, Jack, has anxiety and can be nervous but Cari was great with him! He loved her! I also felt so comfortable having her taking care of him. She was always on time and showed him lots of love. It was very comforting to me to know someone was close by who really cared about Jack. When our flight back got cancelled and delayed Cari was able to add on extra visits to see Jack even during a busy week, which really helped and shows how much she cares. I will be using her in the future and highly recommend her!

Cari is professional, timely, personable, and absolutely marvelous with our dog Jade. She knows dog behavior and has been great helping our recently adopted dog gain confidence. She picked up our job same day and has handled a full week, super important since I injured my knee and wasn’t able to do Jade’s daily walks myself.

Cari has been amazing! She has come to my home 4 days a week for a couple weeks now and my dogs love her. I have 3 and they are a handful but Cari crushes it. She sends great pictures and detailed updates! I plan on continuing to use only Cari for as long as possible.
