Dog mom, work from home!
Pet care experience
I got my first fur baby a little over 15 years ago and my second baby 3 years ago! I know what it is like to care for senior dogs and puppies and enjoy looking after them. I treat them as if they were my babies and part of my family, yes they have multiple clothes but don’t worry I won’t dress your fur baby unless you want me to and bring their clothes 😉. I have taken care of multiple family and friends dogs in the past and recently I have been helping out a friend take care of their 2 dogs on a consistent basis, my babies and I enjoyed meeting new friends so much that I figured why not open my home to other dogs! I have taken care of up to 5 dogs at a time, a few friends were all out of town at the same time! So I am used to having a full house 😉 Whether you need a place for your fur baby for a day or a couple of days I would love to help you out. When they are with me they will have other friends to play with and plenty of toys! Since I work from home I can be flexible with walks and if they need medicine I can make sure they stay on schedule. I do let me dogs go on the furniture and sleep with me so yours will too unless they are crate trained and you let me know that is your preference. If you have any questions feel free to reach out.
Reviews
I highly recommend Carla as a pet sitter. She was incredibly attentive with my dog Bella and tended to all of my dog's special needs. She provided me with frequent detailed updates about how my dog was doing (which I loved) and lots of pictures during my dog's stay. I am extremely happy with Carla's services and am sure that your pet would be in great care while staying with her.
Carla is very reliable and loving when she looks after my dog. She always arrives on time and follows instructions perfectly. I know my dog loves her and trust her with him everytime.
Carla is wonderful at taking care of my dog Max. She is very loving and thorough in instructions of his care. She definitely gives me peace of mind when I’m at work that my dog is being well taken care of.
Carla was so loving with my dog, Max. She agreed to do a check in on him last minute and gave me peace of mind while I was at work. I definitely will use her again on a check in or walk because I trust her with my fur baby!

While your pup is with me, they will be practicing their social skills as they will also be with my dogs! I can walk your fur babies as much as needed; just let me know what their schedule looks like at home, and I can mirror that. For feeding, to avoid food mixing, I have gates that are used so each pup can eat their food. I stay with them while they eat; I don’t want them growling or playing instead of eating! For sleeping - If you crate your pup, I have a big living room where I can put the crate while they are with me, or if you don’t mind, I can let them sleep with my dogs; they are a friendly bunch ;)

Information Carla C. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs, behavior that I should be aware of and what their schedule looks like with you.
A typical day
During their stay your fur baby will play with me and my dogs, we have plenty of toys in the house for them. If the day is nice I can also take them to the park nearby so they can take some of their energy out.
