Information Carla G. would like to know about your pet

I have so many years of doing this. Special needs is almost second nature. From pilling kitties to Injections. There is little I haven't handled before and in a way that makes your pet at ease

A typical day

Always fun times with a lovely park so close. I love the outdoors and any excuse to grab a leash and a furry friend is perfect!

Experienced pet sitter with over 10 years experience.I work with several petsitting companies in Tennessee. i board, walk, play and more. All animals all breeds are welcome. Live in a safe house within walking distance of Chickasaw Park. Fantastic walking trails where they can run and play.

Carla was easy to work with and very understanding of my schedule issues. Carla was great with both of my cats. I will use her again for future boarding needs.

We had an excellent experience with Carla while she cared for our Maltipoo, Princess, overnight. We reached out at the last minute on New Years Eve and she was so accommodating! She took wonderful care of her and kept us updated with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Princess was comfortable, happy, and in great hands. We truly appreciated the communication and care and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter.
