Your pet's safety is paramount! I am certified by the American Red Cross in Pet First Aid & CPR and carry basic fist aid supplies. Dogs are never off leash unless inside your house or fence and will never be introduced to other dogs without your permission. Locks and latches are double checked. Instructions are followed exactly and I always include an update with pictures at the end of each day.

A typical day
I like to let the pet set the pace, but generally, I love taking active dogs on long walks, providing creative enrichment, light training, and lots of playtime. If your pet would rather cuddle and nap, we can do that as well! 🥰Your pet's well-being and happiness are my top priorities!

Reviews

Carla is very prompt and professional. My puppy loves hanging out with her!

I have been traveling a lot lately and Carla is always prompt and not only does she feed my cat she plays with her for a while and sends adorable photos!





Joy is very thorough and makes us feel very comfortable leaving our furry family members in her care. Highly recommend Joy as a sitter!


Carla was very kind, courteous, and a joy to work with. Made a tremendous difference in the joy of my vacation. My best friends were the calmest I've ever seen them while away. Carla is timely, prompt, knowledgeable, and caring. Excellent and highly recommend!
