Pawsitively a lover of all animals

Pet care experience

I have had dogs my whole life; miniature to full size dobermans, pit bulls, jack Russell, hound dogs, cane corso, Siberian husky.. I’ve had a lot! I have loved them all big and small. If you have an active dog I would love to take your dog running with me. If you have an old dog I would love to take him/her on a nice mellow walk with lots of belly rubs and scratches behind the ears! I currently volunteer at Lost Dog Animal Rescue. I walk and socialize the dogs during the week. Sometimes socializing means snuggling with the dogs and showing them love. It’s a tough job but someone’s gotta do it! On the weekends I handle dogs at adoption events. I have hosted dogs at my apartment from overnight visits to 2 weeks.

Carla was great with Delta. She gave me constant updates and sent lots of pictures. Delta seemed to settle right away and will absolutely use her in the future!

Carla is amazing!! Went above and beyond for watching our dog, who has some stranger anxiety quirks. Could not recommend her enough.

So comforting to have Carla's attentive warmth and expertise when needing to part with our still sort of newly adopted (coming up to our 1-year anniversary) 11 year old Yorkiepoo.

Grateful that Carla offers her care and expertise for our furry friends. And in particular for our first booking, even though just a day-long visit, to having watched over, kept company, and cared for our sweet, older, and in some ways fragile Ru.

Information Carla S. would like to know about your pet

I love all breeds! I am not shy around any dog. I would like to know how the dog is around other dogs and on a leash (leash reactive?) and if the pup can be left alone for short periods of time.

A typical day

Long walks, runs (if applicable), snuggle sessions, play time....
