Pet care experience

Tiny Tails, Happy Hearts 💕🐶

Hi, I’m Carla! I offer a cozy, loving home where small dogs can feel comfortable, relaxed, and right at home while you’re away. I specialize in small dogs and keep my boarding group intentionally small—no more than four pups at a time—so each dog gets plenty of personal attention and care. Your pup will enjoy two walks each day, outdoor time, playtime, companionship, and lots of love and cuddles. I keep things calm and comfortable and do my best to follow your dog’s normal routine, helping them settle in and feel at ease. I know how hard it can be to leave your dog, which is why I provide regular photo and video updates so you can see how your little one is doing and enjoy your time away with peace of mind. ❤️ I especially love caring for small dogs who enjoy a more personal, home-based environment, including puppies, seniors, and pups who prefer a quieter setting. I’m generally best suited for small dogs around 15 lbs, but I’m happy to consider pups who are a few pounds over depending on their size and fit. Every dog I care for is treated like family. I love getting to know each pup’s personality, routine, and little quirks, and my goal is for them to have a safe, happy, and relaxing stay until you come home. I’d love to meet you and your pup! Feel free to message me anytime to set up a free meet & greet or check availability. 🐾

Carla was fantastic. Maverick really enjoyed being there and she took him on a golf cart ride to Cape Harbor, and walked around. Very attentive to Maverick.

Carla is awesome with Sky and keeps us updated on how things are going!! Sky was in great hands to help her through her anxiety of fireworks and thunderstorms while my husband and I were out of town giving us peace of mind. Thank you Carla, we appreciate you!

Schedule

Pet care blends naturally into my daily routine. As a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, I’m used to giving lots of love and attention to our own pets, so adding your pets into my day feels easy and enjoyable. I’m able to stop by throughout the day to make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and happy.

Safety, trust & environment

During boarding & drop-ins, I make sure your pets get love, attention, and care tailored to their routine. I handle feeding, playtime, walks, and any special needs, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away.

Pets

A typical day

I like to make every visit fun and relaxing for your pets. Dogs can enjoy walks, playtime, and plenty of affection, while cats get interactive play, brushing, and cozy companionship. I always match their energy and do the activities they love most to keep them happy and engaged.

It’s helpful for me to know your pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs before I board or visit. Please let me know about their feeding schedule, medications, favorite activities, and any quirks or behaviors I should be aware of. I also love knowing what helps them feel comfortable, whether it’s a certain toy, a favorite spot, or specific instructions. The more I know, the better I can make them feel safe, happy, and cared for.
