Loving, caring, kind, genuine!
Pet care experience
I have looked after and been around animals for my entire life, I grew up around farms. I have been around all kinds of farm animals and have looked after hobby farms for weeks at a time with my 2 children who also love animals. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats at home, previously I had a ferret, 3 hamsters, 2 other cats, and a bunny. I recently looked after 6 bunnies for 2 months while friends were in India, I regularly watch my neighbours dog . I have looked after and groomed elderly animals. I have been house and pet sitting since I was 12 years old and helping on farms my entire life. I am not scared of any animals as long as they are friendly of course. I am open to doing drop ins for animals that don’t like kids as I can leave the kids in a car while I tend to them but I prefer animals that are okay or just nervous around children as that is normal. Please let me know ahead of time of any information that I would need to know like that.
Reviews
Carlea is great! An excellent communicator and extremely trustworthy. I would not hesitate to book her again in the future.
Carlea was amazing with our energetic pup! I requested a walk a little short notice and she made time to come and meet my dog the day before the scheduled walk. Her daughter is also great with dogs. Absolutely recommend!
Carlea is reliable and thorough, and she took excellent care of my cat during her drop-in visits. I highly recommend hiring her to take care of your pets!
Carlea did an excellent job taking care of my cats and I'd recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She was always available to answer any questions I had while I was away and provided updates and photos following each visit. It was great to have the peace of mind knowing that the cats were being taken care of by Carlea while I was away.

I have a fenced yard with 2 sucky dogs and 2 cats, the cats are nervous of new animals (normal) and one dog appears to be reactive through a fence but has never had any issues with other friendly animals so far, he just likes to be in charge but is really a big suck, I make sure that they take their time getting to know each other to ensure a low stress environment. I Love brushing and pampering my animals and other peoples if they allow it. I Use non toxic shampoo made with castile soap for bathing. My animals are aloud on furniture and on our bed when they are clean and dry. We love going for walks weather permitting, also can in rain (we don’t melt) just prefer the sun of course. We treat everyone’s animals as if they are our own and love them all the same.
Information Carlea D. would like to know about your pet
My preference is for dogs that are okay with children but I can work around that as well. Let me know if any special needs or interests your fur babies have and what they don’t like.
A typical day
I love taking dogs for walks, playing games like fetch and chase, pampering them through brushing or bathing and giving them lots of attention. My children love all animals as well.
