Pet care experience
My home is a very safe and clean place for your pet to stay while you’re away, I keep the floors vacuumed and everything up to make sure there are no choking hazards. I have experience with all types of animals, large to small I grew up riding and showing horses now I have shifted that love of the show ring to dogs, I currently show and breed Shetland Sheepdogs I have a grooming table and brushes if you have a dog that needs bathed and brushed out, I can do that while they are in my care, if requested. My daughter is a Jr AKC handler and loves dogs just as much as I do. I have worked in Veterinarian offices, so I am comfortable giving medications etc. I have a large fenced in back yard which we spend a lot of time in, my daughters (13 and 11) are typically in the pool in the summer, and I supervise from the screened in porch or the ground patio :-) The dogs love running around the back yard playing with toys and each other. I have a fountain in the back yard for easy access to water. Picture of the front of my home in my photos. I have 3 running filtered water fountains in my home so everyone always has access to cold fresh water. I am a Realtor so I work from home unless I need to run out for an appointment. If I have to run out, I have cameras on my first floor so I can keep an eye on the dogs while I am away. I play Dog TV and pull the blinds to make for a calming environment if I am not there. I take the dogs on a walk in the evenings (weather permitting) after dinner and during the day they have free roam of the house and back yard. While in my back yard, even though fully fenced they are always supervised My large fenced in backyard has cameras and secured with a lock and an alarm on the gate. I will provide picture and video updates while you are away. I try to accommodate special requests as best as I can. Please keep in mind if your dog has special needs (depending on the need) the rate may change
Reviews
Carleen was very caring and kind. She let us come in the day before to make sure Simba is comfortable with her pets. We felt very comfortable leaving Simba with Carleen. ☺️ Thank you
Cedar had a BEST time! I was so grateful for pictures while we were away. I was sure Cedar wasn’t going to want to come home! Definitely will be working with Carleen again. Thank you:)
Carleen was great with Cash while he stayed with her for 2 weeks! He had a great time.
Carleen always provides outstanding care and keeps us well informed. Thanks Carleen!

Information Carleen P. would like to know about your pet
I can help with some special needs dogs and high energy dogs. We can discuss the specific needs of your dog as needed prior to booking. Depending on the need the rate may vary 1. Please let me know if your dog requires any medications/injections 2. If you would like your dog taken on a walk, I prefer a harness for safety purposes. 3. If your dog sleeps/in or needs to be in a crate if I run out, please bring your crate with you. 4. I do offer exclusive boarding, please let me know if you need time just for your pup at my house. There is different pricing for this option. 5. I do offer pick/up drop off service for an additional fee.
A typical day
I have a big back yard the dogs love to play in. I have a pool so the kids and I spend a lot of time on the screened in porch or floating around in the pool, the dogs are often outside with us. We go for walks around the neighborhood a couple times a day to get exercise and to see and smell new things, so make sure to pack your fur baby’s harness and leash! If you have a Cat (We LOVE Cats here!) I have a secure screened in porch that the cats love to lounge in with cat trees and a tv. I play ‘Cat TV’ for them so they can hear the birds and watch the squirrels on TV.
