Your Dog Will Become Family!
Pet care experience
Hello! Thanks for checking out my bio 🐾 (Please Note: I also take clients who do not utilize Rover, so the dates on my calendar marked as "unavailable" I am watching other client pups! Be sure to reach out if interested in boarding, as my calendar fills up quickly! I have other reviews (off Rover) available upon request too!) Most of my professional experience includes working for a dog sitting/fitness company in California. I have years of experience caring for dogs both small and large. Everything from trips to the beach, hikes, routine walks, feeding, medication administration, belly rubs and more are all second nature to me. My favorite breed = Bernese Mountain Dog! I am reliable, fun loving and of course adore furry friends. I treat every dog with respect and affection as if they were a part of the family :) My current availability is extremely flexible so definitely shoot me a message! I work in real estate from a home office, so your dog will NOT be or feel lonely! I have a deck with a fenced in yard, and a beautiful neighborhood and local park for walks. I usually set up a small gate in my kitchen area so that becomes each dog's personal area with their food, bed, crate, toys, etc. during their stay, but they are more than welcome to roam the house with me. I am more than happy to send pics throughout the day and am always a text away. I would love to develop a long term relationship with you so that your dog can become accustomed to a regular sitter or whatever your needs may be. Many times I am available for last minute care and am happy to work with you to accommodate your schedule to the best of my ability.
Reviews
Carlene has been great with my two dogs anytime I take a vacation or a long weekend out of town. I've had Carlene come to my apartment to walk/feed my pups as well as having the dogs stay by her. I know my dogs are always well taken care of and have lots of fun and outdoor time in her yard. She is responsible, friendly, and the dogs love her!

I have a fenced in yard, a quiet neighborhood with wonderful neighbors who always love to see who the new furry visitor is next door! I am always hands on with your pet, able to play and spend a lot of time outside.
Home
Information Carlene D. would like to know about your pet
The basics + any additional info that would be helpful personality wise. No breed preferences, but must be okay with a child in the house (who is shy but LOVES all animals)
A typical day
Your dog will have their own, gated area with all of their necessities available to him/her to hang out in. He/she is more than welcome to explore the house as well, I simply find it works nicely for the pups to feel they have a dedicated space in the house. We have a deck many dogs enjoy sunning on! Walking around the block, up hills, and through a park. Playing fetch, playing with the hose (if your dog loves water and it's warm enough!) and getting to explore the yard are all activities your dog will enjoy. We can even set up a few video chats during your time away!

I am a work from home mom so your dog will fit right into the day to day and will not be left alone. I am able to keep your dog on the routine they are used to in terms of walks, feeding etc.
