When you’re away, your pup can play
Pet care experience
I am an avid dog rescuer who has a passion for helping and training my foster dogs. I own 2 mastiffs and a miniature Schnauzer, but my home isn't complete without the pitter patter of foster pups running around. I've worked at a dog kennel on and off for 15 years (2005 -2020), and now have a full time job working with kids in a special education classroom. I have a roommate who also helps out, so generally dogs aren’t left alone for more than 4 hours. I have taken a dog first aid/cpr course and have learned a lot about dog behavior through fostering and working at the dog boarding facility. I am patient and understanding and will work with any type of dog personality. I change my training style and demeanor to best fit the dog. Some dogs need a firm handler, others need a more quiet and less confrontational approach. I do have a full time job, but as I stated above, my roommate is often home when I’m not and vice versa. I spend the majority of my free time with my four legged friends. My dogs are well socialized and comfortable with any dog that comes into their home. I do have a specific way on integrating new dogs in to my home so as to ensure everyone feels safe and everything stays positive and under control. Staying at a new place can be exciting, and/or scary which can creates a higher intensity environment. I introduce your dog to my pack when things have calmed down, and he/she is more relaxed. Because of this, chances are you won’t see any of my pups when you initially drop off your dog. I am more than happy to provide any accommodations that I can to make your pet's stay as comfortable as possible. My home isn't very big, but it's cozy, private and definitely a dog house. I live on almost 3 acres, with about half an acre being fenced. I provide plenty of socialization, exercise and cuddles at home. We have walking trails behind my house and down the street so no one ever gets bored! I am always available via phone for any updates or questions you may have!
Reviews
Carley did an amazing job with my dog! She kept me updated and took such great care of my buddy. Highly recommend!
We left our puppy at Carley's for a night and he had so much fun playing with her dogs. She sent photo updates and text updates and it was great! Very happy with her service and will be going back!
Carley was so great with both of our giant breed dogs! We left them for 5 days and they were perfectly happy when we returned. I would highly recommend Carley to watch over your pets. Thank you again!!!
Our pups were well taken care of! It was such a convenient and great experience!

Information Carley R. would like to know about your pet
If they have any allergies, have any sort of toy/treat aggression, any “pet peeves” or things they don’t tolerate well and if they can be aggressive or reactive towards myself or other dogs
A typical day
I live right by a park and there are trails and walking paths along the bluff I live right by a dog park, but my whole house is like a doggy daycare so I don’t visit the park too often. I will also never bring your dog to a dog park without your permission.
