Pet care experience
I'll treat your pet as if it were my own. They'll get plenty of love and lots of playtime. I love to get outside and can take your dog on plenty of fun trails or a simple walk around the neighborhood. I can also drop by to care for your cats (or mice, fish, birds, pigs, etc) while you're away! For dog boarding, I have a fairly large, fenced yard and a friendly dog, Roo, who LOVES having a friend to play with. If your dog is not especially social, I wouldn't be your best sitter option because Roo is part of the deal! Roo gets along great with small and large dogs and loves to play. Let me know if your dog has any toy or food aggression so I can arrange playtime and feedings to avoid any conflicts. I require a meet & greet for any potential clients to have our dogs meet and allow your dog to get comfortable in my yard/home. I've been checking in on friends' pets, house-sitting, and caring for dogs, cats, birds, and small rodents since I was a teenager. I currently pet-sit/house-sit for 2 non-Rover clients but have availability for dog-walking, drop-in visits, dog boarding, or petsitting at a client's home if my dog can stay as well.
Reviews
Carly has watched our two dogs, Tanner and Zeus for 2 or 3 years. We used to kennel them, and would always worry if the dogs were OK, when we on vacation. With Carly watching them and our house, I am actually able to enjoy my trip with now worries. She takes care of our dogs, like they are hers. If you need someone to watch your dogs, you'll not find a better person.

Information Carly A. would like to know about your pet
I'd like to know your dog's general temperament: whether it gets along with other dogs and other people is key to know. I'm perfectly willing to walk dogs that aren't as social, it's just helpful to know. I can't accept non-social dogs for boarding because I have a dog of my own. My dog would love to have a new buddy, though! I also like to know where you typically take your dog for walks, and what level of endurance your dog has (basically, how long they can comfortably walk). Also, any bad habits your dog has that I should be aware of as well as what your rules for disciplining your dog are. I'm a sucker for puppy eyes but I'll always hold your pets accountable to the same rules you set. Let me know any major dislikes/fears your dog has-- doesn't like water, scared of stairs, etc! It may sound funny, but I've had to carry a labradoodle into my basement apartment because he wouldn't take one step down the stairs after his parents dropped him off! We got through it, but it's better if I know what might set your dog off :)
A typical day
I love getting out on trails and typically stick to the trails around the Rattlesnake, Pattee Canyon, or Tower Street areas. I'm a big fan of playing fetch!
