Safety, trust & environment

I treat each animal as one of my own, and always try to be aware of their individual needs. Sometimes it’s playing fetch and going on walks, and other times it’s just sitting on the couch for pets! I do my best to clean up any messes made by the animal in your absence, and I can bring in mail or packages when requested!

Information Carly D. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if there are any health or aggression problems so that I can give your dog the smoothest transition to you leaving for a bit!

A typical day

We have lots of land to run and play! We go on field trips to town, and places like Petco and Lowe’s! We are located a mile from the beautiful Piney River for swimming in the summer!

Pet care experience

What sets me apart from other sitters is that I’ve devoted my life to the animals. I worked with nonprofits throughout my teens, fostering and volunteering. We had a variety of pets during my childhood, and I have experience with larger livestock, as well. I worked management during college, but found my calling once again with the animals. I got a business license and made animals my full time job.

Carly is so good with our animals. It seems we always have some sort of animal drama happening when we are away and she always goes above and beyond to make sure everyone is taken care of. We appreciate her so much!

Carly did it again! I never have any worries when we are gone - I love the updates and seeing the photos for our Bella. She is the ultimate best. Thank you again Carly!

We were so pleased with Carly, we knew we were in great hands after meeting her. She took such good care of Daisy & Bentley for our family. We have now met our future dog sitter!

One of the best in the area. She was flexible and caring. She took care of my kitty even when the weather was bad. Would definitely be using her services again.
