Experienced worker - Flexible

Pet care experience

I am passionate about caring for dogs. I volunteer with the local dog rescue and have worked with and watched dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I have experience with bathing and basic grooming. I also have experience working in a doggie day care and lodging facility that focuses on force free and fear free practices as well as enrichment. I absolutely loved working there and learned so much about dog behavior, care, and dog body language. I have worked on helping dogs with aggression and anxiety issues and truly love dogs. I am currently a junior in college and my schedule is very flexible. I am a responsible individual with a passion for dogs and a strong work ethic. I enjoy walking, running, and training dogs. I have grown up with multiple dogs of different breeds and sizes my entire life and am comfortable watching multiple dogs at once (if you have more than one dog). I have pet sat since I was in middle school and understand that dogs are more than pets but a part of the family. I strive to meet all of your and your pets needs when I work with them. When I am working with and watching dogs, I treat them as if they are my own and work to ensure they are happy and comfortable.

Carly was the BEST house sitting we have had for our two German shepherds! She took fantastic care of them and kept them very active. We thoroughly enjoyed her updates while we were gone and the dogs were very happy and comfortable the entire stay! We will definitely be rebooking!

We love Carly!! I was lucky to have Carly do a house visit on my husky puppy the first few months of us getting him. I would get these little cute detailed updates on him and how the visit went and what he was doing and how he was behaving during her visits. She was always on time and even sometime go over the designated time. She would sent me cute videos of my puppy. Would definitely recommend her service to anyone. I will definitely continue to use her service in the future.

Carly is simply wonderful. Going out of the country was so easy to do with her watching our babies. She sends pictures every day and detailed reports of our animals! We adore her!

Safety, trust & environment

I take the utmost precautions when caring for your pets. As I said previously, I understand they are a part of the family. I follow all of your instructions and make sure your pets are happy, comfortable, and safe when they are with me.

Information Carly H. would like to know about your pet

Before working with a dog, I would like to know his or her general temperment and what activities, toys, and treats he/she enjoys. I would also like to know his/her typical routine and any allergies or medical needs. It can be stressful for dogs when their owner is away so I like to know how I can help soothe the dog and make sure he/she is comfortable and has a good time when they are with me. I also like to try to stick to the routine the dog is used to so that it is easier for the dog. I do not have any breed, age, or temperment preferences. I have a wide experience with dogs and am comfortable interacting with all dogs.

A typical day

I am very flexible on the activities I will do when with your dog. They will enjoy walks and play time with toys. I also love working with dogs on enrichment activities, such as treat puzzles, sniff walks, swimming, etc. If there are activities your dog especially enjoys, such as fetch, going to the park, or going on drives, I would love to do those activities with him/her.
