Pet care experience

I would love to have a pet of my own, but until that time comes, I am looking to take care of yours! I grew up with a golden retriever for 13 years, and have wanted a dog ever since. I was the primary caretaker for my family's dog growing up, and have experience pet sitting both my dog as well as neighbors over the years. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages. I took care of my dog when she was a puppy, through two knee surgeries, and in old age. I live directly across from the Fens which would allow me to take your dog to the park if it is in my care, or find a park near you if it isn't. I also have a relatively open schedule since my graduate classes are only on Mondays and Thursdays, and my research assistant job has incredibly flexible hours. I will be able to spend a significant amount of time with your pets because of my schedule. I have been counting down the years until I can finally get a dog of my own, but I need to have the financial means to do so first. Until that day comes, I would really love to care for your pet - large or small.

Carly is one of the most responsible people I know. She always thinks ahead and makes sure that things get done in time. While biking across the country together this summer, Carly prepared dinner, took charge to complete daily chores, and delegated tasks to teammates to make sure everyone took part of responsibilities. When I ask Carly for help, I know she will be there as soon as she can. She is thoughtful and takes the time to get to know each person she meets. I know she will do a great job dog sitting, and will take care of the home and animals.

Information Carly K. would like to know about your pet

Before dog sitting, it would be good to know whether the dog does well on its own, or if it has separation anxiety and would require me to be there the full time.

A typical day

I live right across from a park and will take the dog there. If the dog plays well with others, several dog owners play fetch with their dogs in the morning. I also will go to a dog park if there is one nearby the owner's home. There will also always be quality play time.
