Availability

I’m self-employed and work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can easily adjust to your dog’s routine. Whether your pup needs frequent potty breaks, long walks, or extra cuddle time, I can make it happen. FYI: Our doggy day care schedule isn’t consistent because we also board dogs at our house and some of them are not friendly with other animals. Still happy to watch your pup when available though!

Information Carly M. would like to know about your pet

I want your pup to feel totally at home, so tell us all about their routine, personality, and any special needs from favorite treats to medications. If they have quirks like being shy, anxious, or reactive around certain things, that’s helpful to know too. The more we know, the more we can make sure they’re happy, comfy, and well cared for.

A typical day

We’ll enjoy walks in our quiet neighborhood or along the Olentangy Trail, backyard playtime in our fenced yard, and plenty of snuggles. I’ll stick to your dog’s routine so they feel happy, safe, and loved all day.

Pet care experience

I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and for the past 12 years my wife and I cared for our own sweet girl, who sadly passed away in April 2025. She was reactive with other dogs and had special needs in her later years, so we're experienced with medication, senior care, and making dogs feel safe and comfortable. We’ve also looked after friends’ pups many times, from playful youngsters to slow-moving seniors. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or couch snuggles, we love making sure dogs get the attention they deserve.

Our large, young dog, Rocco had a great time while staying with Carly M! He got lots of walks and play dates. Carly was soo good at sending pics and communicating about how he was doing. We felt so good knowing that he was happy, loved and being well taken care of. We highly recommend Carly M!
