Lifetime animal lover and carer

Pet care experience

I have had dogs since I was a baby and professionally cared for pets for about a decade. I have owned large dogs (116 pounds to be exact) and small dogs, so I am able to walk dogs of any size. I have experience in many types of breeds, temperaments, and health requirements. I have specific experience with aggressive dogs (towards humans and other dogs) and senior dogs, so I can take care of a wide range of needs. I have cared for cats on number plus occasions and owned a rabbit for 11 years. All in all, what sets me apart is the love and energy I devote to every animal. I’m a recent graduate from Penn State University. I received my BFA in Acting, so I am an actor and independent contractor. I have ample free time and a very flexible schedule, since I do not currently have a rigid full time job. I will be available during the day for walks on both weekdays and weekends. I follow the schedule to which the pet is most accustomed. I want the pet to feel comfortable while their pet parent is away, so I do not want to change their daily routine. I follow the rules of the household as well. If a dog is allowed on the bed or couch, I am happy to have them there with me. If the pet parent prefers the pet stays off the furniture, I am just as happy to enforce those rules as well. I go with the flow of each individual household, so the pet parent can be stress-free knowing their pet is being taken care of in the same manner as if they were there.

Carly is great. She has cat and house sat for us for two extended trips, and she is always communicative and responsible, and our cat seems to like her.

Carly was awesome! She helped us with our cat while we were away for a long trip. She sent us frequent updates and photos and responded promptly whenever we had questions.

Carly is an excellent pet sitter. One of the cats is a bit shy, but seconds after Carly arrived for our meet & greet, both cats came out to say hello. While I was traveling, she sent me lots of photos and cute videos and kept me updated on their playtimes and mealtimes. They were clearly enjoying her company while I was away, which gave me peace of mind. Carly was a great fit and I look forward to hiring her again very soon. Highly recommended!

Information Carly S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if the dog needs any kind of special medical attention. I have given dogs medicine orally and through injection, so special care is not an issue for me. I just need to know how to best administer the medicine for the pet.

A typical day

My family dogs love to swim, so I am a fan of bringing them anywhere with water, especially the beach, and playing fetch with them. I am an avid hiker, so I enjoy taking dogs on any dog-friendly hiking trails or anywhere with nature. If the dog is friendly I am happy to socialize them at the dog park and give them some off-leash playing time. I always allow my dogs to sniff around even if the walk takes longer because it is great mental stimulation.
