I care for them according to the instructions and guides that a home owners sets and send lots of photos and communicate throughout the entire stay. In a clients house, I will leave the house how I found it and treat it how I would like some one else to treat my house.

Information Carly S. would like to know about your pet

It is important for me to know how much exercise they require throughout the day, how many times they typically need to go to the bathroom, and meal/snack schedule.

A typical day

Walk to the park by my house and go down the trail, play with them in my back yard, and always have the toys they love around and accessible to them.

Responsible and fun dog lover

Pet care experience

I am a dog and nature lover. I love going on long walks and would love a dog to take with me! I grew up with a dog in the house and am a responsible and loving pet care provider. Additionally, I have a flexible schedule and live in a house with a gated backyard that is right around the corner from a park. I am able to provide constant care and take the dogs out whenever they or the pet owner needs. I will love your dog (almost :)) as much as you do! Please reach out for any additional questions or information you would like me to provide, I would be happy to do so to make the owners comfortable.

Carly was absolutely fantastic caring for our dog, Kongo, while we were away on vacation. She was consistently timely, punctual, responsible, and extremely responsive throughout the entire process. Most importantly, Kongo absolutely loved her, which gave us tremendous peace of mind while traveling. What truly stood out was Carly’s professionalism and calm demeanor when she unexpectedly had to deal with a malfunctioning smoke alarm at our home during our trip. She handled the situation confidently and without hesitation, acting as though it was no inconvenience at all — despite it being something far beyond what should normally be expected of a dog walker. Knowing Carly was caring for Kongo made our vacation far more relaxing and enjoyable. We are incredibly grateful for her reliability, kindness, and dedication. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy and exceptional pet care. Five stars all the way!
