Carly can care for
Availability
I've been caring for dogs and cats for more than 20 years, and spending time with animals has always been one of my favorite things. Over the years, I've cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from playful Chihuahuas and energetic puppies to gentle Huskies, senior pets, and independent cats. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give each pet. I take the time to get to know their unique personality, routines, and preferences so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and reassuring presence nearby, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I'm experienced with senior pets who need extra patience and care, including administering medications and following special routines. I'm also comfortable with puppies who are still learning and need consistency, supervision, and lots of positive reinforcement. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to feel connected when you're away from your furry family member. That's why I provide regular updates, photos, and quick communication so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and make sure your pet feels happy, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own.

Safety, trust & environment
In My Home: When your pet stays with me, they become part of the family. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where pets can relax and feel at home. My fully fenced backyard offers plenty of space for supervised outdoor play, fresh air, and potty breaks, with both grass and shaded areas to keep pets comfortable. We're also conveniently located near parks and walking trails, making it easy to provide regular exercise and enrichment. Because I work from home full-time, pets are rarely left alone and receive plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I maintain each pet's normal feeding, walking, and sleeping schedule as closely as possible to help reduce stress and make their stay feel familiar. Safety is always my top priority, and I take the time to learn each pet's needs, preferences, and any special instructions before their stay. In Your Home: When caring for your pet in their own home, my goal is to keep their routine consistent and their environment stress-free. I follow all feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and household guidelines to ensure your pet receives the same level of care they're accustomed to. I understand that trust is essential when welcoming someone into your home, so I treat every home with the utmost respect and care. I'll keep you updated with photos, messages, and regular check-ins so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, daycare, or overnight house sitting, I strive to provide dependable care and lots of love while you're away.
Information Carly W. would like to know about your pet
It’s important for me to know your pet’s daily routine, including feeding times, walk schedule, and bathroom habits. I’d also love to know about their personality—whether they’re playful, shy, energetic, or cuddly—as well as any quirks, fears, or triggers they might have (like loud noises or other animals). Please let me know about any medical needs, allergies, or medications, and don’t forget emergency contacts, including your preferred vet. Knowing their favorite toys, treats, and house rules (like if they’re allowed on furniture or in certain rooms) also helps me keep them happy and safe while you're away!
A typical day
Every pet is different, so I tailor each day to their personality, energy level, and routine. My goal is to make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm an avid walker and typically walk 5–7 miles each day, so dogs who enjoy getting out and exploring will have plenty of opportunities for exercise, fresh air, and adventure. Depending on your dog's age, energy level, and needs, our day may include neighborhood walks, visits to nearby parks, playtime in the backyard, and interactive games like fetch or tug-of-war. For senior dogs or those who prefer a slower pace, I'm equally happy taking leisurely strolls and spending quality time relaxing together. For cats, I focus on providing enrichment and companionship in a way that makes them feel comfortable and secure. We might spend time playing with wand toys, chasing interactive toys, bird-watching from a sunny window, or simply enjoying quiet cuddle time—if they're in the mood for it. Because I work from home full-time, pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, and affection throughout the day. I also enjoy incorporating simple training exercises, puzzle toys, and enrichment activities to keep pets mentally engaged and stimulated. Above all, I treat every pet like they're my own. Whether they prefer an active day filled with walks and play or a calm day with naps and cuddles, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. And of course, you'll receive regular photos and updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. 🐾💕

Reviews
Carly took wonderful care of our dog, Rosa, for five days, visiting our home twice a day to feed her and spend time with her. She sent us photos after every visit, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Rosa was happy and relaxed when we got home, and we could tell she had been very well cared for. We would definitely book Carly again and highly recommend her!
Carly was the best! I’m super picky about who I leave my animals with and she made me feel so comfortable the entire time with tons of photos & updates. She loved on my boys like they are her own and I will definitely be reaching back out the next time I travel!
Great drop-in service by Carly. I needed this just for a few weeks and I am so glad she was available! Good communication and she came by at the times is requested.
Can’t thank Carly enough for getting me out of a last minute jam. She took amazing care of my two pups and did a great job communicating updates. Will definitely use her services again!
