Pet care experience

Here for the walks, sits, & cuddles

Hi! 👋🏽 I had a small family dog (about 20 lbs) who loved long walks, chasing birds, and playing at the park or beach. He's the reason I fell in love with dogs, and since then, I've had the joy of spending time with dogs of all sizes. Whether your dog needs a quick drop-in, a feeding, or a good walk around the neighborhood, I'm happy to help. I'll always keep their safety and comfort first, and I'm big on communication — I try to send several photos and updates so you're never left wondering how they're doing.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in your home, I'll follow your instructions closely — meals and any medications are given as directed. I make sure your pet gets daily walks and play that match their energy level, whether that's a long stroll or something more low-key. For your home, I'll keep things tidy and leave the space as I found it while you're away. Throughout the stay, I send daily photo and video updates so you always know your pet is happy and in good hands.

Carmela was amazing with Pennie! She was super sweet, responsive, and arrived right on time for pickup. She sent lots of photos and updates throughout the visit, which I really appreciated. Communication was great and she was super attentive. 10/10

Carmela has walked my dog, Pickles, dozens of times and has boarded him for multiple nights. Carmela's genuine love for dogs shines through in her kindness and attentiveness, and Pickles is always so excited to see her. She is punctual and a great communicator, always updating me with messages and pictures of Pickles. Carmela is also flexible, and responds very quickly to requests and messages. I fully trust Carmela to care for Pickles and highly recommend her to anyone needing care for their dog.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, cues, triggers (cyclists/skateboarders/fireworks), or behaviors I should be aware of. My family dog had his own quirks, so I know how to read a dog's mood and steer clear of situations that might make them uncomfortable.
