Fun, Loving, Active Sitter!

Pet care experience

I walk, jog, or trek outside nearly everyday and love to take dogs with me! There are green spaces nearby as well for off the leash romping. I have had dogs all my life, but none living here at the moment. I believe in keeping pets at their best health and happiness levels. They will have attention whenever they want it and there is a fenced back yard. They can optionally go places with me also for fun outings. Really it is more like a fun vacation for them! Just living life and the "bare necessities". I also have experience dog training. I work at home and there is always someone here, so the dogs will almost never be alone. You want to know your family pet can have a safe, reliable stay and enjoy it! They're part of the family when they're here, like a private doggy B&B. Trips to friend's and family's property to play with other dogs, going to the park, and all that good stuff is available. It's better than a kennel, it's a personal doggy holiday while you are on yours! In your home: I am very neat and leave everything as it was before I arrived. I respect the routines of everyone's home. Different packages available from dog visits and walks to extended overnights.

My dog had the best time! He can't wait to go back! I wasn't worried the whole time, I knew my boy was being well taken care of. The level of communication during the stay was terrific!

Carmelo did an excellent job watching our two cats for a week. He came by daily and kept us up to date sending frequent messages and pictures letting us know everything was going well. Highly recommend!!

Carmelo made me feel great about leaving my dog for the first time. He was very flexible with drop off/pick up and gave lots of updates and pictures. So happy with my experience.

I’ve never experienced a dog sitter put in so much effort and care as Carmelo! he went above and beyond to ensure my dog was well taken care of and that I felt good about leaving my dog with him. I received photos & updates daily! I could tell by the photos, my dog had been tired out from long walks and lots of attention. Carmelo is by FAR the best dog sitter in the area. I HIGHLY recommend him - wish I could rate his service higher!

Information Carmelo S. would like to know about your pet

First, what makes your dog the happiest and what kind of personality does he/she have? I would like to know if the dog is accustomed to a kennel/den/crate, and if there is one available or not for comforts of home. I would also like to know what their usual routine is in terms of exercise. Does the dog do well off leash and like to play fetch or any park sports? That's kind of the basic info, anything else I should know would be great to bring up in a meet and greet. Most important is just connecting with the dog on the first visit, it's just as much benefit for them as it is for us. ***Again, while I would love to help care for your canine family I am unable to provide accommodations for any kind of Pit Bull or Rottweiler. Thank you for your understanding.***

A typical day

Walks, Jogging, Running, and playing in the Park or Backyard. Sometimes dogs really like watching me work on music too! I think they know more about it than they let on :) Lazy afternoon sun naps after a round of fetch optional. *** While I would love to help take care of your canine family I am unable to provide accommodations for any kind of Pit Bull or Rottweiler.
