Pet care experience

WFH, excellent at writing updates!

I've cared for and lived with dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. I currently own a 5 y/o small dog, Olive, who I regularly go on hikes and do agility training with. I'm highly organized, patient, and detailed-oriented. For every walk and visit, I always take thorough, precise notes to ensure the pups are comfortable, safe, and having an enjoyable time with me. While I love spoiling other people's dogs, I always ask for explicit permission before introducing new treats, routes, or activities. I'm particularly experienced with shy, anxious, and rescue dogs. Because I'm naturally quiet and calm, sensitive dogs tend to feel safe and warm up to me quickly.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I focus on creating a safe, structured, and emotionally consistent space to build trust and respect with the pets I care for. To me, it's important to treat other people's pet the way I want my pet to be treated, and to recognize that each pet is a unique individual. Generally, I maintain your exact routine for feeding, playtime, and walks. That said, every pet has distinct needs. Beyond just strictly sticking to plans, I always monitor their body language and behaviors to make sure they are comfortable, communicating with you to make adjustments along the way.

Drop-In Visits • Dec 26, 2021

So happy I booked Carmen for drop-in visits for my kitten!! She was very communicative, punctual, descriptive, and understanding when caring my pet. Even checked in to tell me about my kitty’s soft stools to ask if they were normal or not, which I really appreciated. Loved the pics & written description she wrote per check in. Will def book her again if I need a sitter :)
