Pet care experience

Hi! I’d love to look after your pet

I’ve had dogs for my entire life and I love to take care of them. I have two 15 year old chihuahuas who I love to death. I also have experience caring for cats too I work from home with my adult daughter who loves dogs as well. We can always take care of pets since we don’t need to leave the house. We have a big fenced yard for your dogs to play in. We have two mellow senior dogs who get along with everyone. We can also crate your dog or separate them into another room if you need.

We had a wonderful experience with Carmen! Our senior dog stayed with her for 18 days, and we felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. She was attentive, caring, and kept us updated throughout the stay with photos and messages, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Toby was well cared for and treated like part of the family. We truly appreciate the time and love they gave him and would happily have him stay with them again. Highly recommend!

I highly recommend Carmen. When I pick up my fur babies they are happy and energetic. When we arrived, they ran into her house. That tells me they don’t mind being there. We have been places where they let me know they do not want to be there. I will continue to use Carmen!

I was nervous to use rover for the first time, but Carmen was so great. She took such good care of my Pablo and I couldn’t recommend her more!

Barkley loves going to Ms. Carmen’s. He is always excited to go and he usually doesn’t do well away from us. We have booked several times for the ease, convenience and comfort. She is officially our go-to sitter. As long as she’s available, this is who we’ll choose every time.
