Soft hearted animal lover

Pet care experience

I'm a patient, detail oriented and passionate pet sitter who is ready to provide tender loving care for your dog in their own home! I love being outdoors and being around the happy and innocent faces of dogs.They never fail to put a smile on my face and I can't wait to meet your pup! I am the lucky pet parent to an energetic corgi named Juno. To help his boundless energy, we attended many training courses including CGC through DOGMASF, which focuses on positive reinforcement to help your dog learn. Going through this course taught me to be very patient and understanding. I would love to take the time to assist with your dog--I'd love to work on any training that you want to keep up with when your dog is in my care. It's my goal to be your dog's second best buddy and help keep a happy smile on their face. You can be confident leaving your dog in my care because when I'm given a task, I put all my motivation and whole heart into it. I see tasks through to the end and make sure it's completed. I don't like to leave things hanging! I love giving back to the community, helping others and building relationships! I'm so excited to meet you and your four legged friend. I am always happy to set up meet and greets so that we can all get to know each other better!

Carmen truly is the most dedicated, diligent, and trustworthy sitter. She went above and beyond as a sitter for my pet, and provided so much attention and care for him while I was away. I feel really grateful being able to have a peace of mind knowing that my pet is in safe hands with her while I'm away. Not only did she share detailed updates and pictures, but she also took the time to make sure my pet was happy by providing treats and playing and bonding with him. It's so clear that she enjoys spending time helping and caring for animals by the way she took care of my pet like it was one of her own! Thank you soo much Carmen!

Carmen was great with our kitties - who are all very different! She spent time playing with our Pancake, who loves nothing more than to catch his bird toy, and was patient with Pumpkin, who is shy and hides away from strangers, and Roo who is just down for all the pets and treats. She sent lots of photos and notes. Definitely would rebook with Carmen, she puts your mind at ease about your fur-babies while you are away! Thank you Carmen! 💗💗💗

Carmen is such a wonderful sitter! We always look forward to the detailed notes, photos, and videos from her visits and our boys love her. She does a great job keeping things tidy and clean. We really appreciate it - highly recommend working with Carmen!

Carmen did an excellent job watching my cat Remi for the week. When Remi was scared by nearby construction and the heavy rain, Carmen was very patient and gentle in showing her affection. She happily came out of hiding whenever Carmen was around.

Information Carmen L. would like to know about your pet

I'd love to know your dogs likes, favorite places and their temperament to ensure he/she has a great time (almost like nothing has changed while you're away)! I also would like to know if they have any health issues, special needs or behavioral quirks that I should be aware of so I can provide the best care possible.

A typical day

First, I'd make sure to really get to know your dog and make sure they are comfortable with me. I build trust by speaking softly, giving pet-parent-approved treats and letting the dog approach me first. Once we're comfortable together, we'll go for a walk and to the park. If his owners are ok with it maybe we can learn some tricks such as hand shaking or work on commands they know like stay and sit. Your pup will get plenty of tummy rubs when they're with me!
