Pet care experience
Vet Tech Trainer Animal Lover
Hi, I started pet sitting when I was earning my BS in Animal Science from LSU. Over the years I’ve worked as a vet tech and at medical/ veterinary schools/ teaching hospitals. I’ve been a basic skills/ obedience trainer and watched clients’ pets at their homes or brought them into mine for 35 yrs. I live in a quiet neighborhood with my 1 year old Lab and his 8 year old All American cat. We love other animals and are very understanding of friends’ individual personalities. We’d love to add your family to ours. I only host one client family's request at a time. Your furry kids will only play with my dog and cat. Caution: let us know if your pets are on a diet because we love treats to bond and offer positive reinforcement. Hope to hear from you soon.

My Scout had a great stay with Carmen and found a new doggie friend in Tyr. She played and was very comfortable and happy. We will definitely be back next time I need a sitter. Carmen knows dogs and was very reliable and flexible.
Carmen was great and every way. I highly recommend Carmen for any dog watching needs.
Carmen was amazing with our dogs and also very responsive and very accomodating. We truly appreciate her time and love to our pups! Thank you so much Carmen you are amazing!

Safety, trust & environment
Unfortunately, I’ve seen accidents happen. So I know they can. I treat everyone else’s loved pet as I would a child. It’s a big responsibility that I take very seriously.

A typical day
We go on nature walks and to the park. Sometimes just sitting on the couch is fun. I believe each animal is an individual so activities vary.
