Pet care experience
If you are looking for an experienced friend for your pet, I'm your girl. I grew up with all sorts of animals; dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rats... and currently own two cats and two large dogs. I have sat cats and dogs for over 5 years and I have been walking dogs for about 4. I worked in an animal welfare organization for 3 years and currently work at a vet hospital. Through the years I have been trained to safely handle all sort of behaviors in both cats and dogs. I am able to read body language and change the environment if needed to make your furry one feel comfortable. I can help you train your pup with basic commands or continue whatever training you are working on. I am a strong believer of positive reinforcement methods, so your pet will enjoy plenty of yummy treats and encouraging talks.
Reviews
Carmen was amazing in helping us out in a pinch. She was able to swing by early, confirm ability to enter the apartment, was experienced with the litter genie and pine litter systems AND was able to somehow magician our perpetually-terrified - of-strangers cat out from under the bed during her visit, as evidenced by cute photos. So, she's incredible, reliable and cats love her ?.
Carmen was absolutely wonderful throughout the entire experience! We feel so lucky to have had Carmen care for our senior cat, who had to change food, didn’t feel well, and was more high maintenance than usual during our time using Rover. Carmen was an absolute professional and knew exactly how to care for Frankie, and put us at ease everyday with photos and frequent communication. Highly recommend!!
Highly recommend Carmen. She came and walked my puppy for more than the time paid for and got Ollie without meeting me. She sent lots of photos and made sure Ollie had a fun play date in the park. Will definitely use again for my golden doodle.
Carmen is very loving and caring, and she’s a real animal lover. She works full-time with animals and loves being around them. She knows what she’s doing, she’s responsible and attentive to my dog’s needs. Carmen shows up when she says she’s going to and is attentive to other instruction such as feeding. She’s also had my dog for long periods of time and he always comes back happy!! I highly recommend Carmen!
