Information Carmen R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your Pet is not kid-friendly. I do not take dogs that are not for the safety of my child. I have never had any pet show signs of aggression or fear. Also medicine (pills) or liquid that has to be given and the correct way the animal prefers. I have experience with senior cats/dogs Puppies as well!

A typical day

Typically my son and I love to play with cats and dogs, laser, catnip, mouse toys. For dogs my son likes to play fetch with them and if allowed to, belly scratches!

Carmen was SO incredible. It was our first time leaving our kitty alone and Carmen made us feel so so good about it all. When we got home, we could tell how well taken care of she was and it felt like she made new friends in Carmen and her son. Every visit, she shared photos, notes, and I could tell how much she truly cared. Will definitely rebook with Carmen and you should too! She’s amazing!

Carmen gave Remy and Linguini lots of love and attention while I was out of town, as well as being sure they had clean water and food always.

My cat Ash can be very skittish, but Carmen did great with him!
