All pets- I'll win their <3 & Urs!

Pet care experience

I am experienced in dog-sitting, training and handling. Most dogs love me! I have a way with even the most stubborn of pets. I am flexible when it comes to your home traditions, my favorite family I sit for always leaves me a page long instruction manual :) Whatever your pets needs, I can meet them and you won't come home disappointed. I have dog/pet/house sat for as little as 2 or 3 days up to a whole month. I will water plants, check mail and play with most any type of animal! I have a moderately sized grassy yard and I am home during the day almost every day. It's like a little stay-cation for your pup's! Can't wait to meet you and them!

Super sweet lady. Took Tripp on short notice when we got thrown a curve ball. Her two dogs played hard and wore Tripp out !

Carmen is the best!! She took care of our dog and three cats while we were gone. Our dog can be a little challenging, but Carmen won him over quickly! She gave him his medication and gave him lots of love and attention. She sent pictures daily and was great with communication. I would highly recommend her and I’m sure our dog can’t wait for us to leave again!! Thank you, Carmen!!!!!!

Information Carmen S. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences, I can handle them all and love them all the same. Would like to know the dogs quirks and "hot spots" or things they don't like (like if they don't like their ears touched). Also how feeding normally goes, if they are food aggressive I need to know, and what their couch/bed privileges are.

A typical day

Parks, dog parks (if they like other dogs and you will allow it), car rides (if they enjoy them), play time inside or outside. I enjoy fresh air and wouldn't mind spending some time on a patio keeping them company. Treats for tricks and you might even come home to a even more well behaved pup!
