Availability

I am reliable, trustworthy and punctual! As a work-at-home mom to three amazing kids, I know how to properly organize my schedule and always show up on time. During the school year my kids will all be in school at certain hours of the day so this leaves me with extra time on my hands each week—I love to serve our community by assisting our neighbors with their pet needs. If your pup enjoys ball chasing, frisbee tossing, and stick throwing, we will have so much fun! If your kitty enjoys string toys, ear scratches and treats, they’ll be a great new friend :)

Safety, trust & environment

I have many friends and family who have entrusted me with checking in on their pets or taking them for walks when away from home. I respect the fact that you are entrusting me to briefly be in your home to care for your pets and that agreement in trust will be top priority!

Information Carol A. would like to know about your pet

It would be helpful for me to know how your dog responds to other animals or people while on our walks. Do they get anxious when seeing or smelling other animals? Will they attempt to chase squirrels or cats or cars? Perhaps they like a long leash to let them explore in a field? Knowing this information will ensure both your pet and myself are safe and prepared for anything together!

A typical day

I’d love to hear from you about your pets’ favorite games and activities! Some pups prefer lazy, relaxed walks to smell ALL the smells and others like fast-paced walks with lots of catch activities. I know lots of great parks in the area and I’m happy to cater to your pups preferences and your requests!

⭐️Furry friends are family⭐️

Pet care experience

I truly believe furry friends are family members! From growing up with 8 family pets in my childhood home, to adopting and training my own family dog as an adult, I’ve learned animals enhance our lives! They deserve just as much love, attention, and respect as our human family members. I aim to provide your furry friend with that same level of care and adoration!

Carol was incredible with our 2 kitties. We had just moved to the area and were worried about them being alone. She went above and beyond and helped me feel so much better. I highly recommend her.

Thanks for being awesome with the kitties and chickens. It makes leaving them behind easier when we know they are being well looked after!!

Carol takes such good care of our cat Taco. He can be very upset when we leave, but anytime Carol takes care of him he is in good spirits when we get back.
