Home full time. Fenced yard

Pet care experience

I just love dogs, and always have! I have more than eight years of experience working with them as a professional dog groomer at PetSmart. I originally started doing that because I just enjoyed being around pups, but now I can’t imagine not working with pups! I have my own dog as well and just love him to bits! It’s always great bringing more pups into the fold as well, we just love to have furry friends all over the place! I will be the primary caretaker, and am home full time. That means your pup will have my undivided attention during a stay! I’m a great fit for pups that enjoy having a companion around them during the day and will always make sure they are happy and healthy with me. In addition to my dog Rupert and my cat, I also live with my husband and adult son. They like to help out occasionally but mostly just provide additional love and cuddles! We always enjoy having new pups in the house, so your pooch will feel right at home with us. My neighborhood is called College Trails. There are many walking nearby and the Rollins Savannah is close by for walks and good smells as well! We love to head out and explore, so we’ll have plenty of opportunities to hit up some of the lovely trails and parks for some great off-leash time. I also have a large fenced-in yard and a comfortable home, so your pup will have plenty of space to roam around and enjoy themselves. Everyone is treated like a member of the family!

This was Jessie's first overnight stay. We felt very confident leaving her with Carol. Carol was kind enough to invite us for a meet and greet and answered all of our new puppy owner questions. Communication and pictures were great. We look forward to our next booking with Carol.

Information Carol C. would like to know about your pet

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? What’s your preferred method of communication? Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? Do you have a vet nearby that you trust? Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? What’s the best way to spoil your pup?

A typical day

During our time together, your pup will be the recipient and beneficiary of tons of cuddles and love. As a groomer, I love making sure that pups always look great, so we’ll definitely spend some time spoiling your pooch. I love to spend time with dogs, so your pup will always be engaged with me and my family, having fun and getting to know each other. There are plenty of great parks nearby, so we’ll make sure to get out for walks and exploration whenever we feel like it. I also have a large fenced-in backyard, which is perfect for quick games of fetch or rolls in the grass.
