I recently retired from my day job but stay busy with a part-time job, yoga and as a radio host! Day assignments and early evenings are no problem. I may request my daughter's help with pet sitting from time to time. I will include her in the meet and greet if I think she may be helping. Her job is flexible and is a great back up for me.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is very important to me. Walks always require a leash and prefer no shock collars. Your safety requests will always be honored. I have a fenced yard but do hope to be able to care for your pet at your home. I do have the space to crate at our home if needed.

Information Carol D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about their unique preferences, favorite activities, how well they get along with other animals, or any other information that can make our time together stress-free and fun.

A typical day

Lots of hugs (if they allow) and attention. Let me know what fun activities they like for example ball chasing, playing with cat toys, go to dog parks and I will definitely incorporate into my visit.

Pet care experience

My daughter and I had a business called Mother and Daughter Pet Sitting throughout her high school years. She is grown now but many of the clients have stuck with me over 10 years. Don't let my age fool you, I'm up for a good walk with a wagging tail friend.

Carol was very attentive and took great care of my fur babies. She kept me updated with pics which I greatly appreciated.

Carol cares about our dog's health. She is willing to do more to ensure the well-being of our dog, e.g., taking prescription from the vet or taking our dog to the vet. We appreciate her help during our travel.

Carol was wonderful! Very understanding with my kitties, and went out of her way to make sure they were ok!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
