Safety, trust & environment

I can be available to stay at your place and take care of your pet while you're away. I like to take photos and videos of your pet to make sure you know how much fun they're having.

Information Carol F. would like to know about your pet

I've taken care of many different types of dogs, from shy/anti-social corgis to somewhat aggressive German Shepherds. I only ask that if your pet has any behavioral quirks, that we do one or two meet ups so they start to associate me with being a trustworthy caregiver.

A typical day

I love finding out how your pet likes to play, whether it's fetch or tug of war. I'm always ready to provide stimulation so your pet has fun and feels taken care of.

Peace of mind for your furry friend

Pet care experience

I grew up with two cats and have taken care of friends' and neighbors' pets over the years. Since arriving to DC in 2021, I helped crate train my uncle's 3 large dogs (1 German Shepherd and 2 Labs). We also worked on reducing reactivity to joggers and other dogs on our walks. I feel comfortable using various leashes and collars. I treat every pet like they were my own, with patience and love. I also follow instructions to the letter so your pet never experiences a deviation from their schedule.

Carol was an amazing dog sitter and walker. I always worry when it comes to my reactive Shiba Inu but Carol truly took my instructions to heart and I really felt at ease. Bonus is that she took excellent update photos too!

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.
