Large fenced in yard and love dogs!

Pet care experience

I am a stay at home mom looking to earn extra money now that my kids are older. I love to be with animals, and particularly dogs. I fostered a beagle mix for a shelter and really enjoyed it - even though he was a difficult dog. I've been working for Rover for 3 years now and love it! I go out of my way to care for any dog I am watching depending on their needs and temperament. I can take dogs to dog parks, or walks through the woods depending on their likes. Our house has 2 cats who are friendly but will usually keep their distance with visiting dogs. I have two older sons ages. I'm also available for cat sitting.

Carol took such great care of our Jerry! She kept us updated on his activities and shared pictures every day. Jerry was a very happy and healthy boy when we returned home. We can’t thank Carol enough!

Carol was amazing with Brady! She sent photos which always made me happy! She asked me about his allergies when they started acting up. I was able to vacation at ease. Brady loved being there! Thank you, Carol!

Information Carol H. would like to know about your pet

I don't have breed preferences but the dog should be ok with my current daycare dog/s. I'm happy to try to accommodate my services based on your dog's needs. I currently only take 1 dog overnight for boarding - unless its two dogs from the same family. If a dog is not good with other dogs, or is not reliably house trained - I do have a small room that can accommodate them but please be honest w me if you think they may be prone to accidents.

A typical day

I have taken dogs to Breakheart Reservation, Harold Parker forest, and Horn Pond for walks. I know the local dog parks and can take a dog to these if that is what your dog likes. If a dog doesn't like to be alone I will take him with me in the car if I need to go out. I try to be sensitive to your dog's needs.
