Information Carol M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know anything about your dog that you feel will make his or her time with me better. I will work with you to take care of your companion the way you would do so yourself.

A typical day

I love to walk at the pace the dog chooses. After all it’s his or her time out. I love to walk on the waterfront, down by the bike path and then as natural surroundings as possible. I am not embarrassed talking to dogs as part of how I interact with them.

Pet care experience

I love taking care of pets. Having just returned from Japan, I am not in a place that I can adopt a pet right now, so pet-sitting, walking and caring for your dog or cat would give me a chance to connect. I am a former computer professional and IT manager, a position I left to travel, so I am used to responsibility and work well under pressure. I am a cyclist and former spin coach so I am very physically active. I will enjoy the walks as much as your dog! I have had pets all my life. My most recent experience sitting other people’s pets is taking care of Charlie, the former Thai street cat. Charlie does not get along with everybody, but he always perks up when I arrive. I can’t wait to meet your “Charlie”.

Carol was absolutely amazing, and I couldn't have asked for a better person to look after my cat, Dobby, while my family was away for two weeks. I was honestly very anxious about leaving him home for that long. My biggest worry was that he'd be lonely or that his personality would change by the time we got back. Thanks to Carol, I came home to the exact same happy, affectionate Dobby, and I truly believe that's because of the wonderful care she gave him. Carol visited every morning, made sure he was fed, cleaned his litter box, spent time playing with him, and gave him plenty of attention and affection. She followed every instruction I left down to the smallest detail, always arrived on time, kept everything clean and tidy, and treated both my home and my cat with so much respect and care. One of the things I appreciated most was her communication. She sent daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. I was especially anxious during the first few days of my trip, but after seeing how attentive and caring she was with Dobby, I was able to relax and truly enjoy my vacation knowing he was in excellent hands. Carol is kind, reliable, friendly, and incredibly easy to work with. It's obvious that she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after, and that meant the world to me. I wouldn't hesitate to book Carol again for any future trips, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets. Thank you, Carol, for taking such wonderful care of Dobby!
