Carol is incredibly kind and thoughtful and was wonderful with our senior pup (who takes medication daily) and two guinea pigs. Our dog can be nervous around new people but she warmed up quickly to Carol. It's always tough to leave our pets behind when traveling but we trusted Carol to care for them and look forward to using her services again in the future!

Carol was great! I highly recommend her. It was the first time leaving our dog alone at home and everything went smooth and great. We loved all the updates after each visit and our dog -Clover- loved Carol.

Carol is a wonderful cat sitter! She visited my kitty twice daily, took care of all the essentials (food, water, litter box and she brushed, played and petted him. She sent daily photos and an update on his mood. I am very happy with the care she provided. I highly recommend her services! FIVE STARS

Carol is wonderful - she’s a great communicator and exactly the kind of person whom one feels comfortable leaving their pet with. We highly recommend her, as does our cat!
