Safety, trust & environment

If you chose to board your cats at my home, I have a large room where they can stay separate from my 3 cats. I think that is best, with the exception of a kitten or senior cat. Boarding of small dogs. They will be treated like one of the family! We will take walks and I’ll spend lots of quality time with them. If I care for your cat(s) in your home, we can talk about what their needs are, and what you would like me to do for them.

Information Carol P. would like to know about your pet

I have some experience with senior dogs and timid dogs. I do not have a fenced yard so the dog (s) will not stay outside. I have 3 cats, so I would prefer if your dog has been around cats or a least won’t try to torment my cats lol!

A typical day

Boarding of small dogs, we will be taking daily walks. I do not have a fence, so I will always take the dog out on a leash.

Pet care experience

Im just a huge animal lover. I grew up with dogs and cats/ kittens. I can’t imagine not having a dog or cat to love on and be a part of our family! I would really enjoy taking care of your SMALL dogs. I can board your cats here at my home. I can also come to your home to take care of your cat(s). When boarding dogs, I don’t have a fenced in yard so I would have to take your dog out on a leash. We live in a great neighborhood though, so it’s great for walking a dog. I have 2 cats, so preferably your dog should be used to them.

Wonderful experience with a genuinely caring sitter! Carol provided excellent care for my two cats while my family and I were on an extended trip out of town. The kitties received lots of attention and interaction while we were away. Carol provided pictures and updates during the cat’s stay with her. Overall, they were very happy and content in their new environment. I absolutely recommend Carol for anyone needing cat sitting services.

Carol took great care of our cat NuNu as we made a last minute travel plan for Christmas. She was very responsive and kept us updated on how our cat was doing. Our cat had such a great time that apparently NuNu was reluctant to leave when we picked her up to go home. Carol will be our go-to catsitter going forward!

Carol and her husband were wonderful. They understand cats well and knew just what to do to make Sasha comfortable. When I dropped her off, she was scared and ran underneath a couch. When I returned she was laying in a chair with Carol purring away. I will definitely be using Carol in the future.

This was my first time needing a sitter and I was pretty nervous about it. I've never had to leave my sweet boy anywhere other than the vet for a day. Carol was very accommodating. She allowed me to see where he would be, answered any questions I had and sent pictures to me to assure me he was ok. I was grateful for that. That helped ease my mind. I would definitely use her again if it should become necessary again. She's awesome!!

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.
