Dances With Dogs

Pet care experience

I've dealt with a wide variety of dogs throughout my life. I've cared for puppies, young dogs, and old dogs. I've owned two 6 lb. Chihuahuas, an 85 lb. German Shepard-Rottweiler-Lab mix, a 16 lb. Chihuahua-Pug, and a 45 lb. Siberian Husky. When I was in college, I volunteered at an animal shelter and cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I'm excellent at reading dog body language (this comes in handy at the dog park)! I've cooked for dogs with special dietary needs, built confidence in dogs with anxiety issues, and cared for a dog with cancer. I'm an avid researcher when it comes to dog issues. Whatever your pet needs, I'll become. I'll send you cute pics of your pup throughout the day if you'd like :) I'm fluent in ASL, know how to use a relay service, and will adjust to whatever means of communication you prefer. I’ve never met a dog I didn’t like :) Each dog is unique and special to me. I look forward to meeting you and your special, furry friend.

I was a little nervous about handing my dog off to someone both of us had never met before. Carol set my mind at ease right away. I know he had a good time with her and she took great care of him. Highly recommend Carol!

Carol took excellent care of my cat, Callie. She asked lots of questions to ensure that she understood the care instructions, took lots of adorable pictures and videos, and kept me up-to-date with Callie's care and condition throughout my vacation. Carol is very sweet and clearly cares about animals, which is a bonus! She even pointed out a health issue with my cat (that I already knew about) - she could have saved my kitty's life if it had been something I did not know about. I recommend Carol for taking care of your pets with no reservations!

Koa had a great time at Carol was great. She noticed a lesion from his harness from the day before that I hadn't noticed.

Information Carol R. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know the following about your dog: - good/not so good on the leash - any dietary or behavioral issues - housebroken - areas where they don't tolerate touch (e.g. paws, tail, etc.) - health issues - bite history - up to date on shots/ meds/ vaccines (mainly if you want your dog to socialize with mine or other dogs)

A typical day

I'll walk your dog anywhere in downtown Seattle. I'll take your dog to your preferred downtown dog park. I'll socialize your dogs with my very friendly dogs. I'll play fetch. I'll reinforce whatever tricks or trainings your pup is learning. I can make sure your pup is tired out by the time you get home :)
