I have always understood 🐕 and 🐈

Pet care experience

I've been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 17, and have had dogs my entire life. I’ve also had guinea pigs, turtles, and fish. I don’t mind exotic animals except for 1, snakes. As I said, I have been taking care of animals from a young age, and as long as I am available, neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me and trust me to walk, feed, and take care of their fur babies while they are at work, out of town, or on last-minute plans, either at my house or at their home, and this is because I always listen to the animal/s body language. And this allows me to get to know them better. Also, I moved to the Fort Cavazos area less than a year ago and would love to explore nearby areas with your fur baby, such as parks and trails, or just around the block. And lastly, I am a military spouse and have access to Fort Cavazos.

Carol was fantastic with our 3 cats while we were on vacation. She sent lots of updates and pictures and loved on them just like we do. From the initial meeting with Carol we knew she was a genuine animal lover and that is what’s most important to us. We will definitely call her again for future our pet sitting needs.

I cannot brag enough about Carol. She did an amazing job watching my cat while I was away for 2+ weeks. Carol did drop-ins and made sure my kitty was well taken care of. She always updated when she was on the way, and followed up with photos and a detailed description each visit. She also informed me of any concerns and always kept me in the loop. I would highly recommend Carol to take care of your fur babies and I will definitely be requesting her services again!

I will do pretty much whatever pup or kitty want. If it's either play ball, frisbee, or just run around the backyard with them or if he or she wants to sit down and either do nothing or do belly rubs; or all, I just like whatever the puppy/ kitty likes. As I said before, I listen to their body language. Their happiness, and yours, is my number 1 priority.

Information Carol V. G. would like to know about your pet

I would appreciate it if you could let me know if they need medication, their likes, and dislikes, and if your fur baby has any special needs; any information you think is essential, no matter how small, will be a great help. I can administer medication, including injections. All you have to do is explain to me the exact way you do it, so I can give the pup or kitty the comfort that I can administer their medication as their owners administer it. As I said, I will try my best for the animal to feel safe and comfortable with me.

A good peace of mind 😊 Aside from me letting them know i have arrived, by say Hi, because to me is very important they know I have arrived. I will always read their body language, and I will give them as much attention or as much space as they want; I do not force any attention on them because if we humans want our own space, why can't animals. Right? :)
