Pet care experience

Pets are my passion.

I have had my own dogs for over 25 years. Growing up on a farm, we had dogs, cats, chickens, ducks and even a fighting rooster and pet peacock. I also care for family members dogs and cats on a regular basis. I'm recently retired and available to help out with your pets. I have experience with rescues as well and administration of medication for seniors. Our two previous labradors were raised from puppy stage, and our current rescues are 10 and 13 years old. I can be trusted to take care of your pet family no matter what needs they may have.

Carol is very consistent on updating me about Sugar. Highly recommended. We were satisfied on how she took care of our dog.

I can’t say enough good things about Carol. My 12-year-old husky means the world to me, and Carol cared for her exactly the way I would — spoiled and loved. She sent daily photos and updates, which really helped me relax while I was away. My girl was happy, comfortable, and clearly adored. I would trust Carol again in a heartbeat.

Doggy Day Care • May 21, 2026

From the moment we first messaged Carol, we knew our dog would be in the best of hands. Was that ever true! Carol and her husband took such great care of our dog, they provided lots of updates and took her for some great walks. The first time we picked her up, she didn't want to leave. The second day, she was pulling on her leash because she couldn't wait to get to the door to see them again. Thank you both for being so kind and for taking such good care of our favourite girl!

We have used the Rover app many times to find someone to look after our puppy. Carol & her husband went far and above our expectations. Our dog responded so well to their loving attention and welcoming home. Carol sent us pictures two and three times a day which made our time away so relaxing, not having to worry whether he was happy. We will definitely ask Carol to look after Toby when we are away again.

Safety, trust & environment

Completely fenced in yard, I have two rescues from Alabama whom myself and my husband have cared for since April 2013. They are exercised daily and have regular vet visits.

A typical day

We have a big fenced backyard and covered deck so we love running, playing and sitting outside. Our neighborhood is very safe and quiet so we walk regularly around our block which is around 1.4 km.
