Loving in home care

Hi my name is Carole. I had a petsitting business many years ago when I realized how difficult it was asking friends to take care of my menagerie all the time. Loved loved loved petsitting and all the interesting pets (and their owners) I met over the years. I recently retired and thought PERFECT this is what I want to do again! I currently have three dogs and a cat. But in the past I’ve had every animal you could think of…Potbelly pigs, sugar gliders, hedgehogs, Caiman gator, chameleons, goats, turkeys, ducks… I love animals! I have been involved with dog shows over the past 40 years ( do not currently show at all). Did mostly obedience and agility. And was very involved with our breed rescue group. Let your pet stay home with loving and compassionate care for your pet in the comfort of a familiar and safe environment.

Carole was real good to my dogs. I'm so glad I chose her to babysit my babies. I would recommend her over and over. Thank you, Carole

Carole is phenomenal! She goes above and beyond for you and your pets. She checked in on our 3 dogs and our cat while we were out of town. She provided us with updates during her drop in. So glad we found someone we can trust and rely on!

Carole was fantastic taking care of our two pups while my husband and I were out of town. She gave updates and made my husband and I feel like our dogs were in great hands! Will definitely use her again in the future. :)

We felt amazing knowing that our two doggos were under Carole’s care! Our dogs had a great time with her bassets, chillin in her house and in her big back yard. She also takes the time to get to know us and gave us a sweet gift to take with us on our trip. She’s definitely going to be our only dog sitter from now on; especially if you’re in keenesburg shes very convenient! Even if you’re not from keenesburg though I’d suggest making the small trip out for her care. Absolutely a wonderful experience with great communication as well. I’m looking forward to having the peace of mind on my next trip that my dogs are having a great time with Carole:)

Safety, trust & environment

For boarding in my home…I have two separate fenced yard’s. A total of about a half an acre. Very secure and landscaped. The big yard has gardens and a ditch that dogs love to sniff around. And a small yard in case your dog doesn’t want to be around my dogs 😊. I also have a doggie door that goes out to a fenced in small area. I have three medium size dogs that are extremely mellow couch potatoes and get along with all dogs! For overnight stays or drop in visits in your home… Again I will try to keep them on their regular schedule and work with you for whatever you need for your pet!

Pets

A typical day

I truly believe it’s easier on most pets to keep their schedule and routine as close to normal as possible. I will work with you and your pets to be sure they are happy and comfortable! Whether they like to be couch potatoes and lounge all day, go on long walks or just sniff around and see what they can find in my yard.

I except special requests and customize services to meet all of your needs as a pet and home owner. In the past I have done shots for diabetic cats, IV fluid drips for a senior dog. I have monitored oxygen and given antibiotic shots for my potbelly pig (that was fun!)
