25 Years Experience Caring for Pets

Pet care experience

If you are like me and want the very best for your pet, please consider allowing me to come to your home while on vacation or at work. I would love to give my undivided attention to your furry friend if you need to be away. Let me rid your dog of all that energy by taking them for a walk or playing with their toys. Or I can simply be a companion to them. There are no extra vaccinations required with in-home care unlike many veternarians & boarding facilities. And it is the most comfortable for your animal! The first step is scheduling a "meet & greet" in your home so you can meet me, and I can meet your pet(s). I have a short questionnaire for clients to fill out that allows me to get to know their pet better. I also have a copy of my background check available for viewing upon request. I have personally trained and cared for 8 dogs over 25 years. Owning dogs, each with their unique personalities & some with special needs, has given me experience that will help care for your pet! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover all of my life! For the past 25 years, I have had a multiple dog household. I have had personal experience owning shetland sheepdogs & labrador retrievers, but I love dogs of all shapes and sizes. I am passionate about promoting the idea of rescuing animals from shelters! My experience administering medication I have had experience giving oral medication.

Carole was so wonderful with Bear, I can honestly say he was truly on a vacation with her! She's very caring and knowledgeable, and even gave me a heads up as to why he wasn't eating when we left! Truly a dog lover and a very kind lady!

Carole took loving care of our two dogs while we were away. It is obvious that she really cares and loves animals. She was super communicative, responsible, and professional. I even got pictures! We will certainly be using her again.

Carole took the time to learn about Peaches before her stay. Our elderly dog appeared happy and content from the pictures Carole shared with us. She left detailed daily reports. I highly recommend Carole as a trustworthy, caring dog sitter. She went above and beyond in the care of Peaches in our home!
