I love high-energy dogs!
Pet care experience
I'm a 23 year old college student and total dog-lover! I grew up on a farm in rural Maine, taking care of farm animals and our multiple herding dogs. I'm accustomed to walking our Australian cattle dogs 3+ miles, daily. I have experience farm-sitting and dog-sitting, and have no problem preparing complex meals or administering medication. I’m currently located in-town in Belfast, ME. Although I am unable to host dogs in my residence, I am happy to travel to your home to provide walks/exercise, check-ins, and house/dog-sitting. My #1 priority is your dog's safety. Dogs are a part of the family, and should be treated and protected as such. Whatever the task, I'll complete it conscientiously and safely, while making sure your dog has a blast!
Reviews
Carolin was a great caregiver to my 2 dogs. Lady is a dog that requires a lot of work, and she did everything we asked for our high-maintenance girl. She also took good care of our senior boy, Niko. She gave them exercise and love, and I didn't worry about them at all while I was away for the weekend.
We cannot say enough good things about Carolin! When she arrived, our one-year-old corgi, Marz, ran right to her and sat by her side. She took Marz on a 2-mile walk through Rock Meadow conservation area in Belmont and sent pictures throughout the day. Marz can be a handful and has endless energy but Carolin was able to tire him out :) We highly recommend Carolin, and hope she can dogsit Marz again soon!
Did an awesome job!
Carolin has always lived with animals including the usual cats and dogs but has also spent a lot of time living on a farm with horses, sheep, chickens and ducks. She has frequent contact with doctors and veterinarians learning important aspects of animal care. She has a great love for animals and is calm, reassuring and consistent when handling animals. Additionally, her mother is a coordinator at a local animal shelter helping to train shelter dogs as well as training her own dogs in obedience and sheep herding. All these resources have given Carolin an excellent foundation for animal handling skills.

Information Carolin H. would like to know about your pet
I'll need to know size, sex, allergies, preferred leading equipment, and any dog/child/gender aggressive tendencies.
A typical day
Happy to take your dog on a walk through the neighborhood, or provide transportation to a local park/hiking area. If your dog is high-energy, I'd be happy to take it for a run. I'll also always come equipped with a Chuck-it and tennis balls.
