Safety, trust & environment

🛡️ Safety and trust come first! Whether in my 🏡 home or yours, I create a calm, secure environment so pets feel comfortable right away. I only care for one family at a time 🐾—no overcrowding—so your pet gets my full attention. I follow each pet’s routine exactly ⏰, from feeding and walks to 💊 medication, and I use positive, gentle handling to build trust. My home is smoke-free 🚭, pet-friendly, and full of cozy spots for naps 💤. Outdoors, pets are always supervised 👀, whether in the yard or on walks, to keep them safe and happy. 📱 I keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so you always know your furry friend is loved, safe, and cared for. ❤️🐶

Information carolina b. would like to know about your pet

📋 The more I know, the better I can care for your pet! Before a booking, I like to know: 🐾 Personality & quirks – Are they shy, playful, or extra cuddly? 🥗 Diet & feeding schedule – Including any treats or restrictions 💊 Medical needs – Medications, special equipment, or health concerns 🚶‍♀️ Exercise preferences – Short strolls, long walks, or backyard play 🐶 Triggers or fears – Loud noises, other animals, or certain situations The more details you share, the more I can make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. 💛

A typical day

☀️ A fun-filled, tail-wagging day! We’ll start the morning with a nice 🌅 walk 7am or some backyard playtime 🐾 (behind the science museum) to get energy out. During the day, I mix in 🎾 games of fetch, brain games 🧩 for mental stimulation, and plenty of cuddle breaks 💛. Only if the dog requires fetch, meaning, a senior dog may only need one or two walks around the block with NO fetch unless owner requires it. If your pet enjoys exploring, we might go on short neighborhood adventures 🚶‍♀️ or visit a local park 🌳 (with your permission). For more relaxed pets, we’ll have cozy nap time 💤 and gentle attention throughout the day. Evenings wrap up with a calming walk 🌙 and quiet snuggles before bedtime 🐶🐱. Throughout the day, you’ll get 📸 cute photo updates so you can see how happy your furry friend is.

Carolina was very professional and helpful with my new puppy. She also sent pictures and updates on my puppy, which I appreciated very much considering this was my first time leaving my pup with a stranger. I would definitely use Carolina again and highly recommend her.
