Experienced Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

Hey there! I'm a detailed oriented pet sitter, with lots of personal experience from being a dog and cat mom, excited to meet your pet! I've had dogs since I was young and they are part of my family as well as my newly adopted cat, but until recently I started to take care of pets from friends and neighbours and realised its something I truly enjoy, being able to spend time with animals is an amazing way to spend my time. I'm perfectly comfortable with all kinds of dogs and cats (and I can handle more than 1 at a time!) and I can offer different services and activities that will fit your pet needs, from bathing and taking the dog(s) for a walk, to cuddle and play with the cat(s) and all that comes in between. I strive to provide a great experience for both the owner and the pet. Being a pet sitter is more than just a job for me , I strive to have a great experience with each pet and owner by putting my heart into it. I work from home a few hours per day which gives me the time and space to take care of the needs of your furry friend, it also gives me the opportunity to be flexible and work with your schedule. I live in an apartment building with a recreational park for dogs in a very walkable area, in the west side of Old Town, which is close to the dog park in Monroe Avenue. My apartment it's a quiet and calm space for a scaredy cat as well as a comfortable space for a big dog. I have an extra room with bay windows and sliding doors, perfect to give some space to your pet as well as to put a crate/toys according to your specifications.

Carolina is incredible. She has been so flexible and accomplished to our schedule when we need last minute changes and takes wonderful care of our pup. She is an excellent option for anyone looking for a sitter/walker who will truly care for your pet.

Carolina was attentive, punctual, communicative, and incredibly in tune with our cats’ needs and personalities. She sent thoughtful updates with lots of photos that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our apartment was left clean, and our cats were clearly happy, comfortable, and well cared for when we returned. Carolina made our wedding weekend and honeymoon completely stress-free knowing our cats were in such excellent hands. It was obvious she genuinely cared for them like they were her own. We cannot recommend her enough and will absolutely book with her again!
