Availability

I have been a dog mom since I can remember, so taking care of our little buddies is second nature. I am used to waking up early to take them for a quick potty break or a walk depending on weather, and continue that throughout the day. A tired pup is a happy pup!

Information Carolina M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your buddy has any special diets, schedules or needs. I am happy to accomodate as much as possible! Do they have any aggression towards foods or toys? My dog Olivia lives with me every other week and is great with dogs but I can make sure to provide space for your dog if they have any issues with sharing :)

A typical day

I love playing fetch with dogs! I also have all kinds of puzzles and toys for them since my own Olivia loves them! I live a few blocks away from two lakes in a very walkable area so that is always part of the daily activities. Does your dog like photos? Cus they'll get many taken! Later in the day, I love to spend time cuddled up on the couch!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Caro and I looooove dogs. I have a lot of experience taking care of dogs of all sizes, and have been a very hands-on pet owner since I was very young. I have experience with senior dogs and dogs that struggle with some health issues that require special feeding schedules and administrating all kinds of medications. To me, dogs are family members, and I love cuddling up with mine on the couch or snuggling up in bed. Your dog can join us! The more the merrier! I currently have little Miss Olivia the 2 year old miniature schnauzer. She lives with me every other week as I share her with my ex. She is the sweetest, most affectionate, but also craziest girl you will ever meet. She is super social, and is part of a few structure play and obedience groups since she was a puppy, so she is great with other dogs. Because of this arrangement, I figured this would be a great time to start dog sitting again! I work a full time job that only requires me to be in the office once or twice a week for a few hours and all weekends off, so I have lots of home time to take care of Olivia or any of her friends. We live at an ground floor level apartment, blocks away from two lakes and can enjoy lots of outdoor walking time! I also have a patio and small unfenced yard that can definitely be used for quick potty breaks or outdoor time.

Carolina is a loving and attentive host to little Indi. It’s like leaving him with a trusted family member.

Carolina is the best. When I’m about to drop Indi off he gets confused — he wants to cling to me, but he also knows he loves his time with Carolina and Olivia.
