Our Doggies Love Playmates

Pet care experience

I work from home full-time, so I'm available all day to sit with your pet. Our dogs are friendly and enjoy playing in a large, fenced backyard. My husband and I have experience being foster parents for All4Paws rescue so we are used to caring for dogs of different temperaments. We are located on the Upper Mainline in Malvern. It may sound simplistic,...but our family just loves dogs. When my husband and I were shopping for our house, we were more concerned about the size of the backyard than anything else - concerned our own dogs would have plenty of room to roam. We have been dog-sitting on Rover for 6 years,...and look forward to caring for your four-legged children too. We do require that your pets be friendly with other dogs, kids and babies. Why I love dog sitting How long have I been a dog lover? Forever! I volunteered at the SPCA during college and rescued two dogs of my own the moment I finished school. My husband and I joke that he needed to ask their permission to marry me. My husband volunteered for All4Paws rescue for many years and we fostered a number of dogs for them. My husband and I haven't had a day without dogs since we married 16 years ago. We are a dog family. Those of you who are dog-people, probably understand, from the depths of your soul, exactly what that means. We just love dogs. About my yard Our yard is 0.4 acres and the back is completely fenced in with a 6' high privacy fence. There's a small shed and a couple of bushes, I attached photos. My experience administering medication We have experience with both oral and injected meds as well as eye drops. Also, any special dietary needs can be catered to as well.

I have boarded my 2 pups with Caroline numerous times because she provides excellent care for them and she is patient with my occasional nervous-dog-mommy issues♡ She limits the size of the dogs she accepts as well as the number of dogs she will have at one time. I highly recommend her.

Catcher once again had a wonderful visit with Caroline and her family. He is well taken care of and we feel at peace while we are away knowing he is happy.

Caroline and her family are so wonderful and caring to our dog, Catcher. He is part of their family when he visits and he has had a lot of visits this past year with them. We always choose Caroline because we can feel at ease knowing how loved Catcher is.

We are so grateful to Caroline B. for taking such great care of Kenny when we vacation. Having him in a home that obviously loves and takes care of him the way we would is awesome. Kenny comes back to our home, happy, and does not have to be retrained on anything. Caroline always provides great photos while we are on our journey and is very easy to work with. She is absolutely super!

Information Caroline B. would like to know about your pet

We prefer small and medium dogs as they tend to not intimidate our little dogs. They must be ok with other dogs, kids and babies.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks We live a couple of houses down from the Raymond Nature Preserve, so wooded walks are typically on the agenda. However, if we go walking with the baby, then the stroller isn't built for dirt paths, so we usually walk to the center of Malvern around Burke Park. Your dog's sleeping arrangement We keep our own dogs in the bedroom with us. However, we're flexible. If your dog is crate trained, we do ask that you supply the crate for the visit. Time I'll spend with your dog Other than normal errands like grocery shopping, etc., we are around all day. I work from home so I'm around.
