Amazing house sitter, let’s walk!

Pet care experience

Hello! Currently taking new clients Greater Boston 2023/2024 I currently offer house sitting in these towns ONLY!!! (NEWTON, BROOKLINE, WESTON, WELLESLEY, WATERTOWN, WALTHAM, BRIGHTON ). Please take note of these towns when sending me a new request. I have most experience house sitting dogs in owners homes, walks and drop in or at my home and even short trips to my lake home for a swim and run around! I have experience with rescue dogs, older dogs and puppies who may have special needs and medical requirements. A little about my own self is that I am a classical Double Bass player who now teaches in person and on Zoom from home. Lots of my students have dogs that like to listen in on our lessons weekly. All in all I am a total dog person with safety as my top priority, great references and experience with all different types of dogs.

Caroline was very professional and took good care of our elderly baby.

This was our first try with Caroline for our old shepherd. Caroline kept us informed and left the house in great shape. Our old shepherd did well with her and we will most certainly ask Caroline to house/dog sit in the future.

Caroline took care of our 2 dogs while we were out of town. She was very professional, took the time to meet our dogs, got to know their routine and personal needs. We received daily updates and were really happy with the service provided. It’s the first time we had a caregiver stay in our home and we would definitely work with Caroline again!

Caroline was amazing! Took the time before housesitting for an in depth phone call and then a meet and greet with Charley to go over all details. Was wonderful with our dog, taking her on daily hikes and adventures and sending lots of communication and photos. Treated our home like her own, even watering our plants while we were away! Definitely recommend!!

Safety, trust & environment

Saftey is main priority when sitting your pet in your home. I would love to know your at home and walking procedure that you use in your daily life, so everyone is comfortable and confident in the plan!

Information Caroline D. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know where your dog feels the most comfortable, if they have any favorite toys and how he gets along with other dogs/people in their regular life. I love all dogs, all breeds all shapes and sizes. I have the most experience with pugs in general but I care for all breeds

A typical day

NI love long walks around the neighborhood, and surrounding dog friendly places! There are a few secret places in the greater Boston area I like to adventure to once trust has been established with your dog. While in my care, your dog will be safe and receive a daily life as close to their regular schedule as possible. I generally do three long walks a day, lots of love and hang time as well as physical activity.
