"Dogs are life" - Dani Rojas/me

Pet care experience

I have had a dog since 2012 when I finished my time in an operational Navy squadron. My family has rescued several dogs (we have six now!), and I have a 9-year-old Shepherd/Husky mix. I recently began fostering to help give shelter dogs a break, which led to me adopting my second pup, a year-old boxer mix. My dog is diabetic, meaning I am comfortable and able to administer injectable medication if needed, and can handle oral medication as well. I have taken care of everything from 2-month old puppies to 13-year-old senior dogs. I love them all.

Caroline was very easy to coordinate with and was very flexible with us. She took great care of our pup and sent us wonderful updates and pictures throughout the weekend.

Caroline was a great host for our dog. She treated him like one of her own, as he was very spoiled on his stay!

Information Caroline D. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know what your dog is like, what treats they enjoy, and if they need any extra walks, meds, or cuddles. Do they get nervous around other dogs or roads?

A typical day

I will take the dogs on a couple longer walks per day, plus extra time out in the yard for the puppy. Happy to make trips to the dog park or other activities as a dog may need.
