Responsible 30-year-old dog-lover
Pet care experience
I am a 30-year-old living in the South End with flexible work hours (I work from home, and I'm a writer so hours are flexible), so I can take your dog for a walk whenever you need me to. I am responsible, kind, and athletic, and would love taking your dog on a walk through Boston Common, a dog park, or another location you'd prefer. Lastly, I am a previous pet owner myself -- growing up I had an incredibly energetic golden retriever dog, as well as a cat who lived 15 years. I also used to volunteer at the Ipswich Animal Shelter because I love all animals! I work a 9-to-5 job from home, but my role as a writer means I have limited meetings — so I have a lot of flexibility to take your pup for walks and play with him or her throughout the day. I follow the owner’s advice when it comes to how to make the animal feel safe and comfortable in my home. I ensure I am always aware of where the pup or cat is and watch them so they don’t get themselves into harm’s way, and I follow the animal’s lead when it comes to whether they want to be picked up or pet or whether they want space to explore a bit.
Reviews
Caroline was awesome. I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her. She sent me just the right amount of updates and pictures. I’m so happy I found Caroline and will definitely book her again!
Wonderful care from Caroline for our little fur baby. She sent regular photos and updates and you could see Charley was being cared for and loved. Thank you so much!
Caroline was great with my pup! Thank you!
So happy that we chose Caroline to look after our doggo Charley. She sent regular updates and followed all our instructions perfectly. Charley loved Caroline and it’s obvious she is a natural with animals. Would definitely recommend and we’ve already asked her if she can could back and care for Charley on another occasion. Thank you so much Caroline!

Safety, trust & environment
We have a safe apartment in the south end, and I always ensure anything potentially dangerous is off the floor before a pup comes over. I also make sure they have their own space in my apartment on a dog bed or blanket with toys so they feel safe and welcomed.
Home
Information Caroline F. would like to know about your pet
I’d love to know your dogs preferences when it comes to where he or she likes to play; if they’re comfortable being approached on the sidewalk by other dogs; and if they like long or short walks. Additionally it’s helpful to know if a dog likes to be picked up and pet or left alone, and what I can do to make him or her as happy and calm as possible!
A typical day
I'd love to take your dog to Boston Common, the beach in Southie, or a long walk along the Esplanade. However, this is your pet -- so if you have a nice spot you prefer taking him/her, I will be happy to do the same to give your pet a sense of consistency and comfort.
