Safety, trust & environment

I am happy to adhere to whatever systems are in place for your pet at your home. I don’t like to leave dogs alone or crates all day, so try to spend as much time at home with your furry friend as possible when housesitting.

Information Caroline F. would like to know about your pet

Name, size, training level, any quirks, favorite toys and games. If your dog is nervous or has difficulty on a leash or around other dogs, that is also good for me to know.

A typical day

I love to stimulate the dogs I watch physically and mentally. We play, run, get lots of pets and cuddles if appropriate, and they get lots of attention. I like to run in Sunset Park and Crown Hill Park as they’re close to my home, but I’m general I love to get outside with the dogs I watch as much as possible.

Pet care experience

Originally from Ithaca, NY, I have grown up with dogs, cats, and horses, of all shapes and sizes, from beagles to Great Danes and St. Bernards. I have ample free time to walk, play, and cuddle dogs and provide you with some help. I have my own vehicle, and am comfortable with having animals in my backseat.

Caroline was so great with Toby! We planned a last minute trip out of town and she stayed with him overnight. Very communicative and thoughtful in making sure Toby had everything he needs.

Caroline was awesome with our dog! She was communicative, took Toby on runs with her (which he loved), and left our place super clean. Thanks for taking care of Toby, Caroline!

Caroline is fantastic! I highly recommend her for caring for your pets. She responded quickly and provided updates! She's very friendly and respectful and my pets enjoyed her company. I would use her services again.
