Pet care experience
I'm a fun, kind person with a meticulous eye for detail. Your pets and your home will always be kept in a safe, clean, loving environment. My friends and colleagues would report that I live with utmost integrity. My home is in Lafayette Square and I am within one block of Lafayette Park. It's a very dog friendly neighborhood. I do have a cat and a guinea pig in home, both which are well cared for and dog friendly. I also have a female roommate. My apartment, is in a four family flat on the first level and is about 1200 square feet. Currently, I am a graduate student at Wash U and am a member of a number of professional organizations including the National Association of Social Workers, Missouri Eating Disorders Association and the Missouri Eating Disorders Council. I hold a research assistantship at the Brown School of Social Work, am finishing a clinical practicum within St. Louis Psychoanalytic Institute. Looking to care for your pets over this holiday season! Unfortunately, I have 2 cats and a guinea pig of my own and am unable to accept boarders or stay overnight at your home. I am available for drop in visits for all animals and dog walking. Drop-in visits are 30 minutes and include- feed, water, play, company, and going outside and other care needs like litterbox clean-up. Walks are a separate service and last 30 minutes per walk. **Able to care for small animals too including guinea pigs, rabbits and other rodents; reptiles, fish and birds. If you have other animals in home, this can be done for a small additional fee ($5) on top of services for your cat or dog or will be charged by drop in visit fee schedules at list price. If cage cleaning is requested as an add-on, we can discuss based on the type of animal and size of the cage. :)

We hired Caroline to house sit for our dog and other pets. She came during the day to let the dogs out and spent some time with them during the day. However, I was not pleased with the overall care Caroline gave to our dogs. She decided not to sleep at the house (which I had said was fine), but she left them alone far too long during the night (14-16 hours) and failed to tell me she was not staying with them overnight.
Caroline took great care of our dog and two cats while we were out of town for the week! She sent us lots of pictures and updates throughout our trip. She also withstood the sweltering heat and took our pup to the dog park and on lots and of walks. Our house was kept super clean and our animals were calm and seemed happy upon our return. Thank you, Caroline!
Caroline did a great job. Handled the housesitting perfectly, and was good with our dog. Sent pictures on a couple of walks, and all in all made us feel like he was in very capable hands. We plan to hire Caroline again!
Caroline did a great job with my two dogs and cat. I was a bit worried at first, as my pets have a few special needs, and one needed medication, but Caroline handled everything perfectly! She put my mind at ease and sent pictures of my pets during the stay. The pets were all happy upon my return and the house looked great! I highly recommend her and would use her again for in home sitting.
