Caroline can care for
Availability
I’m currently studying in a remote setting for graduate school, so I have free time in-between classes to take care of your fur baby. I have a large dog at home so I do not offer services at my place at this time. * Please note I cannot commit to long-term recurring walks at this time, and I apologize for the inconvenience. I will update my profile should this change in the future. *

Safety, trust & environment
I am respectful of your space and pay close attention to detail, so will adhere closely to any instructions you provide. I require a meet and greet for the comfort of you the owner, your pet, and myself prior to scheduling services.
Information Caroline J. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know about your pet’s behaviors and any medical needs ahead of time. For walks, please let me know what their walking tendencies and preferences are (for example: pulls, prefers harness over collar, prefers certain routes, any fears of loud noises/certain objects, behaviors towards other dogs/animals/humans , etc). Please let me know of any dietary restrictions & whether or not you would like your dog crated after a walk, and if so, where in the home the crate is located. Please let me know how best to approach your pet upon entry to ensure a great experience for both of us, for example if your pet gets over-excited/cautious/ likes to dart outside.
A typical day
We will have lots of fun together, whether it’s playing with a favorite toy during a check-in or getting new smells in on a walk. In any case, there will be lots if pats involved!

Pet care experience
I have been a pet owner for over 20 years including rabbits, cats, dogs, reptiles, fish and frogs. I currently have a dog, an 80-pound pit mix I rescued in 2020 and treat him as if he were my son. I have experience dog sitting, boarding, and walking. This has included taking care of injured and sick animals, so I am experienced in oral medication administration and wound care. I love walking and caring for dogs especially exploring trails and giving lots of loving. Not only am I a dog person but I also love cats, & all other animals. I am excited for the opportunity to get to know your fur baby whether it be for walks, feeding, or even the occasional check-in, and of course plenty of pats! I’m attentive to your animal’s personalized needs and will care for him or her as if they were my own. I’m very good at calming down an excited animal and keeping them in my sights whenever we are out. I am detail-oriented and very communicative. * Please note I cannot commit to long-term recurring walks at this time, and I apologize for the inconvenience. I will update my profile should this change in the future. *

Reviews
Caroline was great to work with!
Caroline was great! She came for a meet and greet to meet our kitties before the drop in sessions. I forgot to provide instructions for the lockbox and she was easy to work with the clarify. She was caring and followed instructions for our kitties. Already rebooked :)
Thanks so much Caroline for taking such good care of our two dogs while we were away - you were a lifesaver! Highly recommended - will certainly use her again!
Easy to work with and our cat, Cheese, loved her!
