Pet care experience
I am a huge dog lover! I grew up with a Border Collie and a mini Aussie so I have experience with high-energy dogs. I am available full-time, and will walk and play with your dogs for however long they need. I am super friendly and great with dogs. I have a spacious house with a fenced big backyard and no cats or other pets besides my mini Aussie. I have experience taking care of other dogs besides my own as well. I frequently dog sit for an epileptic older Golden Retriever so I can handle some versatility. Dogs are allowed to roam around freely in my house, or the yard and can enjoy the company of my dog as well. If needed, dogs can be separated as well.

This was the first time for our 10 month old puppy, who is skittish in new environment, to stay away from us, and I must say it went well considering the first experience for both dog and us. Caroline was excellent with communication, and she was very flexible to meet beforehand so that my dog would be a bit comfortable with them. I took advantage of her 30 min drop-in service to take a walk together with her and one of her 2 Aussie, Taji, who is about the same age as my dog. Taji and my dog got along well, and that helped a lot for my skittish dog to be comfortable. I sensed Caroline has a calm assertive energy and I could trust her with my dog. Too bad she's available only for the summer..
Carolyn took care of my dogs in my home for a week. When I returned my dogs and my home were in very good condition. Sometimes when I board my dogs or leave them with someone, I come back and can tell they have been stressed. This time I came back to find them content and calm. My dogs have given Carolyn their best recommendation!
Caroline is a FANTASTIC dog sitter and dog owner! She has a life's worth of experience walking and caring for dogs. It is very clear how much she loves spending time with them and how much dogs love spending time with her! I have seen her play, feed, walk and care for not only her own dogs, but others' too! I HIGHLY recommend Caroline to be your trusted dog sitter.
Caroline is great with dogs. She is familiar with proper pet safety techniques, which made me feel good about leaving my 2 dogs in her care. A pet visit consisted of a trip to Point Isabel (a huge dog park in Pt. Richmond) where the dogs could run and play off leash, reinforcing training commands for my younger dog, and feeding them in accordance to the schedule I gave her. Caroline is very low-key, but responsible. I would highly recommend her as a dog walker/sitter.
