Experience & Trust Walks & Drop-ins

Pet care experience

**Currently I am available for dog walking and drop-in visits. Discounts available, see below for details. Dog Walking: I LOVE walking! It's my favorite form of exercise and the only thing that makes me happier than being outside is having a furry friend to keep company. I will pick up your pup and follow all instructions closely. I am familiar with leashes, collars, and harnesses. I will make sure your pup has a great walk and gets plenty of time to sniff his favorite spots. When the walk is completed, we will return to your house and I will ensure your fur baby has treats, water or whatever you have instructed before being left. I've made friends with some of the most shy dogs. If we have more time left over I'm happy to sit and visit with your pup and just keep him company. If your dog is hesitant with new people, I will gently help her learn to trust me. I will also ensure your home is locked and secure as I leave. Leaving your pup and home safe is my top priority. Drop-in Visits: I am available for multiple times per day drop-in visits. This has proved to be a great alternative to boarding your pet. A lot of my clients find this less stressful for their pets than any traditional boarding facility. I try to talk the entire time I'm in the house and sometimes this means singing so tell your pets to get ready for that! For cats, I'll scoop litter boxes and also provide some petting therapy to let them know they aren't alone for long. I always update my furry friends on when their owners will be returning. And I always update my clients on how their pets are doing after each visit. A little about me: I am a mom in Ridgefield and I have a 2 year old dog. I've lived in Ridgefield for almost a decade. I have had pets my entire life and I have been pet sitting professionally since 2015. I really love the quirky side of animals. Please specify a 1-2 hour time frame that works best for you. Available multiple times a day. Would prefer to meet you and your pets in advance but can also accommodate if you are unable and would prefer to just leave written instructions.! I will be happy to walk around your yard, neighborhood, street. I will always leash your dog and find your cats if they are hiding. I walk rain or shine if requested. Nothing is worse then leaving your pet alone in your house and worrying about how they're doing. I will alleviate those worries! You'll know that I'll be there to care for your best friend and I will send pics and updates too. I always communicate if something is wrong and I'm happy to do the little extras too (water plants, collect mail, bring out trash bins... just let me know and written instructions are best.)

This is the second time we’ve asked Caroline to take care of our kitty and are very happy with her service.

It took all of one walk for my dog Mabel to fall in love with Caroline. Mabel looks forward to seeing Caroline each morning. Caroline is very dependable and takes my dog on an interesting and varied walk every time.
