Luxe Dog Walks & Cat Care/Sitting

Pet care experience

Hi there! I'm Caroline. I am so excited to be your dog's or cat’s second best friend. I adore all pups & kitties--and I love taking pictures of furry friends--so you'll never be without an update. My husband & I have a super pet friendly home with a dog & 2 cats and an 2.5 yr old old little girl who is loves pets. We take care of them as if they were our own. Our home is super cozy and comfy - especially compared to kennels. I love to walk them, play, give affection and give treats. I can care for your dog in my home or pop in to your home, and promise to treat them like you request! I provide a premium level of care and cater to you & your pet's needs. I prefer to do walks/and drop in but can take others on a case by case basis. I'm not available to stay at your home overnight since we have a young child. However, I can do early/late am/pm walks, drop ins and pet care. This is my full time business & people/pet photography so we’re flexible and have Rover premium coverage. Extra walks, breaks, special toys, attention or special requests, no problem! If you want a great experience and want to trust your sitter to take the best care of your fur babies, get in touch. Your pet will be happy, and well cared for when he/she stays with me. I'm a great sitter because I love pets and they love me! Very detailed. I listen and I care. I love being outdoors whether we're playing, exploring or just keeping your pet company so they’re not alone when your gone. I live in Huntington Beach-- just 10-15 minutes to Newport and Costa Mesa or right here in HB/FV area--with an adorable, rambunctious Doxie-Jack Russell mix, named Jackson & 2 sweet deaf white kitties. Our home is a cozy comfortable pet place with outdoor and indoor play spaces, lounge spaces and kitchen to cater to their needs. Jackson has lots of puppy energy and loves to play. He plays well with most all of our pet guests. Meet & greet required before booking ensures ia great fit. We understand how important it is to exercise in the morning so we head to out favorite local spots for a nice walk. We'd be happy to have your dog join us. Our two sweet kitties are dog friendly; it's important your dogs are okay with cats if they will be staying with us. We love to care for kitties too and are comfortable handling pets with special needs. Just ask! We love beach, walks & hikes--it's great to feel the sand beneath your paws! I am an experienced pet care provider. I started dog-walking at NYU for a photo agent whom I assisted, I missed my dog so it was a perfect job! I've had many pets of my own from Weimaraners, Doxie-Jack Russell, Terriers, Beagles, Labs, kitties and even Bassett Hounds--those ears! I'm experienced with a variety of dogs from toy to large breeds, as well as puppies, senior pets & all ages in between. I'm comfortable administering medicine if needed or following special care requests. I've cared for dogs & cats with some behavioral issues, so each pet & pet parent can discuss any concerns.. I run my own wedding and family/pet photography business, so I have a lot of time to spend with your beloved pet. I work from home during the week so I am here and can give your pets plenty of attention, potty breaks and walks. I will treat your pets and home like they were my own. I have excellent customer service skills and take pride in making customers happy. You can be comfortable knowing that your pet is in my very capable hands while you're gone, pet sitting isn't just a job for me, it's my passion. We care for dogs and cats. We have two sweet cats who are dog friendly but ask that your dog be cat-friendly if staying at our place as a guest or day care. I promise to build a relationship with both you and your pet, you can enjoy your vacation and your dog can enjoy their home away from home. I live in a nice home with my hubby and we're super responsible and provide updates. I'd love to set up a meet and greet with you to learn more about your needs! We require meet and greet for new clients & pet parents. We do accept last minute bookings but kindly request that you cancel with at least 4 hours (for emergency) to 24 hours courtesy notice to avoid being charged. If you don't see a service or rate listed, just ask. Day care includes up to 8 hours from 8am-6pm. After hours or late/early special requests may be accommodated with a small fee. We're flexible and like to make it easy on you and give you peace of mind. Please reach out to me with any questions. We are most appreciate of your kind gratuities and can accommodate most special requests. Thanks so much for stopping by. We look forward to meeting your fur babies and taking great care of them! Caroline :)

Caroline was great with our pup! I felt very assured that she would be safe and well cared for and she was. We got pictures throughout the day with updates which was great. It would have been nice to know that daycare only covered 6 hours when we initially booked, but it was worth it in the end.

One of my dogs doesn't do well with strangers so I had Caroline over for a visit to start to get to know him. He was calm around her and seemed to like her... will definitely have her back to build a relationship with him so I can have her over when I am away!

Caroline is a fun spirited lady. She is warm and friendly and loves all animals. She has 2 cats and a dog of her own and she does very well taking care of my pets from time to time when I'm out of town on work. They love playing & staying there. My pets love spending time with her and they're always happy when we return. She really does care about the pets in her care and they get lots of attention & good exercise so they come home well behaved and relaxed. She keeps everything clean and tidy when she come to my house to sit & when she leaves my house looks better than I left. We love having her work for us!

Caroline is a really nice person who has a natural care for those around her and this carries over into her care for animals. She recently adopted a rescue dog and takes really good care of him and will do the same for your animal.

I have lots of time and as a full time mom & would love to care for your fur babies. I have had pets my entire life and been pet sitting since college from large breeds to teacups and sweet kitties too. Most available M-F but can be available on weekends on occasion. I am NOT available for overnight house sits. However, I'm happy to do early morning or late night care with an add on fee.
