Dogs make the best friends

Pet care experience

Having been a dog walker/sitter for friends and neighbors on an informal basis for many years, I have now decided to make this my full-time career! Whilst I loved my job in the City, I am at my happiest when spending my day amongst my favorite furry friends, so decided to make a career switch. My husband and I grew up with several different breeds including Labradors, Retrievers, German Shepherds and even a German-Doodle (he was a happy accident, before cross breeds were cool!). We began welcoming dogs into our home and sitting about 6 years ago as a way to introduce our children to the joys of having a dog, but without the permanent tie and have loved caring for the variety of pooches who return for repeat visits throughout the year. We guarantee lots of walks, treats and love and work with all our dog parents to ensure that any requirements over and above the norm are well taken care of. We are lucky to have also made some lovely friends along the way. We’re outdoors people and so love to have a four legged friend with us on our adventures. We can’t wait to get to know you and your pooch better and welcome them to our family! Fully insured and American Red Cross trained in dog first aid.

Caroline was very detailed during our meet and greet. We loved that she asked very important questions and took notes. She took great care of our puppy and we were able to feel relieved knowing he was in great hands.

Caroline was very accommodating and flexible with our last minute booking. She got along wonderfully with our german shepherd Libby. The pictures and daily updates reassured us that Libby was being well taken care of and loved. We will definitely contact Caroline again for our next trip!

By far the best sitter we have had!! At our initial meet & greet we were not only impressed with how clean and organized her home and yard were, but she took the time to sit down with us to ask all the important questions and she wrote everything down. We have had several meet & greets with other sitters and although they asked questions, none had taken the time to write things down. In addition, our dog usually is sad the entire time we leave him with a sitter and is more than happy to come home. Caroline and her family gave Troy so much love and attention that he not only looked happy in every photo we received but for the first time ever he was sad when he came home. He only looks sad when he misses someone (ie: when the kids go back to college or we leave on vacation). But we were all home so the only explanation was that he missed Caroline and her family. If you're looking for a mindful, trustworthy sitter in a home your dog will get the most love and attention - then look no further and book her fast. She is absolutely the BEST!!

Came home from a weekend at the Jersey shore to a household of happy and healthy pets. We even received text updates and pictures throughout the weekend to assure all was well. Thanks Caroline P.
