My schedule is very flexible! I usually go to the gym in the mornings, and the rest of my day is dedicated to studying as a full-time online student. Because I work from home, I’m able to structure my time around your pet’s needs—whether that means frequent walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or simply keeping them company. My routine naturally revolves around providing consistent, attentive care so your pet feels supported and never alone.

About Caroline S.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I tailor my care to each pet’s personality and the environment you provide. If your pet is energetic and loves walks, I’m happy to get them out and moving. If you have a big backyard, we’ll make the most of it with plenty of supervised playtime. If your pet prefers a calmer atmosphere, I’m more than happy to relax, keep them company, and make sure they feel comfortable. My goal is always to follow their routine, match their energy, and ensure they feel safe and cared for in their own home.
Information Caroline S. would like to know about your pet
I like to be fully prepared so I can give your pet the best care possible. It’s invaluable to know about any triggers they may have such as loud noises, fireworks, other animals, or separation anxiety. I also need to be informed of any health concerns, medications, or special routines they follow. The more I know beforehand, the better I can plan, understand their needs, and come prepared with any questions!
A typical day
I love tailoring activities to each pet’s personality and comfort level! If your dog enjoys outings and you’re comfortable with it, I’d be thrilled to take them on hikes or explore nearby parks—especially if they’re adventurous and able-bodied. I played a lot of frisbee in college, so a good game of fetch is always on the table! Of course, not every pet is all about action. I’m also a big fan of relaxed hangout time. Reading with a dog curled up next to me or giving calm pets plenty of gentle attention is one of the most underrated joys out there. Whether your pet is playful, outdoorsy, or laid-back, I’m here to make sure they have a great time.

Desiring animal companions
Pet care experience
I’ve spent almost a decade caring for a wide variety of animals, ranging from cats and dogs to lizards and tortoises, for employers at my university in Arizona, as well as for friends and family. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and always treat them with the same care and respect as if they were my own. I also volunteer with One Step Closer Animal Rescue, previously as a dog walker and now as a dog handler at events. This experience has helped me become comfortable interpreting different behaviors, building trust, and safely handling all types of rescue dogs. I’m currently a full-time online Electrical Engineering student, which gives me the flexibility to work from anywhere and be present with your pets throughout the day. I’m big on communication and following instructions to the letter. The more instructions and details, the better. If anything needs clarification, I’ll always ask. My goal is to make you feel confident, and for your pets to feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your pets! 🐾
Reviews
You did such a great job. The cutting board was on its last leg.
When I tell you we are obsessed with her and our dog, Dunkin, even more so. Caroline and her partner kept in constant contact with us, kept us informed, asked questions, and sent us SOOO many daily pictures I didn’t even know what to do with myself. My husband and I were out of the country and I wasn’t once worried about what was going on back home with our precious baby. The first day we left at 5:30 am she was by our house at 6 am because she knew everyone was anxious, and when I saw on the back door camera that my dog was SPRINTING to play with Caroline my heart was so happy. To say I would trust Caroline with my dog’s life is genuinely not an understatement. We loved them so so much, I hope she continues dog sitting for us forever😭😭🫶🏻💖
Caroline is great with our dog. Super reliable and communicative!
Meeting Caroline we immediately felt like she was a good fit for our Daisy, a 14 year old sweet girl. She did an amazing job with all aspects of an older dog and also a winter snow storm. We highly recommend her. She is kind, gentle, responsive, and always upbeat. Thank you so much Caroline for all that you’ve done and we are so delighted to have met you, become friends with you, and welcomed you into our families life. You are truly the best.
