Safety, trust & environment

While providing dog-walking services, I always strive to make sure I know everything I need to know about the pet before entering the home. I will give the pet a chance to become comfortable with me and make sure they are given whatever they need other than some exercise and bathroom time (food, fresh water, treats and of course some cuddles). I will also always ensure the owner is updated on how their pet is doing before I leave the home.

Information Caroline S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog needs to be provided with medications beforehand or has any behavioral triggers that I should avoid while they are under my care.

A typical day

Whether it is a leisurely walk or a high energy run around with lots of spots for sniffing, I am happy to provide whatever your pet needs to be both physically and mentally stimulated and happy!

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10. Whether I was walking my friends’ and neighbors’ dogs or working as an assistant at a dog grooming shop, I’ve always enjoyed being in their company. I have experience with dogs of all sizes. I am familiar with dog behavior and have experience providing dogs medications.

Caroline has taken fantastic care of our two cats while we traveled on multiple occasions. She communicates regularly during our time away and always sends the best updates/pics of them playing. Caroline is kind, courteous, responsive and punctual — and our fluff balls love seeing her. 10/10 would recommend Caroline for your pet sitting needs.

Caroline was fantastic and amazing at handling our high energy 1 year Boxer puppy. She was very easy going and flexible. Our puppy, Bri, had a great time with her and highly recommend her. We would definitely hire her again to pet sit!
