I currently work virtually, so am incredibly flexible and able to accommodate a variety of situations during my workday. This means I can work on both workdays and weekends. Furthermore, I am generally very flexible and have lots of free time, so chances are I'll be able to make something work!

I will care for my client's pet in their home with care and love. I try to walk dogs I care for at least 3 times a day for at least 15-20 minutes - more if the dog is very active. I also make sure to fill the water bowl and feed the pups on time. I will also go outside to the backyard (if present) and play with the dog there. Because I work from home, I am extremely flexible and able to give dogs more attention than they might get at a kennel or other situation. Overall, I am extremely conscientious, and what's more, I am a genuine dog lover and am attuned to their needs. I will care for your dog with the utmost attention and love.

Unabashed dog lover!

Pet care experience

I've been caring for pets since I was eight years old and my family adopted its first dog. Beyond the typical duties of walking, feeding, playing, and training I've performed for my personal pets, I also began walking dogs at shelters when I was in middle school, and continued to throughout college. Since graduating college a year ago, I've been hired to walk and take care of multiple dogs in my neighborhood, which I've done so joyfully. I am also a member of Trusted Housesitters, and have travelled around the country to visit new places while caring for pets. I have a variety of experience and am the biggest dog lover you'll probably ever meet!

Caroline was absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of my dog, sent lots of updates, and left my house super clean.

I think very highly of Caroline Speidel, my next door neighbor, whom I have known since she was in grade school. She is friendly, personable and very responsible. On several occasions she has cared for our cats while we traveled. This task included bringing in mail and newspapers, etc. and she carried out all her responsibilities very well. I have observed her many, many times over the years walking her first dog Sandy and now walking her new pup. Caroline is always kind to my 5 granddaughters when they visit me and want to spend time with her and her dog. Caroline is just the right kind of person to join the Rover team.

Caroline is an enthusiastic dog caregiver and lover! She was super friendly and took extra time with my dog Pippo. Her rates are great for what she offers.

I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Caroline as a pet sitter. She cared for our two pomskies during our week-long vacation last March and did an exceptional job. Caroline walked our dogs daily, provided us with updates each day, administered Luna’s seizure medication twice a day, and showered both dogs with love and attention. Caroline is reliable, attentive, and respectful of your home. She also takes the initiative to ask clarifying questions to ensure your pets have the best care possible. We were able to enjoy our trip with complete peace of mind knowing our dogs were in excellent hands. I highly recommend Caroline to anyone in need of a caring and responsible pet sitter.
