I can’t wait to meet your babies!
Pet care experience
I am a George Washington University graduate returning to the city for law school. My family has two rescue chihuahua mixes, but I have experience walking and taking care of larger dogs. Since I started college, I have been walking and house-sitting a variety of dogs and cats in Washington, DC. I also have experience caring for a variety of other pets, such as rabbits and amphibians. In the past, I volunteered at an animal rescue, walking dogs of different sizes and temperaments. I would love to get to know dogs of any size! If your dog is high-energy, I would be happy to take it for longer walks. I am fully vaccinated for COVID-19.
Reviews
This is our third time Caroline has watched our large dogs. She is absolutely wonderful them. One of our dogs is older and needs special attention and the other is young and energetic - Caroline was fabulous with both. We love that Caroline communicates with us frequently and regularly sends photos. We highly recommend her to other dog owners.
Caroline did an amazing job dropping in on my two kitties while I was away! They warmed up to her very quickly and she did a fantastic job caring for and playing with them, was professional and prompt at all times, and provided wonderful updates throughout her visits. I have complete trust in Caroline and will happily reach out to her again in the future when I'm traveling. Thank you so much for looking after the kitties!
Caroline is so great with my dog Billie and always gives detailed reports! Hire her!!!
Caroline is excellent! This was the second time she watched our dogs overnight, and they loved her. She was very communicative and responsive and sent photos of our dogs, which we always appreciate. We definitely recommend her and look forward to having her watch our dogs in the future!

Safety, trust & environment
Because dogs are in different situations than they would normally be in, I minimize risks. I always watch dogs when they are outside, even if yards are securely fenced.
Information Caroline U. would like to know about your pet
Let me know how your dog reacts to other people and animals. I would love to know if there are certain toys or places that make your dog feel most comfortable.

When house-sitting, I think it is important for continue a pet's regular schedule. I love to snuggle with pups who enjoy attention. I also enjoy long walks, so I am happy to explore the neighborhood with energetic pups.
