Information Caroline W. would like to know about your pet

I really like to know anything particular about your pet, such as whether you like to let them sniff a lot on walks, how they handle the rain, and anything else that might be helpful in deciding how to best walk your dog!

A typical day

I typically will walk your dog around any park nearby to your home. If there’s a dog park you like to take them to, I’m more than happy to play fetch or keep away with them to best help your pet exercise!

Caroline was so great with our cat Roxy! Roxy can get very stressed/territorial when we’re away and Caroline was very patient and followed the care instructions we left super closely to help Roxy feel more comfortable. I would definitely recommend Caroline (especially if you also have a more anxious cat)

Caroline took excellent care of our two kitties. She was responsive and flexible, and our kitties liked her very much. Would definitely book again.

Caroline was so easy to work with, flexible, and followed my instructions beautifully especially about medicating my diabetic cat. Would absolutely book her again!
