Experienced dog runner (and lover)!
Pet care experience
I love dogs, but because we have two cats--Olivia and Matilda, who is a blind scaredy cat!--we can't currently have one. Because of this, when we lived in South Carolina I signed up at my local animal shelter to walk and run dogs. During my time there I received dog handling training and ran with a shelter pup at their biweekly runs and at special events and loved it so much! I have experience with a wide range of sizes and breeds, and have experience with defensive walking with leash reactive/dog aggressive pups. I've been in Philly for a little over a year now, and have loved exploring my new city walking dogs through Rover. Rover makes you choose odd windows of availability, so I'd like to clarify: I am generally available for walks M-F, but not between the hours of 9:00am and noon on MWF, as I participate in a co-work session those days. I can often be flexible with last-minute requests, but not always--sometimes I need to go to the library at Penn to work. I usually plan those trips for days I don't have bookings, so if I hear from you that morning, I may not be able to oblige! I will always try my best to take on a late request, so please just message me!
Reviews
Carolyn is so caring and trustworthy. I never have to worry when I know she’s taking care of Toby.
Carolyn is so caring and trustworthy!!!
Carolyn has been very responsible and communicative. I am confident my dog, who can be a little stubborn and willful on his leash, is in good hands.
Carolyn was great! I appreciate her taking the time to meet Toby and I prior to his scheduled walk. I love the thorough update she provided to me and the end of their walk together!

Information Carolyn C. would like to know about your pet
How do they generally react to strangers? Have they ever bitten? Are they leash reactive/dog aggressive? What are their favorites toys/walking routes? Do they know any commands? Is there anything YOU'D like me to know?
A typical day
Generally I think of these walks as "me time" for your dog. Want to stop and sniff every square inch? Want to go to the dog park? Want to walk and keep to him/herself? Want to burn off energy jogging? I'm game for it all!
