Happy dogs light up my life

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Carolyn -- I can't wait to meet your pup. I strive to help your canines live happy and healthy lives. I grew up with dogs, and I can't wait until I move out of university grad housing so that I can have one of my own! I have been helping friends, family, and neighbors take care of dogs since I was a teenager. I love all dogs, big and small, young and old, and feel that I have a special ability to connect with them. The bulk of my dog care experience occurred during my years in college. I helped many faculty and staff (including the President of the University!) with their pets while they traveled to vacations and academic conferences. A bit more about me: I am in a PhD program in stem cell biology at Stanford. This means that all money I earn taking care of your pups will be going towards my education! Additionally, I am most proud of my enthusiasm for life -- this certainly translates to my dog care, as I prioritize safety, happiness, and healthiness.

Carolyn was conscientious and patient with the dogs and the house (not too mention with ALL of the crazy instructions we left her). She asked smart questions and stayed in touch while we were gone. Milo and Charlotte clearly adored her and had fun during the stay. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Carolyn again, she's terrific!

Buddy, our labradoodle, and we were very happy with Carolyn. She made good decisions and is very mature. We would definitely ask her to sit again.

Carolyn is reliable, responsible, communicative, friendly, and is a TRUE dog lover! <3 Our dog Angel enjoyed their time together very much and was incredibly well taken care of. Would rebook in a heartbeat!

I can’t recommend Carolyn enough to look after your pets she was my favorite dog sitter by far! She was was very easy to work with from beginning to end. I received daily updates and pictures so I knew my pups were well taken care of. We’re very lucky we found her!

Information Carolyn D. would like to know about your pet

Before sitting a dog, it is important that I ask about any allergies or other medical conditions. Some dogs have particular triggers (such as the mailman or other dogs), and I would like to know about these behavioral patterns for the safety of both the dog and myself.
