Pet care experience
Safe and Loving Care, 20 years exp.
ABOUT ME: I specialize in caring for: -Senior dogs -Dogs w/separation anxiety IG: sacramentopetnanny I have cared for and owned various breeds for the past 20 years, from puppyhood all the way through senior years. I am well equipped to keep your baby safe, cared for and tenderly loved until your return. There is no breed too large or too small. I offer consulting to other Rover sitters to find ways to improve the quality of care they provide to their animals and the overall level of service to their clients.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
-I work in a way that respects you, your pet, and your home. Your privacy is important. -I clearly communicate with you beforehand to understand the needs of your pet and the standards of your home so that you can benefit from a sense of peace while you’re away. ***SUMMER HEAT SAFETY*** Due to the summer heat, I only take your pooch for walks at a time of day when the temperature is below 76 degrees. During the day they will benefit from potty breaks, hydration, vigorous play and mentally stimulating activities indoors with cool A/C to keep them safe and happy. Special consideration is also taken when it comes to cold climate breeds and seniors as temperatures become more extreme. Please feel free to ask me about the precautions I take to keep your Pooch safe during our Meet and Greet. If you have any questions, please feel free to send them my way. I can’t wait to meet you! Have a great summer! FAQ: -Vaccinated? Yes, I am fully vaccinated. -Boosted? Yes, I stay updated with boosters as well.
Ratings and reviews
Carolyn has done a fantastic job caring for our very anxious pup (and my own anxiety as a worried dog mom)! She has been SO patient and committed to ensuring our dog is comfortable. She also took amazing care of our home and garden!
This is the second time Carolyn stayed with our two senior dogs, and again she took great care of them while we were visiting family over the holidays. We returned home to a clean house and fresh-smelling pups from their baths earlier in the day. Carolyn kept us updated with photos and videos throughout the week so we could enjoy our time awy without being worried.
Carolyn is an exceptional pet sitter. When she first came to meet us, it was clear she underrtood our dogs’ behavior and personalities. One of our dogs had recently had a leg amputated, and we were nervous about leaving him for an extended vacation. But Carolyn’s knowledge and experience, along with her comfort with special needs dogs, put us at ease. While we were away, she sent us daily updates with photos and videos, which showed that the dogs were healthy and happy under her care. Carolyn was conscientious about taking care of the house as well as the dogs, and it was spotless and neat when we got home. She even surprised us by giving both of our dogs a bath, so both they and the house smelled great. We are grateful to have found Carolyn and look forward to having her watch our boys again in the future.
We have such peace of mind when we travel and book with Carolyn! She she keeps our high energy and anxious doggo tuckered out and she treats him like a king. He absolutely loves her and even tried to go sleep in her guest room the day we got home. She is a fantastic and considerate house guest and great with quick communication and keeping us up to date. We will definitely continue to book with Carolyn!
Carolyn was a fantastic sitter! We felt very comfortable leaving on vacation knowing our fur babies were with her :) She took tons of photos and you can tell our pets were very happy and stimulated while we were gone. She even taught our Golden Retriever how to solve a food puzzle! We would happily use Carolyn again in the future! Thanks again!
Thank you as always for taking amazing care of our girls, we are so grateful!!

Schedule
My day is spent working from home and I do volunteer work that takes me out of the house for a few hours 2-3 days out of the week. My last pup passed away at 16 years old and I have all the time, experience and love to give to your sweet babies.
