As always Carolyn does such a great job caring for our fur babies! They love her and we enjoy our vacation worry free knowing they are in such great hands!

Carolyn is outstanding and highly recommended. She walks and sits for our 3 dogs, including an elderly Labrador. She is highly trustworthy (the only person we will leave the dogs with if traveling including international) and the dogs love her. A+

Always the best! We so appreciate Carolyn

After going over and over the sitters on Rover I just knew Carolyn was the best option. I can’t even explain what peace of mind it is to be able to leave our dogs and go on a long trip, knowing that they are happy and well cared for. We can travel again! We even had a family emergency and had to travel on short notice, Carolyn stepped in at the last minute and it was one less thing we had to worry about. She is mature, experienced, and caring. We cannot recommend Carolyn highly enough.

Safety, trust & environment

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 80 degrees. During the day they will benefit from grassy potty breaks, hydration, and vigorous play indoors with cool A/C to keep them safe and happy. Have a wonderful summer! FAQ: -Vaccinated? Yes, I am fully vaccinated. -Boosted? Yes, I stay updated with boosters as well.

Information Carolyn D. would like to know about your pet

-Please let me know if there is a schedule you want me to follow for you. I know that animals find routines soothing, so I want to do my best to adhere to what their life is normally like while you’re gone in an effort to soothe any anxiety they may have from your absence. -Also, I'm happy to assist in their training, we can discuss the good habits you want positively reinforced during my time with them. -Reactivity, if they have any triggers I would love to know, so I can be on the look out to protect and soothe them when they need it most.

A typical day

TYPICAL DAY: Your fur baby’s day will include lots of love, pets and cuddles. Exercise will be tailored to their individual needs (age, weight, breed, previous injuries etc.) so they can receive the mental and physical stimulation they need to be happy and well cared for until your return.

My day is spent working from my laptop and doing volunteer work. My last pup passed away last year at 16 years old. I'm not ready to get another baby yet, but I have all the time, experience and love to give to yours.
