Highlights
Pet care experience
Medically Trained Loving Caregiver
Specialize in Seniors, Blind, Diabetic & Dogs in Heat - and Pitbulls (my favorite!) My Harvard Medical background sets me apart from the typical pet-sitter: I'm fluent in many medical and health conditions. My last fur-baby, a Rescue Pitbull, arrived blind & diabetic, so insulin shots and charting blood sugar was the daily norm. Together, we learned how to safely navigate the world, with a Diabetic-appropriate diet and exercise. (I became her 'seeing-eye human'.) I pet-sit in your home for the comfort of your pet(s). Pets are happiest at home, and their safety and comfort are everything. It's my goal to keep their life as close to normal as possible, so the only thing missing is you. I'm currently working towards certification in Basic dog training. My approach is praise and positive reinforcement, with food rewards and/or Clicker. I also work with the "FluentPet" system of teaching pets to communicate via word-buttons (think of Staples store button, "That Was Easy"!). I successfully work with several dogs who consistently communicate using between 4 - 7 words. It's a game-changer when your dog can use their words!!! I am also available to provide "CONSTANT CARE" which is around-the-clock, 24-hour/day care, where I dedicate ALL my time to caring for your pets - UPON REQUEST

Safety, trust & environment
I take care of your fur-baby(s) in your home, and keep their schedule and home life as close to normal as possible. For those that have medical issues and/or need medication, I am fluent in administering medications by liquid, pill & injection (sub-cutaneous, like insulin).
Ratings and reviews
Carolyn is our go-to sitter. The pups love her and she takes great care of them and our home.


We love Carolyn. Our dogs love her as well, very loving and caring, and a great communicator.
Carolyn did a great job babysittting our dog! We had daily updates with photos and highly recommend her to anyone seeking petcare.
Great photos- looks like all are having a good time!
Carolyn is amazing! She is a great communicator, very accommodating and flexible. During her stay she treated our pups like her own. She is very caring, knowledgeable and has medical experience. We felt totally comfortable that our pups were in great care while we were away! So much so that we were able to relax and enjoy. Highly recommended!!!
This is the second time Carolyn has sat for my pups and I couldn't be happier. I came home to happy pups and an organized house. She also sent photos every day showing the pups around the house.

Schedule
I work full-time as a Pet-Sitter & House-Sitter & Dog Trainer. As a Sitter, I stay overnight in your home with your pet(s). I take dogs out both first thing in the morning and last thing at night, providing bathroom breaks as needed, as per your individual needs. Puppies are taken out more frequently, of course. When staying in your home, with your pet(s), I bring everything I need: overnight bag, my own bedding & groceries. This eliminates any need for me to leave, allowing me more time with your pet(s).
Prices include all fees.
