Pet care experience

***Under 80 Lbs preferred. Larger dogs can be discussed*** You can call me Carol. I love animals! I have taken care of my own dogs and cats for more than 10 years. I sit for cats and dogs. Or both. I have been dog and cat sitting for others in their own homes for the past 20 years. I also have given oral medications and supplements to the animals. I enjoy meeting and sitting for new animals and getting to know their individual personalities. Each one is special and unique. I will feed, exercise and play with your pet. I will walk them or if you have a fenced yard I can exercise them in their own yard. I also give them daily massage which they really enjoy. They will feel secure in their own surroundings and with their usual schedule. You can rest assured that your animals and your home will be taken care of while you are away. I will only take large dogs no bigger than 80 pounds.

Carol was absolutely fantastic! I want to begin by saying we’ve only ever had family stay with our pups so having to find someone new who we didn’t know was very nerve wrecking. When we met Carol, we knew she was going to be great with our pups. Throughout her stay she kept us informed of everything and it was so appreciated. This really helped calm our nerves while being away. She was thorough and followed our crazy (lol) instructions very well. He would absolutely rebook her again.

Carolyn is fantastic! We’ve used her twice to stay with our two dogs at our house and she does such a great job of taking care of them. Our pups have separation anxiety and leaving them has always resulted in trauma when we return, but having Carolyn here has made our returns so much easier and we are so thankful to know they are being loved while we are away from them.
