Availability
My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide reliable care for pets throughout the day. I am available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on your dog’s needs. Because I manage my own schedule, I can often accommodate last-minute walks or drop-in visits as well.

Behavior-Focused Dog Care
Pet care experience
I am a lifelong animal lover with a strong background in behavior science. I have professional experience working in applied behavior analysis and I am currently completing my degree in psychology, where I focus on how behavior is shaped through the environment and reinforcement. Dogs have always been a central part of my life. I currently live with three dogs, including high-drive working breeds, so I understand the importance of exercise, structure, and mental engagement. Because of my background in behavior science, I focus on positive reinforcement, clear communication, and creating calm, safe environments for dogs. Whether your dog needs a reliable walk, companionship while you are away, or someone who understands behavior and energy levels, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, engaged, and well cared for. I am especially comfortable with active breeds and dogs that need extra structure or mental stimulation. Services offered may include walks, drop-in visits, and companionship depending on your dog’s needs.
Reviews

Great to work with! Super communicative and thoughtful.

Super responsive and caring. I would recommend and book again.

Carolyn was a huge help to me today! I had a full day of work and kids activity and no time to walk my dog, and she was able to help me out of the jam and get my dog the exercise he needed on super short notice. She took great care of him!

She was constantly communicating with me. I couldn’t have possibly asked for anything more. She’s my new go to!
