Safety, trust & environment

I pay attention to details and aim to follow all the instructions to the letter and I pride myself in being very communicate. I have experience meeting both gregarious and shy dogs. I have patience to let your pets come to me so that they feel comfortable with me in their home. Safety on walks is number one priority. This starts with secure leash/harness and includes awareness of triggers, and being conscious about the heat/cold.

Information Carolyn I. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or requirements. I should know anything else I should know about your pet including feeding schedule, daily schedule /requirements, quirks, and preferences. I need to be informed if anyone is reactive to people and/or other animals so I can avoided for the safety of your pet and others. I am not accepting pets that are not potty/litter box trained nor pets in heat at this time.

A typical day

I strive to stimulate your dogs mentally and physically. For walks, I try to keep a good pace to get the dog good exercising (heeding their limits -and weather - without pushing them too hard). For drop-ins, we can play games to stimulate the brain as well as keeping each other company. For sitting clients I can do a combination of the above and possibly excursions (that you permit and are comfortable with us doing).

Care Unleashed

Pet care experience

CPR & First Aid Certified | Insured & Bonded I have loved animals of all kinds since what seems like birth. I have years of experience caring for and working with pets of all kinds, ages, and health levels. I offer walks, drop-ins and some sitting services (see note). I am currently a stay at home mom so my days are flexible. ***Note regarding SITTING Services: I am typically unable to stay overnight in your home. However, this does not prevent me from providing high quality, attentive care. I guarantee that I will return promptly first thing the following morning to tend to your pet’s needs. I commit to working with you to find a schedule that works for you and instills confidence that your pets are taken care of up to your standards. I have experience administering medication, both oral and injections. My last dog had severe health issues and food allergies that required daily shots, pills, and home cooked meals with numerous supplements. I have experience with puppies as young as six weeks old (and kittens as young as two) as well as seniors. I’m comfortable taking care of special needs animals as well. I am communicative prior and throughout service, including updates, recaps and photos. I am incredibly patient with animals and their behaviors and pride myself in making them comfortable with me. When on walks your dog’s safety is my number one priority. I always carry a doggie water bottle in case they get thirsty or it’s hot. I'm currently the pet parent of a high energy Australian Cattle Dog/Husky mix and a well-meaning Siamese mix. COVID vaccinated.

Carries was so great! Our husky is a cat dog and can be an oddball at times and Carrie took great care of her! Koda was very happy when we returned. Carries gives great updates and makes you really feel safe leaving your pets. Will be booking again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
