Carolyn and Kristopher are the best dog sitters I could ever ask for! My pups arrive excited and leave happy and healthy. I would recommend them to anyone.

Gunner loves going there so much that he seems a little torn when we come to pick him up. It’s such a pleasure to be able to go away and know your beloved pet is loved and cared for while you’re away. It is such a relief that he is so happy there. Thank you so much Carolyn and Kristopher!

Carolyn and her family are the best sitters I could ever hope for. My dog gets so excited to go to their home and I know she’s always having a good time because Carolyn sends regular photos and updates. I felt confident my pup was in good hands when I went on a one month trip. I would recommend Carolyn and her family to anyone looking for a dog sitter you can trust!

Carolyn and her family have always taken care of my dogs so well. I don’t have to feel worried when I’m gone because I know they’re in good hands. I love that Carolyn sends regular updates and photos. One of my dogs is a senior and has had more needs lately. Carolyn stepped up and provided for him 100%. I don’t go to anyone else on Rover because Carolyn and Kristopher are the best I’ve found! I would recommend them to anyone.

We have used Carolyn and Kristopher 3 times. Once for daycare and twice for a longer stay. They are amazing. Between making sure Gunner gets plenty of exercise and attention they keep in close contact with us. I get updates with pictures each day. I think he loves it at their house so much he might want to live there. It’s so nice to be able to leave him and know that he is loved and cared for while we are away. Wonderful people and pet lovers.

Schedule

I am a stay at home mama. Now that my daughter is in school, I would love to work with dogs again. My husband works hybrid so I would have an extra set of hands from time to time.

Important!! Dogs must be vaccinated and up to date on their shots before staying with us. We also require flea/tick/mosquito/heartworm treatments. Preferably dogs are around, comfortable & familiar with young active kids and must be dog friendly. Let us know if they have dietary requirements, What times they eat, and if they are potty trained (Do they let you know when to go potty)?. What is their home environment like (ie allowed on furniture, where do they sleep, what is their usual routine, are they allowed to have dog treats and some human food, any other info you feel we should know. No boarding without proof of up-to-date vaccines!!
