Pet care experience

Retired RN with love and laughter

I have been a constant dog owner since age 10 years. I spent 40 years in the nursing profession. I am a trained observer and I know when and how to ask questions. Your furbaby will be treated with as much love as I give my 12 yo senior gal: Ruby. Potty breaks; hydration; nutrition; and emotional support will hallmark my care for your beloved family member.

As usual, Carolyn was awesome and my Vito had a great time! I feel very confident and comfortable leaving my baby with her! I love getting the pictures during his stay with her!

I can always tell how well Rylie is cared for by her demeanor when she comes home. Rylie was very happy when she saw me and didn’t look down at all. Thank you for caring for my pup.

Carolyn was a great dog sitter! One of the best we've ever had. Conscientious, caring, attentive. Followed through on our routine with feeding and activity. Thank you for everything!

Schedule

Retired and widowed. Just me and my Ruby-Dog who has adopted a demeanor of “caregiver.” She always barks a warning to me when persons approach my door. However, she is not aggressive and tolerates a great deal more than I would have ever expected.
