Dont worry mom... I.m having fun!!
Pet care experience
I originally started pet sitting for my sister, who travels weekly. I started noticing how much more active and happy I was while I walked & house sat my sisters dogs, Dog sitting/walking keeps me fit also. As an empty nester, they are great company. Realizing how much I was enjoying pet sitting, I decided to branch out. Several of my clients are in sales which involves a lot of travel, others are just looking for a weekend away or a pet free vacation. My fees are flexible to fit your budget. Since I live in Sierra Springs, I like to walk my dogs on the trails at Jenkins Lake, on the paved trails across from the fire station on Sly Park or along the creek on Clear Creek Rd. It pretty much depends on the weather & the sociability of the dog. I'll cater the walk time to your pets needs. I've had dogs my entire life and treat them as if they are family...which they are. I will never harm, scare or put your animal in a position of danger...ever!! I'm an equal opportunity sitter...cats, fish, birds are all welcome too.
Reviews
She was great! Took great care of my very active pup! I will trust her again!
I have known Carolyn for many years, and one of the first things I noticed about her is that animals absolutely adore her, and she loves them back! Carolyn is responsible, reliable, trustworthy and very thorough. She can handle all kinds of situations swiftly and logically. She is an excellent communicator and very patient and loving to all of our furry friends, simply put she's a great friend to all. She will make sure all are exercised, have lots of fun, and are very comfortable at all hours of day or night. She is very clean and organized and will leave your space better than when she entered. Carolyn a very professional, caring, kind, active and conscious human being who is always in service to others--be it human, canine, feline, or any living creature. I highly recommend Carolyn for your pet sitting needs, she will become your pets next best friend (and yours as well)!
Carolyn is part of the family. My two Chihuahuas, Cody and Charlotte, are rescues. I couldn't imagine putting them in a kennel when I travel, which is frequent. They have anxiety when they see me pack my suit case to leave. When Carolyn is here they forget that I am leaving and are delighted to see her. She loves them like they are her own...and they know it! They absolutely love her. It is peace of mind. She comes to my home, for days at a time. My home and dogs are well taken care of in my abscence. My two have baggage as many rescues do, she is very sensistive to thier needs. I cant tell you how much I appreciate this! She has helped in thier healing. Her frequent photos sent while I am on the road are also very comforting and put a smile on my face.

Information Carolyn M. would like to know about your pet
I just need to know their usual potty schedule, any behavioral issue I should know about i.e. agressive to other dogs or fears/phobias they may have. Let me know if their vaccines up to date, especially rattlesnake. If they are on meds, what is the dose and when shpuld it be administered. Food do's and don't's. A number for your vet encase of any emergencies. Of course... their favorite toy.
A typical day
I love taking the dogs out to the park. Trails are always nice since there is so much to smell and dogs LOVE smelling EVERYTHING! If they like to play ball, stick, stuffed animal...we'll play it. If they just want to cuddle, I'm more than happy to oblige. If you have a dog that like to swim I'll happily take them out to swim. If they are dog park friendly, it's always,a great place for them to socialize.
