Highlights
Pet care experience
WFH dog buddy for walks, play and stay
I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life, from growing up with labradors to looking after friends dogs of all sizes. I offer doggy day care on Tuesdays and Fridays when I work from home, as well as weekends. I can also accommodate boarding for short or longer stays (I can adjust my WFH days as needed, or for longer stays my office is dog friendly!) I’m also open to walks only (so not daycare / boarding) for local, regular clients, just send me a message to discuss availability. My home has a private enclosed garden and I’m just a short walk from several large parks, so perfect for exploring on walks. Walks can be tailored to your dog’s needs and energy level, and I always make sure they get plenty of playtime and mental stimulation based on your preferences/ their routine. My home has both air conditioning and heating, so your dog will be comfy whatever the weather. I’m always happy to send updates and photos so you can see how much fun they’re having! I can be available for the occasional day here and there, but I'd really love to build relationships with a few regular clients and their pups, so your dog and I get to know eachother and you can be confident that they're in a trusted, safe and fun home.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Rassay always has a great time with Carolyn . He always comes back happy and tired from his busy day
Carolyn has looked after my dog many times over the years I’ve had him and she has always taken the best care of him. She’s a really kind person who is great with animals and will dedicate the time and effort an animal needs to be properly cared for. Carolyn has been great with helping my dog when he is having issues with other dogs. She’s my go to when needing some help to look after him. Could not recommend enough.

Schedule
I work from home Tuesdays and Fridays, so offer daycare on these days and weekends. For boarding, I can move my WFH days around, or for longer stays my office is dog friendly, so your pup will still be with me through the day with the same regular walks.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in garden and space in my home to crate if that is your preference. I also have Aircon in my garden room so your pup will be comfortable even on hot summer days. I'm happy to accommodate your dogs current routine as closely as possible to make sure they're happy and calm during their stay.
A typical day
I'll plan out the day as closely around your dogs existing routine as possible, and flex depending on drop off and pick up times. We'll typically start the day with either a morning walk or some play time in the garden/ house (depending on if they've had their morning walk yet). Then we'll settle down for the morning while I work, with breaks for lick mats/ playing mid morning. Around 1pm we'll go for a walk in the park, then settle down in the afternoon. Later in the day will depend on pickup time etc, maybe a short walk or some play time.
