I have extra food bowls, toys, and comfy couches, but please feel free to bring whatever you wish from your own home to ensure your pet’s stay is as comfortable as being home with you.

Information Carolyn R. would like to know about your pet

My big ask is that your pet is up-to-date on their vaccinations and they are free of fleas, ticks, etc. If your pet will need to be fed during their stay, please give me detailed instructions about their food and scheduled feed times, and whether or not they can have treats. Please advise if they are food aggressive as my dog will be here and will want to ensure there are no accidents! Please provide their food, any special snacks, special bed/blanket/toys, etc. Happy to follow your instructions, however strict or loose.

A typical day

Sooooo many cuddles! Let me know if your dog has specific preferences or has a favorite toy! We will definitely go for walks, but I can also take your pup to the dog park if you’d like.

Pets

Responsible, Reliable Animal-Lover!

Pet care experience

I am a kind, loving, responsible caregiver who will ensure your fur kid will the personalized attention and care they need. I understand that each animal has different personalities and characteristics and, in turn, will have specific needs. I will take the time to take care of your pets just like my own. I work remotely and have taken care of friends’ dogs, cats, and birds, as well as my own pets over the past years or so. I am patient, intuitive, will follow your specific directions, and will spend a lot of quality time with your pets. I can take them to the local dog park, beach, or “your favorite spot”, if you prefer. My own dog is a very social, mellow, and well-mannered neutered 6 1/2-year-old Chihuahua mix who gets along with other animals, and he would especially love another dog friend to play with. Your pet will be safe in my place and will always be on the leash when I take them outside.

Carolyn was an amazing sitter! She responded right away and was able to watch my dog Rebel on short notice. Rebel took to her instantly and had a great day with Carolyn and Lando. Can’t recommend her highly enough!

Carrie has watched our dogs over the years and we trust her to give them the best. When our dog, Ginger, had an eye infection and needed drops, we could count on her to give her the necessary medication. She has a great energy and loves dogs!

Carrie has been an absolute blessing for me and my pup! She’s dependable, caring, and truly loves what she does. My dog lights up the moment she arrives, and I always know he’s in great hands. Carrie goes above and beyond—whether it’s sending quick updates, making sure he gets plenty of exercise, or giving him extra love and attention. It’s such a relief to have someone I can completely trust. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, kind, and professional dog walker!

Carrie was an excellent sitter at our home for our two dogs, Apple and Winnie! We felt confident in trusting her with their care and would use her again!
