Safety, trust & environment

I have a large yard for your pup to play in but it is not fenced. My dog Buddy loves to play with other dogs and when he has company I always am outside with them. I allow pets on my couches or they can cozy up in their own bed if you would like to bring. If your dog needs to be leashed or walked I can certainly accommodate that. Buddy and I often take walks ourselves.

Pet care experience

I have had either cats or dogs most of my life and always am the one trying to pet any dog I see when I’m out and about, of course with pet parent’s permission. Anytime a family member or friend needs someone to watch their pup I am there go to fur baby caretaker. I currently have an 8 year old cat I rescued and a 5 year old male dog named Buddy. They are best friends. Buddy loves other dogs and loves to play.

Carolyn was incredible with Marley! We received a lot of pictures and updates, but most importantly we had so much peace knowing she was in good hands. We’re looking forward to the same comfort and care on our next trip!

We used Carolyn again and she was exceptional as always. We received regular updates on the animals and lots of photos. Our furry family was very happy and well cared for while we were away.

Carolyn watched my pup while I was in the area visiting with a friend. She was super easy to communicate with leading up to and during the the stay. Carolyn was so nice and made me feel comfortable leaving Charlie with her. I highly recommend her! Thanks Carolyn!

Carolyn was wonderful. She was easy to coordinate with and very communicative. We got photos and updates on our pets the whole time. We definitely recommend her!
