Pet care experience

Reliable care for your fur-babies!

I grew up with two cats, and in 2020 I adopted a sweet senior from the shelter (she is in my profile pic)! The time we had together was wonderful, but she was diagnosed with cancer and has since crossed the rainbow bridge 💗 I am available for in-home care for your dogs and cats, and am able to come for a meet n greet so the pet can meet me and you can introduce me to their routine at home.

Absolutely outstanding! Carolyn gave us daily photos and messages. She cleaned up after herself and took great care of the house along with my two senior dogs! She provided daily exercise and gave them attention so they didn’t get lonesome. We will definitely be using her again.

Carolyn took great care of our dog Bailey while staying in our home, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was very thoughtful about keeping us in the loop—sending updates and photos that reassured us everything was going smoothly. Bailey is an older pup who needs medication and a little extra TLC, and Carolyn handled his routine with ease and genuine care. It meant a lot to us to know he was comfortable and well looked after while we were out of the country. We truly appreciated Carolyn’s reliability and attentiveness, and we would gladly have her stay with Bailey again. Highly recommend!

Carolyn took such amazing care of Botti, and we are very grateful. She bonded with him, showed him great love, and although he probably missed us, he had a wonderful experience.

Carolyn was very attentive to my dogs specific needs. It was our first trip longer than a week and he was well taken care of while we were away. She was very responsive and sent many updates which were appreciated I would absolutely use her again.

Please let me know if your dog knows specific commands (‘off’/‘leave it’/etc) and what their energy level is. If there are any oral medications, I can administer. If it’s an injectible, I did this for my senior dog and would just ask that we administer the first one together.
