Highlights
Pet care experience
Your compassionate PET MAGNET
Caring for animals large and small, young and old, has been my greatest joy since childhood—this is truly a lifelong calling, not just a job! I'm equally confident guiding pups through patient leash training as I am providing a slower, relaxing "sniff-and-stroll" pace. I specialize in the tender art of coddling small puppies and kittens, ensuring they feel safe and loved. My experience extends beyond the usual; I’ve even rescued and assisted everything from birds and squirrels to bunnies. For your absolute peace of mind, I have a trusted friend who is a veterinary practitioner on speed dial for emergencies. My genuine love for animals is always felt—I’ve never met a stranger in an animal, and I guarantee your dog or cat will feel comfortable and happy in my care!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I prefer to go to your home and keep your pet safe in the environment they feel most comfortable in. I’m happy to walk your pet in your neighborhood and areas they are keen to.
Ratings and reviews
If you book with anyone else to care for your pets, it’s a mistake.


Carolyn V. cancelled a booking 3 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Carolyn is amazing!! She took great care of our dog and kitten while we were away and I had total peace of mind. Her kindness and attentiveness made this the best experience for us and our animals!


Carolyn is AWEsome! Our girls absolutely adore her. We always feel at ease that our girls are being well taken care of with Carolyn. We will definitely have her house / pet sit for us again.


Our crew loves Carolyn! She took great care of our 3 dogs, 1 cat, and our home while we were gone. We’ll happily have her back any time we travel.




We really hate having to leave our pets home when we travel, but Carolyn made it so easy for us. We have a high maintenance anxious doggy and a new kitty, so our house can be a little chaotic but she went above and beyond for them. She sent frequent updates and took care of our house and pets like they were her own! Couldn’t recommend her enough.

Schedule
I am a single female with no children currently working remotely from home. My day time job is recruiting engineers for our U.S. Navy. This allows me a lot of flexibility in walking your pets or supporting them from your homes. I have a passion for animals and find peace in the unconditional love our four legged friends provide us! I live in the Oak Forrest / Garden Oaks area and can easily come to your home to pet and house sit. Boarding animals can be so stressful on your furry family members, what a great alternative! I’m extremely trustworthy and have many references upon your request.
