Safety, trust & environment

I am familiar with the importance of making sure your dog is safe and feels safe, especially keeping dogs leashed when outside the home and safe from stressful situations. I am comfortable and familiar with crate training and any other safety or training requests. I am experienced using gentle leader and martingale type collars as well.

Information Carolynn N. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if you have treats that you would like me to use in play or some light training reinforcement I can help with. If there's any behavioral or health issues I should be aware of or anxiety triggers that would be very helpful!

A typical day

I love to make sure dogs are getting their physical and mental needs met. I will play inside or outside whatever the situation dictates. Smells are so important to dogs and I'll make sure they get their daily sniffs around the neighborhood!

Pet care experience

Taking reservations in the Bridgeport area as of December 2025! I've had the pleasure of having cats and dogs my whole life, my most challenging was gaining the trust of and training my rescued 120lb Akita. I am able to work with the friendliest as well as timid dogs as I've undergone different types of training. I value positive reinforcement and the use of space to calm dogs and help them feel safe and relaxed. I do my best to give cats who desire attention all they want and give plenty of space for those who prefer a more gentle presence. I have experience with ocular and oral medication for both cats and dogs.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Carolynn. She stayed the weekend with our girls and gave us wonderful detailed updates and the best pictures. Our dogs are a pair of opposites - one a demanding diva, the other very relaxed and easy going and handled both with care. We felt so good being away and knowing they were in such great hands. Thank you again, Carolynn!

Carolynn is a great sitter! She took very good care of our two cats, sending several pictures so it felt like we knew how they were doing. She played with them and they loved her right back!
