Pet care experience

We love all pets!

I've cared for animals since I was a kid. I grew up on a farm with dogs, cats, fish, pigs and cows. As an adult I raised 4 dogs from puppyhood, two I cared for until their last days. My friends and family trust me to care for their pets, mostly dogs but I'm also experienced with cats, birds and fish. My husband John is an animal lover as well and we sometimes work as a team to give the best quality care possible.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I can bathe your pet, brush, give meds, feed, and provide transportation if needed. I can crate your pets if they are crate trained. I can provide a warm lap to snuggle. If you have a fenced yard I can play outside with your pet off leash. If you don't have a fenced yard and your pets prefer to play off leash, let's talk about it. I can give walks on leash. I will work with your pet on potty training, crate training, and simple commands if you would like. Recently I cared for a dog (50 lbs.) with hip dysplasia and carried her up stairs several times each day. Another dog I cared for recently was a rescue from a hurricane and has intense storm anxiety.

After a family emergency I scrambled to find a sitter last minute while I was in a different country. Carrie stepped in and took care of my three girls so effortlessly and intelligently I can't praise her enough. She was flexible, attuned to the needs of three very different dogs and I can tell from their photos they are absolutely comfortable. Would hire again without question.

My furr babies (rescues) loved Carrie right away. I was able to go on a last minute trip with my friends. I really appreciated the pictures and the overall communication. So glad we were able to meet and that we are close to each other!

Carrie was great. She helped us out at the last minute and took excellent care of our two kitties. Will definitely use Carrie again the next time we travel.

This was my first time leaving my fur child with someone I just met and first time using Rover. Carrie’s great care and attention to Posey, put me at great ease and allowed me to enjoy my vacation without worry. I would use her services again and would highly recommend her.

We were very pleased with Carrie's care for our dog Dusky and our house during a brief, 2 1/2 day, vacation. We highly recommend her and will certainly call upon her again.
