I'm great with pets of all kind!

Pet care experience

I've had pets my entire life. I grew up with indoor and outdoor cats and dogs. I love animals and I have a great deal of experience caring for them! I volunteered at the Leon County Animal Shelter for two years and I've cared for and walked dogs of all shapes, sizes and ages. I've petsat for friends and family for the past five years and I love getting to care for and socialize with so many different dogs and cats. I've even volunteered at wildlife rescues and have experience caring for lemurs, tortoises and rhinos! I will take great care of your pet and I am especially good with any pets that have special needs like taking medicine. I will keep your pet safe and happy!

Carrie is an experienced pet owner and an excellent pet care giver! Carrie has watched over my baby puppy Noel who has trust issues and has always given Noel the love and trust she needs. Every time I come home I come home to an happy puppy. Carrie is super responsible, loving, and trustworthy! I would recommend her to anyone with pets. Carrie has also pet sat my turtle Squirt and as always does a fabulous job!

I have known Carrie for several years; she is a conscientious, responsible young lady. She has taken take of my pets several times : large dogs and elderly cats. While house sitting, she also filled bird feeders, hummingbird feeders, fed squirrels and filled bird baths. Carrie has always loved and respected animals; it shows in how she treats them. The house is always immaculate when I return. I am comfortable knowing if a question arises, she will call and ask. I heartily recommend Carrie for any post advertised through Rover; she will do an exceptional job!

Carrie is the most responsible, reliable, trustworthy pet care provider I know. She has years of experience caring for dogs, cats and other pets in several homes and settings. I recommended her to a friend whose beagle Beauregard had extensive health issues. His care involved medications and having to be carried up and down a flight of stairs every time he went outside to relieve himself which Carrie happily did day and night. Carrie forms life long bonds with every pet for which she provides care. She house and pet sat for another friend that had a very large elderly dog named Annie. When Annie passed away years later, Carrie volunteered to help lay her to rest because she was too big for her owner to handle alone. Carrie also has volunteer experience working at animal shelters and environmental education facilities that house nondomesticated animals. Her cats, Marcy and Chimi, are rescues that can personally vouch for Carrie's virtues as a pet owner!

Carrie is super great with all animals. Her love for them is something I have always admired about her. Throughout high school and even into college she would spend her free time volunteering at the animal shelter. I recently went to visit her while she was working in Idaho and one of the first things she wanted to show me was a dog at a no kill shelter there. She would go every chance she got to see this dog and spend time loving on him . Her heart is huge and I would trust her with any of my animals.

Information Carrie K. would like to know about your pet

I have no preference on breed. I will care for all dogs! If there is anything you feel I need to know, I'm very accommodating I just like to be prepared. Please let me know if the dog is very high energy, needs special attention, medications or is aggressive.

A typical day

I love being outdoors and going on walks so I'd walk your dog in a nearby park or green space and try to get away from heavily trafficked areas so your dog will have a safe place to walk and exercise. If there's a dog park nearby I'd take them there if permitted so that they can socialize with other dogs and get out a lot of energy.
