Information Carrie M. would like to know about your pet

I like to know if the animal has been treated for tics, if they are social with other dogs and people. I would like to know if they have anxiety and do they prefer to be in a kennel when I step out , as I have one on hand if so. I like all sizes of dog but the cost to take care of a big breed will be more because of the extra time I have to spend with it.

A typical day

We walk up to legacy trail and walk to shamrock park. I like to go to the dog park if they are social. I run them in the back yard with a ball and tug a war in the house with their toys, so sometimes the toys will come back damaged.

Pet care experience

I enjoy walking and playing, and all the animals I have had the pleasure of taking care of benefit from that. My bloodhound /lab up north had high anxiety and high energy when we took her in, and after a few weeks of long walks twice a day she calmed down. My jack Russel was also high strung until her walks and playing. I live close to a park and to a trail which I walk to daily. I live in a peaceful area and my back yard is a bird haven. I have plenty of time, room, and love for your pet. I have taken care of friends, neighbors, and relatives pets for many years up north, and now I am ready to be your pets friend in the south. My house is set up to have plenty of room for any size dog. We are always outside and I live very close to a park.

Carrie was wonderful. She kept us updated with texts and pictures and our pups were happy and tired when we got back. Will definitely book again if she’s able to!
