A typical day

For dogs, I’ll take them out as much as I can. Not only because they need it, I also love to go outside and walk in beautiful SoCal! I’ll play balls catching with them, run with them, talk to them 😃 For cats, I’ll give them space. If they love to be close with me, I’m all for it!

Calm, patient in-home care for pets

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Carrie — I provide calm, reliable in-home care for cats and dogs, especially great for older or sensitive pets. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and I always follow pet routines carefully. I send daily photo or video updates so you can travel with peace of mind. I’ve cared for animals my entire life and currently share my home with two cats. In the past, I raised two dogs, and all of my dogs and cats were lovingly cared for by me from puppyhood or kittenhood. I naturally connect with animals and treat them as family, offering patience, affection, and attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs.

Carrie took my dog on a walk and took excellent care of him. I could see that he really enjoyed his time with her. Thank you Carrie!

Andre S., 3.Feb 2026 If the wellbeing of your pet is dear to you, Carrie is your pet sitter of choice. She's got a real big heart for animals. No dog or cat that she discovers in the neighborhood can escape a few good cuddles. Her two cats Huhu and Lulu (who I am a personal friend with) are lovely and seeing Carrie looking after them is just heart-warming. I gladly recommend Carrie as capable and skilled pet sitter.

If you’re looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, I’d definitely recommend Carrie! She was attentive, easy to communicate with, and made sure everything went smoothly. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands.
