Pet care experience

Experienced, Responsible, Reliable!

Hi, I’m Carrie! I provide dependable, low-stress pet care for dogs and cats, and I treat every animal like family. I know how hard it is to leave your pet with someone new, so my goal is to make the experience feel safe, calm, and predictable for both you and your pet.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I try to make every visit feel calm and familiar for your pet. I follow their routine closely, keep their space safe and secure, and pay attention to little changes in behavior so they stay comfortable while you’re away. I’m careful with doors, gates, and leashes, and I treat your home with the same respect I’d want in mine. My goal is for your pet to feel relaxed, cared for, and loved until you return.

Carrie was able to extend her stay with us when we had a family emergency. We appreciate how she was able to help us out so quickly.

House Sitting • May 30, 2026

Carrie stayed with our dog, who has medical issues, for several days. Carrie send updates and pictures of Penny, which allowed us to enjoy our time away without worrying. We came home to a clean house and a happy dog!

House Sitting • Dec 26, 2025

We had an amazing first experience with Carrie who we met through Rover. We were comfortable knowing our 2 dogs and 2 parrots would be cared for well. We were also comfortable having Carrie in our home over the holiday. She sent us picture of our crew and asked good questions about our home. We wanted her to feel comfortable with us too! Couldn’t have asked for a better match!

Boarding • Nov 29, 2023

Loved Carrie watching our dog. Communicated well, gave frequent updates and pictures, and treated him like he was her own. Will definitely use again.

Schedule

I have years of caregiving experience and a naturally patient, attentive style. I’m especially good with pets who need routine, reassurance, or gentle handling. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, long walks, or overnight stays, I follow your instructions closely and keep your pet’s schedule consistent. I’m not currently offering boarding so I can keep my focus on in-home care and individual attention.

Every dog is different, and I like to understand their personality, routines, and safety needs ahead of time. Please let me know if your dog is a runner, tries to escape doors, has anxiety, leash habits, triggers, or special routines. I’m also comfortable caring for dogs with special needs — just tell me what helps them feel safe. The more I know, the calmer and safer visits will be. My goal is to care for your dog exactly the way you would.
