Pet care experience

I had a dog growing up, but it wasn't until my husband and I decided to test run parenting with our first dog , Jester, the lab. He brought so much joy into our life and into our daughters and son lives for 14 years. Our first year proved our destiny as dog people and we have added numerous dogs into our home permanent and short-term. We recently rescued an English Bulldog and have been dogsitting for family and friends over the past few years. We sit for dogs big and small (personality and body size), and twenty plus years of experience taking care of dogs, not just in the day-to-day, but also in medical emergencies and administering medicine. I can really say I have seen it all.

I have used Carrie now for a couple of years to watch and take care of my senior dog Elvis. Each time she would meet with me a few days prior and go over the special nuances and possible needs of my dog. She is an experienced dog sitter and a dog owner herself, so she is always very sensitive to my dogs needs and can certainly empathize with every dog owner. She has always come to my house for a few days and stayed overnight, but I know she also takes dogs at her own home depending on the situational needs of her clients. She keeps my dog company, and I am always impressed when I return to see my dog happy and content with minimal disruption to his daily routine. I would definitely recommend Carrie for your pet sitting needs as she is experienced and responsible, with a kind soul that would surely calm your nerves about leaving your furbaby with a sitter!

Carrie has been a dog sitter for my little Border Terrier, Seamus, several times during my extended business trips. Seamus absolutely loves Carrie and it’s obvious that she loves Seamus too! He’s an elderly dog, 14 years old and Carrie treats him kindly and gently. I appreciate the care and attention that Carrie gives to Seamus: she is conscientious in giving him his medications, seeing to his food and water, walking him and showing him such love and affection. I heartily recommend Carrie as an outstanding dog sitter!

Carrie has watched our dog on several occasions and we love her. She is extremely accommodating and shows a high level of responsibility and professionalism. She provides a warm, welcoming and caring environment for the pets she watches and my dog loves going to her house. She always makes sure we know what is happening with him by providing us with updates and she is always quick to answer our questions or address our concerns. I would highly recommend Carrie to watch your pet.

Carrie took amazing care of my dog when we went away out is state. I knew she would love him like he was her own baby! I’d trust her with my infant human - so for sure I would trust her with my pets. Not only is she an excellent dog sitter, she is an exemplary human being; kind, caring, responsible and FUN!!

Information Carrie W. would like to know about your pet

I do not have an breed preferences. I would ask to know a little about the pup's personality and what their specific needs are. Specifically what their exercise needs are, any specific dietary needs or any specific rituals or habits your dog has been accustomed to. Again, we've see it all with big dogs, little dogs, charismatic dogs, quiet dogs, needy dogs and easy-going dogs.

A typical day

We have a beautiful and big neighborhood perfect for walks. We also have a community trail less than a mile away for a pup that require longer walks. I've been known to love to cuddle, give a great belly rub, be an excellent fetch partner and lead great adventures through the woods in our back yard. When it comes down to it, I really just want to make your pup happy and meet their needs.
