I work part-time outside of the home (usually about 4 hrs per day M-F) and love the energy that dogs bring when I walk through the door at home. We have a fenced yard and love going for walks.

Information Carrie Y. would like to know about your pet

We will love all over a dog that is comfortable around our easy going and responsible teens, won't eat our furniture or our shoes! Let us know how we can best prepare and we will do our best to make your pets stay as stress-free as possible.

A typical day

We love snuggling on the couch and also enticing your pups to show us their tricks. We plan on two walks per day. Tell us your dog's schedule and we'll do our best to match it! If your buddy brings a toy we'll make sure they get some rousing fetch sessions.

Pet care experience

Our family would love to spend time with your dog! We had a Shitzu Llaso Apso for 15 yrs, but he passed away in 2021. We haven't been quite ready to adopt another dog but he still left a serious hole. We'd be ever so grateful for you to lend us your pup to soak up our attention! We'll take your instructions seriously and make sure your dog is happy and loved. Dogs under 40 lbs are the best fit for our space and we limit our pup sitting capacity to three pets from the same household at a time. I also must note that I work outside of the home 20 hrs a week, but only for 4 hours during any single day. I have two kids (13 & 15) who have been to the "PET" (Pet Education Training) class at OMSI summer camp and are serious about treating your dog well. We love to play at the park and go for neighborhood walks! Or just hang out in our fenced yard if that's your buddy’s speed. Reach out, we'd love to meet you and your pup fur-real!

Carrie and her family took wonderful care of our pup, Pippi! Pippi seemed very happy and comfortable, and Carrie sent lots of photos to keep us updated. We'd love to have Carrie watch Pippi again!

Wow! Carrie did an amazing job watching our two small dogs while we were away. She was communicative, reliable, and clearly cared for them. We received updates throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind, and our dogs came home happy and well cared for. We would absolutely book with Carrie again and highly recommend her to anyone!
