Pet care experience

Tell your dog we said hi!

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. Every dog is different, and some need a little more hands-on care than others! My listed rate covers typical care needs, while dogs with specialized feeding routines, frequent medications or extra potty breaks may have a slightly higher rate based on the care involved. I’m happy to talk through your dog’s routine to make sure we’re a good fit! Reach out, we'd love to meet you and your pup fur-real!

Carrie was able to watch our dog at her home in short notice, and both our dog and us were very happy. Carrie seems very knowledgeable with dogs and her set up is great!

Carrie was an absolute lifesaver! We needed a last-minute Rover booking after realizing our Chippy was having a tough time on our road trip, and she was incredibly flexible and accommodating. She kept us updated with lots of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. You can truly tell that Carrie loves dogs and treats them like her own. We are so grateful for her willingness to help us on such short notice. We would absolutely book with her again the next time we’re in the Portland area. Highly recommend!

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!

Schedule

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.

Safety, trust & environment

We have experience with dogs of all ages, though we aren't taking puppies, or dogs that experience incontinence, at the moment. If you have any questions just text/call us at anytime during your dogs stay.

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.
