Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced yard that is super dog friendly, and I have a separate area of the house with access to the backyard, so we can block off that part of the house depending on the situation. Our house is a ranch level, with 2 backdoors, so lots of options (one door has 1 step up in, and the other has 4 steps). We have harnesses and extra leashes if something happens we can use our own; filtered water via a pet fountain. We have two cat trees/towers inside, and a small catio. We're 10 minutes from a pet hospital and know pet CPR. We give our pets free roaming, but will adapt as the situation dictates.

Information Cary & Brian C. would like to know about your pet

I am happy to accommodate any special needs or behaviors your loved one may have, just let me know and we will be sure to make their stay or visit a positive one!

A typical day

I walk or hike everyday in the morning, this includes: Orcutt Hills (I know all the trails), Black Oak Loops and adjoining trails, Avila dog beach, Waller Park, Pioneer Park, Orcutt Community Park, Lompoc Mission, Ocean Park, Bob Jones, Johnson Ranch and more! I walk my dog everyday all over the place and take him with me everywhere! My goal is to do at least 2-3 miles in the morning and then most evenings we go to the dog park or beach. At home we have a large yard, lots of balls and toys, inside there's plenty of room and multiple dog beds. We are super animal friendly house.

Experienced Life Long Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I have had cats my whole life and have had dogs for most of my adult life. I've owned/dealt with all types of dogs-from Rottweilers to Pugs. Currently we have 1 dog and 2 cats. We had a husky/lab mix for over 15 years, so I also have experience with senior pets, and I used to raise puppies (for a short time), so I am very well rounded. My husband and I own our company, so I make my own schedule, which gives me the freedom to care for your loved ones at all times. I love all animals!

Cary did a great job with my kitty, Belle. I came home to a happy cat, no problems at all. Thank you for taking such good care of my kitty.

Cary was wonderful to work with and took good care of our shy cat - even got her to come out for pets! We appreciated how flexible and responsive Cary was.

Cary thanks so much for taking care of Birdie. Can’t remember when I’ve seen her look so relaxed and happy in photos!
