Pet care experience

Hey I’m Carolina / Dog lover 🐾

I’ve taken care of dogs for five years. Family, friends and neighbors have relied on me to play, feed and walk their pets. I’m also very Loving with pets so I like spending quality time with them, hugging and showing them affection. Just in case it’s okay and the owners like it. With baby pets I’ve given them some training such as sitting, shaking their paws, rolling over, among others.

The best dog sitters! My dog has stayed with them numerous of times and has the best time. He always seems extremely comfortable and happy to be there which is a big deal bc he’s very picky about who he likes and spends time with. Carolina and her husband are the best team, from sending pictures and keeping me updated, to focusing on judo’s care which sometimes includes an upset stomach. They have made my traveling so much easier because I don’t have to worry about my boy.

Zulma is an excellent caregiver! She took excellent care of my dog and followed all of my care instructions perfectly. Zulma is very responsive, personable, communicative, and very easy to work with. I would not hesitate to book with her again.

Zulma has boarded our dog Sally twice now for over one week each time. She has gone out of her way to take care of Sally, making her feel at home while we were away. Her communication is top notch and she is always responsive and timely. Also I can tell Sally loves her! The piece of mind I feel while Sally is staying with her is well worth the price. I Highly recommend her.

Zulma is an amazing human. She is incredibly kind and thoughtful. Our pup enjoyed his time with Zulma so much. Zulma shared photos with us every day of our pup and her hanging out. She left our home even cleaner than we left it. When Zulma watches our pup we do not have to worry about anything.

Zulma was amazing! This was my first experience with Rover/overnight boarding and she eased all my troubles! She was able to make Dakota and I comfortable with this new experience. She sent pictures throughout the whole time, and updates on how Dakota was acclimating! 10/10 experience.

Schedule

I’m fully available at home to care for your pets whether that means feeding or cuddling them. I can take them out for walks daily, ensuring they get fresh air and exercise. I’m also happy to play with them to have some quality time with their favorite toys. I’m also happy to send you daily updates, including photos and notes, so you know your pets are in great hands. Additionally, I can train simple habits, such as sitting, staying, or walking on a leash.

I’ll make sure your pets have an amazing time: long walks or “sniffari” adventures for exploring, lively games like fetch, tug‑of‑war, and treat hide‑and‑seek, plus cozy chill sessions with belly rubs, soft music, or even a doggie movie.
