About: Passionate about pups and four years experienced in professional dog sitting. I've grown up surrounded by dogs and genuinely love connecting with every personality. I'm here to offer reliable, attentive care that ensures your dog feels comfortable, happy, and right at home, whether that be at mine or yours. I have experience with dogs of all ages and am able to accommodate! I'm available for full-day care on Mondays and Fridays (my work-from-home days). On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I can offer early morning (before 8 AM) and evening (after 5 PM) availability. Most weekends are also open for bookings. I'm flexible to provide care in the setting that best suits your pet! If they're staying with me, my apartment offers direct access to a dog run and plenty of nearby parks. If I'm caring for your pet in your own home, I'll follow their established routine, ensuring they receive consistent, loving attention in their familiar environment. Either way, their well-being and happiness are my top priority

“Tivo had an amazing stay with Caroline and Honey. She had in info form to fill out ahead of time and we did a meet and greet with the dogs, so I felt super comfortable leaving Tivo with her. Caroline is so professional and easy to work with, and it’s very clear she is dedicated to taking great care of the pets she watches. She even made a paw print Christmas ornament with Tivo since she was watching him over the holidays. Cannot recommend her highly enough!”
