Hi there! I've dog sat and dog walked many times over the years, and I am here to care for your pet! This includes feeding them, letting them outside to go potty, giving them any medications taken, going for walks with them, playing with them, and sitting/walking. My pay structure varies based on the length of the shift.

Ben H. says "Caroline has been a fantastic baby and dog sitter for us, our go-to! Sweet, caring and very reliable."
