Testimonials

As a concerned dog owner, I would have never considered boarding my dog(s) and after having observed the manner in which Carol interacts with animals, I felt more then confident to leave my dog(s) in her care. Carol has cared for my animals the same way she cares for her own and each time I have left my dog(s), I have found them to be happy and well cared for upon my return. Carol has many years of experience with dogs and has fostered numerous dogs, many of which have had a variety of behavioral and medical problems.

I have had dogs for over 20 years, and I have known Carol Sumbry for over ten years. I highly recommend Carol as a dog sitter. She has watched my dogs on numerous occasions, and she has done a sterling job. Not only do my guys LOVE “Auntie Carol”, I know that they will receive sterling care from her. I do not know anyone who is more dedicated to the safety and well being of the animals under her care.

I have known Carol for quite a few years. We actually met at the dog park in 2002! Carol is the most knowledgeable person about dogs that I know. Not only is Carol knowledgeable about dogs but Carol has a special gift with dogs. She lives and breathes dogs. It is only natural for her to have a pet sitting business that she can share her love of dogs with your dog/dogs. There is no one in this world that I trust more than her to care for my puppy mill survivor. She has special needs and Carol truly understands them. If you are looking for someone special to care for your fur babies Carol is the perfect candidate!
