I hold a Global Trusted Traveler card, which required an application, police/background check, personal interview and finger printing. I am now happily retired from being a manager in Corporate America. both the US and Canada. I have been fortunate to do some international traveling and have been a volunteer in several animal focused organizations. I volunteered at, then became an employee of, the Phoenix Zoo in their visitor enhancement and education department, just because I loved being around the animals. Now I'd like the opportunity to combine the pleasure of traveling with my passion for caring for animals.
Why I want to house sit
I can't think of a more enjoyable and rewarding way to invest my time than looking after a home and a pet, while at the same time discovering and becoming familiar with a new community.
My experience
When I downsized and sold a larger home, the realtor's ad said "Ms. Clean lives here" demonstrating I understand pride of ownership and will look after your home as if it were my own. I have previously been a parent to a cat, Tinsel, a dog, Elsa, parakeets, Sky, Meadow, Sunshine, Storm, and Cloud and guinea pigs Virginia. Betsy, and Alice. I will give your pet(s) the same loving care I gave all of mine.

Carolyn is a wonderful sitter. She took great care of our furry kids and the house was clean beyond description. The kitties all got their medicine and Carolyn kept us updated via email all through our trip. You can't do any better than Carolyn if you're looking for a well organized, detail oriented, super care-giver for your furry kids and sitter for your house. Thank you Carolyn. - John and Stephanie

Unfortunately, we can't leave 10 stars, so 5 will have to do. They were kind and helpful and marvelous sitters.

Unfortunately, we can't leave 10 stars, so 5 will have to do. They were kind and helpful and marvelous sitters. The house was more immaculate then when we left it, we are pretty sure the cat was in mourning when they left, and they even completed a minor handyman repair and left us a treat. Can't say enough could things. Our home will always be open for them!

Simply put, Carolyn is an exceptional pet sitter and person -- if you get the chance to have her look after your pets, you should leap! She went above and beyond the call of duty in looking after our black lab and also took great care of our home during our 10 days away.

From the moment I first spoke with her, I knew that Carolyn is a wonderful person. She is kind and friendly and takes the responsibility of looking after pets seriously. Carolyn sent us a few updates and photos of Chico while we were away, which we really appreciated. When our flights were delayed on the way home, Carolyn insisted on staying until she knew we had landed and would definitely be home soon. The fact that she changed her plans and waited an additional 8 hours was such a relief to us and speaks volumes about her commitment.
We arrived home to our house in better condition than when we had left and a calm, happy dog.
We would have Carolyn back anytime and I have no hesitation in highly recommending Carolyn.- Organised
