About Caroline

Experience: 2 yrs

Big time dog lover, fourth year film student, passionate about connecting with and building bonds with animals. Lots of experience taking care of other people's dogs through walking and boarding, as well as experience taking care of family dogs (of all sizes), most recently, Ruby the great Dane. We took Ruby in as a foster originally, but fell in love and adopted her a couple months in. Ruby suffers from pretty severe anxiety and a skin condition, both of which she is on medication for. She had been given up by three different families before us, so she also had severe abandonment issues. Taking care of Ruby during the work day and overnight when my mother could not, I have experience in maintaining a schedule with feeding, play, medication, and mental stimulation. I'm now back in Chicago and would love the opportunity to continue this type of work as it is incredibly rewarding for me. There's not much I love in this world more than pups, they inspire me to be a nicer human.
