    Meet and Greet:   Prior to your initial service we will schedule a complimentary meet and greet.  This visit takes about 30 minutes and will allow us time to get to know one other. If during this visit you decide to schedule service, we can complete any unfinished paperwork and review what services you are interested in reserving for your pet.   Please have 2 house keys handy and information regarding any home security system.
      The Pet and Client Information form can be found on our website. It is very helpful if this form is filled out in advance of your appointment.  I will bring other paperwork to the appointment to include a key handling agreement, a veterinary release agreement and a care contract.  If you would like to have these documents in advance of this meeting they can be downloaded from the main website.  Payment: Payment for the initial reservation is collected at the meet and greet. 
    Payment for established clients is collected prior to or at the time of service. 
    Currently we accept cash and checks.

    - Client Testimonials -


    Carolyn has been caring for our pups Penny and Tess for several years now. We couldn't be more pleased with her services or more grateful for her dependability and trustworthiness. Carolyn truly cares about the health and happiness of the pets she cares for and has really gotten to know our pups' personalities, likes, and dislikes. She keeps us humans informed with her daily visit log, observation notes, and texts, which we greatly appreciate. Our pups love her too! We can't recommend Carolyn highly enough for anyone considering her to care for their furry loved ones.
    Steve & Cassandra, NE Grand Rapids

    Carolyn has been an absolute blessing! She is prompt, reliable, trustworthy and will update me on how Bandit is doing after her walk. I have tried many dog daycares and other walking services prior to finding Carolyn and her services are far superior!! We greatly appreciate her! I highly recommend Carolyn’s Pampered Pets!
    Leah, NE Grand Rapids

    I found Carolyn's Pampered Pets via the internet. I was looking for someone who was caring, trustworthy, and most importantly someone my pets liked! I was on a hunt for the very best. Previously being a professional petsitter myself, I had some very high expectations, all of which Carolyn has lived up to. My dog and cat love having Carolyn over! It's a real treat for them. All kinds of spoiled going on from treats to belly rubs:) I highly recommend Carolyn's Pampered Pets for the care of your fur babies! Very responsible and reliable! Thanks Carolyn!!
    Ashlie - Grand Rapids

    I never realized how much I needed a dog walking service until I tried it. Buster is so much calmer and happier on the days that Carolyn visits. It's great because he gets a break and some exercise, but the rest of the time he can relax in the comfort of our home. And Carolyn is fantastic! She's completely reliable, well organized and professional. Buster adores her. And I love that she sends me pictures of Buster when she visits. Highly, highly recommend!

    Carolyn helped us out with our pet care needs over the holidays and we are so grateful to have found her. She is a true professional who goes above and beyond in her care of our pets. We knew at our meet and greet that we could trust her with our dog and our cat. She asks detailed and thorough questions about their health and routines. While we were away from home, she checked in with us as frequently as we liked with photo updates for our peace of mind. Thank you Carolyn!
    Betsy and Keith V – North Park, Grand Rapids

    Carolyn was my favorite vet tech here in Ohio. She would be a dream come true pet sitter!
    Georgetta D. – Columbus, OH

    Carolyn will take wonderful care of your 4 legged friends!
    Dan B. – Columbus, OH

    We are both medical professionals and often work long hours in the hospital. We moved from downtown Grand Rapids almost 2 years ago and in doing so, we were in search of someone to care for our energetic Siberian Husky puppy, Luna. When it comes to our “fur-babies”, they are our family and we have high expectations for their care. It can be stressful finding someone you trust to come into your home by themselves to take care of members of your family, however we could not have been luckier to have found Carolyn as she continuously exceeds those expectations.
    From after-hours assistance when Luna locked us out of our new house (before we had a spare key made), to welcoming an additional puppy to care for with excitement, to the countless times of going above and beyond in a multitude of ways to ensure the safety and health of our fur-babies; Carolyn is truly a blessing. For example, out of the goodness of her heart, Carolyn took time out of her personal schedule and extended her visit to ensure the well-being of our new puppy when she appeared to be under the weather.
    Carolyn has been taking care of our two dogs for several years now and we wouldn't want anyone else! Carolyn has allowed us to leave our home knowing without doubt that our dogs are going to receive the exceptional care, exercise, love, and attention they deserve. Carolyn is not only trustworthy – she is also a professional who showcases outstanding communication skills. If you're looking for someone to take care of your furrier members of the family, stop now, Carolyn is the perfect person for the job.
