Carolyn

Some volunteers lend a hand. Some leave a mark on a rescue forever. 💜

This month, we are so excited to recognize Carolyn as our Volunteer of the Month!

Carolyn joined Pitt Friends in 2019, but caring for animals has been a part of her life for much longer than that. And over the years, there really isn’t much she hasn’t done.

She has fostered full litters and single pups, tiny puppies and sweet seniors. She has nursed sick puppies back to health, loved dogs through their hardest days, and opened her home to fosters who waited not weeks or months, but years to finally find their forever families.

And Carolyn doesn't just foster ,she makes every dog who lands in her care feel like they hit the jackpot. Her lap is rarely empty, her pups are spoiled absolutely rotten, and she even makes her own enrichment toys to keep them busy and happy.

Oh, and did we mention the homemade treats? The dogs get them... and thankfully, so do the humans. 😂

Carolyn is one of those people who quietly pours her heart, time, creativity, and love into the animals around her without ever needing recognition for it.

But this month, we're giving her some anyway.

Because after all the dogs she's loved, healed, spoiled, waited with, and eventually watched leave for their forever homes, Carolyn deserves her turn in the spotlight. 💜🐾

Carolyn is someone I look up to and want to be when I grow up. The way she manages her pack and fosters is amazing. If you visit her you can't help but feel at home and just sit and chat! She truly loves dogs and people and is such a beautiful person inside and out.
