Check your calendar invitation

Your confirmed booking should include the host, date, time zone and online link or onsite address. Accept the invitation in Google Calendar, Outlook, Apple Calendar or the calendar app you use.

If your email app offers an .ics attachment, open it in your calendar. Check the imported time and reminders. Your calendar settings determine which notifications you receive.

If the invitation is missing or the time looks wrong, contact your host before the appointment.

Dog coaching with Carolyn

Choose a quiet place and keep your usual walking equipment nearby. For an online session, test the camera and sound, charge your device, and arrange a stable view. Let Carolyn know about pain, recent changes, bite history or handling concerns before any practice.

For onsite visits, confirm the address and arrival instructions. Secure other pets and clear a comfortable working space. You do not need to make your dog perform or demonstrate a difficult behavior for the appointment.
