“Thank you again for all the attention you gave Molly. We hope to arrange sitting time with you again in the future! We felt very comfortable leaving her with you. She was in good hands!”
About: I’ve been helping care for two of my friends dogs for about 6 years. I’ve been trusted me to walk, feed, and occasionally bathe their pets. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and types, and I always do my best to follow their routines. Although I don’t have as much experience caring for cats and I’m always respectful of their space and take care of feeding, litter boxes, and playtime if they’re up for it.. I will do everything I can to make sure your pet is comfortable and happy. I am available all times of the day besides at night when I have soccer practice twice a week, so the pet will be kept on their normal schedule. I am an active person and enjoy taking the pet outside or on a walk if needed.
About: Hello! My name is Kara, and while I am new to Rover, I'm certainly looking forward to putting my extensive animal care experience to good use! I currently own two cats named Ernie and Fern, and I hope to one day add some more friends to our family. Nearly every job I've had involved the care of animals, from my first job at a doggy daycare, to a few summers spent working at a veterinary clinic, a challenging but rewarding period of time at an animal shelter, and my most recent work at a dairy farm! Even as a child, several neighbors trusted me enough to ask that I care for their pets while they were out of town. Through all of this, I developed the ability to understand the individual needs of each animal and to work toward meeting those needs. Whether your furry friends love long walks, playtime in the yard, or just hanging out on the sofa, I would love to help out! I'm available for drop-in visits or more extensive stays as well. I just moved to Saratoga with my husband, so I'm looking for some meaningful work to start off my time here. My schedule is relatively open, so I can make time for most types of care routines. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! I am available for a wide range of in-home services. Due to having two cats of my own, I unfortunately cannot have other animals stay at my house. However, I can stay for any length of time with your pets, depending on their needs. Please let me know if your pets require any special assistance/services, and I will do my best to accommodate. I would also be happy to stop by before the scheduled care days to get to know you and your furry friends!
“Justin was really great with our senior dog, Jackson. Jackson is anxious and hesitant and Justin knew just how to make him comfortable quickly. Justin is really friendly, knowledgeable and patient. I instantly felt comfortable with him. Thanks so much! Jackson is looking forward to his next walk! ?”
About: I grew up on a ranch in Vail Arizona and I have extensive experience in caring for animals of all breeds and species! I have two cats and two rescue dogs (chihuahua and border collie) along with one snake and a bearded dragon. I understand that our pets are our family—often feeling like our own children—and I carry this sentiment with me when I care for other’s pets as well. I’m a part-time substitute teacher (I used to teach English in New Orleans before taking a break!) and I have a flexible schedule with summers and holidays off. I have a fenced yard and I welcome pets who get along with cats into my home. My two dogs can stay with my sister (who is a vet tech and only a call away) if there’s ever an issue with dogs who may not like to share space with other dogs. When caring for a pet in your home I appreciate detailed information and I will never hesitate to reach out if I am curious or confused. If ever an emergency occurs and I cannot get ahold of you my judgment as both a mother, an educator and a pet owner will dictate my actions.
“I am so relieved to hear how well he did! I forgot to tell you that he typically just pees on his walks. Good to have a bag ready anyway I’m assuming he buried his head in The snow and trolled through it like a mole? The one pic with snow all over his face is hysterical. I’ll be sure to book for Wednesday and Friday. The garage door code is 4003. It is the pad on the left when looking at the garage from the driveway. His leash is hanging right where you left it. Please do me a favor next time and remove his big collar too he’s done. Because he has so much hair it tends to get knotted up when he wears his collar too much. Thank you!!”
About: 20 plus years experienced caretaker. I've rescued, fostered and adopted senior pets, pregnant mamas, puppies and the like. I have experience with walks, overnights, administering meds, wound care and of course snuggles. I work a pretty flexible part time schedule of afternoon and early evening hours a few days a week that allows me to schedule visits as needed to accommodate your pets schedule. However I am instructed to do so by the owner. In my home, I have a fenced in yard, there is also a dog park in the community. I have animal crates if needed. Large and small depending upon what is needed. I also have a silly dog of my own at home as a companion.

Lauren H.
“It’s not easy to put your pets life in the hands of someone you don’t know. My wife and I adopted our cocker spaniel, Anikan, at the beginning of this year. At the time, my wife was working remotely and had the flexibility to take Anikan out for walks throughout the day. To our fortune, my wife was promoted; but with that promotion came an in-person work responsibility. With me already working in-person 5 days a week, the problem arose of who will take care of our Anikan while we are at work. A family friend of ours introduced us to Lauren. We were very nervous at first leaving Anikan with someone we hardly knew. However, Lauren made us feel comfortable and assured us that there was nothing to worry about. She showed her experience with pets and the responsibility it takes to take care of someone else’s loved one. Lauren has been walking Anikan for the last 2 months and has become another part of the family to us. She is loving, caring, and has the positive mindset to always do what’s right. I trust that Lauren will make anyone else feel safe to trust her with your loved ones as she has done for us.”
