I'm your dog's "cool aunt"

Pet care experience

Hello again to new and repeat clients alike! My family is going through a bit of a transition period and I am now able to offer dog sitting and drop in services. My husband and I adopted a dog in 2020 and he has communicated that he is not okay with guest dogs coming over, but I can still come to you! We are planning to relocate and I would prefer if your plans would be happening in the next two weeks, but please let me know what you have in mind and I can accommodate. I am not working at the moment and can be available throughout the day for you and your pup's needs!

Cara did such a great job tiring out my very energetic dog! She's communicative and responds quickly, and is flexible, friendly and professional. She was really great in a pinch last minute when I was injured.

Cara is wonderful! She played with our dogs and gave them all the love and snuggles we would give them if we were home. She made us feel at ease while we were out of town. Thank you!

This was my first time booking a Rover sitter, and Cara was fantastic. She was great with communicating.Our dog loved her and he seemed so happy in all the updates she sent us. She took him out on walks and made him a special treat for breakfast. Cara made sure to spoil him so much that I don’t think he noticed we were gone. She was very respectful of our home and left it very clean. She also was great at communicating before and during her stay in our home. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter and will be booking her for our future trips!

I have had several dog sitting clients over the years and my own pups as well. I am very used to tailoring my approach to the dog's individual needs. Do they need to play ball for a full hour in order to sleep at night? Check! Do they need to have someone at home to feel safe? I'm so safe! Do they want to watch a movie before dinner and then be left alone? I'm already popping the popcorn! Let's chat about your dog's and your home's needs and I am sure I can make it happen!

Information Cara A. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the history of the dog. I would be interested in any aggressive behavior, prior history of abuse, unusual triggers or fears, etc. Please let me know what kind of personality they have, if they like children or don't get along with other dogs. Also bring any medication doggo would need.

Currently I am unemployed and can spend as much or as little time as your pup needs me in your home. I was offering boarding services as well but our rescue dog isn't a fan of that arrangement, and out of respect for his space I have decided to exclusively provide dog sitting and drop ins in client's homes. Let me know what works best for your schedule!
