Pet care experience

From social work to caring for pets

I recently left a 16 year career where I grew from caseworker to supervisor to manager. I decided to pursue opportunities to care for animals, as animals are my true passion. I grew up on a small farm where we had cows, horses, pigs, chickens, dogs, cats, canaries and hamsters. I have always loved animals and enjoy caring for them. I look forward to caring for your beloved pets.

Not only did Cara take care of my girls, but she also kept the house super clean. That means so much, especially having no idea what you are going to come home to. Highly recommend Cara! Excellent communication and updates throughout the booking as well which is much appreciated.

Cara was fantastic with my girls and they absolutely loved her. Cara went above and beyond to ensure her services were of perfection. Not only did she take care of my girls, she also took care of my house which is a huge peace of mind. I messed up the booking by several days, l actually needed it the day l sent it. Cara looked passed my mistake and responded minutes later. That to me is priceless.

Cara is a wonderful human with a huge heart. She is upbeat, calm, and understanding. Cara owns 3 dogs, 2 cats, and a bearded dragon named Lizzie who all adore her. She is happiest in life when surrounded by pets and her loved ones and will always shower your pets with the same love while in her care.

I can't recommend Cara highly enough! She is incredibly kind, compassionate, and genuinely loves animals, and it shows in the way she cares for every pet. From the very beginning, Cara is reliable, professional, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with, giving me complete peace of mind while I was away. My furry babies were happy, well cared for, and love Cara!
