Safety, trust & environment

I am very perceptive to animals' needs and boundaries so that I can create a comfortable and safe environment for the both of us. I understand that having a stranger around can be stressful for a pet, so my goal is to have a positive experience and connect with your pet. I am happy to adopt any rules and routines to ensure a stress-free and smooth visit.

Information Cara G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know what preferences your pet may have, for example, if your pet is shy and takes time to know strangers. I can and will accommodate to you and your pet, so please let me know about any behaviors I should look out for. I have experience working with reactive dogs down to timid cats and I will take the time to meet their needs.

A typical day

I know both dogs and cats require physical and mental stimulation, so I will spend my time to get to know your pet to understand how they best like to play. I love to play fetch and can even come up with games from a simple blanket to mentally stimulate your pet.

Your Pet's Favorite Auntie

Pet care experience

Growing up with all sorts of animals, I believe pets are our family and deserve the same love and respect we show each other. I have a deep-founded love for all animals and would love to meet your fur family! My experience: I have over 10 years of experience caring for animals. I grew up with cats, dogs, rabbits, and hamsters, and have worked around horses since high-school. I currently own a rambunctious cat with medical needs, so I have experience administering pills and oral medication. What you can expect: I understand the unconditional love pet parents have, and I want to be there for you and your pet so you can be assured that your pet will be in the best hands possible. During meet & greets, I take detailed notes to ensure I provide the best care I can during my visits. I have used Rover for my own cat and dog, so I understand the ins and outs of pet-sitting as both a sitter and owner. Under my care, I will provide your pet with my undivided attention and fill out detailed cards outlining our activities.

Cara was so sweet with our pitbull dogs. They loved her. She is very neat and tidy and respected our house when we were gone. She even asked about if there was special precautions for our dogs during the rainstorms we had. Very intuitive.

Cara did a great job of taking care of our senior cat. She was detailed and communicative in preforming all the tasks. Will definitely ask her back again.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
