I recently finished OT school, so I'm in between that and starting my next job, which means my schedule is wide open right now. I can offer flexible timing throughout the day and give your pet plenty of consistent, unhurried attention.

Handing over your house key and your pet isn't a small thing, so I try to be someone you don't have to worry about while you're gone. That means being consistent, sending updates, paying attention to your pet's needs, and treating your home with the same care I'd want for my own!

Pet care experience

I grew up with and around dogs, so I'm really comfortable around them no matter their age or personality. I've also dog/house sat for family friends numerous times (sometimes for two weeks or more), so I'm experienced with keeping feeding schedules, medications, and routines consistent while owners are away. I'm also active and love going on walks, so if yours needs extra exercise, that's something I genuinely enjoy providing!

Cara is very personable and professional. She has already made our lives so much easier by being someone we can count on to take care of our dogs! She takes great pictures of them too.

Cara is the best! She has been helping our family for the last 5 years with our mini Aussie and we are so grateful for her. She cares so much about the well being of our pup and makes sure that he’s getting all the exercise and attention he needs. She has done several overnight stays in our home and always leaves the space clean and sometimes even better than she found it. She has administered medication for our dog and ensures that he keeps his routine. She’s always happy to play fetch, go for a walk, or just love on our dog as much as he needs! I cannot recommend Cara enough!

Cara has cared for our dog, Stella, many times—from daytime visits to overnight stays. Stella is a senior with multiple health issues and requires numerous medications, so trust is essential. Cara not only meets Stella’s basic needs but also plays with her, gives her plenty of love and attention, and ensures every medication is administered correctly. The best compliment I can give is that Stella looks healthier and happier when we get home. It’s a huge relief knowing our “baby” is in such caring, capable hands. If you’re looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and exceptional with pets, I wholeheartedly recommend Cara!

Cara is amazing - she treats my dog like a member of her family. She has done both over night pet sitting as well as daytime pet sitting for me. She is responsible, kind and honest. I highly recommend Cara to help you with your pets. She is the best!
