Pet care experience

More dogs? Yes please!

Having dogs my entire life has granted me the luxury of being comfortable with dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds. Currently, my mother and I are sharing custody of a rescue mutt. I'm also the go to dog sitter for my brother's pit bull terroir & lab. Just like us, our dogs need food, water, exercise and lots of love! I am happy to assist you with all of this and more. Including giving pet medications from pills to insulin. Open to discussing other needs not listed here!

Carina was amazing! She watched Oliver for the day on super short notice and was so great with him. She sent pictures and updates throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Oliver seemed so happy and well taken care of. I would definitely have Carina watch Oliver again and highly recommend her!

Carina is a lovely responsible young woman. She is timely, communicates well with updates and pictures and left the house in perfect condition. She met my neighbor after my pup Libby wandered “thru” the fence to their yard and reacted immediately and apologetically to my neighbor. They also told me they were super impressed with her and were so happy to meet Carina! I hope she is free to watch Libby again in the near future!

We had a wonderful experience with Carina as our dog sitter! This was the first time in years we were using a sitter instead of family, so we were a bit nervous about leaving our pups, but Carina took great care of our two goldendoodles at our house. She was a natural with our pups, and when we returned home, they were calm, relaxed, and clearly well-exercised. She made the entire experience seamless and easy. We’ll absolutely be reaching out to her again in the future! :)

Carina was very easy to work with. She even had many of the items in her home already, like toys and food/water bowls. My dog came back super happy after his time with her. And the next time we booked her, he was even more excited to be back. She is very sweet, attentive and caring!

Safety, trust & environment

If you're looking to board, please note that my condo association does not allow for 'large' dogs. There is also a 2 dog max. However, being comfortable with dogs of all sizes, I am sure we can work with my condo limits to meet your needs. If you have a fenced in yard I'm happy to throw a ball around or if your dog loves to destroy plush toys, happy to clean that up too! Hiking is also a personal love of mine and great for high energy pups.

A typical day

Depends on the pet! My family dogs have ranged from extremely active to timid and shy. We can take walks around local ponds (love the All Trails app), hike up mountains, throw a ball around the yard, tug-of-war inside, or even just sit around for some snuggles.

The more information you can give about your pets the better. Are they food motivated? Listen to commands? Any tips & tricks would be great!
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.
