Pet care experience

Happy furry babies is my goal!

I’ve taken care of pets owned by family and friends for over 10years. Specially experienced taking care of senior dogs and cats (meds, special diet) I’m the person who says hi to any dog walking on the street. I took a training course to help anxious dogs. Be sure I’ll take care of your pet as of my own and will send you many pics. Fresh water bowls, refresh litter boxes, food, plays, treats, you name it.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have a 13yo cocker spaniel and I know how important is to have someone that takes good care of our pets. I don’t do overnight on my place or bring my dog with me when taking care of another pet. I’ll always walk your dog with a leash, pay attention they don’t eat something they shouldn’t eat on the street, give them their meds, fresh bowl of water, play, praise them for being good pets. I’ll send you photos of your pet to keep you updated.

Carla was awesome and I would absolutely have her come back to house sit for my dog Harley. My sitter cancelled on me last minute and Carla jumped in, she was able to schedule a meet and greet within the hour and sit for Harley that weekend. She sent me a ton of updates, and then when I got home my house was super clean and she had left me a little chocolate (SO SWEET)!! Thank you so much Carla for going above and beyond!!

I have known Carla for about 10 years. She has been a caring dog owner during this time. She has also taken care of my cats while we were on vacations. I have observed first hand how kind and gentle she is with both dogs and cats. They are also responsive to her tenderness. I would definitely recommend her to take care of anyone’s pets and I believe being a Rover pet sitter would be a great fit for her natural and intuitive ability with animals.

Carla is an amazing dog caregiver. I have a very anxious dog, but she warmed up to Carla very quickly. She’s very dedicated to making animals feel comfortable, giving the love and attention that they deserve. I could not recommend her enough!

Schedule

I’m near old town Alexandria and while I navigate a career transition (ex federal contractor), I’ll be very happy to take care of your furry babies. I can do overnight stays, or walk them through the day. I love walking and I’ll be happy to take your pup for a walk, play with them, treats, and praise them. I don’t sit on my place as I have a beautiful 13yo cocker spaniel. If you could see my dog, you would know that I’m an animal lover.
