Information Carla D. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for a pet, I like to learn about their daily routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, personality, and any special instructions. I also ask about medications, allergies, medical conditions, behavioral triggers, favorite activities, and emergency contact information. Understanding a pet's individual needs ahead of time helps me provide safe, consistent, and personalized care while keeping them comfortable and reducing stress when their owner is away.

A typical day

A typical day of pet sitting begins with feeding pets according to their schedule and making sure they have fresh water. I spend time taking dogs on walks, providing exercise, playtime, and companionship to keep them happy and engaged. Throughout the day, I monitor their behavior, clean up after them, and administer any medications if needed. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and mental stimulation. For overnight or extended care, I maintain their regular routines as closely as possible, helping them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I provide updates and photos to owners so they can have peace of mind knowing their pets are well cared for.

Carla is always the best. This time we had her watch our newest edition to the family - he’s full of energy and somehow Carla is always a miracle worker. For as long as she pet and house sits, she’ll always be our first choice.

I’ve had Carla sit twice now, and she’s wonderful with my girls. Makes it so much easier to be way when I don’t have to worry.

Carla is our go to for house and pet sitting. Being 5000+ miles away and not having to worry about our spoiled pug or the house has been anxiety saving.

We reached out to Carla for a last minute trip to come check in with our two pups while gone. Carla was quick to respond to our request and quickly set up a date for a meet and greet. We ended up booking Carla and she was excellent! Her communication was great and she consistently kept us updated with how her visits went while sending us pics of our pups. We truly appreciated that. We highly recommend Carla for your pet sitting needs and we will definitely be using her services 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.
