Information Carla F. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs. I always try to ask about behavior on walks, with other dogs, and people so that I can be prepared ahead of time.

A typical day

I love to go on walks and longer hikes if you have dogs that would enjoy that. I enjoy playing fetch or taking dogs to a dog park.

Carla F.'s Neighborhood

I love big dogs!

Pet care experience

I grew up with two large dogs (lab-mix & a hound-great dane mix). I have volunteered with a dog rescue organization and would love to spend more time with dogs. I also housesit while traveling through Trusted Housesitters. I have traveled across the Northwest & Southeast US & around Europe to pet sit for both dogs and cats. I work full-time remotely and can provide visits or walks before and after work, as well as during my lunch hour. I am happy to stay at your house when you're on vacation, and can let your dog(s) out and walk them 3-4 times per day. I am also interested in doing house-sits in your home and can travel greater distances for that.

Carla helped us out with some in-home visits. She is very easy to work with - prompt, professional, good communicator.

Carla took wonderful care of our 3 senior pets, house and plants! We would absolutely have her pet and house sit again.

Carla was very good with Norman and paid extra care and attention to him. I had no worries while traveling and will definitely book her again. Thank you!

Carla took great care of our dogs again! Great communication and was very helpful and flexible- she stayed an extra night with our dogs when our flight got delayed at the last minute. Thanks Carla!

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.
