Carla is by far THE BEST dog sitter we have ever had! She loves our babies like they were her own and we can travel with complete peace of mind that our fur babies will be in great hands! She leaves our home clean and ready for us to just enjoy being back with our doggies! 🤩

Karla did a fantastic job with our fur babies and our home. She is an amazing communicator, and she followed all of our instructions to the T. We will absolutely rebook her in the future

We’re so lucky to have such an amazing dog sitter! She’s reliable, kind, and truly treats Winnie like her own. Whether it’s play time, cuddles, or keeping up with her routine, we always know our girl is in the best hands. It’s such a comfort knowing Winnie is so well cared for when we’re away!

We’ve booked with Carla before for just an overnight trip, and she did a fantastic job! This time, our trip was a full week, and she was just as amazing. She took great pictures, kept me updated the entire time, even brought Winnie some toys, and taught her how to shake! On top of that, she kept my house spotless and made sure everything was clean when I got back. I’ll definitely continue booking with her and highly recommend her!

Clear communication is the foundation of a safe and successful sitting experience. Before our visit, please be ready to discuss your pet’s daily routine, dietary requirements, and medical history. Having your emergency contacts and details on their social behavior ready ensures I can provide the highly personalized, secure care your pet deserves.
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.
