Information Carly D. would like to know about your pet

Do they like other animals, favorite toys, how friendly are they with strangers, and general diet. Pets can be fickle and it’s important to know their habits.

A typical day

Play with teaser toys and make sure they get some TLC! As someone with their own cat who is often left alone, it’s important they get some extra attention when owners are away and make sure they feel comfortable.

Carly is amazing! She is reliable, and even in a snow storm was consistent in showing up and spending the time she was scheduled for to take care of our two cats. She also has a way with animals- our older cat does not like most people, especially when I am not home. After a few visits, Carly managed to get Bella to warm up to her and by the end of the week, Bella was her full social and sassy self with Carly. Our younger boy, who is more social but can also be timid with new people, loves her and would immediately want to play and cuddle her. Highly recommended her services and we are so grateful to have such a dedicated sitter for any times we need to leave our babies, knowing they will be loved and cared for in our absence. Thank you Carly!

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.
