Pet care experience

Pet lover, trustworthy, fenced yard

Hi, I’m Carly! I have been caring for pets for over 13 years. My journey of caring for animals began with helping family, friends, and neighbors care for their fur babies, and I started offering pet care through Rover in 2024. I’ve always known I wanted to work with animals—they have truly been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember! I absolutely love what I do and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and needs. I have lots of experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, from Chihuahuas to St. Bernards! I also have experience caring for senior and special-needs dogs who may require extra attention or medication. I have cat care experience as well. You can view more details in the “Cat Care Experience” section on my profile! I offer boarding and daycare in my home for dogs, drop-in visits to your home (depending on your location) for dogs and cats, dog walking, and loving, personalized care for your fur baby I would love the opportunity to care for your fur baby and provide them with the same love and care I would give my own!

Carly was an excellent choice for our dog Sandy. Carly provided pictures and updates daily which put our minds at ease during our vacation. We had previously used boarding kennel businesses which were loud and smelly. Sandy seemed so much more at ease with Carly and seemed to be right at home there. It was a very positive experience and we will definitely use Carly's pet sitting service again.

Carly was wonderful! She sent updates and asked questions and checked in periodically throughout the stay. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog with her and would recommend booking with her if you need a sitter! Thank you Carly!!!!!

This was our first time using Rover. We were looking for someone to care for our senior Bassett (Lucy) for two weeks. After reading about Carly I felt like she would be the perfect caretaker and I was right! Carly was so kind and sweet when we went to have our meet and greet. She has a large beautiful and secure backyard. Carly made our holidays even better by sending us pictures and updates about how Lucy was doing great throughout the time we were away. She was also quick to respond when I reached out to her. We are so happy to have had the pleasure of meeting Carly and blessed to have someone so sweet and caring to take care of our girl while we were away. We will definitely book with Carly again in the future. Thank you so much Carly 💓

Carly, her son Ryan, & their dog Jasper recently welcomed my puppy into their home while we went out of town. They were so warm, kind, and even allowed us a "meet & greet" before his stay. This was the first time my husband & I left our 10 month old Bernedoodle puppy with anyone else, so I was a little nervous. Carly really put us at ease, sharing messages & pics each day to ensure he was well-acclimated & happy. She's very experienced, accommodating, trustworthy, and exceptionally caring w/ a clean, well-organized home, ample crates for sleep, and a large, fenced backyard for safe puppy play. We're so grateful for Carly and her beautiful family and feel so blessed to have found her on ROVER. Dooley really enjoyed his stay, and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her Pet-Sitting Service...I'm confident you'll feel just as pleased as we are! Thank You

Carly was such a blessing for our boy. He's very clingy and needs to be around someone, so traditional boarding where he's left alone for around 12 hours wasn't doing him well when we went on trips. With Carly he was able to have company and we were able to have peace of mind that he wasn't lonely and frequent updates on him as well!

Schedule

Pet sitting is my full-time job, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be home with your fur baby for most of the day, providing plenty of attention, care, and supervision throughout their stay. My schedule also allows me to provide drop-in visits and dog walking for pets in their own homes and neighborhoods.

Safety, trust & environment

At my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where your fur baby can feel right at home! I share my home with my small male Morkie, my husband, and our 4-year-old son, who absolutely loves dogs and enjoys playing with them! I’m trustworthy, dependable, and I take pride in keeping my word. I’m also happy to send regular updates and pictures throughout your pet’s stay or visit, as much as you’d like! I have a large, securely fenced-in backyard where the doggies will have plenty of room to run, play, and get some exercise, with constant supervision whenever they’re outside. I also have a spare room set up just for the doggies, with two large/extra-large crates available. Dogs who are crate trained are welcome to comfortably stay in their crates at night or when I need to step out briefly. If your dog is not crate trained, that’s perfectly okay! They’re welcome to sleep wherever they feel comfortable at night, including on my furniture, and free roam throughout my home while I’m away, as long as they are fully house trained and comfortable being left unsupervised. My doggie loves making new doggie friends! He can sometimes take a little time to warm up because he gets scared easily, but he enjoys having other dogs around once he feels comfortable. To help ensure the safety and well-being of my dog and all visiting dogs, he is up to date on vaccinations and flea, tick, and worm prevention, and he is also neutered. I take cleanliness and hygiene seriously and regularly clean and sanitize toys, bedding, and furniture to help maintain a clean and healthy environment for every pet in my care. I also carry a separate pet sitting insurance policy through Pet Care Insurance for extra peace of mind. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! I’m also happy to arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand if you’d like. I make it my priority to provide you and your pet with peace of mind while you’re apart.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day at my home includes regular feedings, potty breaks, and lots of playtime! I follow your fur baby’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel settled while they’re away from home. I love spending time outside with the doggies in my securely fenced-in yard, where they can play, explore, and get some exercise. There’s also plenty of indoor time for cuddles, relaxation, and naps, and they’re always welcome to make themselves at home. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while they’re in my care.

I’d love to learn as much as possible about your fur baby so I can provide the best care possible! Please share any medical needs, allergies, health conditions, or other important health information I should be aware of. It’s also helpful to know their usual routine, including feedings, medications, potty breaks, bedtime, and anything else that is part of their normal day. If there are any special preferences, habits, or needs I should know about, I’ll do my best to accommodate their individual routine and help make their stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. I’d also like to know if they are house trained, how much exercise they typically enjoy, and where they normally sleep. Because I have a 4-year-old child and a small dog in my home, and may have other client dogs staying, it’s important that I know how comfortable your dog is around small children and other dogs. For the safety and well-being of everyone in my home, I’m unable to accept dogs with a known history of aggression toward children or other dogs. Before their stay, please ensure your fur baby has enough food and medication (if needed). You’re also welcome to bring their preferred treats, food/water bowls, bedding, crate (if crate trained), toys, comfort items, or anything else they use on a daily basis or that would help them feel comfortable. I have two large crates, bedding, and food/water bowls available, but these may be limited if I have more than one booking at the same time. Please also ensure your fur baby is up to date on vaccinations and flea, tick, and worm prevention and does not have any contagious illnesses. This helps keep all of the dogs in my home safe and healthy. Thank you!
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.
