I currently work part time as a dance teacher and would love to spend time with your animals! I truly take pride in the time and attention I give the animals work with, this is never "just another job" for me. I travel occasionally with work but it is not unexpected and will not interfere with my abilities to give my full attention to your pet(s). I always come to our meet and greet with my schedule in hand to discuss any potential time conflicts with your pet's routine.

Safety, trust & environment

I take this seriously! My prices reflect the attention I will give your companions. I treat each pet as my own whether I am dog walking, dropping in, or staying the night. This includes snuggles, toy time, long walks, and making sure your pet is happy and healthy while you are away. I always make sure to keep an eye on your pet at all times, especially if outside time is needed. I understand that each pet is different, so I make sure to pay close attention to each owners wishes and each individual pets needs. I am careful and detail oriented!

Information Clara B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any unique needs your dog has, along with how your dog reacts when seeing other animals on walks so that I can be prepared for any situation. It is also very helpful to know if your pup is timid with strangers or stranger aggressive!

A typical day

We will go on many walks outside as well as hikes if your dog is physically capable and up to burn off some energy (if your pup has medical needs or is a senior I will always ask about activity levels first) I also love to play with you pet outside with toys or go to the park to play fetch. We spend a lot of time outside! I also love to give pets and snuggles at the end of the day.

Pet care experience

My passion for animal care started when I was young, helping care for an Alaskan dog mushing team and their puppies. From there I transitioned into drop in and overnight stays, caring for pets of friends and family (fish, birds, guinea pigs, cats, dogs, horses,). I have years of experience staying at homes and taking care of animals for extended periods of time. I have provided newborn kitten care for long durations, I have helped save husky puppies born during Alaskan winters, and I have helped I have taken care of a 19+ yr blind and deaf senior cat, making sure she was comfortable and loved until her time came to pass during her owners travels. My care has come to encompass many different types of animals, and I regularly animal sit horses, goats, and chickens for my Rover clients as well! I grew up with dogs and I currently have three cats of my own. I know what it takes to keep your animals safe, happy, and healthy. I treat animals with respect and kindness!

Clara stayed at our home while we were away with our two dogs and a cat, she was incredibly accommodating and conscientious, despite a severe asthma attack that occurred while she was here. She was professional and communicative, and left the house cleaner than she found it. We would not hesitate to use her again!

Clara is the best pet sitter we have ever used. She is great to work with, has a natural ability with our cat and dog and takes care of every detail around the house. We are so grateful for Clara!

Clara is on top of every detail. She is very organized and dependable. She took time to care for things around the house and clean up after muddy paws. Best of all, the pets immediately took to her, even the cat who typically hides under the bed until well after visitors leave.
