Safety, trust & environment

I have a lot of experience caring for pets in their own homes, and in respecting both the home/yard environment as well as the pet’s relationship with the home and the home’s routines. I learn as quickly as I can how pets prefer to behave in their own environment, such as what rooms they like, where they prefer to sleep, play, etc., so that I can treat them according to what needs and feelings they are expressing. (I have also worked as a house sitter in the past, so your home will also be in good hands!)

Information Clara M. would like to know about your pet

No one knows your pet better than you, and no one is a better judge of what I need to know about them! If your dog has a preferred schedule, particular reactivity triggers, special treats, walking routes, or favorite music, I would love to know. And of course the same goes for your kitty and when they like to eat, where they like to hide, and whatever other traits they have cultivated over their time with you.

A typical day

Outside of the basics like feeding, watering (and, as needed, medicating) on schedule, I try to fill every animal's day with the type of activity they prefer. Every pet is different, and I cater to each pet's interests--whether that's walks, throwing a ball in the back yard, playing tug-of-war with toys, or just snuggling for comfort, I am happy to meet your pet where they need to be met!

Vet Assistant Who Loves All Pets!

Pet care experience

Hello, pet parents! My name is Clara, and I want to take care of your pets! I have had four years of experience working as a Veterinary Assistant, and as a pet sitter for several repeat clients. My experience in vet care and my own dog, Riddle, have taught me what a privilege it is to care for, understand, and bond with animals of all kinds, and I would love to have that chance with your dogs and cats. I have experience caring for senior pets, and special needs pets, and I am comfortable administering medications in the form of liquids, pills, topicals, and even injections such as insulin. I am very mindful of how animals communicate and express their needs, and I focus closely on what they are communicating, both directly and indirectly, and accommodate them however I can. My goal is to have a special bond with every pet I care for, and to make them feel safe and comfortable.

Clara did a great job during her visits to our home. She even got a glimpse of our very shy Etta.

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.
