Long time energetic pet care taker!

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of pets my whole life for neighbors, relatives, and friends. Currently, I travel throughout seasons for my career, but love meeting the people and pets in my area. Ask me how long I am in your area! I am a park ranger and a long time pet lover. I have experience with senior dogs primarily but enjoy working with dogs with energy, tons of cat experience as well. If this works for you, I look forward to meeting you and your beloved fur baby/ies! Hope to schedule a walk or visit with you & your pet(s) soon. Thank you for considering me, I know there are many options when picking someone to care for your fur-babies. Please message me if you would like to know more.

Kali was amazing with our babies. They loved her and from our first meeting you could tell she was an animal lover! We have a blind Labrador that gets very anxious and needs someone at home at night. She came into our home stayed with them. I feel she went above and beyond and the house looked great when we returned.

Kali house-sat for us on short notice, and not only did she make time to stop by the day before to meet the pets and get her bearings, she was also so kind and understanding about the long laundry list of needs and quirks when caring for our sensitive senior dog. While we were away, Kali sent pictures and text updates, and we were certain that our pets and home were in good hands. Next time we go out of town, Kali will be our first pick to watch over our pack!

5 stars isn’t enough. Our experience with Kali was superb. It was our first time using Rover so we were a bit nervous and she absolutely nailed it. She house and dog sit our 2 pups for 5 days. We have a 75-pound American bulldog who can be a bit “extra” with her affection, but no problem for Kali. The house was spotless, many pictures of happy pups were exchanged, she gathered all our mail (and a heavy delivery box) and kept us apprised of some severe weather that blew threw. I am seriously so impressed and will 100% ask her to return next time we are out of town. Our bulldog hopped in Kali’s car and tried to go home with her when she left if that tells you how well she cared for them. Thank you, Kali! Our trip was much more enjoyable knowing the pups were happy at home.

Because Rover is my second job, I am not able to give potty breaks sooner than every 8.5-9 hours, which may not be feasible for senior dogs and excitable puppies. I do work weekends, and am likely available for your weekend getaways. I do my best to update my calendar, however message with your dates and I will be happy to work with you.
