I have no kids and single floor home if those are restrictions for your pet. There is room inside for a crate if needed. The large back yard is fully fenced in and great for fetch. I do walk/run regularly and would love for your pet to join me if they are up to it.

Kara was a kind and energetic person who bonded with our dog immediately. Mac was a happy dog who was not in a hurry to leave Kara’s care when we picked him up at the end of his stay. We will have a safe and healthy place to care for our dog in the future. Thank you,Kara.

I couldn’t ask for a better experience. Kara welcomed Bailey into her home, even kept her an extra day and night. I appreciate her patience with me. This is my first time using this service Rover overnight.

Kara was great ! Was able to take Zoey at late notice and was more than happy to accomodate her special needs. Will be happy to use her again next time I'm out of town

Kara took fantastic care of my very shy rescue dog during his overnight stay. She was patient and reassuring during the meet and greet, which helped him feel comfortable and me not feel so nervous! He loved exploring her fenced-in yard, and I really appreciated the great communication and frequent photos throughout his stay. He looked genuinely happy and comfortable when I picked him up. I will definitely book with Kara again.

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.
