Caring Home for Friendly Dogs

I've had my own dog for the past 9 years, and caring for them has taught me how important consistency, patience, and love are. Although I'm new to Rover, I'm excited to provide a safe, comfortable home for dogs during the workweek. I work from home Monday through Friday, which allows me to give plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles while following each owner's routine to help their dog feel happy and relaxed.

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a securely fenced yard and one friendly, fully vaccinated resident dog. I will introduce dogs slowly and always prioritize a calm, low-stress environment. If separation of the two dogs is important to you, I can also accommodate that request. I also have three children (ages 16, 10, and 4), who are in school for most of the day. While I'm working from home, visiting dogs stay with me in my home office so they're never without supervision. When my children return home, visiting dogs have the option of remaining with me in my office in a separate area from the rest of the household if they need a quieter space or if separation is the safest choice. I can provide either a crate-free stay or crate your dog if that's part of their normal routine. I'll always follow your care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special needs, so your dog feels safe, comfortable, and at home.

Kara Lopes has always been a dog lover! She has her own dog Bailey who is part of her family. She enjoys dog walking and is familiar with the area dog parks and beaches. She is neat and organized and won't leave a mess. Your dog will enjoy the attention she will give.Thank you, Laura Kondrup

Kara is truly amazing with her dog and you can immediately tell how much she genuinely loves animals. She is incredibly caring, attentive, and responsible, and her dog is clearly a huge part of her life. The bond they share is really special, and it’s obvious that Kara goes above and beyond to make sure her dog is happy, healthy, and well cared for. Anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like family would be lucky to have Kara. Her love for animals really shines through, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable pet sitter!

Schedule

I work from home Monday through Friday, so your dog will have plenty of supervision, companionship, and care throughout the day. I provide regular potty breaks, playtime, and exercise in my fenced yard while following your dog's normal routine as closely as possible. Whether your pup enjoys relaxing, playing, or just being near someone during the day, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
