Insured Former Vet Tech

Pet care experience

Insured | Former Vet Tech | Certified in cat and dog first aid with American Red Cross Hello all! I am an avid animal lover, rescuer, and pet owner. My life has always revolved around animals. I began volunteering at a veterinary clinic when I was only 12 years old and have not strayed far from my passion since! I have worked at boarding and doggie daycare facilities and am a former veterinary technician with over eight years of experience in a clinic environment. I have been a pet care provider since 2018, primarily working with private clients. I have recently relocated to the Lake Worth area and am returning to Rover as my service area has changed. I love animals of all shapes and sizes. I am insured and trained in CPR, emergency protocols, and medication administration. Aside from my veterinary training, I hold a certificate in cat and dog first aid from the American Red Cross. I am comfortable with all ages (bottle babies to geriatrics) and have plenty of experience with special needs animals. (I have two special needs cats of my own, and was the proud owner of a deaf-blind pitbull.) I have two senior dogs (Faolan and Caspian) and three cats (Melody, Giannis, Abigail) of my own. I also provide care for four neighborhood ferals that have adopted me.

Kara is one of a kind. While we were on vacation, our fish tank cracked and she came upon a kitchen and living room flooded with water. Unfortunately we lost our salt water fish, but Kara went above and beyond in drying our floors, and even grabbing her rug cleaner to suction the water out of our area rug. She even washed our towels that were drenched in saltwater! Our cats were very well taken care of and she made sure to keep us up to date with photos of our sweet babies. I highly recommend Kara as she cares for your pets and home like it is hers. Thank you so much!!!!! If I could tip her more than Rover would allow I would!! We will be using her again!

Absolutely amazing. Koto has loved Kara’s visits so much and has been noticeably happier with her coming by while I’m at work. 10/10 would recommend.

Amazing dog Walker. Every day when I come home after she’s visited Koto it’s almost like he’s trying to tell me all about his friend coming and I can clearly see he’s a lot more happy every since she has started coming around

Kara did an incredible job taking care of my 7 cats, and saltwater fish. She was very professional and made sure everything I asked was completed and sent me pictures and an update daily. She went above and behind and am very pleased. My flight was cancelled and Kara was happy to add my pets into the schedule one more day and more if I needed. I highly recommend Kara and plan to use her services again in the future! Thank you Kara!
