Kara did an amazing job caring for my cat while I was away for 4 days. She kept food, water, and litter clean and fresh, and spent time entertaining and interacting with my cat during each visit. I especially appreciated the detailed updates and photos she sent, which gave me peace of mind while I was on vacation. I would definitely recommend Kara to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

She took care of my girls and I didn’t have to worry about anything while I was away.

We love the services Kara provides. Our dogs were happy and content when we arrived back home and our home was clean and all instructions followed! We will definitely rebook with Kara.

I was so hesitant to leave Thor for two weeks but I was beyond lucky to find Kara through Rover. I cannot say enough nice things about her. She alleviated any anxieties or fears I had about leaving Thor for such an extended period of time. Above all: she took such great care of him in my absence that I genuinely did not have to worry about him. I was able to enjoy my time visiting family because I trusted Thor was in great hands. She is fantastic at keeping you updated about your pet. I absolutely loved receiving her pictures every day! Thor looks like he was well-loved in our absence and I’m so thrilled. I actually think Thor misses her already! lol If you have ANY reservations about pet care for your pet while you’re away, I strongly recommend you book with Kara. If I could give her 10 stars, I would!

Please, let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I need to know of before our time together. It is important that I know if your dog is kid friendly and pet friendly with other animals or not. I would also like to know about your dogs behavior and interactions with strangers since I will be taking them on walks and we may interact with others while we are out.
