Safety, trust & environment

I’m available to watch your home and your pets. I currently do not have any pets of my own, so I am flexible to accommodate.

Information Kara N. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or specific quirks! I’ve given meds to both cats and dogs. I don’t have any restrictions, just ask that your pet is friendly!

A typical day

I like to keep the animals mentally active! I’ll play fetch when they ask, play hide and seek, go on daily walks. I know how important it is to keep an active pet active! Also helps hold me accountable ?

Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of animals since I was old enough to take care of myself. As a child, we had cats in our family. As I grew older, I became the resident animal sitter for the neighborhood. I would walk, feed, and play with them for extra money. As an adult, I regularly watch my friends dogs and cats while they are out of town, staying in their homes, as to not disturb the routines of the beloved furry friends. I love their company.

Kara did an awesome job! We were extra nervous because our trip would take us out to the bush, and she was very accommodating and willing to work with us were we to be stuck due to weather. Would recommend & rebook.

Kara was so wonderful! She house sat our two dogs and one cat. As first time Rover users we didn’t know what to expect but Kara was communicative and easy to book with. After meeting her we knew our animals would be in good hands! She took great care of them, sent us picture updates along the way, and even cleaned before leaving! We would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her in the future!

Kara is a great find! She is a great communicator and has a gentle spirit that our Lainey Girl absolutely loved! We felt comfortable in entrusting her with our baby and having her in our home! Will definitely hire her again!

Kara was a fantastic pet sitter for our two dogs over a long weekend. She arrived on time, was reliable throughout the stay, and made sure our dogs received the care and attention they needed. One of our dogs requires daily medication, which Kara administered without issue. She also made time for outdoor play, which helped keep both dogs happy and engaged. We returned to a clean home — she even washed the bedding and made the bed before leaving, which was greatly appreciated. Most importantly, our dogs were calm, content, and happy to see us, with no signs of stress or anxiety from our absence. We highly recommend Kara to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter. We would absolutely welcome her back to care for our dogs again.
