About Kara R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have 2 cats whom I love as I my own children until I decide I want to have kids. Every animal I care for feels safe and comfortable with me. I have calming energies they tend to gravitate towards. My most recent sitting interaction called me an “animal whisperer” one of the best compliments I have ever received. I ensure each animal feels safe and loved.
Information Kara R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog, cat or other kind of animal has any special requirements when being taken care of! I have experience with senior, special needs, puppies, kittens, reptiles, rodents and some farm animals as well. Message me and we’ll figure out if I’m the right match. Thank you
A typical day
There is a balance in every single animal I have taken care of, I get to know them and their needs through their owner and through having time with them. They need mental and physical stimulation, I love playing with all kinds of animals. Nature walks or playing in the yard, I would play fetch with my golden all the time. I actively play with my cats everyday. I have a lot of energy to give so that always helps!

Pets
Treating them as equals since 2013
Pet care experience
I grew up around many different breeds and species of animals, they are our family, friends and even children. They deserve to be treated equally. I have years of experience in sitting many different breeds and ages, kittens, even farm animals! Chickens, pigs and sheep. Open to rodent and reptilian care as well. I allow each animal to come to me in their own time. High energy? No problem! I’m eager to walk as many times as needed and play with them! Many of my friends have trusted me to watch their animals for years, and I have an amazing connection with each one. I hope to understand your animals personality and treat them like my own.

Reviews

Kara was wonderful. She was communicative throughout our stay and our girl loved her!

Thora took to Kara right away at the meet & greet, and Kara was willing to brave a potential snow and ice storm while we were away. She checked in a couple of times a day with details and photos, and it gave us peace to know that Thora was getting lots of love and play. The house was very tidy when we returned.



Kara was kind, professional, and really easy to communicate with from start to finish. I came home to relaxed and happy animals. Everything was handled reliably and with care. I’d book with her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.
Kara took such great care of our pup over the holidays! She arrived on time, was a stellar communicator, and seemed to genuinely enjoy spending time with our pup!
