Safety, trust & environment

I provide peace of mind by maintaining a secure and tidy environment while you’re away. I am diligent about following feeding schedules, administering medications if needed, and performing safety sweeps of the home during every visit. I treat your home with the same care and attention I would my own, ensuring a safe, happy space for your pets

Information Kara S. would like to know about your pet

It's important for me to know any details regarding leash manners, medication requirements, and favorite comfort items. Knowing if your pet has any allergies or anxieties helps me to stay prepared allowing them to stay healthy and happy!

A typical day

​🐾 My Typical Day ​I provide a consistent, high-energy, or relaxing routine. I will tailor each visit to your pet's specific needs: ​Morning: Fresh water, breakfast, and a morning walk to start the day right. ​Mid-Day: An interactive play session or a scent-walk to burn off energy. Then usually another potty break just before dinner. ​Evening: Dinner, potty break/walk, and plenty of attention and wind-down time so they feel safe and settled. ​Updates: You’ll receive detailed Rover Cards with photos and videos after every visit so you never miss a moment! ​✨ Fun & Enrichment ​I believe in keeping pets mentally sharp and physically active by playing ​Brain Games, Catching pet-safe bubbles or playing "Hide and Seek" with their favorite toys. ​Outdoor Adventures: plenty of exercise they crave. ​Cooling Treats: On warm afternoons, pet-safe frozen treats (with your permission!) to keep them hydrated and happy.

Experienced Puppy/Senior Caregiver

Pet care experience

Reliable, flexible, and loving! I am available 7 days a week for in-home sitting, drop-in visits, daily walks or quick potty breaks, tailored to your pet's needs. ​Having raised animals my entire life—including four dogs and cats from newborns until senior years, I understand the unique care required for every life stage. I’ve personally raised them all with patience and love and can't imagine life without them. My current companion, Bones, is a happy 2-year-old American Bully I’ve raised, house trained while teaching basic social skills starting at 8 wks old ​I treat every pet like my own. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines you may have and will provide regular photo/text updates so you never have to wonder how your best friend is doing.

Kara has been a godsend! Always on time, my grand-dog adores her, and we could not be more satisfied.
