Pet care experience

I have grown up with pets my whole life. Larger dog breeds, smaller dog breeds, cats, birds, fish, rodents, you name it! Currently my husband and I have two fur babies, a sweet active Husky named Kai ❤️ and a sweet indoor cat named Nugget. They are the best! I’m biased I know. I’ve also had countless neighbors and friends who always counted on me to jump and help whenever they went out of town, or worked a longer day at work, or just needed extra help! I take care of animals as very close to my heart, as if they were my own. I have experience with senior dogs and cats as well, with distributing medicines and eye drops. I have nothing but patience, experience and love to give! If you have any questions at all, please feel free to drop me a message :) Please note, I would love to meet and greet with you and your furry pets! I do allow for one free meet and greet to get acquainted, but outside of that, I do charge for additional meet and greets and/or walks outside of the first one, thank you for understanding!

We needed a last-minute sitter, and are so lucky to have found Kara! She treated our high-energy bulldog with lots of love and was incredibly respectful of our home. I will hope to rebook with Kara again and again and would highly recommend her to other families looking for a trustworthy, dependable sitter. She is also very quick to communicate and made sure to keep us updated with photos. Perfect experience!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
