Pet care experience

Dogs are like our children!

I’ve raised chihuahuas for the last 20 years and have pet sat all kinds of my friends’ dogs. I will stick with whatever schedule you provide, walk them several times a day, and give them tons of love. You’ll even receive check in photos of your doggy! I recently had to say goodbye to my doggy, so no other pets currently live in my home with me. And I only accept one client at a time for boarding in my home, so your doggy would get all the attention! I had paused my bookings for new clients to care for her, but have opened my schedule up again.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a very dog friendly area with a lot of sidewalks around the complex for good walking if they stay with me. If I go to your house, I will follow your rules as you’d like.

I would highly recommend Kara. She shows the caring qualities we all look for in someone we trust with our pets. She will be our first choice the next time we need someone to care for our dog.

Kara took fantastic care of our two pups! We had to unspoil them when we brought them home. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and videos, which we loved. We wish we would have found her sooner!

Our Winnie was so happy at Kara's place for the weekend. We received a ton of photos and videos, and she was super flexible when we had travel delays.

She was great and sent us photo/ video updates every day. I could relax on our trip knowing our fur babies were in good hands!

41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Kara can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Let me know what specific schedule you want for your dog, and I’ll stick to it. It’s important that they stick to the same routine they’re already familiar with.
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.
