Safety, trust & environment

Whether your pet is super friendly or super shy, understanding their boundaries are super important to me. I will care for your pet(s) without pushing their boundaries while also keeping you well informed on how visits go. Instructions are always followed and homes are kept secured at all times.

Information Kari V. would like to know about your pet

Instructions for visits and any information about your pets quirks is essential to making sure I am providing the proper care for your pet(s) while you are away. :)

A typical day

I will let your pet(s) feel me out first and plan around their comfort levels! Care can range from walks, playtime and affection to simply providing support and a comforting presence. Any information on what your pet likes to do is really beneficial so I can be sure to not stray too far away from their routines.

Pet care experience

Hey there! I have many years of experience owning pets as well as pet sitting. This includes a wide variety of dogs and cats (all breeds and ages welcomed). I also understand pets have unique personalities and comfort levels and can ensure they will receive individualized care while I’m with them.

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.
