Highlights
Pet care experience
WFH professional in Hillsborough
I grew up with a family dog who was part of our lives for 14 years, so I have plenty of firsthand experience caring for dogs. I’ve also looked after neighbors’ dogs and cats over the years and have always been a huge animal lover. For me, Rover is genuinely a fun way to spend my time because I get to hang out with dogs, something I’d happily do anyway!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Having grown up with a family dog for 14 years, I know how much trust goes into leaving your pet with someone else. I treat the dogs I watch the same way I’d want someone to treat my own. Since I work from home, I’m around throughout the day and can keep a close eye on them rather than leaving them alone for long stretches. I’m careful about following each owner’s instructions, whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, leash preferences, or anything else that’s important to a dog’s routine. I also think communication is really important, so I’m always happy to send photos and updates while you’re away. I want you to feel comfortable knowing your dog is in good hands.
Ratings and reviews
Karina did an amazing job taking care of my black lab Gemma! Felt very relaxed on my trip knowing she was in good hands and came home to a smiling dog :)

Schedule
I recently graduated with my MBA from Yale after working at Microsoft and McKinsey, and I’m now building my own fashion company. I’m currently living with my parents while getting the business off the ground, and since I work from home, I have a very flexible schedule. This means I’m around throughout the day to give your pet plenty of attention, take them outside frequently, and make sure they’re comfortable. I genuinely love having dogs around, whether we’re going for walks, playing, or just hanging out while I work

- I’d love to know your dog’s usual feeding and walking schedule, along with any medications, allergies, or special needs. It’s also helpful to know how they get along with other dogs and if there’s anything I should be aware of to make their stay as comfortable as possible.
