Pet care experience

Your pets new fairy godmother 🧚🏼

My professional journey in pet-sitting and dog-walking officially began in 2021 when I joined the team at David's Pet Services. It was an incredible experience to work with them for nearly two years, but due to my relocation to a different part of Connecticut, I had to step away from my role there. I had the pleasure of serving over 50 clients, gaining valuable expertise in various aspects of pet care. I have worked with small, medium, and large dogs, as well as providing attentive care to cats. Additionally, I have extensive experience with special needs and senior pets, ensuring their comfort and well-being. Basic puppy training, de-escalation techniques, and administering oral medications are also among my areas of expertise. I am well-versed in accommodating special instructions and routines to meet the unique needs of each pet. I have even cared for exotic pets, such as birds, fish, and guinea pigs! *I hold pet first aid/CPR certification, ensuring that I am prepared to handle any unforeseen situations and provide immediate care in emergencies*

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I firmly believe that every household and every pet is unique, with their own distinct needs and preferences. I understand that pets are cherished members of the family, and I approach every interaction with the understanding that their well-being is of the highest importance. From tailoring exercise routines to accommodate different fitness levels and goals, to providing a safe and nurturing environment, I am committed to delivering the highest standard of care and providing peace of mind to the pet owner.

I cannot say enough about what a wonderful dog walker Karla is. Our dog loved her, looked forward to her visits and could not have been more excited to see her. Karla took wonderful care of our dog, including letting us know if something seemed off with her, which we greatly appreciated. We were devastated when Karla told us she was relocating for another opportunity and are envious of the dogs who are lucky enough to have Karla care for them.

I would love to know the temperament and behaviors of your dog and/or cat as I can track them to see if their behavior is different than normal and to be aware of any signs of anxiousness, sickness, etc. Some other important things I would love to know: - basic medical history - prior history of aggression (if any) - behavior around other animals or humans - likes and dislikes
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.
