Pet care experience
All Passion, All Pets! <3
Hi, pet parents! I’m so excited to have the opportunity to care for your beloved pet. With a background as a certified Veterinary Medical Assistant, I bring both passion and expertise to my role as a full-time pet sitter. Over the years, I have gained valuable experience working with dogs facing various challenges, such as anxiety, leash reactivity, dog aggression, and a variety of health concerns. I firmly believe in following the training methods you have established for your pets to maintain consistency and effectiveness, so they feel secure and comfortable. At home, I share a cozy basement suite with my two wonderful kitties, who are gentle and used to being around other animals. My mom, a fellow pet sitter, lives upstairs, so our household is entirely dedicated to making pets feel right at home. Our space is pet-friendly and perfect for your dog’s comfort and enjoyment. We have a large, secure backyard for playtime and fresh air, along with air conditioning to keep everyone cool during hot summer days. I do host other dogs for daycare, so dog-friendly dogs are ideal, though I can accommodate those who may need extra space with an additional charge. I’m here to provide the best experience possible for your pup, so walks are available upon request, tailored to their needs and energy levels. Please note: If your dog shows any reactive or aggressive behaviors—whether towards other dogs, cats, people, or on a leash—please let me know. Additionally, share any allergies, health concerns, or vaccination details. This information is essential for me to ensure your pet’s safety and well-being. Thank you for considering me as your pet’s home away from home! I can’t wait to meet your furry friend and make sure they have the best possible stay.

Ratings and reviews
She goes the extra mile. We trust her with our kitty.
Excellent! Friendly and knowledgeable. Clover was happy there! I felt good about leaving her for the day. She had fun!
Always reliable and my cat loves her.
Karla was our first sitter on Rover, and what a choice! We have never left our dogs with a stranger before, and we were in a different country! But Karla put us at ease in our Meet & Greet, and followed up with photos & videos while our dogs were there. She has a fenced backyard with nice grass, and the dogs loved playing in the yard. We picked them up and they were dog tired, immediately snoring on our way to our RV park. Would recommend with no reservations!
Great sitter. Went above and beyond to make our kitty feel loved. Thank you Karla.
Bella and Winter had a great time! I was very happy with the care Karla provided!

Schedule
I am so excited to say that currently, my full-time commitment is to Rover, so I'm available for dog walks, check ins, boardings and daycares from Sunday to Saturday. I do pop out on Wednesdays to volunteer for mobile vet visits. I am usually gone for only a few hours, but with my mom, Mary-Lin being home full time, your fur babies won’t be left alone. I offer flexible rates depending on the service and duration, and I'm more than happy to answer any questions you may have. Caring for your beloved fur babies—regardless of their size—is an opportunity I would cherish, and I assure you that choosing me would be a decision you won't regret. Your trust in me is greatly appreciated, and I genuinely look forward to being able to meet you and your pets!

A typical day
As a pet sitter, I have a range of engaging activities planned for the dogs I care for. Instead of dog parks, I prefer getting energy out in our backyard. I also do dog walks per request. I enjoy interactive play sessions tailored to each dog's preferences. Their well-being and enjoyment are my top priorities, and I'm open to accommodating their individual needs and interests.
