Pet care experience
I have loved animals of all kinds my entire life! Previously owned dogs but now a cat mom to one 😸. I have been cat sitting and dog walking since I was a junior in high school for family and work colleagues. I continued into college, helping out during the holidays with at-home visits, walking, and short-term overnight stays with my furry clients.
Reviews
Karla is great. She is very patient with my young pup!
Thank you Karla for helping out on short notice! Super friendly and great with Kylo. Will request her again for future walks!
Karla, you are the best! Thanks for taking such good care of my baby!
Great care and reporting on the well being of my dog.

As a pet lover myself, I understand wanting the best care for your pets while you’re away. While I do not offer boarding, I can do overnights at your home to pet sit, water plants, and pickup mail while you’re away. Because I work remotely, I can be home most of the day and overnight with your pet, meaning sticking to their schedules and ensuring time to get them comfortable with me. During the meet and greet, I will go over schedules for feeding, outdoor time, playtime, medication (if required) and will also try to take the time to get to know your pet and home to ensure my time there is conducive to your needs while away.
Information Karla R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know about any special behaviors towards people and other animals and while you’re away. If they have a set schedule, communicate so I can stick to their needs!
A typical day
I’m pretty active, so a long walk/jog for energetic pups will be in order. I also love a doggie cuddle after a long day or with older/calmer pups. I love walking around the outdoor mall area near my house, with plenty of green space to explore.

Availability
I am currently working from home, which gives me the flexibility to care for pets on my own schedule (I typically only go into the office once a week for a couple hours). I have a vehicle to be able to travel to your pet for convenience, and always make sure to update my calendar with availability. I have a partner who may come to drop-ins/walks/meet and greets with me. He will NOT stay at homes with me unless explicitly discussed with owners.
