Pet care experience

Loving & Reliable Pet Sitter

I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. Over the years, I’ve cared for senior dogs, energetic puppies, and cats with different personalities from playful to shy. I truly enjoy getting to know each animal’s routine and making them feel safe and loved while their owners are away.

Karla was absolutely wonderful with Playboi! They were professional, reliable, and treated my dog like their own. I really appreciated the daily photo updates and detailed notes on their walks and playtime. Playboi seemed so happy and relaxed when I returned home, which gave me immense peace of mind while I was away. For those who have a gentle giant in their home, I highly recommend Karla and will definitely be using their services again!" Contact this sitter

Karla did an outstanding job caring for Ozzy while I was away. She kept me fully updated with multiple daily photos, videos, and detailed updates, treating Ozzy as if he were her own. I truly felt at ease knowing he was in such caring hands. Without hesitation, I’ll definitely trust Ozzy with Karla again!

Amazing sitter! She took care of my cat for a full month and did a wonderful job. My cat was kept clean, happy, and well cared for the entire time. She sent daily photos and videos, which I really appreciated and found very reassuring. She is very polite, friendly, and easy to communicate with, and she went above and beyond to make sure everything was smooth. She even dropped my cat off at my home at the end of the stay, which was incredibly helpful. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter.

Schedule

I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for pets and give them my full attention. I’m available for boarding on weekends, weekday visits after 2 PM, and flexible drop-in or sitting hours depending on your pet’s needs. I love spending my afternoons and evenings walking, playing, or relaxing with pets it’s truly the best part of my day.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide a calm, safe, and pet-friendly environment. I’m very attentive to routines and make sure all feeding, walking, and medication instructions are followed precisely. Whether in my home or yours, I always keep safety a top priority doors are secured, water is fresh, and pets are never left unattended. My goal is to make every animal feel secure, loved, and right at home.

A typical day

A typical day with me includes plenty of playtime, walks, and attention. I love taking dogs on mini adventures, whether that’s exploring the neighborhood, playing fetch, or enjoying time at a nearby park. I make sure they get exercise, love, and calm downtime after fun activity.
