Availability

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the week. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, as well as weekend care. Because my time is split between part-time work and training, I can give your pet the attention, consistency, and companionship they deserve.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment that minimizes stress and keeps routines consistent. I follow any instructions carefully—feeding, walks, medications, or house rules—so your pet feels secure and cared for just like they would with you. In your home, I treat the space with respect and maintain a clean, secure setting. If pets are staying with me, they’ll enjoy a quiet, supervised space with plenty of attention, playtime, and rest. I never leave pets unattended for long and always make sure they’re in a safe, enclosed area indoors or on-leash outside. Communication is key—I’ll keep you updated with messages, photos, or videos so you know your pet is happy and in good hands.

Information Karli K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I should be aware of. Any physical, dietary, or just a quirk that they have beforehand.

A typical day

I strive to provide pets with engaging and enjoyable experiences during their stay. Whether it's through interactive play, stimulating activities, or simply offering companionship, I ensure that each pet receives the attention and care they deserve. By tailoring activities to each pet's preferences and energy levels, I create a positive and enriching environment that helps them feel comfortable and happy.

Pet care experience

I've spent over 15 years caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. From energetic puppies needing structure and play, to senior pets requiring patience and gentle care, I tailor my approach to each animal's unique needs. I've also volunteered at local shelters, where I gained hands-on experience with pets who need extra love and attention.

Karli has been everything we had hoped for when hiring someone on Rover to take care of our dog. We will definitely use her again. Thank you!

Karli has been so helpful. She is the first person we have used from Rover, and I am thankful for how helpful she has been. She was available to take my dog for on short notice and is extremely friendly. I will definitely be using her services again.

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.
