Safety, trust & environment

Safety is extremely important to me, i’ve definitely been called an over worrier but in my opinion safe is always better than sorry. Keeping my own animals safe and happy is and always has been one of my number one priorities and I promise to treat your pets with the exact same level of care. Making sure they have all their necessities and that anything dangerous or off limits is out of reach or put away is another things that’s very important to me because I know how much our furry friends love to get into things. Home safety is big as well, things like ensuring doors are locked and setting alarms if they are available so you know your pets and your home are being taken care of.

Information Karly M. would like to know about your pet

Please feel free to give any information you think is important for me to know about your pet, I want to make them feel as safe and comfortable as I can!!

A typical day

A typical day for me I think depends on the animal. Of course daily exercise is important and necessary for all pets but some need more of it than others. Activities like fetch and tug of war are really great options and the obvious choices like walks as well. I’m always going to use my best judgment to decide the right routine when caring for your pet!!

Pet care experience

All my life i’ve been caring for family pets but within the last few years I have done walks, drop in’s, overnights, and feedings for friends and family (dogs and cats) I have worked with dogs from puppies to seniors and can give tailored care to your animal’s specific needs. I also have lots of experience with cats, I have four myself and love being around them!! I have had practice giving medication to pups orally so can also help with that if need be!!

This is the second time Karly has been our walker for Bella. The first time was a 5 week hire while we were out of town. The second time was a short notice two day walker stint. Always punctual through both terms, and always caring. We felt very comfortable knowing Karly was watching our Senior Labrador Bella. Bella loved it too!

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.
