Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Karly. Although this is my profile, it will be my partner Chris and I spending time with your pup(s) if they are at our home so that they get double the love! We had been on rover for a little over two years before getting our own 2 dogs in 2018. We spent our first year and a half without any pups of our own and spent time with many different types of doggies. We have met the most wonderful dog owners and cared for some of the most lovable, playful pups around. We just got our own dogs _ (Who are now 2 years old) and hope that Rover pups might make friends with our Eevee and Charlie as they are both very playful with other dogs. We currently both work full-time so please know that your pup will most likely be home during the time that we are at work (about 8 AM - 5 PM). We will abide by whatever your typical routine is - whether that be having your pup in a crate, left in a smaller room so that he/she isn't overwhelmed, or left to the roam the home as he/she wishes! If you are interested in house sitting, I no longer offer this service as a result of getting dogs of my own. When reaching out, I like to know your dog's typical routine, how they do with other dogs (especially snall dogs specifically since our dogs are small) and any other information you think is important to know! Our history with dogs includes boarding, house-sitting and performing drop in visits on rover for the past almost 2 years. We have cared for dogs of many different ages, temperaments, breeds and have even cared for 6 dogs from one family! If you have multiple dogs, we are happy to watch them together as long as they get along well with our pups! The only thing we do not do at this time is bring together multiple dogs from different owners. I look forward to spending some time with your dogs! :)

Karly and Chris watched our dog Lulu for 15 days while we were out of the country. They were great. Both were caring and accommodating of any of Lulu's needs. They sent me fun updates every day, and kept in touch with any questions. When I picked Lulu up, she was clean and well taken care of. We could see that Lulu loved being there. I would highly recommend Karly (and Chris) as a sitter.

Karly and Chris were fantastic with our dog, Miles. Miles can be challenging to walk and has some quirks to his diet, but Karly and Chris were up to the challenge and handled Miles with so much love. Miles seemed to be very relaxed and comfortable with Karly and Chris. Thank you!

Karly was a great sitter for our 2 dogs & 5 cats. She took the dogs for a long walk so they were well-behaved when we got home. She is very personable & nice to humans, too, and we totally trusted her to stay over at our house. She gave us lots of updates & spent more time than we even expected her to. We'll definitely be using her services again soon!

Karly was wonderful. I felt comfortable leaving my dog with her even though my pup is older and slightly special needs. They welcomed my dog onto their furniture and sent me updates and photos. She was easy to work with for pick up and drop off. I would absolutely use Karly in the future to watch my dog.

Information Karly S. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any breed preferences. I would just like to know some basic information about your pup including what his/her daily routine is, if he/she will be okay at home while we are at work, how your pup interacts with other dogs and, finally, if the pup is okay with steps (we do have steps to our second floor so I want to be sure this will be ok for your pup)!

A typical day

There is a big and small dog park that is only about 1.5 miles from my home so I would take dogs to this park. Additionally, your pups can pkay with ours in our fenced in backyard.
