Safety, trust & environment

Unfortunately, my current living situation prevents me from accommodatimg more dogs or cats. Although, animals in aquariums are welcome and will be treated with love.

Information Karrie S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the routine the owner has for the dog...feeding, away house environment, walks, etc. Additionally, it's helpful to know how the dog reacts to other animals, humans, storms. I have worked with many breeds and love them all.

A typical day

I will walk the dog around the neighborhood. If the owner has a dog park they go to...or I'd also drive a public park if the owner allows that. Fetch and keep away are games most dogs enjoy! Ear and belly scratches followed by snuggles are a must as well

Pet care experience

I've loved dogs and cats since a young age. As I've grown older, my responsibilities have included feeding, walking, playing and even cleaning up after of various breeds of dogs and cats. I am capable of providing medication and other special care for your pets. I believe pets are family and I will treat your animals as my family. I am a kind, caring individual who will go above and beyond for your furbaby.

This was our first time using Rover, and we’re super pleased with Karrie. She was friendly and communicative, and did a great job of making our pets feel loved. She came over twice before our actual trip to meet our dog with us there so the dog would know her, which I really appreciated. I look forward to having her pet sit/house sit again!

Karrie was wonderful! She stayed with our two crazy boxers over a long weekend and sent many pictures showing them having a great time as well. She was also on-time which was very much appreciated.

Karrie is a totally delightful person. You can tell by her enthusiasm that she just loves animals of all kinds. Our rather grumpy cat walked right up to her and started purring - he NEVER does that for an "outsider". We found Karrie to be very timely in her responses to questions and schedule changes. We'll certainly use her again in the future and would recommend her to everyone in need of a pet sitter. You will love her!

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.
