Pet care experience

Experienced, Responsible, & Loving

Hi! I would love to take care of your precious pets 🥰 I’m almost always home from 8am-6pm on weekdays, and most of the day on weekends, so you never have to worry about your best friend being left alone too long. Note: I’m only able to accept requests in NYC at this time. Rover only allows me to set a radius, rather than a city, for the service location. So sorry for any confusion! 🤗 I have spent my whole life around animals, and have had my own pets for the past 20 years. If you trust your pet with me, you can rest assured that they'll be happy and well cared for while you're away. I have experience with many breeds, sizes, and ages of dogs and cats (and more)! I love going on nice walks with dogs, or taking them to a park (or even a restaurant patio) if your pet prefers a little public socialization. Your best friend will get as much exercise and stimulation as they want while in our care—just let me know what would make them happiest! (My husband, Chris, can even housesit instead of me for pets who prefer a male companion.) My husband and I have fostered and volunteered for several animal rescues, and have extensive experience with newborns, puppies, seniors, reactive, and otherwise high-maintenance pets. We are both very comfortable administering all types of medications, including injections and even subcutaneous fluids in an emergency. We will treat your pets as our own, and since Chris and I both work from home, your buddy will get tons of attention, affection, and playtime indoors and out all day 🩵

While with one of us, your buddy will get to go outside as often as they like! We welcome cuddle time on the couch, and are happy to share a bed with your pup as well. Our own dogs definitely love a nap in bed 🥰

Kerra is the absolute best. She made me feel so comfortable on my vacation and my pup absolutely loved her. My only complaint is that I think my dog likes her more :)

Kerra was the best sitter we’ve had in ages. Fred is obsessed with her. She was quick to reply, sent a ton of photos and made us feel Fred was loved and looked after. We will be rebooking as often as her schedule allows

Kerra was fantastic, truly. She was super responsive during the booking process, and was a perfect caretaker for not only our two pups but our home. She was very very communicative during the booking, sending regular updates. At the end of the booking, she even made some very helpful suggestions about training for our 4-month old puppy. We we would highly recommend her to anyone.

Kerra and Chris were great! Our dogs loved them! They got lots of play time and walks. One of our dogs had a medical issue while they were there (from a pre existing issue) and they took him to the vet and were really helpful!

Once again we had a stress free vacation thanks to Kerra taking such good care of our puppy. We left Ruby for the longest we’ve ever left her and didn’t think twice about it, knowing Kerra would take great care of her and send us plenty of updates and adorable pictures. She went above and beyond and we’re so glad we found her
