Pet care experience

Attentive & flexible WFH cat lover

I grew up having kitties of my own, and enjoy having cats around the house. I have been helping my sister watch cats for the past two years on Rover and just got my own house, so I now have my own space to provide cat care. I’m experienced with providing meds and with all age levels. I’m available for video call meet and greets upon request.

Lara is a exceptional sitter and allowed me to have piece of mind that my cat was in good hands whilst I was traveling overseas. Her response time is extremely fast whenever I had any questions and she is super friendly. She sent me frequent updates with photos to keep me posted as to how he was doing and it was clear that he was at ease with her very quickly and that she really took great care of him. Very grateful!

First experience using Rover and Lara was definitely a 10/10 My babies seemed happy and relaxed while they were with her and I loved getting updates that showed how comfortable they were!

Lara was really great with my two young energetic kitties! I enjoyed getting pictures of them while I was away 😊

Safety, trust & environment

I have a roomy house with multiple spare bedrooms set up for your kitty's ideal vacation. I work from home, so I can keep an eye on your kitty full time. All the rooms have lots of windows to watch the squirrels and butterflies! I do not have any pets of my own since I catsit and I only watch cats, no dogs or other animals. I love to have kitties around and have lots of experience with all different ages and personalities to provide a tailored stay for your kitties needs. 😊 INCLUDED: Cat scratch tower, comfy furniture, extra blankets, cat toys, and a litter box. WHAT TO BRING: Your pet's food and medicine and litter. Although not required to bring anything additional as I know it can be a hassle to haul around, I have lots of room so feel free to bring any favorite toys, litter boxes, beds, etc. only if you want! WHAT TO EXPECT: A customized experience based on your pet's needs. I am home most of the time, so I will keep your kitty company all day and night. I will give them timely food, medicine, and make sure they have as much or as little playtime and cuddles as they want. 😊 I will send photos and or videos throughout the stay as requested. Your kitty will have their own private bedroom for them to feel safe and comfy and if there are ever multiple cats at the house, they will be kept entirely separate. If your cat wants to explore the rest of the house they are welcome to do so when there are no external doors being opened and closed to ensure they are always kept secure. I have experience providing various types of medicine, but at this time am not providing any injections. I deep clean frequently between stays and keep extra wet and dry food, treats, catnip in case any trips get extended last minute! I work from home and usually start my day around 7am. My schedule is pretty flexible, but please just keep me posted for pickup and dropoff times so I can plan accordingly. My sister Kara C also catsits for Rover about a block away, so as an extra layer of flexibility she is available to assist with pickups and dropoffs if your schedule were to change. For drop off, your kitty will stay in their crate until the front door is secured to make sure they remain safe and secure in my home. For pickup I will do my best to have your kitty in their carrier with their items by the door, but with some rare instances if your kitty is not a big fan of travel, and I cannot safely and calmly secure your kitty in the carrier, I may ask you for assistance. If you want to do a virtual meet and greet I am happy to do so, but to maximize my availability I am not offering in person meet and greets at this time. If you have any additional questions, please let me know.😊

A typical day

I have plenty of toys on hand for more active kitties, and lots of open space for them to roam, sunbathe or squirrel-watch in the windows.

Cats
Lara can host up to 13 pets per night
Please let me know any dietary or medical needs your kitty may have ahead of time so that I can make their stay as comfortable as possible!
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.
