Pet care experience
Loving care for Furry babies
Hi, my name is Carla, and I’m an experienced pet owner who understands just how much love, care, and attention our furry friends need. I’ve had the joy of caring for my own pets for many years — a 14-year-old dog and a 12-year-old cat — which has given me experience with pets of different ages and personalities. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own. If you’re looking for someone reliable and caring to look after your dog or cat, I’d be happy to help give them the same love and comfort they’re used to at home.

Ratings and reviews
Maria was great watching after my cat with a last minute booking. She provided me easy drop off & pick up and sent me daily pictures. Overall great experience especially as it was my first time using Rover!
My dog Martini made instant friends with Maria, it was trust at first sight. Maria took Martini for long walks and she enjoyed company of Maria’s dog. There was great communication and my dog was very happy. Recommended! Thanks Maria.
Maria Carle did a one week boarding for my dog. She did a fantastic job. She’s very sweet, nice & responsible & did her job with pride. Charlie really took to her & immediately warmed up to her. I liked her very much. She kept me updated while I was away with texts & very cute pictures. She gave me peace of mind while I was away & knew Charlie was in good hands. I highly recommend her. I will definitely be hiring her again
Carla has always had a natural gift with animals. I’ve seen the way she cares for her own dog and cat with patience, love, and dedication, and she shows the same kindness with any pet she looks after. She’s reliable, gentle, and truly treats every animal like family. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with my own pets anytime

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my life because spending time with animals is something I truly enjoy. I work from home three days a week, which allows me to be flexible during the day, and I’m fully available after 6 p.m. on weekdays. Weekends are completely open for me, so I can dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets, whether that’s walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a walk, or overnight care, I always follow each pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and happy. From feeding and walks to playtime and cuddles, I adjust to their needs and personality, making sure they feel safe and loved while their family is away. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos for peace of mind.
Pets
A typical day
I love keeping pets active, happy, and engaged! Depending on each pet’s personality and energy level, I enjoy going for walks, playing fetch, exploring nearby parks, or having fun with indoor games like tug-of-war or puzzle toys. For calmer pets, I love cozy cuddle time, gentle brushing, and just keeping them company. My goal is to make sure every pet feels loved, comfortable, and entertained while their owners are away.

- I like to know each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can give them the best care possible. Please share details like their feeding schedule, favorite activities, energy level, and how they do on walks or around other pets. It’s also helpful to know if they have any allergies, medications, anxieties, or behaviors I should be mindful of. The more I know, the more I can make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.
