Yarah can care for
Availability
Pet care fits around my weekly college schedule, which I attend four days a week, plus one day of work experience at a doggy daycare. I’m used to structured routines and being around animals every day. Outside of those hours, I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as weekends. My experience at a busy daycare has made me confident managing different personalities, keeping pets safe, and giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection whenever I’m with them. I’m also happy to be contacted about caring for other types of pets, including reptiles and small animals.

Safety, trust & environment
Safety is always my top priority. I’ve done work experience in a veterinary clinic for 4 years, so I’m very comfortable around animals of all temperaments and have a good understanding of their health and behavior. I’m able to notice early signs of stress or illness and handle situations calmly if anything seems off. When I’m in your home, I’m respectful of your space and stick to your pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable. I make sure doors are secure, double-check leashes and harnesses, and keep a close eye on pets during outdoor time. I’m careful about unsafe foods or objects and always aim to keep things calm and clean. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is safe and well cared for.
Information Yarah U. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for any pet, I like to learn as much as possible about their individual needs and routine. This includes their feeding schedule, favourite activities, walk preferences, and any training cues or house rules you’d like me to follow. It’s also really important to know about medical needs, allergies, medications, mobility issues, or anxiety triggers so I can keep them comfortable and safe. I also ask about things like how they are with other dogs or people, whether they have any escape habits, and what helps them settle if they get nervous. For cats, I like to know litter preferences, hiding spots, and how social or independent they are. Having these details ahead of time helps me provide consistent, personalised care that feels familiar and stress-free for your pet.
A typical day
A typical day starts with a calm check-in to make sure your pet is happy and settled, followed by feeding and fresh water if needed. For dogs, this is usually a walk tailored to their energy level, giving them time to sniff, explore, and burn off some energy. Back at home, we’ll have playtime with their favourite toys, basic training or reinforcement of good manners, and plenty of fuss and affection.

Reliable care you can count on.
Pet care experience
I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors who need extra patience and support. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering basic medications, leash training and reinforcing good manners through positive reinforcement. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and body language, making sure they feel safe, understood, and loved. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I aim to keep pets relaxed and happy while you’re away.

Reviews
Yarah was so lovely and so helpful. Rosie loved her and even tried to go with Yarah when she was leaving the house. Yarah was so accommodating and was ok arriving and leaving when my daughter was here rather than us. Nothing was too much trouble. It made so much difference to us knowing Rosie had some company in her own environment. Thanks so much. I would have no hesitation in recommending Yarah and have no hesitation in using her again for anymore dog sitting we require. Thanks again
Yarah was amazing with the pets.
Yarah was friendly, punctual, and amazing with my kittens. It was my first time leaving them alone while they were still very young, and she made both me and them feel completely comfortable. She sent lovely photos of them cuddled up sleeping next to her, which really reassured me they were relaxed. I came home to two happy kittens and would absolutely have Yarah back again!
I'm so pleased we found Yara through Rover. She looked after our dog, Jenny for a few days at our house and was brilliant with her. She has a real genuine care and interest for animals, and it came across clearly when we met her,but also how she looked after jenmy throughout the stay. We appreciated her contact with us over the few days and the photo updates. She even taught her a new trick! The house was spotless when we got back and Jenny was relaxed, showing she'd clearly had a good time. Will definitely be asking her to look after Jenny again and would recommend 100%. Thanks Yara!
