Pet care experience

Fun and energetic pet companion!

I am a current graduate student at the University of Arizona. I love all animals and will treat your babies like my own! I love looking after them and going on long walks! I have had cats all growing up and have been around animals my entire life. I have also been the neighborhood house sitter since I was around 17 years old. I can water the plants, feed your animals, and ensure your house is safe! I have a cat, Sawyer, who loves to play. He is very energetic and loves new games. I cannot host animals because of him but would love to go to your home and take care of your pets!

Safety, trust & environment

I am in an apartment with a kitten so would not like to bring animals into the home. But in my clients home I will be able to walk and enjoy the neighborhoods!

Carina is amazing!! She is so responsive and attentive to my cat’s individual needs, sends so many cute photos everyday, and gives complete updates so I can have peace of mind that my cat is taken care of while I’m away. Mushu also loves having her around when I’m gone. I always try to book with her if I can!!

Carina arrived early and did exactly as I had asked of her. It seemed the dogs took to her quickly, with my German Shepherd allowing her to give tummy rubs on first meeting! She sent me 6 pictures even though she was only here a short time. I plan to ask her to help me in the future again!

Super kind! She was great with Lucky and he seemed all tired out after his walk.

Carina was responsive and professional when setting up the appointment, and great to work with throughout our trip. I think our cats really enjoyed having her stop by. Would definitely use her services again!

Carina was amazing! I was a little worried about my cat in the house during hot weather, but photo updates and check ins from Carina were so reassuring. Will definitely reach out again if we’re out of town and our cat needs someone to check in!

I do not have preferences but I would like to know if the dogs are people/other dog friendly and are happy! Any allergies I need to be aware of? Favorite toys?
