Pet care experience

MBA turning my passion for animals into a career :) I am organized, detail oriented, and will take care of your fur babies as if they were my own! I have experience with both large and small breed dogs, exotics (rabbits, ferrets, guinea pigs, gerbils), and cats. I have provided end of life care to senior dogs including the administration of medication post chemo/radiation therapies. Additionally, I have 3+ years experience in managing feline diabetes and have been trained to administer insulin via syringe.

Kara is an awesome petsitter. My husband and I have trusted Kara many times over the past six years to take care of our pet bunny. She's always communicative- sending lots of picture and videos during our pet's care. She's trustworthy and willing to ask questions to make sure she understands the ins and outs of what our pet's care should entail. She's kind and attentive with our pet, going above and beyond to make sure she feels loved while we're away. We couldn't recommend Kara highly enough!

Kara is an excellent with all animals and treats them as if they were her very own! My dog, Tucker loves seeing Kara and always excited for a walk with her. Kara is friendly, trustworthy and reliable. Highly recommend for any pet small and large!

You can count on Kara for being responsive, on time, and committed to the animals she takes care of. She has had many pets of her own (dogs, cats, rabbits) and she understands the care and attention they require. Kara is reliable and a clear communicator, which is extremely important in a person taking care of my pet, over and above her genuine love for animals. I would recommend Kara for your pet needs!

Kara is truly an animal person! She's had a variety of pets over the years, including dogs, cats, and rabbits. She's familiar with administering medicine/shots to animals with the diagnosis of her beloved cat, Beef Wellington, with diabetes several years ago. She's timely, trustworthy, and extremely dependable. I would wholeheartedly trust her to watch my animals while I am away.

I will provide walking services and in home visits/ care at your residence. I can provide care for small animals with their own enclosures on a case by case basis at my residence but please note I have two rabbits and a cat on premise.

Information Kara B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any quirks (i.e. doesn't like other dogs, pulls on the leash, is toy or food possessive). For cats, it is great for me to know about any tendencies to go outside of the litter box (and where so I can clean up these spots if it happens while you are away) and also if they are on the shyer side what hiding spots they can be found in. Additionally, please let me know if you would prefer I not post your pets on social media (never will take pictures in or right out front of your residence).

A typical day

Lots of attention (pets and scratches), games with their favorite toys, walks and visits to your pet's favorite places! Also happy to give baths to help keep your pet (and your home) clean.
