Pet care experience

Long-standing crazy dog lady

My main priority when caring for animals is their safety. When a new person or animal meets your dog, there are lots of emotions occurring. Precautions have to be taken to ensure those emotions stay positive! I have a reactive dog of my own at home, so life revolves around her safety at all times. This requires excellent attention to detail of a dog’s body language. While your pet is under my care, I pay strict attention to your their eating and drinking, sleeping habits, and bowel movements. I vow to keep your animals safe when they are in my care. I provide picture updates, videos, and text messages throughout my visit. If your pets need walks around the neighborhood, we will always keep our distance from strangers (which includes adults, children, and animals) to prevent any unsettling interactions. I provide care to animals by strictly following your directions and instruction. I am happy to administer any medications as well.

Kara did a fantastic job caring for my pets and our home! We have a pig and a cat and they seem to have taken to her right away! I don’t think we were even missed! Everyone was very happy when we came home. The house looked great. She even watered our garden and handled random house issues with ease. We will definitely use her again!

Kara is truly the most kind, loving, caring human being. I feel very, very lucky to have her in my life to care for my animals of all shapes and sizes. She is compassionate and will go above and beyond. Truly one of a kind!

I want to know as much detail about your pup as you can provide! I want routines to remain as normal and consistent as possible. I provide a checklist for you to fill out on basic information, emergency contacts, your dog's likes/dislikes, feeding/potty/walk schedule, and more! I love all breeds and don't have any restrictions.
