Pet care experience

Caring for your pets like my own!

I've cared for 3 cats for the last 9 years but I've walked dogs for family and friends since I was a teenager. Friends and family have relied on me to check-in and care for feed and walk their pets while away on trips. I've even administered medication when given thorough instructions. I make a strong effort to take daily walks that are at least an hour long so having a pet companion with me would be perfect. I am currently working remotely so fortunately my schedule is pretty flexible. I am available just about all days except for Tuesday and Thursday mornings. I have three cats that I keep indoors to ensure their safety so I am experienced in keeping animals securely inside as I enter or exit a home. I prioritize cleaning up messes and making sure water is accessible and clean for your pet while you are away.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

For drop-in visits, I will make sure food and water are set and assess if any clean-up is needed. I know your fur babies can get lonely when you're away so as long as they are comfortable with it, I'll provide snuggles and love.

Kara was excellent with our boys! She sent lots of pictures each day and knew which was which (impressive since they are all 3 black cats!). She was professional and stayed for 30 minutes with our pets each day. I couldn't recommend her enough!!

Our cat Savannah can be moody, but we can always rely on Kara to make sure she is comfortable and taken care of when we are away. Thank you so much, Kara!

I had a great experience when Kara watched my cat Franny while I was out of town for a few days! She is extremely responsive, sends amazing updates, and informs me of any issues and concerns. Franny was well cared for and a happy girl when I came back from my trip! I highly recommend Kara to care for your pets! :)

Schedule

I currently work from home, with a flexible schedule, and I have a habit of long walks for my health and fitness. I'd be happy to take your pup along with me for exercise and playtime!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Kara can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I need to know how long they typically can walk for and what their energy level is. Are they trained on a leash? Do I need to pay attention to any medical-related issues or injuries while on walks? How are they around other animals typically?
