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.

Information Kara H. would like to know about your pet

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?

A typical day

If your pup needs some exercise or just to stretch their legs, we will go on walks around the neighborhood for as long as needed! Any nearby parks would be great will be perfect to play and run around. If your dog is super high-energy we can go on short runs.

Caring for your pets like my own!

Pet care experience

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.

Kara did an amazing job watching my 2 cats!! She sent many pics and gave me good updates. She washed their food bowls and made sure they had plenty of water. Thank you Kara!!!

Kara was great with our Izzy during our vacation, and we were delighted with our daily collection of pictures. We’ll definitely book her again!

We really appreciated Kara's responsiveness and understanding when dealing with our cranky, aging cat!
