Pet care experience
I have always had a pet ever since I can remember. I grew up with an energetic chocolate Lab and a moody Dachshund. I also had a rescue Shar Pei who was both gentle and had a bark that could chase away any ghost. Currently I have an anxiety driven but very lovable Lab mix and four mischievous longhair cats. I take a walk everyday with my wife and our lab. I know many different routes that your pup would enjoy! Also I am a huge cat lover! I even have an catstagram for my four furry felines. Covid-19 safety procedures: I do require a meet and greet before the drop-in visit or walk. This is how we make sure I can give the best care possible and so your pet(s) can meet me and be more comfortable. During the meet and greet I require everyone except your furry friend to wear a mask!
Reviews
Kara is a masterful cat whisperer. Izzy and Quiggle loved her! Peace of mind is priceless when we are away, and Kara provided it. The regular notes, photos and videos from Kara were perfect. She is dependable, bright, took excellent care of our cats, and loves what she does. She even managed to get our very shy cat to come out of hiding and cuddle with her. That's unheard of! She goes above and beyond the basics--we are rebooking with her!
Kara is amazing! She always sends kind and detailed notes from her visits, and I love her picture updates. I have a 9 week old puppy, who can be a LOT sometimes (thank goodness she’s cute) and Kara has been great with her. I couldn’t recommend her more.
Kara was amazing. I really appreciated her attentiveness, videos and photos. I would gladly recommend her to anyone.
Kara did an amazing job with Stella, Storm and Zeus. She was patient and was able to get my picky and nervous Chihuahua to eat! I appreciated all the great pictures and text updates. We look forward to having her sit for us again!!

Safety, trust & environment
I will be visiting your pet and keeping them comfortable in their own home for either drop -in visits or a walk around your neighborhood.
Information Kara K. would like to know about your pet
How are they on walks? Do they need anything special (harness, treats or outerwear... etc). Are they dog selective and need lots of space when passing other animals? Are treats allowed or do they have diet restrictions? Is there anything that they really enjoy?!
A typical day
We will go on walks around the neighborhood making sure to stop and smell the roses... or maybe that's just where the dogs previously marked (hahaha)
Services
Kara can watch in your home
Availability
I am a substitute teacher with a very flexible schedule and live near downtown Grand Rapids. I can be available throughout the day and into the early evening for walking or visiting with your dog and or cat. If your dog needed a late night potty break I could make that happen!
