Pet care experience
Hi! My name’s Kara and I recently moved to Seattle- what better way to explore the city than with your pup (or kitty)? I am a former Veterinary Assistant at a local animal hospital, and I have professional experience working at a humane society as an Animal Care Tech, a locally owned pet store, and have volunteered in wildlife rehabilitation and other shelters. I’m well educated in animal nutrition and behavior, Fear Free Shelter certified, and confident in my abilities around animals of all sizes, temperaments, and needs! I am able to give oral and injectable medications, and administer subcutaneous fluids. I also have experience with cats, rodents, reptiles, aquatics, birds, and a lot more. I will make sure your furry friend(s) get all of the love and attention they so desire. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, comments, or if you would like to set up a time to meet! Have a great day :)
Reviews
We had the best experience with Kara! She gave regular updates and was so great with our dogs. We would love to work with her again and we highly recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter!
Kara did a great job of taking care of our big guy! She sent many pictures of him enjoying walks, relaxing on the deck, and generally having a good time. Kara also took care of his daily medication. We felt very satisfied with how she communicated with us. Kara also left the house very neat. We will certainly use Kara again!
Kara took excellent care of our 2 cats and dog over a long weekend. She stayed at our house and left everything clean and well taken care of. She was in constant communication with us and we would absolutely use her again!
Kara is fabulous! She's everything you want in someone taking care of your precious: punctual, communicative, friendly, and it is obvious both in person and via electronic communication that she loves animals. She will love YOUR animal. I received consistent updates and pictures, and it was clear that my kitty was in her comfort zone. Highly recommended!
About Kara K.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I approach your pets with a fear-free technique. Having your best friend feel comfortable with me is the most important thing, so I work to establish a positive bond between us! With lots of pets and, if you allow, treats. I will always leave your home better than I found it if housesitting, and can water plants if needed as well.
Information Kara K. would like to know about your pet
If there is any behavioral issues (aggression towards strangers, other dogs/animals, anxiety, etc). Any medications, ailments, or health concerns. Any allergies as well (food/environmental), and if you are ok with treats!
A typical day
Walks, runs, hikes, play time! I start off by greeting your pet with a positive attitude, to set the tone for the day. If we are going on a walk, I like to spent a few minutes before hand for them to get familiar with my presence and earn their trust. I’m currently exploring the Seattle area, and would love the company.
