I live in a pet-friendly apartment and am just steps away from several parks-perfect for walks, playtime, and potty breaks. The building is secure and quiet, and I always create a calm, comfortable environment for your pet. I can also crate your dog if needed and follow any specific routines to help them feel right at home.

Information Kara K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, routines, or quirks I should know about. I want to make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m open to all breeds and especially love dogs who need a little extra attention or patience.

A typical day

I love keeping your dog active and happy! We’ll go for walks, play games, and check out all the fun sights and smells around the neighborhood. If your dog enjoys the park, we’ll spend time exploring a big one nearby. At home, I make sure there’s a good mix of play, rest, and cuddles.

Reliable & Loving Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and temperaments since I was 10. With over 8 years of experience, I’ve been trusted by friends, family, and neighbors to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. Whether it’s energetic puppies or gentle senior dogs, I always treat them like my own-with patience, love, and attention to detail.

Kara is FANTASTIC! She has sat for our little pitbull sisters numerous times now. Each time she has shown herself to be completely reliable, responsible and extremely warm and caring! Our girls adore her and we think the world of Kara!!!

Working with Kara was wonderful! She took very good care of our somewhat needy senior dog. And we returned to a happy and healthy pup! We will definitely request her assistance the next time we travel!
