I had to think long and hard before leaving this review. Since I know other pet parents treat their dogs as their own children, I thought I should be completely honest and transparent in this review. Kara earned 3 stars today as my dog came back with health. Yesterday I messaged her at 4pm asking for any news or updates on my dogs stay. She didn't reply. I tried calling later in the night, and no response as well. Only today in the morning she responded, explaining she was busy, and apologized. My last negative experience was when retrieving the items I left with her. I packed 4 days worth of food for my dog, and explained in detailed messages the portions that should be given. After only 1 day, no food came back to us. Tl;dr - Kara seems to be a really nice person. She has her own pets and seem to love them. I didn't find her responsible enough to take care of mine.

Kara did a great job taking care of our dog while we were away! She was friendly, provided regular updates, and had him socialize with some other dogs while we were away
