Pet care experience

Your pets vacation!

I’m a certified veterinary assistant and I currently work as a kennel attendant and pet care employee. I take classes at Reynolds community college and in high school, i was apart of the veterinarian science center. I have experience with all animals including cats, dogs, reptiles, rodents, ferrets, and amphibians. I foster animals and I take pride in what I do. I’m determined to break the stereotype that teens aren’t good workers. I’m not squeamish about poop, vomit, or bugs if you have a reptile in need of a snack! I currently have pets of my own including a bearded dragon, a dog, two rabbits, a hamster, hermit crabs and fish. If you have a dog who pulls on a leash, no need to worry I’m strong, and learned the proper techniques. If you have a cat or dog with separation anxiety, don’t worry. Any animal is welcome to sleep on my bed. Please ask any questions about your specific pets and I’ll be sure to get back to you.

Kara was phenomenal with my dog who has bad anxiety. She was very patient with him and took care of him like he was her own. Highly recommend her service!!

Kara is wonderful! She stays in touch and sends plenty of photos. My pup seems to love her, and she leaves my house in great shape!

Kara took care of our dog and cat during our housesitting booking. She was amazing! She was so sweet and attentive to our quirky girls. Kara is very responsible and responsive, and we loved her daily photo updates! It was so reassuring knowing our girls were in great hands!

Kara did a great job taking care of my kitties during our housesitting booking. She was able to administer the medicine for both cats easy enough, handle their unique feeding instructions, and kept me updated with photos!

Kara was absolutely amazing. I have a dog with seizures who I hadn’t left in anyone’s care for a year since he got the diagnosis. He was on a lot of medicines and I had a hard time trusting anyone to stay on top of his medication schedule. Kara did a phenomenal job. Not only did she stay on top of his medicines for 2 weeks (giving me a huge mental break from his care) but also truly loved him and spoiled him while I was gone. I didn’t expect her to form such a loving, close bond but it was obvious she pours her heart into this work. Kara is absolutely a great caregiver and you can rest easy your pet is getting the love and care it needs in her hands while you’re gone.

Safety, trust & environment

If your pet is staying at my house, I’ll be sure to provide the proper care. Reach out to me and we can talk about your specific pets/species. If you have a dog he/she is more than welcome to sleep in my bed and I will provide walks in the morning and night. A meet and greet is required since I have a dog. My dog gets along with anyone but I’d like to see if they’ll be a good match. My family’s always home and your dog will never be alone. As for daily check ins, I’ll check on your pet at home and provide the proper care, including walks. If i’m staying at your house, I’m respectful to other people’s property. I understand what it’s like being away from your pet and I won’t shy away if you have cameras in your home.

Pets

A typical day

It depends on the specific pet. I love to go on walks/runs with dogs and I love to play tag, tug of war, and fetch with dogs. Any animal is welcome on my lap if they just want to relax.

Kara can host up to 4 pets per night
If you’re boarding at my house, a meet and greet is required since I have a dog and rabbits. I can work with aggressive animals, however I would feel more comfortable going to your house so your pet is still comfortable in the environment.
