Kara was extremely helpful and even last minute! So grateful for her and would love to have her check on my boys any day.

My dog loves Kara! Which is the highest compliment I can give because my dog is a shy and picky girl ❤️

Kara was kind and sweet with Macy. Super easy to work with, sent updates without me even having to ask, and clearly cared. Macy is on the tail end of life, and having someone like Kara give her love dampens the blow if being gone.
