Walks, adventures, and love!!

Pet care experience

I am an animal lover and absolutely love caring for them! I have always worked with and been around dogs, I worked at a boarding/grooming/daycare facility for about 4 years, I now walk and sit animals full time, I am currently in school to get my degree in animal science. My dad has been a professional dog trainer for about 35 years in which he rehabilitated dogs who were not seen fit to be in society and some he even trained to be police dogs! I was taught to handle and care for these dogs so I am experienced with many different temperaments and behaviors :) I currently have 1 dog and 1 cat, I have had many different breeds of dogs, cats, ive also had a bearded dragon so know how to care for reptiles as well if needed! I am experienced in taking care of puppies (including newborn) as well! I can give any medications if need be and will go above and beyond for your babies! I am looking forward to meeting and caring for all of your pets!

Kara did a wonderful job. She was always on time and communicated about all the fun Zoey had with her. My son couldn't wait to see the pictures each day. Thanks for taking care of our fur baby!

My cat stayed at Kara's while we were gone for Christmas and they took such great care of him! I also got pictures everyday to let me know how it was going which was awesome.

I love to make your vacation your dogs vacation too! Playing inside with toys, going for long walks, exploring with them, letting them sniff around, and of course lots of attention, scratches, and cuddles! I normally only take one boarding client at a time so your dog/dogs will get all of the attention and care they need! I have a large 2 bedroom apartment, I let my dog out to go to the bathroom about 4 times a day but can adjust depending on the dog, I typically go for one long walk a day as well. While away, I typically separate the dogs not apart of the same pack. For bedtime, everyone gets to sleep in the bed with me if they prefer, or I have spare dog beds set out for them on the ground.
