Cheerful &Considerate Walker/Sitter

Pet care experience

My name is Kara and I recently moved from Ohio where I lived for 3 years and walked/pet sat in their homes dozens of dogs. I love caring for fur cuties and long walks. I grew up with many dogs and dogsat since my childhood so have a great sense of many pet personalities. I am open for walks and other sitting needs per request. I want your pet to enjoy the walk or play as much as I do. I will not groom, but am happy to take on any pet related tasks per request. In my recent years, I have lived near cats and am loving their personalities too. I am relationship-centered, so I want to care for your furry family the way you do. Let me know in advance with instructions and I am happy to provide that same care!

Kara was amazing! This was our first time traveling without our dogs and we knew didn’t want to board them. I was hesitant to leave them at home with a stranger just because one of our dogs can be a bit temperamental. We met with her to ease my nerves and they all instantly loved her! She sent us some pictures of the dogs relaxed and happy at home. I will definitely book her again!

Kara took on a big assignment with our two English Mastiffs and 2 rescue cats. She followed all instructions, was communicative, and brought loving kindness to our nervous Mastiff foster. We returned to a clean house and happy pets. We will definitely use Kara again in the future!

Kara did a good job with my high needs senior dog and two cats. We were gone for over a week and she was very responsive and sent great pictures and gave good information while we were gone about the pets. Would definitely have her back again

Kara was great! Our family usually cares for our dog while we vacation but due to a sudden medical event they were unable to walk her. Kara communicated regularly and made this so easy and worry free. Our dog was excited to see her every time.
