Pet care experience

First and foremost, I absolutely adore animals. I've been pet-sitting animals of all shapes and sizes for over 10 years and have worked with dogs and cats professionally at a groomers. I started out pet-sitting just for friends and neighbors as a kid until those people began recommending me to their friends and neighbors. Now I'm everyone's go-to petsitter. I'm well versed in administering insulin and other medications should your pet require them, and I pay very close attention to your animal's behavior. I don't get queasy. I've been bitten by dogs, scratched by cats, I've had to clean up pet vomit, and I've provided basic first aid to animals in an emergency. Whether your dog is a lovey dovey shih-tzu or a standoff-ish rottweiler, I have the skills and experience to provide your pup with plenty of love and care. I'm also an experienced exotic pet owner so if you have any other pets along with your cat or dog that need attention I can provide that service as well.

My dog, Sahara, loves Kara! Recently, we were coming home from a walk and Kara was sitting on the front steps waiting for us. I was distracted and didn't notice her, but as we approached our house, Sahara almost pulled her leash out of my hand in her eagerness to greet Kara.

Kara has watched my dogs at my house multiple times while I am out of town. She's reliable and cares about them. They're always excited to see her. I have one dog with separation anxiety who is a handful. And another older dog who has daily medication. She still loves taking care of them even with their "special needs".
