Spreading happiness 1 paw at a time

Pet care experience

My deep affection for dogs is evident in the way I interact with them. I form a genuine bond with each furry friend, providing them with not just physical care but also emotional support and companionship. I understand that every dog is unique and has specific needs. I take the time to learn about each dog's personality, preferences, and any special requirements they may have. This allows me to provide personalized care and attention, ensuring the utmost comfort and happiness of dogs I'm with. If you ask any of my friends or family, I always trying to find a dog to pet or to talk to. The serotonin boosts on both ends is impalpable!

Kara was great. On time, patient with a puppy who does an excited pee when he meets new people, and gave a good recap.

Such a great first experience with Kara and my sassy girl Peanut. I returned to a pup in a great mood who had been very obviously cared for. Looking forward to Kara and Peanut continuing their journey to being BFFs.

Kara was exceptionally patient and understanding when Quinn would not come out of her crate for a walk. Kara was also in regular touch to let me know everything she was doing to make Quinn feel comfortable and cared for. We will definitely have Kara walk Quinn again and hope that she can watch our sweet girl overnight when we have upcoming travel!!

Information Kara R. would like to know about your pet

Please confirm if dog has any dietary restrictions or specific food preferences. In order to create a safe and comfortable environment for the dog and to take appropriate precautions, tell me a little about your baby's behavior, temperament, and any specific triggers that may cause anxiety or aggression.

A typical day

I almost like parks as much as dogs do, so I will always be down to go to any park, especially those where they can socialize, play, and enjoy the outdoors in a safe and supervised environment. There are also several pet-friendly cafes and restaurants with outdoor seating, and I'd love nothing more to be accompanied by a doggy! Maybe we'll even grab a pup cup after❤️ Cuddling is definitely considered a fun activity as well!
