Active, experienced dog handler

Pet care experience

I have been around dogs my entire life. I grew up with dogs in my family home and trained them. While I was in school, I volunteered at multiple humane societies walking all the dogs and handling dogs at events. I now have two dogs of my own, Toby and Maverick. I am experienced at training dogs and have attended training classes with my dogs. I love being active with dogs. My dogs ski, hike, run, and paddle board with me! I’d love to get to know your dog and give them some exercise or whatever other needs they might have.

Kara was fabulous with our dogs and cats. She communicated well, and took great care of the fur kids. I would recommend her and hope to work with her again.

Kara is a thoughtful, caring, and attentive pet caregiver. She has a lot of patience with puppies and dogs in training. Her own dogs are perhaps the two most well-behaved dogs I have ever met, a testament to her dedication and love for them. I have entrusted Kara with the care of my pets many times and would do so anytime in the future.

I would highly recommend Kara S to care for your dogs and other furry pets. Kara has a real compassion for dogs and a level of commitment that is above and beyond. Her attention to detail lets me have piece of mind that everything is being taken care of even when I am not at home. Kara S. is quick to solve problems, uses common sense, and always puts your pets well being at the forefront of each decision. You should consider Kara S. when making your next choice for pet-sitting and dog walking.

Having had the pleasure of knowing Kara for several years I can wholeheartedly attest to her exceptional talent and passion for working with dogs. Being a dog owner myself, I have witnessed Kara display an extraordinary ability to connect with just about every furry companion she has met. I’ve seen Kara go above and beyond to ensure the well-being and happiness of pets under her care. Kara’s unwavering commitment to provide love, attention, and a safe environment is truly commendable. I have the utmost confidence in Kara when it comes to pet care. I highly recommend you consider Kara as your first option when looking for a caregiver for your four legged best friend(s).
