Grew up with a cat but then got my own dog. He had behavior and anxiety and was able to work with this. I'm also comfortable with giving oral and injections

Hello, I may show a bias being Kara's father, but you couldn't find a more caring, kind, and compassionate person to both people and animals. Kara's full time profession for the past 12 years is that of being an RN/Charge nurse, which she takes very seriously and is very conscientious to her profession of taking care of people in their time of injury and sickness. Growing up we only had one household pet, which was a cat named Snuggles. Kara loved Snuggles as we all did and she always dreamed of owning a dog, but during this time it was discovered that our son was severely allergic to pet dander. Because of this unfortunate fact, when snuggles passed away we could not have any more household pets. This didn't deter Kara and when she bought her own home after college, she started researching dog breeds and she picked a Golden Doodle that she named Meeko. Kara loved Meeko with all her heart and spent much of her free time on walks with him at many local parks & trails and on planned hikes in Northern Minnesota. Unfortunately Meeko got very sick after only 5 happy years and with the guidance of her vet and specialist facility, Kara had to make the emotionally wrenching decision to have Meeko euthanized. While Kara fully plans to have another 4-legged friend in her family in the future, she is currently ready to be a loving and compassionate caregiver and dog walker to your special family pet.
