I am a dog lover!

Pet care experience

I lived & worked in Gig Harbor, Washington from 2015 to 2020. I now live in Port Orchard. I have found that most Dogs would rather stay in the comfort of their own home rather than have to stay at an unknown kennel. So I am happy to go to their homes and stay with them while their Humans are out of town. K9 NANNY Overnight at your house 1 night 1 dog/70.00 Multi-dog discount 2nd dog ad /30.00 Example 2 dogs 1 night/100.00 per night. (For the first 5 nights) Extended stay Discount On the 6th night, I give an extended stay discount if you are gone for more than 5 nights 6th night 1 dog/60.00 2nd dog ad/20.00 Example: 2 dogs 6th night/80.00 per night. (6th night and every night till you return) Whatever your dog's normal routine is, I do my best to make him feel like things are as normal as I can. Walks, downtime, meal time, everything is considered. Even if you have a Veterinarian appointment I can drive them to their appointment. Whatever your need is for your pet I will do the best to accommodate. K9-Nanny Kara I work from home part-time so I simply bring my laptop to your home and work from there. I adjust to your dog's needs if he/she needs a lot of interaction or walks or if they just want to nap I can be very quiet. I will respect your home like I would my own. Safety is my number one priority and I will do everything I can to keep your pet and your home safe.

Our pups have always received the best care with Kara. Kara is excellent at providing updates, and we come home to two happy pups. We highly recommend Kara!

Safety, trust & environment

Because I watch pets in their own homes the safety issues are already in place and set up by the owners. I will ensure that your animals remain secure and well cared for just as you do.

Information Kara S. would like to know about your pet

Most of my Client's dogs are precious in their own way. They either have a fear of humans and or other dogs. Kenneling them is usually not an option without a considerable amount of anxiety. So my Clients prefer I come and spend the night in their homes while they are out of town so there's no undue stress for them or their beloved pet.

A typical day

I'm very laid back and can set your dog at ease. I will send you at least one text with your dog's photo every day. I will be in contact with you if I notice anything that might be unusual. I will try to make it just like it is when you are home and if you let your Dog sleep on your bed so will I. I will bring my own food, well, I may have some of your ice cream. :) I will leave your house at least as clean as it was when I got there and I will clean the sheets and put them back on the bed if time permits. Your dogs will love having 'Auntie' Kara over for a visit and will hardly know you are gone, I'm sorry and you're welcome. :)
