Communication is key and I make sure to keep you updated with photos and messages about how your pet is doing. You can expect a personalized experience tailored to your fur baby’s unique personality and needs, ensuring they feel loved and cared for in your absence. Your peace of mind is my priority and I look forward to building a trusting relationship with both you and your fur baby. **FOR DOG WALKING: If you are within a 5 Mile radius from my home, I offer 5 walks a week for $100 from Monday through Friday.

Kara is amazing! She’s punctual and a great commuter and so good to our boy Hulk! She was gentle with him after recovering from his neuter and always makes sure he has water before she leaves. Highly recommend!

Kara took care of our pittie while our usual dog walker was away. She also provided clear updates, pictures and made sure our girl had enough water in her bowl before leaving. She was reliable and very responsive via text on Rover, which is important. We will definitely reach out again if we have any more dog walking needs. Definitely recommened if you are looking for a reliable walker!
