Animal lover and farm girl by heart

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Kara and I have a huge heart for animals! I have had animals all my life and can honestly say it would feel weird to not have a fur baby to take care of. I currently own 4 dogs and 2 cats. However not all of them live with me. My family owns land in Lizton (about 5 miles west of Brownsburg) and that is where the cats and 3 of the dogs live. I currently reside in an apartment in Brownsburg with my loving boyfriend and our dogs (his and mine). I often like to visit my family’s land to let my dogs explore.. safely of course as it is all fenced in. At my apartment complex we have a fenced in dog area, a nature reserve with trails across the street, and are very close to the B&O trail. I love to be outside and I bet your animals do too! In years past I participated and completed 10 years of dog 4-H (which included obedience training and some agility training). I’m currently enrolled at the Vet Tech Institute to become a registered veterinary technician. So weekdays I am gone from early morning to about midafternoon but often have my evenings and weekends free! As far as my experience goes I have taken care of all kinds of different animals of all ages. I don’t have a problem with commuting to your house to take care of your animals. That might even make them feel more comfortable. I don’t have an issue with cleaning up poop, pee, or throw up. All I need is the proper supplies! With me being in veterinary studies I have experience with administering pills/capsules and liquids to dogs and cats. I also have experience with giving injections. I am familiar with dog and cat behavior as well. So I can often tell when they are in discomfort. If you have specific instructions for you pet(s) I will happily complete them! My main goal is to keep your pet(s) happy and healthy and everyone stress free! I am happy to send pictures and/or videos for updates and answer any questions you might have.

Kara was great to work with! Very flexible and friendly. She obviously loves working with animals and was very comfortable with our dogs. We are super glad to meet Kara and hopefully can use her services again!

Safety, trust & environment

I believe in keeping the animal(s) on their normal schedule as much as possible in order to minimize stress. So I’m willing to take care of your animals your way! All I need is specific written instructions and I will be set.

Information Kara T. would like to know about your pet

I HIGHLY ask that you make me aware of any behaviors and/or illnesses your pet has prior to me entering your home! I also request a list of emergency contact numbers including your current vet. If I am unable to reach you I also appreciate directions or having an advocate for bigger decisions. If you prefer to do a meet and greet prior to when you’ll need care I am happy to do so. Safety is very important to me!

A typical day

I will do what the animal enjoys to do. Whether that be walks, indoor toy sessions, or cuddles. I want the animal to be comfortable with me. If you would like your pet to be cleaned for when you arrive home I will happily bathe and/or groom them!
