Safety, trust & environment
Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Through my professional experience I've learned how to read canine body language, recognize signs of stress or illness, and adapt my care to each pet's individual needs. I closely follow your pet's normal routine, keep a clean and secure environment, and provide regular photo updates so you can feel confident they're receiving excellent care while you're away.
Information Karah H. would like to know about your pet
Before a booking, I'd love to know about your pet's daily routine, feeding schedule, medications, favorite activities, and any behavioral quirks or medical concerns. Please let me know if they have any fears, anxiety, leash reactivity, resource guarding, escape tendencies, or anything else that helps me provide the safest and most comfortable experience possible. The more I know about your pet, the better I can care for them.
A typical day
Every pet is different, so I tailor my care to their personality and energy level. We might enjoy walks, fetch, tug, enrichment games, training reinforcement, or simply relaxing together with plenty of affection. Whether your pet prefers adventure or a quiet day at home, my goal is to keep them happy, mentally engaged, and comfortable while maintaining their normal routine.

Experienced Pet Care Professional
Pet care experience
Hi! I'm Karah, and I'm 25 years old. I've been caring for animals for over 10 years and have more than 6 years of professional experience working with dogs. Throughout my career, I've worked in boarding, daycare, grooming, and training environments, giving me experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Most recently, I worked overnight at a professional dog training facility, where I was trusted to independently supervise and care for multiple dogs throughout the night. That experience taught me to recognize changes in behavior, respond calmly in unexpected situations, and ensure every dog remained safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners were away. I'm comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, giant breeds, and dogs with special needs, and I'm experienced administering both oral and injectable medications. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, enrichment activities, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I'll make sure they receive the individual attention and care they deserve. I'm currently a full-time college student, and pet care allows me to continue doing work I'm passionate about while pursuing my degree. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, and my goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family!

Reviews
Karah was great! She sent daily pictures and I could tell my dogs were well taken care of. She even left some toys for them after she left! I will definitely be reaching out to her the next time I’m needing a dog sitter!
Karah was wonderful! I have 2 older cats and one needs insulin twice daily. My 2 old girls can make quite a mess of their (5!) litter boxes, but each one was clean with no sign odor. Karah sent pics daily and always texted before and after each visit. Cheerful and reliable, I hope to use her again
Karah came on short notice to help when 1) The first handyman who was going to install a dog door canceled, and 2) My stubborn dogs who have had a dog door for 13 years decided they didn’t wanna use this new one. She stayed pretty much all day one day and came for a visit the next day and thought my dogs to use the dog door while I was gone at work, thank goodness. I think I’ll ask her to stop in for one visit on future work days and I hope she’ll be available! She took cute pictures of my dogs too.
Karah is such a sweet girl! She is very responsible and caring for our babies, after meeting her we would never even think about hiring someone else! WE LOVE KARAH!
