Experienced Pet Handler

Pet care experience

I grew up on a farm so I have plenty of experience with a variety of animals! I was also the Columbia County Dog Training President and trained dogs through my 4-H group for 10 years as I have always had a passion for animals. I have a history with dogs, cats, farm animals, and nearly all small pets (fluffy, feathered, or scales!). I have often taken in rescues in my life and pride myself in treating your pets as my own. Rates are negotiable depending on service needed and distance. My own current pets include a cat, 8 guinea Pigs, 2 parakeets, and fish. As my cat has separation anxiety, at this time I am not accepting long overnights (3+nights) thank you for understanding! :)

Karalynn was an amazing cat sitter! Not only did she professionally care for my cat, Edgar Allan, she sent reassuring pictures so I didn’t worry. I had only had Edgar for about 3 months when I went on vacation. He was a bit shy of strangers but I could tell from pictures that he enjoyed her visits & her “play time.” I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone & will look forward to using her services again.

Thank you Karalynn for tending to my kitty while I was away. Your visits helped to keep Rue’s stress level down and she clearly enjoyed your attention from the photos you sent to me. 😻

Kara is fantastic!! Right from the beginning with the meet and greet I knew I picked the right pet sitter. I was away for 6 days and Kara did a daily drop in service for my cat, Rue. My cat needs meds for skin allergies and she was able to stay on her prescribed dosage the entire time. Kara provided great care to Rue. Stress and being off of the meds can create flare ups of sores. Rue was happy and healthy when I returned home. Kara sent pictures every day and I could see that Rue had bonded with Kara immediately! I was able to share the daily pictures with my family as we traveled and it was a treat to look forward to seeing how Rue was doing. The human contact and playtime that Kara provided kept Rue’s stress level down and the meds she was able to administer kept Rue healthy. What a relief it was to me knowing Rue had such a great caregiver. I will definitely be using Kara again for future trips away from home.

I have knowledgeable leash handling skills for dog walking and have gone through dog fight safety training in the event a dog becomes reactive. With my large expanse of animal handling I am able to stay calm and collected if there were any issues or follow specific instructions from the owner. I am also experienced with handling animals as large as horses or as small as bugs! I treat your pets as special as my own, I am even working on a scrapbook! I follow instructions and boundaries thoroughly to give your family the best experience possible.

Information Karalynn C. would like to know about your pet

I have experience doing basic veterinary care and dog training. If the dog is reactive please let me know any behaviors that I should be aware of.

A typical day

I love exploring the town especially any parks or walking areas nearby. I am an active person and have many ideas regarding mental exercises for indoors and outdoors for a variety of animal types (training,games,etc).
