I highly recommend a meet and greet so the pet(s) gets used to me and I get an idea of their personality. I will also do a quick briefing on any health problems I should know before hand, certain procedures that are common place for your pet to ensure they're comfortable with me and make sure we are on the same page for care.

Information Karelys S. would like to know about your pet

Any triggers on walks? Is your pet friendly to other animals? Can they handle going to a park? Does your pet have any medications or health problems I need to know? Any food or medication allergies? How is your baby during storms? How is your furry friend around new people? Any specific instructions I need to follow?

A typical day

FOR WALKS: I'll come with a positive attitude and make sure your doggie is ready for a fun time to get rid of any excess energy! Depending on how well they do with other dogs, we can go to a dog park and hang around there for a while. If not, then a simple walk around the neighborhood or other areas will be good enough! FOR PET SITTING: I'll come at the approved times for visits or more if your pet is extra nervous about being by themselves for too long. I will provide frequent potty breaks and give all the love and attention to your pets that they want! Water and food bowls will be changed frequently. I'll provide plenty of updates and photos throughout my stay. FOR BOARDING: All of the above plus lots of love 💖🐶🐱

Karelys is a very caring and thoughtful sitter. She sent pictures from the moment we left up to minutes before we returned. She is communicative, responsive, and exceptionally accommodating (I requested no other dogs to be around and not to put him in a cage). I would certainly book with her again.

had an amazing experience! She took such great care of Max and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She is bilingual, super sweet, and very communicative. I loved that she sent me frequent updates, messages, and pictures of Max it really meant a lot to me. You can tell she genuinely cares for the pets she looks after.

We had a great experience leaving Lunna with Karelys. Lunna was very happy when we picked her up. Before leaving Lunna with Karelys we had to implement a strict diet for Lunna and Karelys helped us get Lunna on the diet with great results when we picked her up. We are confident next time we need the best loving care for Lunna, Karelys will do an outstanding job.
