Highlights
Pet care experience
Love animals!
I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. Three years ago our black lab, Maddie, passed at age 15. Now I like to help other families care for their pets so they can enjoy getaways knowing their furry family members are loved. I also have experience with senior dogs and pets of all sizes. We do not have other pets or young children in our home.

Ratings and reviews
Excellent home and people to watch our pup. Highly recommend!

Kari & her husband were amazing with my Gracie! Kari sent daily pictures & really intergraded Gracie into their everyday life. I picked up a very happy & loved dog!! I will most definitely book again!!

Kari was great and very accommodating! Sent us photos and messages while she was there! We loved the communication where this was our first time using this service. We will definitely use Kari again and recommend her to our friends!

Kari and her family were wonderful Hosts to our Ollie. We will definitely rebook. Thank you Kari!!!

Total rock star sitter - could not recommend Kari any more highly! This was only Sadie‘s second time boarding in someone else’s home without me…I learned from my first experience that Sadie does not do great with other pets in the house… and, even though Kari’s was pet free, I was still trepidatious about trying another boarding situation in a strange (to my pup) home. My fears were immediately alleviated upon meeting and seeing Kari interact with Sadie and how she let Sadie explore around her wonderful home. Physical relief was all I felt when I left Sadie with her. Kari kept me informed each day with reports and pictures of what she and Sadie were doing, and I was never worried that Sadie was anxious or anything but completely comfortable. Seriously will make sure that Kari is available anytime I plan anything where I need to leave Sadie with someone for any reason! I think my girl had a great time and definitely was very well cared for. Cannot thank Kari and her family enough! ❤️❤️❤️

Kari was absolutely amazing with my dog! Maisy received lots of love and attention with long walks, fun games, snuggle time, and belly rubs - all of it right by Kari’s side ❤️ I received lots of photos and updates along the way, this was a match made in heaven, we would love to come back next summer!
