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.

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!

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!

Kari was wonderful. Treated our 5 year old golden retriever to a day of snuggles and walks. She was also so accommodating and flexible with our crazy schedule. Highly recommend Kari as a loving and awesome dog sitter. Thank you Kari!! Love, Hula and the Finck Family

I felt completely safe and secure leaving my Australian terrier with Kari for a couple of nights. She sent lots of updates and pictures, which was great since it was his first time at her house. He was happy as a clam and made himself right at home! I will for sure ask Kari whenever I am in need of a sitter!

There are also many walking trails in our neighborhood for long walks. Happy to arrange pick up and drop off services within a reasonable distance.
