Pet care experience

Pro Trainer/Stay at Home Mom🐾

I have been a professional dog trainer since 2001 and I love dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments! I have a ton of patience. I have had pets all my life and have always loved animals. I enjoyed a rewarding career training dogs and their humans. I now have three awesome human babies as well and enjoy the flexibility of staying home with them.

Kari always does a great job taking care of your pet in my case a dog. Even takes pictures of your pet so you can also see your dog having fun with her family. Highly recommend. Thanks again !!!

Kari is just the best! She always takes such great care of Winnie, and it’s so evident in how excited Winnie gets when we drop her off. She always looks so comfortable and happy in all of the pictures Kari sends, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. It’s always such a great feeling knowing Winnie is in the best hands!!

Pets

A typical day

During your pup's stay with me, they can have access to any of our furniture, can romp in the yard, play with the other dogs, chase toys, and enjoy lots of love. Every pet that stays with me becomes like part of my family.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Non-neutered males accepted, spayed females only
No females in heat
Crate-trained dogs only
Kari can host up to 2 pets per night
Please let me know ahead of time if your pup has ever had any fear-issues and/or aggression with children or dogs. I also need to know if they are comfortable being in a kennel for short periods if need be. We are at home a lot, but if we go out, I want your pet to be safe while unsupervised.
