Round the clock care and love!

Pet care experience

I work from home and my pets are my children! You don't have to worry about your baby being crated and forgotten with me, and I will gladly send as many photos or videos as you want! I know I would be worried about leaving mine, and want you to feel completely confident that your babies are receiving the best care. I currently have 2 pups of my own, so we can do a meet and greet to make sure they get along well. I also have adequate space to keep them separated if necessary. I have a small fenced in patio, with a pet potty area, and I live minutes away from a park where my doggos love to walk! When the weather allows, we usually walk twice a day, and squeeze in trips to the dog park whenever possible. If your pet is up for the exercise, they can walk with us, or remain at home in the AC if they're not moving as well as they used to. I've taken care of newborn litters, elderly pups, and everything in between. I can promise your baby will be spoiled and loved!

Kari was amazing with out senior dachshund. She has excellent dog introduction skills and our little man joined her pack no problem. Henry is on meds, can be sneaky with food, and a little prickly but she knew exactly how to make him comfortable, keep him out of trouble, and make him part of the pack during his stay. We’re so happy we found her and we are absolutely going to have her sit for us again. If we could give her six stars we would!

Kari was awesome! Can't say enough good things about her. She walked my dog Portugal for a week while I was at work & really got him his exercise & attention he needed. She showed up early and even stayed later. Sent multiple pictures during their walks & always made sure he had water when she left. She really went above & beyond. Will be using her again & I highly recommend her for anyone else looking.

My sister Kari has cared for my pets multiple times. When my first dog had puppies, she kept them while I worked and made sure the mom and babies were all happy and healthy. My dogs love visiting with her and her dogs, and she treats all animals as if they were her own pets. Your pets will be well cared for with her!

Safety, trust & environment

I can adjust to your pet's needs! My dogs have access to my whole house, and my back patio with potty corner is fenced in. When walking I use a safety link for an additional back up in case of collar/harness mishaps. We can talk about appropriate treats and schedule for your pet, but we already are rawhide free, and have healthy treat options for sensitive stomachs. My pets have crates, but rarely use them and sleep in bed with me.

Information Kari A. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know ahead of time if your dog has any special needs or medications. I am used to large and small breeds, and have experience with both puppies and elderly dogs. If your pets are staying with me for an extended time, I would love to do a meet and greet with mine so we can be sure they get along well!

A typical day

I have a senior dog and an active puppy! So I am used to caring for both high and low energy babies! We love going on hikes, to dog parks, and to the park nearest our home for daily walks. Depending on your dogs needs and your preferences, we can design a schedule where your dog is happy and busy!

I work nights, so my pets are basically my life. I'm home all day and really only leave for short trips out. If I go anywhere for more than 3 hours, the fur babes come with me.
