Kari can care for
Availability
I work remotely full-time which provides an abundance of flexibility to attentively care for dogs during the day and evenings. My schedule includes Zoom call meetings and phone calls that are sporadic during each day - no two days are the same. With this flexibility, my pet care typically looks like letting the dog out for potty breaks every few hours, feeding twice per day, taking daily walk, observing and correcting behavior that occurs during the day (ex. barking, potty training, chewing) and of course the frequent pets, belly rubs, and playtime sprinkled in between meetings and work calls.

Safety, trust & environment
I handle walks, potty breaks, feeding, brushing, baths, giving medication (pill form) and both indoor and outdoor stimulation activities. I've completed obedience 1 training and enjoy practicing commands like name recognition, sit, stay, lay down, drop it, leave it, and leash walking. I can lift 60lbs if needed.
Information Kari H. would like to know about your pet
Overall temperment, ability to be around another dog, any triggers for aggression, any other behaviors I should be aware of - I like to meet dogs where they are at to ensure they are more comfortable and feel safe.
A typical day
Indoor stimulation- hide and seek with favorite ball or toy, playful wrestling/petting, lick pads/kongs. Outdoor stimulation- catch with ball, hide and seek, dog parks, walks with time to sniff.

Pet care experience
Dogs have been part of my life forever, from growing up with a variety of breeds and sizes in my family to now caring for my own rescue yellow lab. I love caring for dogs at all ages, whether it's puppies full of energy or senior dogs who need extra TLC. I handle walks, potty breaks, feeding, brushing, baths, giving medication (pill form) and both indoor and outdoor stimulation activities. I've completed obedience 1 training and enjoy practicing commands like name recognition, sit, stay, lay down, drop it, leave it, and leash walking. I can lift 60lbs if needed and make sure every dog feels loved, entertained, and truly at home while their humans are away. Friends and family always ask me to watch their dogs because they know I'll give them love, attention, and safe, happy care - and I'm excited to extend that same care to more dogs and their family in my community through Rover. *Please note that I will require for my dog to come with me for any stays - she is an 8 year old yellow lab that is very laid back and gets along with all dogs. I am more than happy to set up a meet and greet with her in advance*
Reviews
Kari is kind, considerate, and a wonderful sitter! She was very communicative and took wonderful care of our girl while we were away!
Amazing communication, easy to book with, will absolutely book with her again !
Kari did an awesome job. She was patience with my little reactive dog. Gave Many updates with photos . Would recommend.
This was the first time we hired Kari and we couldn't be happier. She was great with both of our dogs (one can be a little reactive) and was wonderful about keeping us updated on how the dogs were doing. We will certainly hire Kari again any time we need a dog sitter. Highly recommend.
