Missing the love of an animal!

Pet care experience

I have recently lost the last of my childhood pets and am looking to spread my love elsewhere among others! I am CPR certified and know how to perform animal CPR if necessary. I have been raising and loving animals since I was 5 raising dogs, cats, and goats from birth. I am an active person and will be capable of long walks, hikes, bike rides, running, etc. I understand the need for attention/engagement, affection, and activity required to keep animals healthy. Understanding that each animal may require different food and medications I will never feed an animal against directions received, and I have learned to expertly conceal medication when necessary. I know how to properly trim nails for both dogs and cats (and goats). I have one dog that has been trained with commands and use them on a daily basis, therefor I understand the importance of commands, such as: how to properly implicate them, rewards for listening, and properly correct misbehavior to said commands as desired or if necessary. I have basic knowledge and understanding of the body language animals give off to have an acute idea of what they are thinking or feeling. I will not hesitate to call or transport an animal to the vet if a problem occurs while doing my absolute best to keep in contact with the owners during the entire ordeal.

Kari took good care of my Guinea Pigs! She made sure that they were loved and fed while I was away.

Information Kari L. would like to know about your pet

Understanding a dog's habits and behaviors is super important to me. Knowing what may trigger a dog is essential in creating a safe space for them. If any animal likes to chew random things (shoes, bags, etc.), commands, knowing if they have separation anxiety, dietary restrictions, or reactions to other animals are all important to me giving the best care.

A typical day

As I don't have a fenced-in yard, depending on the animal we can play fetch if behaved. I know of several dog parks/fenced-in areas that could be of use. If permission is granted, my parents have a husky-shephard mix that is always looking for friends to play with that does not live far from me. I can do pets for days as well as combing and cleaning a furry friend if necessary.
