Fur Babies Get "Princess" Pet Care
Personally and professionally, I've taken care of dogs and cats: - I've been a volunteer dog walker and washer. - I'm a former kitty foster mom, often running what I like to call the Home for Unwed Feline Mothers and Their Children. - I'm a picker up of dog poo. - I'm an occasional volunteer with the Animal Adoption Foundation in Millville, OH. - I've been a remote volunteer with Atlanta's Canine CellMates program, helping to share about adoptable dogs. I relate to your dog(s) and cat(s) as they like best. I consistently provide photos, videos, and stories so you can stay in touch with your pet(s) while you're away. I would love to spend quality time with your fur baby(ies). I can come visit your pet and am glad to take your dog(s) on walks, to dog parks, hang out inside in their favorite spots, toss toys, play chase, play fetch, scratch bellies, chins, or favorite spots. I take my cues from the furry friends I serve. If you have other pet types (kitties, bunnies, birds, guinea pigs), I'm glad to take care of them as well. I'm only the Lady-in Waiting, right?! Let me know what works for you and your pet(s).
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Kari was fantastic with our dogs! I work from home so it was important for me to have someone who would primarily be at our house most of the day because that’s what they were used too and she was able too! She was attentive to their needs and followed instructions we gave to her. The dogs got a lot of outside time and plenty of cuddles! We would definitely hire her again!


Kari is the best! So many pictures and videos of our boys. This was the second time. I would certainly use her again.
Kari could not have been more perfect to leave with our boys. She kept us in pictures and I really think the pups were sad after she left. Thank you!
Having Kari stay with our cat, Clancy, for 8 days while we were away was fantastic — and such a relief. Kari sent us daily pictures and videos of Clancy so we had a good sense of his contentment and well-being. Kari is so caring about animals and takes her responsibilities to them very seriously. She followed our specific instructions perfectly and we arrived home to a healthy, happy cat! I highly recommend Kari for any pet-sitting need you may have!

Our pups LOVE Kari. What more can we say! She is organized, loving, dependable and we rest assured that our pets are in safe hands. WONDERFUL!


It's really hard to recommend Kari highly enough. From our first "meet-and-greet" with Bella, it was obvious that she has a great deal of experience caring for and being attentive to furry friends. She is an active listener (to both humans and pets alike) and is excellent in her communication. Her care for your pets is top notch. You can't go wrong with Kari!
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I work have a full-time remote job, so I have flexibility about where I work. I will put your pets' needs first and am willing to visit once, for a short-term schedule, or for longer-term arrangements.
Where your pet will stay
Safety, trust & environment
I am unable to sit your pets in my home. I'm happy to visit and care for your pet(s) in your home and their favorite environments.
A typical day
Walks? As short or as long as your dog(s) prefer. We can go to their favorite places if you tell me where those are. Jogging? Sure. Games? Fetch, chase, you bet. Belly rubs, snuggles? Absolutely. What does your pet(s) like best? For cats: Do they like to play with a laser pointer (well, chasing a laser pointer) or other toys? Where do they like their scratches? On their head? Under their chin? Do they like to be picked up or loathe it? They get to decide! Other pet types: You tell me what they need & like and I'm on it. :)
