Cat lady who loves dogs! 🤫
Pet care experience
***Pet First Aid and CPR Certified** *** Please help Bonita to receive the medical care she deserves after years of abuse that left her paralyzed! We truly appreciate any help you can give to her! https://gofund.me/6ec11628 *** I have been caring for people's pets for quite a long time. I do it because I truly do love it! Prior to moving to Arizona, I lived in Chicago where I worked as a full-time employee for a small, locally owned, thriving pet-sitting business. Each day I would have a schedule set for about 5-10 visits that were mainly mid-day dog walk visits. My routine consisted of greeting the doggies, pets and playing, going on walks to potty, and when it came time for visits to end, I would end each one as specified by the owners. I adore meeting a cat or two throughout my day as well! I am a cat lady at heart, so hanging with these furry felines really warms my heart. A typical visit would consist of feeding, grooming, and playing with cats. I have two cats of my own at home as well, so I am a pro and keeping the litter boxes cleaned on the daily. I have years of experience with overnight visits, caring for pets in the comfort of their own homes. I spent a lot of time training under professionals in this business learning the do's and don't's when it comes to nurturing different temperaments in animals, being attentive to health, age, medication administration, and proper training techniques. Most of all, how to keep calm in emergency situations. I am an animal lover to my core. My husband often jokes that I'd sacrifice him before I'd hurt an animal; he's slightly insulted by the thought, but I laugh because he isn't wrong! 🤭
Reviews
Kari is so good with my pup Hazen! I couldn’t recommend a better person to trust with your furry family member!
A real dog lover. My dog took to her immediately. Very skilled around the dog and she’s very polite and respectful of your time.
have three dogs and one cat at home and I work full time. Kari has been helping me out for the past two years. She’s been a blessing and has become my fur babies favorite auntie! She walks them while I’m at work and when I have to go out of town she stays at my home overnight and takes wonderful care of them. They are never attention-deprived when I get back to them. They seem to be worn out, happy, and soaking in the pets. Kari is available when I need her and my babies and I have come to truly appreciate her in our lives!

Information Kari R. would like to know about your pet
Please inform me of any special needs or care for your pet. Any dietary restrictions or allergies to be aware of. I also like to have a good understanding of your pets personality beforehand so I can keep an eye on any behavior that seems out of the ordinary.
A typical day
I know how important mental and physical stimulation is for your pets! We will spend lots of time outdoors, taking long walks, playing catch, and practicing commands that are rewarded with treats if allowed by the pet owner. I love to play puzzle games with dogs to keep their brains working and excercising as well!
