Pet care experience

I've owned rabbits, ducks, a horse, a raccoon, and many dogs and cats over the years. I enjoy caring for animals as naturally as possible. I worked at St. Paul Vet in Milwaukee. I plan to become a certified vet-tech.

Kari was super sweet and easy to work with.

I have known Kari for almost a decade and she has constantly cared for her dogs and for all animals. She goes out of her way to avoid a squirrel on the road, she moves caterpillars and frogs from sidewalks to grassy areas so they do not overheat in the summer sun, and she always takes time for a long walk with her two dogs Dexter and Morgan - every day no matter what. Kari will do whatever is necessary to keep your pet safe and healthy. You will not be disappointed!

I have known Kari for 20+ years and her whole life is dogs and it doesn't even have to be her own dogs. We had a dog (Matilda) that would launch herself down the stairs to jump into Kari's arms just by hearing her voice. She truly loves all dogs and they have so much fun around her. She would make sure that your dog is the most important thing to her while she is taking care of them.

Kari loves animals of all kinds and they gravitate towards her. I’m convinced they know she’s one of the good ones! I’ve witnessed Kari be the most caring and capable pet parent that there is! She puts her pets needs at the top of the priority list. She has helped me with my pets too whenever I have needed some help when late getting home from work. I have complete trust in her to take care of my fur babies like they are her own.
