Dependable, experienced and loving

Pet care experience

I have a pre-veternary degree from the University of Vermont and experience working with animals at a veterinarian. I have taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I grew up on a farm with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, ferrets, chickens, hamsters, llamas, sheep, goats, and a horse in upstate NY. I'm comfortable giving all types of medications. I have no problem running with your dog. I have three dogs and two cats of my own. I genuinely love animals and will treat your pet like my own. I am available for in-home visits and walking right now. I have a reliable car and you can count of me to be there when you need me. I hope to meet your fur babies soon!

Kari is fabulous! Extremely good with animals. Very reliable and trustworthy. She walks my dog once a day, 5 days a week. Always on time and responds immediately to requests. She handles my strong 98 pound yellow yellow Lab, Quinn, no problem. I highly recommend her.

Kari is wonderful! She is reliable, dependable and really friendly. My dog, Quinn, loves her. He is a very strong 98 pound yellow lab, and she has no problem handling him on a walk. She is a true animal lover. I highly recommend her!

Kari was wonderful with my aging chocolate lab. I was comfortable with her immediately and her care and compassion for Oakley were evident. I would use her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her.

Kari is the BEST person to take care of any dog - she loves them like her own! Kari took wonderful care of my 140 pound bull mastiff, Bess. While we were gone for 10 days, Bess was clearly delighted to become part of Kari's pack of dogs, and it was obvious that she was well loved. Kari discussed Bess's routines with us ahead of time, so that she could provide Bess with as much continuity as possible. Kari ensured that Bess was very happy and settled. Kari sent us daily photos and updates, and kept us posted on how Bess was doing. I recommend Kari highly for any pet who might need care.
