Pet care experience
▫️Experience▫️ My experience with dogs started as a young teen when I volunteered at service dog training center where we trained dogs to assist people with physical disabilities. Several years later, I took what I learned and started my own boarding and obedience training business, which eventually led to training dogs for tricks that put them on national TV. I’m not currently available for training dogs, but I am available for drop ins. Boarding is available for exotics, birds, or other small caged animals if we have room. I have my own parrots and aquatic turtle so I’m accustomed to handling unique diets, fresh foods, and the specialized care that’s required. Animals I have cared for include: rabbits, hedgehogs, guinea pigs, gerbils, goats, donkeys, chickens, birds, turtles, and fish. (And of course, cats and dogs!)

▫️It’s the little things!▫️ I will stick closely to our agreed upon schedule and am happy to do small tasks around the house to make it look like you’re still at home. For example, turning on a porch light or lamp in the evening, bringing in the mail, opening blinds, etc. I will keep your preferred vet’s info on file in case of emergencies and send you daily feedback on how they are doing. My goal is to make sure your companion is safe and comfortable and that you can enjoy your travels guilt-free!
Information Kari S. would like to know about your pet
I am happy to work with pets with special needs. I’m familiar with administering pills and have experience with canine seizures and post-op care. If your pet has had any kind of significant medical history, please let me know.
A typical day
I customize my visits based on the desires of the clients. If longer visits are preferred or shorter but more frequent, I will be happy to discuss the options.
