About Karin K.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in yard for the dogs to run. I will provide your dog’s food and any medicines or care routines on your provided schedule, to maintain your dog’s familiar routine while in a new environment. I am flexible with your dog’s preferred sleeping arrangements— I have a large crate and a medium sized crate available if your dog is a crate sleeper, but my dog is allowed on furniture, so I will provide whatever your dog prefers. Family-friendly, non-aggressive, fairly sociable dogs are preferred, no age preferences or restrictions. My toddler LOVES dogs and will certainly run up to hug or pet the dog.

Information Karin K. would like to know about your pet
Your dog MUST be treated for fleas, ticks and parasites in order to stay with me. Please be transparent with me and know that I will ask you what form of treatment you use. Your dog MUST be fixed. Let me know if your dog has any special behavioral or medical needs that I should be aware of, and we can discuss whether this is something I can accommodate. Questions I will typically ask potential clients: 1. Are your dogs fixed? 2. How is your dog treated for fleas, ticks and parasites? 3. Have your dogs been boarded or watched by other people with kids and/or other pets before? 4. Has your dog been socialized around many other dog breeds and would you describe your dog as friendly and tolerant of others?
A typical day
A typical day in our life looks like: Wake up around 8:00, potty break, breakfast House/backyard play I walk my dog around 10:00, and will take your dog, too, if dog is loose-leash trained and able to walk up to 2 miles comfortably. Otherwise, I am fine skipping the walk and letting dogs play. Around noon, lunch if needed, or small treat/snack 1-3 o’clock: Afternoon rest time, dogs can romp in house and backyard Around 4:00, I like to take my dog to a park to throw a ball. If you are comfortable, I can do this with your dogs as well. If not, we can romp and play in the backyard or take another short walk after dinner instead. 6:00 Dinner time! Evening snuggles!

All-Day Attentive Care
Pet care experience
I own and care for a 3 year-old medium goldendoodle. He is energetic and always ready to play with any dog or human around. I have 2 years of dog training experience, including basic obedience training, and basic trick training. I grew up with a Brittany, so I am very familiar with the personalities and instincts of hunting breeds as well.
Reviews
I am so happy that I found Karin to provide daycare to my little doodle.

Karin has been amazing with Sage, me and my husband went on a 7 day trip for our honeymoon and we decided to leave Sage with Karin. We have never tried anything like this before and normally we went to a boarding facility but decided to try something new for Sage. Best decision we ever made. Numerous amounts of updates, photos and videos, a lot of reassurance, she’s flexible and understanding and she’s has been gentle and loving with Sage as well. We were worried Sage would be too much, but he fit right in. We definitely recommend her and we will 100% be coming back to her for future play dates and boarding! Thank you so much Karin!

Thank you again for taking such good care of Snicker while I was out of town. She had a great time with you and your family. Always appreciate the updates and photos! Will be booking again soon!!! :)

Karin was AMAZING! She was reliable & caring and took great care of Snicker. She sent regular photos & updates which were comforting while being out of town. I highly her for your dog sitting needs!
