I have complete flexibility for pet sitting, as I work only a few hours a day from home. This allows me to provide attentive, consistent care whenever it’s needed.

About Karin K.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
Each pet gets personalized attention based on their age, energy level, and personality. Puppies get structured playtime, gentle training reinforcement, and plenty of naps. Older dogs can stretch out in cozy spots, enjoy low-stress walks, and get all the patience and care they deserve. Active pups will love our outdoor adventures, from sniffari strolls to trail runs and occasional river visits. I maintain a peaceful environment with low stress, consistent routines, and lots of affection. No overcrowding, no chaos—just safe, happy pets living their best lives while you’re away. Your pet’s health and happiness are always my priority. You’ll get updates, peace of mind, and a pet who’s excited to see me coming.

Information Karin K. would like to know about your pet
I have my pet owners fill out a short questionnaire that covers the following-this can be done over the phone or in person. I feel it’s essential to have at least basic information, and ideally even more about animals under my care. 🐾 Pet Basics • Name, age, breed, and sex? • Spayed/neutered? • How long have you had them? 🥣 Feeding • Feeding schedule and amount? • Food brand/type? • Allergies or sensitivities? • Can they have treats? Type? 🐕 Behavior & Routine • Daily routine and energy level? • Good with other dogs/people? • Any fears, quirks, or aggression? • Leash/crate trained? 💩 Potty Habits • Potty schedule? • Accidents indoors? • Signals when they need to go out? 💊 Health • Any medical issues or meds? If so please provide detailed instructions about when and how they are administered. • Vet name and contact? • Up to date on shots/flea prevention? 🛏️ Comfort • Where do they sleep? • Favorite toys/comfort items? • Commands or cues they know? 🚨 Emergency Info • Emergency contact if you’re unavailable? • What should I do in a medical emergency? 🧳 Logistics • Drop-off/pick-up time? • Bringing food, bedding, or supplies? • Okay with car rides (if trips are okay) I’m very thorough because I believe the details matter and want to care for each individual pet in the best manner possible.
A typical day
Whether your pup is a bouncy ball of energy or a wise old soul, every day with me is tailored to meet their individual needs, energy levels, and personality. For the playful and high-energy types, we hit local jogging trails or enjoy a game of fetch at the dog park. For more mellow pups, we take slow, relaxing strolls with plenty of time for sniffing, exploring, and rolling in the grass. Puppies get gentle stimulation and positive socialization, while seniors enjoy shorter walks, cozy naps, and extra TLC. We might take a peaceful trip to the river to splash, wade, or just cool off under a shady tree. No matter the outing, your dog’s health, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority. I keep stress low, tails wagging, and paws moving at just the right pace. Every dog deserves a calm, fun, and safe experience—and that’s exactly what they get in my care.

Pet care experience
I’m passionate about giving dogs the care and joy they deserve. Living by the river and a spacious park, I take pups on fun adventures—swimming, playing fetch, and exploring trails. I’ve cared for energetic puppies, seniors needing gentle walks, and dogs with special diets or meds. I’m calm, consistent, and always in tune with each dog’s personality, helping them feel secure, active, and loved every day.

Reviews
I’ve never seen my dog more excited than when Karen walks her! Always a delight to see Karen!
Karin did an amazing job caring for my one year old Great Dane puppy for almost three days. She ran with her, tried biking with her and just plain wore her out! Not only did she care for Abbey but she kept an eye on watering the yard, even bringing me some succulents to add to my yard from her yard! She did some major re-organizing in my kitchen! I felt completely at ease when gone! She did way more than expected and I will definitely use her again!!
Highly recommended! Sitter has great communication, our pet loved jogging around her beautiful neighborhood, and she was very kind ( an obvious animal lover : ) We would definitely book again!
Super friendly and our dog, Sally, absolutely loved her! Would definitely book again in the future!
