Animal-Lover on a Lookout to Help

Pet care experience

Growing up, I have had all kinds of different pets, which made me into the responsible, animal-loving person I am. Currently I have two amazing dogs and one bunny back at home. My Bichon Frise is 16 years old and slightly blind, but my family and I always make sure to give him the right care and love he needs. Meanwhile, my large, golden lab is 3 years old and super hyper and playful making me dedicated to taking her on so many walks. Therefore, I have all sorts of experience with dogs of all ages whether a puppy or a senior. In addition to this, I had just recently fostered a beautiful puppy from the shelter who was still not crate or potty trained, so I had to teach this all to her myself. All dogs, no matter what breed or how old, always put a smile on my face.

Could not recommend her more. She enjoys spending time with the boys as much as we do. Chris

Karina was amazing with our pup! She kept us up to date with pics and it was obvious Teddy had a blast with her dog, Paisley. We will definitely use her again!

Karina was prompt and our dog loved her. She gave us a picture and walked and played with our dog. I would highly recommend her and our dog has requested that we select her again ?!

Information Karina A. would like to know about your pet

I love all dogs, so I do not have any breed preferences; however, I would like to know if a dog is aggressive before sitting him or her.

A typical day

I often take the dogs I care for to the dog park in my neighborhood, which they love. I also can take the dogs on the James Madison University quad where dogs usually enjoy walking around and receiving lots of attention from students.
