Pet care experience

Experienced pet owner & animal lover :)

Hello! I'm Karina, I just finished my bachelors degree and have currently been enjoying looking after pets through Rover. I have extensive experience caring for various pets, including dogs, cats, fish, parrots, guinea pigs, and hamsters. I also spent my childhood in a village with my grandma, who had pigs, chickens, and cows. At home, I have three cats and a small elderly dog. I am responsible, trustworthy, and passionate about ensuring pets' well-being and happiness. I look forward to caring for your furry friends!

I’ve used Karina twice now, as I have absolute confidence in how she cares for my Dash. He’s always happy in the photographs, and I will continue to use the services provided by Karina when I go away.

Was sent several pictures on a regular basis. My fur baby looked so happy and clearly had an amazing time. After his initial excitement of seeing us after our holiday, he actually sulked as he clearly missed the new friends he’d made. Will be using Karina again to ensure he has contact with the other dogs and the family. Delighted!

Karina and her mum looked after my little Jackapoo Dexter for a weekend and i cannot recommend enough. Dexter was very well looked after and I received photos of him enjoying his weekend whilst I was away. I will definitely leave him with Karina again

I am glad we chose Karina as our pet daycare nanny. The house was well equipped and welcoming for new explorers! Although my cat is an introvert and prefers to spend time alone, Karina has amazing pets, especially the dog who was very friendly and tried to befriend my cat. She created the necessary accommodations so he is less stressed as he does not like being away from home. Thank you Karina!

Karina looked after my young cat Oakley for a weekend and made sure we always knew he was fine in sending photos and videos. Very responsive & welcoming, making us feel reassured he was okay. Would recommend her.

Schedule

I work 15 hours a week, so have plenty of time to look after pets. I also live with my mum, so for any boarding requests, she would be available if I’m ever not at home e.g. working, going gym, running errands, etc.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day would consist of a walk around the neighbourhood or park, possibly running around or playing fetch if the doggo is in good shape, depending on how friendly the dog is - meeting other dogs or people, etc. And the most important one: cuddles! For cat owners; your babies will get lots of play time and cuddles :)
