Ratings and reviews
Our Layla had the best time visiting Katrina. Thank you for all the pictures. 🤍
Sent lots of photos which made us feel better about our first time with Karina and Toast! Nora seemed to have a great time!

Great visit! Felt safe leaving my dog with Karina! Clean house and nice neighborhood.

Karina took excellent care of our pup! She sent updates and he looked so happy all the time. Clearly he had plenty of play, exercise, and love! Karina left us worry-free while we traveled and was very flexible with us.

Karina did a great job watching my kitty, Piper, in my apartment. She sent lots of pictures and was communicative.

Would definitely use again to watch my dog.

Schedule
Mornings before 7am or Evening after 5pm, as I do still have a full time job at Iowa State University. I'm open to Daytime Visits in Ames, IA as I'm there every day anyway. I can do weekends and/or minor holidays as well.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a house in Beaverdale that has a fully fenced in yard and is in a lovely neighborhood for walking one's dog on a nice day!
Pets
A typical day
I love going to the dog park with pups or playing with cats at home. I have several cat toys that my cat loves and I'm sure yours would too.
