Pet care experience

Dedicated Rover sitter & dog lover!

I love dogs! My house and backyard is set up to accommodate a small pack of furry friends. I share the home with my fiancée, Daniel, and our little dog, Herbee, who we are absolutely obsessed with. I’ve been on Rover for 9 years and make dog care my top priority. I stay home with them all day so they have plenty of company and supervision, whether it’s in the backyard playing or inside hanging out. My fiancée is great with dogs as well and our dog, Herbee, is very well socialized with dogs. If he doesn't like a dog he will just ignore them. We love the company of furry friends! PLEASE GIVE ACCURATE TIMES AND COMMUNICATE IF IT CHANGES. DROP OFF/PICK UP HOURS 7 AM to 8 PM

This was my first time using Rover and also my first time leaving Cookie and Spade in the care of someone else. Karina was fantastic!! She provided daily updates and sent plenty of pictures. Cookie and Spade had the opportunity to socialize with other dogs and seemed to truly enjoy it. Thank you so much Rover/Karina for making my first time experience an amazing one. I will definitely use Rover/Karina again.

Karina was great with our dog, Skye! She was very communicative and we really appreciated getting photo updates every day. It gave us peace of mind to see our dog happy while we were away.

Karina was sweet as pie and had an aura about her that made you feel like your pet would be well taken care of. Karina had my PET for a full week. Every day she sent photos and gave updates. My dog returned in the same condition that I brought him. I would definitely use her for the future!

Karina did an amazing job watching my dog, Stevie! She would send daily updates and photos just to make me feel at ease while I was away from my baby. She went above and beyond with accommodating the pick up schedule. I would 100% recommend Karina and would book again with her!

I graduated from Long Beach City College in 2020. Since then, dog sitting has become my passion and I now focus on taking care of the dogs full time. This is my one and only job :)

Safety, trust & environment

A typical day with me includes playing or lounging around the house and backyard, which is very large, secure and escape proof. They are welcome on my couch and I have extra dog beds too. If your dog likes to play, great! We love playful dogs. If they like to relax, that’s great too. There are tranquil spots here for them to do that. Eating: I separate the dogs during feeding time so they don’t eat other dogs food. Walking: I have a very secure and large yard for the dogs to go potty, walk, run and play. Sleeping: The dogs sleep in my living room overnight. Some have crates, some free roam. Please bring a crate if your dog sleeps in one, otherwise they can use my couch or a dog bed. There is usually a small group of dogs here. For this reason, I do meet and greets in my front yard.

A typical day

I will do my best to ease whatever anxiety your dog may have while you are away and make sure they feel welcomed, loved and safe. I will send daily pictures so you know what your pup is up to and how they're doing. I can't wait to meet your furry friends!

There is a good chance I will be boarding dogs from other families, so it is important that your dog gets along with other dogs, or at least tolerates being around them and is not aggressive towards me or the other dogs. I want everyone to have a safe, happy and overall good experience while in my care.
