Karina can care for
Availability
Currently, I work fully remote, as such I am able to offer flexibility with my pets, or the pets I'm sitting for. I can be flexible with my routine to ensure that their needs are met, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just cuddling. I can offer multiple check-ins and am available for walks, play sessions, and monitoring health or behavior throughout the day.

About Karina C.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I will treat each pet with the utmost respect and care, ensuring that each pet receives proper attention and one-on-one time. I will make sure to follow each animal's regular routine and schedule as closely as possible. I am very conscientious of others' homes and will clean up after myself and the pets.
Information Karina C. would like to know about your pet
I like to make sure I have a good understanding of each pet (e.g., medication, supplements, triggers, etc.), their likes and dislikes, and their routines.
A typical day
I like to learn what activities the pets I watch enjoy, whether that is playing with their favorite toys, hide and seek, or other activities.

Loving cat and dog mom
Pet care experience
Growing up, I am thankful my family were avid animal lovers. Our home was always shared with cats, dogs, and fish. I have been fortunate enough that our love and care for animals has enabled us to have long living pets, with my first cat living until 18 years old and dog until 13 years old. This experience has given me a deep understanding of cat / dog behavior, their health needs, and how to provide the best care at every stage of their life. I’m comfortable managing everything from playful dogs/ kittens to senior dogs/cats with specific health concerns. I also understand the importance of building trust with both cats and dogs and ensuring they feel safe and comfortable, especially when their owners are away. I'm dedicated to creating a routine that suits each pet's personality and needs, whether it's administering medication, providing companionship, or just offering a safe, loving environment.
Reviews

Karina was Amazing with our dog!!! He loved his time with her and loved all the walks. She went above & beyond and was Awesome at communicating with me and sending me pictures while we were away! I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs care for their fur babies :)

The best cat sitter e ver!


Both of our dogs are super comfortable with Karina! She’s caring of the dogs and conscientious of staying in touch with us.

Karina is an amazing person. She made a point of visiting my cat beforehand, who is blind, to understand his needs. On our first meeting, my cat felt comfortable and rested his head on her, asking for affection… people's energy doesn't lie. Karina followed all the instructions and sent me photos and videos every day. If you are looking for someone trustworthy and loving, Karina needs to be your choice. I will definitely hire her again!
