I am currently a recent college graduate and have lots of time to dedicate to all the furriends around! Denver and I enjoy lots of outdoor time, and go out multiple times a day. For drop ins/walks, I have tons of flexibility and am always willing to make something work got you ❤️

Safety, trust & environment

When handling new dogs, I like to take in one new furriend at a time, until I know them well enough to introduce them to a new pet. My pups safety as well as yours is the utmost importance to me, and I would never risk anyones safety or well-being. I usually require a meet & greet for new clients to ensure you feel comfortable with Denver and I caring for your pup! I will, however, forgo a meet and greet as I know sometimes emergencies arise and last-minute care is necessary. Once I've met/cared for your furriend, I can take your pup at any time!

Information Karina G. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know dietary restrictions (if any). I would like to learn what allergies your pup might have to get myself ready for any situations.

A typical day

For boardings, Denver and I love walking with our new furriends and we enjoy including them in our daily activities. On rainy days, we enjoy stimulating puzzles. For housesitting/dropins, your pup and I will follow your routine as much as possible. I follow your requests ⭐️

Pet care experience

I have been a dog lover since I was a little girl. We have been taking care of dogs since I can remember. I have had a variety of animals and right now I have a beautiful english cocker spaniel who i love with all of my heart. I am available and am flexible with services. I am willing to treat your fur friend like i treat my own! I love going on hikes and long walks so your pup will definitely enjoy his days. A tired pup is a well behaved pup! I cannot express how excited i am at the opportunity to meet you and your fur babies. Denver loves meeting new pups as do we. We have a fully fenced in backyard which is nice for the dogs to run around and play in.

Karina was great with my dog! She loved on him and made sure he was well exercised and taken care of.

Karina was great! Our dog Paris was a bit skittish and nervous but she made her feel comfortable. Took her on walks and sent lots of photos and updates. I would highly recommend!

Karina was so sweet and flexible with our family. She provided updates and made us feel at ease while away from our fur baby. Would recommend!
