Pet care experience

I’ve always been an animal lover, and dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I work from home, which allows me to give plenty of time, care, and attention to pets throughout the day. I’m responsible, reliable, and treat every dog as if they were my own—whether that means keeping up with their routines, giving them lots of playtime, or just making sure they feel safe and loved. With years of experience caring for dogs in my own home, I know how important it is to provide a happy, comfortable, and secure environment while you’re away.

I couldn't have asked for a better experience! Being on a 24-hour shift at the firehouse can be stressful, but Karina put my mind completely at ease. She was an excellent communicator, sent great photo updates, and checked in regularly. I was especially impressed that she successfully fed my picky eater. I highly recommend her and will definitely book again.

Karina was so amazing, patient and professional. Such an attentive sitter, helping make our pup Reese feel cared for during her first extended stay away from us. She was communicative and sent the most photogenic photos of our girl. We feel so lucky to have found Karina and would hope to have Reese stay there again.

Kingsley loves visiting with Karina. We are so impressed with her that we booked two weekends in a row! She has become our go-to sitter whenever our travel plans prohibit us from taking King with us.

Karina was great! She took excellent care of our Kingsley and shared the most adorable pics. He thoroughly enjoyed his time with her and especially the park. Will definitely book with Karina again and highly recommend her service.
