Highlights
Pet care experience
Flexible hours for experienced care
Hi there! My name is Karina and I am an experienced pet sitter available to in-house sit for your pet, drop in for a feeding or socialization, or drop in to walk your dog. Work experience includes 9 years at the ASPCA, 2 years as a veterinary assistant, and some time as a caregiver at a local animal shelter. I've house sat for both dogs and cats for multiple families (references available). I have experience with socializing shy cats, as well as giving medications to both cats and dogs, including administering subcutaneous fluids to a cat with kidney issues. I have been around animals my whole life, including having pets of my own. I am currently available full time. Most importantly, I'm available to give your pet all the love and cuddles they need while you are gone!

Karina also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Ratings and reviews
Karina is a great dog sitter! She’s very responsive and prompt and our dog loves her :) I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter!
Karina was considerate of Margo‘s needs and my instructions! I would definitely book her again.
Karina did a great job with Buddy! She was reliable, communicated proactively throughout the walk, and handled his medication with no issues at all. Would 100% book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive walker!
Karina is a wonderful and responsible walker. She took great care of my dog Tony. I absolutely recommend her!!
Karina was super patient with our very separation anxiety prone senior dog. We were lucky to have her hang out with him while out for the night
Gus and Penny absolutely loved Karina! Will gladly book her again.
