Karina took excellent care of our puppy (who got bad diarrhea during her stay). Karina sent many pix, videos, & updates and we knew she was in good hands. We would definitely use her again.

When I left Hartley at Karina's she was definitely nervous, but I felt confident she would be okay. Over the next few days Harley had a really rough time, but Karina kept me appraised about everything that was going on, and worked with me to find solutions for her anxiety. I felt a thousand times better knowing even though she was super stressed, Karina spent every second keeping her as calm as possible and making the situation as good for her as possible. I would highly recommend leaving an animal in her loving care with no reservations. She was amazing for my dog and for me.

Karina was so great! Our dogs instantly loved her. She was very communicative and sent lots of updates and photos while we were away over night. I will definitely work with her again!

Karina was amazing from beginning to end. I felt a little skeptical about leaving my fur child with anyone unfamiliar. From texts before the drop off, Karina made me feel comfortable. I received texts, pics and videos of my dog continuously throughout the day to see my dog, adjusting to a new person and environment. I could see my bully taking to Karina very easily which gave me peace of mind while away. Karina was very attentive to my fur baby and making sure that she was her priority while under her care. When I picked up my dog the first thing I asked after expressing my appreciation was, if I ever have to leave my dog with anyone again, can I look you up on Rover and she said yes! I highly recommend anyone leaving your fur child with Karina who is attentive and sensitive to your pet adjusting to new people and surroundings. Amazing pet sitter. 5 stars ⭐️

I love making sure pets are taken care of mentally and physically. Whether its taking a nice walk, licking a frozen lick mat or practicing obedience theres always something to do(a little tv and couch time at the end also never hurt) Doggy arts and crafts to make you feel like the pawrent you are❤️
