Paws, Play, & Walk: Pet's BFF:)

Pet care experience

Growing up on a ranch surrounded by dogs, cats, horses, and more, I've developed a deep understanding and love for animals. With years of hands-on experience, I ensure safe and enjoyable walks for your pets, treating them with the care and respect they deserve. Your pet's happiness and safety are my top priorities.

Karina is a great dog sitter. She has taken care of my dog whenever I'm out of town (which is pretty often) and I always leave feeling at ease knowing my dog is being well taken care of. She always sends pictures of my dog on their adventures, whether its a walk in the park, a game of tug-a-war, or nap time, and it always brings a smile to my face. She is extremely responsible, kind, and organized. I trust her completely with my pet and you should too!

I can't express enough gratitude towards Karina for the exceptional care and companionship provided to Bella, our beloved golden retriever. From the very first walk, it was clear that Bella was in the hands of someone who doesn't just see dog walking as a job, but as a passion. Bella always returned from her walks happy, well-exercised, and, most importantly, safe. The updates and photos we received after each walk brought us immense joy and peace of mind, knowing that Bella was enjoying her adventures around the neighborhood. What truly sets Karina apart is the genuine love for dogs and an understanding of their individual needs. Bella, being the energetic and social butterfly that she is, requires more than just a simple walk around the block. Our dog walker ensured each outing was an adventure for Bella, filled with play, socialization, and plenty of love. For anyone considering a dog walker, I cannot recommend Karina highly enough. The care, professionalism, and joy brought into Bella's life are immeasurable. Thank you for being such a wonderful part of Bella's life and giving us the confidence that she's in the best hands when we're not around.

Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, thanks to a flexible part-time schedule at a research lab. My working hours are adaptable, allowing me to provide pet care services both before and after my lab commitments. This flexibility ensures that I can offer consistent, timely care to your pets, ensuring they receive the attention and companionship they need throughout the day. Whether it's a morning walk to start the day on a positive note or an evening play session to wind down, I'm able to adjust my schedule to meet the needs of your furry family members.
