Pet care experience

My husband and I are both animal lovers, we own a 2 year old Poodle mix named Bailey. He's very friendly towards dogs but it takes him time to warm up to people. I'm very loving when it comes to animals, We make our home as welcoming as possible, there is no off limits in our furniture, or bed, in this home your dog will have the space to make them selves feel at home. We will give him/her lots of love and attention the same way we give our dog. We live in a duplex with a big back yard that your dog will enjoy. We look forward to meeting you and your pet!

We have used Karina to watch our dog Ruby for 10 years now. She is the best of the best and treats all dogs with love and respect. I couldn’t recommend her higher. If you are looking for a dog sitter where you know your dog is loved and safe while you are away, Karina is it. Thank you so much for everything Karina!!

I would give Karina and her family 10 stars if I could! She’s been watching our pets for years and she is amazing! From the start, it’s clear how much she loves animals. She keeps me updated with cute photos and little notes, which totally puts my mind at ease. Knowing my pets are happy and well cared for lets me relax and enjoy my trip. I’d highly recommend Karina if you’re looking for someone who’ll treat your pets like family!
