A walk a day will keep the vet away
Pet care experience
I am a previous animal science student that has just as much energy as your dog does. I've cared for dogs, cats, birds, and even rodents for the past 20 years in my own home, as well as within my family and friends homes. I will bring a smiling face to greet your pup so he/she is welcomed and ready for the best dog-sitting experience in town! I am available weekends, weekdays for drop-ins/walks in the AM, PM, and noon, and boarding when your pup is too big to fit in your suitcase! I have an academic background in nutrition, canine anatomy and care, along with extensive experience directly with caring for dogs of all sizes. I am so excited to meet you and your amazing canine part of the family!
Reviews
Karina was inquisitive and thorough. She did a great job taking care of my dog, Larry, while I was away. The only reason I gave her 4 stars instead of 5 is because she had to unexpectedly cancel some of the scheduled days. It was not a huge problem, she was able to answer my questions, and fix any issues from this. I would still recommend Karina and use her for future visits with my dog!
Karina has been wonderful with our puppy! She is reliable and communicates well, cleans up his accidents when he gets a little too excited to see her, and always is accommodating to our various directions and our unpredictable work schedules. We are so thankful that we have her to take great care of our fur baby
I’ve gone to Karina for over five years. She’s babysat and dogsat for me, simultaneously. One of the most responsible young ladies I know. Will always make sure your pet is safe.
Karina is an AWESOME pet sitter. She’s dog- and cat-sit for me for over ten years and I continually go to her for all of my pet needs! She’s charismatic and will spend hours giving your pet the attention they want/need. Her intelligence and fun-loving personality make her a perfect fit for any dog of any breed.

Safety, trust & environment
Although I am only a kitty mom, safety for my pet and your pets are my number one priority. Doors are always shut, gates are always closed, and water will always be available for those hot days!

Information Karina P. would like to know about your pet
I have no breed preferences, all are welcome! I would, however, like to know a little bit about his/her personality before meeting him/her for the first time so I can cater to his/her needs.
A typical day
I live very close to many dog parks and parks in general that are a great place to bring your dog! Some parks are smaller and quieter for those pups that get distracted easily. I am also an avid trail runner and would love to take your dog on a run with me!
