Experienced & Caring Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

*Important -> Please read the second paragraph for information on large breeds. Hi! I'm Karina, a pet lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets. My focus revolves around exercise, playtime, and affection, while providing the necessary care they deserve. 🐶😺 I take great care in adhering to your instructions regarding feeding and medication. I remain attentive promptly communicating any observed changes or concerns that may arise. 📞🐾 For large breeds, I currently only accept dogs with low to moderate energy levels. To ensure compatibility, a meet and greet is necessary. Additionally, all dogs must be friendly with both people and animals, as well as crate trained. Safety and positive interactions are my top priorities. Discounts: 5% off for new clients. Use code NEW5 when submitting your booking request. 10% off for returning clients who have reviewed my services. Use code REVIEW10 when submitting your booking request. If you're new to Rover, message me for a special $20 welcome discount on your first booking. Boarding Information * Please bring your pet's food, leashes, kennel, and favorite toy for their comfort. * The pick-up and drop-off rates for my sitter services start at $22, taking into account fuel and time required for transportation. * For cancelations, a strict 7-day advance notice is required. If you need to cancel your booking within the 7-day notice period, a 50% refund will be provided. * Fully potty trained puppies under 1 year old will be charged $35 per day. Puppies aged 1-2 years, who are already potty trained, will be charged $30 per day. For puppies who are not yet potty trained, the boarding rate will be $65 per day. Starting June, walks will be during the early morning or evening. We will have playtime in the shade from 9am-6pm as a refreshing alternative to regular walks. This is to accommodate the warmer weather.

Karina took great care of my pups during their stay. She updated regularly with pictures and was very responsive to their needs. We added on a pet bath to their stay and they came home smelling fresh and clean. Karina is awesome!

Karina was great and always kept me updating on how my little Omen was doing and he loved his stay. She was also very understanding about last min changes and I will definitely book with her again. ?

Karina is the best dog sitter! We came from out of town to visit SeaWorld. Karina was very kind to accommodate our schedule. Our 7 month Cavalier puppy had a blast for the whole day and came back content, tired and really clean. Karina sent a lot of cute pictures. She will be our go to dog sitter whenever we visit San Antonio.

Karina was amazing! Highly recommend her. 5 stars. We boarded our dog Teddy with her for 9 days while we were away on a family vacation. This was the first time that he had ever been away from us so I was really nervous about leaving him and especially for such a long time. Karina is a great communicator. She kept me informed with daily updates and pics and was very prompt to relay any changes or concerns. Teddy had a great time with her and her family. She even sent him home with a new toy. Very thoughtful ❤️ I will definitely reach out to Karina first the next time we need a sitter for Teddy.
