Pet care experience

Care you can count on

Hi! I’m a wife, mom, fitness coach, and huge animal lover. My home has been filled with pets for over 12 years, including a dog, cat, parrot, hamster, and tortoise. I know how much our pets mean to us, and I also know how hard it can be to leave them with someone else. Whether your pet needs a walk, potty break, playtime, meals, or just some extra love and attention, I’m happy to help. I’m dependable, caring, and I’ll treat your pet like one of my own while keeping you updated with photos and messages every step of the way.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I’ll care for them with patience, kindness, and lots of attention while respecting your home and following any instructions you leave. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable from the very first visit.

Karina was absolutely amazing! She was reliable, communicative, and made the entire experience stress-free. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pet was in great hands. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for. My pet came home happy and well cared for, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend Karina to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and kind. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!
