Pet care experience

Happy tails, peace of mind.

I've been around pets my whole life since I remember, I asked for my own dog when I was 15 and every since then I feel the family is complete if we have a pet with us. I took care of my husband's boss dog for 2 years straight and also other friends pets when they go on vacations. I love having the pets happy, and take good care of them.

It is always a pleasure leaving Bunny with Karina. He made friends at her place. 🙃

Karina is an amazing sitter, she was clear and communicative while watching my golden retriever and always would reach out if anything. I would recommend her to anyone.

Karina was very prompt in sending Oreo’s pics each day and responded quickly to all our questions! Oreo had a great time at Karina’s home and looks like he got on really well with Karina’s pup as well.

Schedule

I am a stay at home mother of two, my daughter is 13and my son 8, they are crazy about pets too; back to my schedule, I'm pretty flexible and free most of the time to give your furry pets a good care, walks and playful stay and the most important, lots of cuddles (if they allow us).

Safety, trust & environment

I will take care of your pets in my house, I have a friendly Corgi who loves to make new friends and play. I have a backyard which is basically fence but I won't let your furry one alone at any time or I will take them for a walk to go potty instead, that way they get 2 in 1 potty time and exercise. My pet is also okay of staying on the crate for sometime if we need to, he loves taking good naps.

Pets

A typical day

We'll go for a walk, great opportunity to relief the stress out, exercise, explore around and potty time. Also play with toys with my other dogs, he loves making new friends. If it is a cat, toys is a great idea to make them have a good time.

16 to 40 lbs
