Personalized pet care,daily updates

Pet care experience

Initial booking rates apply for repeat clients! I have experience with small and large breeds of dogs, and am a cat whisperer ;) I have volunteered at local animal shelters for 10 years now, and have helped friends dogsit for long extended periods of time. I also worked at two different vet clinics as an assistant during my college days. I have also fostered 5 litters of kittens and many other adult cats who needed a home for their true personalities to shine, as they weren't doing well in the shelter. I will take care of your cat or pooch the way any responsible pet owner would. I can administer medicine for both cats and dogs, and will walk them as often as their energy level needs!

Karina is great, flexible, and very prompt. She was quick to respond to my inquiry and she’s very detailed and diligent about her visits with our dogs. The pups seem to love her, and the photos are always a blast. Highly recommended!!

Our dog Sunny is quite shy. Karina did a great job helping her feel safe enough to go on her walks. :}

Information Karina X. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences, but you must know if your dog is OK with a cat in the same apartment. I do slow supervised introductions and have had no problems - as long as you're honest about your dog's temperament! See the photos on my profile for pictures of my clients dogs with my cat. Are they house trained? How many walks a day do you usually give your dog? Please make sure your pooch is under some sort of flea prevention.

A typical day

I typically walk your dog 3 times a day minimum. Your carefully crafted care notes about your dog and cat is read in detailed before I even approve the booking, just to make sure that I will be at my best at taking care of your fur baby! I live in a dog-friendly neighborhood, close to Reynier park, where I am often seen throwing balls or frisbees with dogs under my care. If your dog is a senior dog, I will adjust activity levels accordingly! All pups under my care get engaging walks and fresh grass and air. If your dog loves to cuddle, I love to cuddle with them! I am home most of the days, so I will always be there for your dogs needs.
