Dog Walking • dic 28, 2024

Karine is a great dog walker and Daisy is so excited when she comes around to pick her up. She has a pleasant, friendly personality and is very knowledgeable with dog behaviors. She is always on time and really seems to enjoy her work as a dog walker and I will definitely recommend her to friends.

I have known Karine for many years as a very close friend and for as long as I've known her, she has always been a dog lover! From growing up with dogs in her family home to now owning a dog in her own home, her love for furry friends don't go unnoticed. She knows the importance of the love, care and companionship they deserve. If she knew I had a long day ahead at work and she had some spare time, she would go out of her way to come pick up my Golden Retriever to take him to the park, for a hike, for a walk, or simply just to spend time with him playing or cuddling so he wouldn't be alone at home for long hours. She would provide me updates throughout her time spent with my dog by messages or with photos of their outing without even having to ask for it. Karine communicates promptly, she is attentive and friendly. I strongly reccomend her to anyone who is looking for a reliable and trustworthy person to care for their fur babies. Your fur babies might even get very excited when they see Karine come back to pick them up ;) Just know that they will be in good hands!

Karine took great care of my four year old Australian Shepherd! My dog is nervous with strangers and Karine made sure she was comfortable. I would recommend her services to anyone :)

Karine is an amazing dog sitter! She kept my Irishdoodle a few times and I've seen her with other dogs also. She seems to understand and know just what they need. She always had dogs growing up and new how to love and take good care of them. Your dog or any type of fur baby will be in good hands with my daughter

Karine loves pets of all kind and it shows. She’s great at taking care of pets and providing the best level of care possible. She will always treat your pets like her own and you can rest east knowing they’re in her care.

Karine treats every furry friend as if they were her own! She is a great dog sitter and she made sure my dog was comfortable and had a wonderful evening. My dog has a lot of energy and spunk, and Karine knew exactly how to handle it! She is cognizant of dog allergies and always asks before giving her own treats. The love, care, and energy she brings every time is always greatly appreciated!

Pets

A typical day

I think mental stimulation and physical exercise is very important for any pets well being, therefore I focus mainly on providing those needs for the dogs I keep and then provide a cool calm area for the dogs to rest once their energy has been spent.
