Information Karine D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if you have an anxious, special needs, or otherwise ✨️ unique ✨️ dog. I am very accomodating and understanding when it comes to that.

A typical day

I am a california girl through and through so I love taking dogs to the beach and park areas. Marina green is another favorite area of mine. Love exploring different neighborhoods and their amenities so I am always open to finding a new undiscovered walking path.

Pet care experience

Besides being a natural born bark enthusiast I spent 7 years as a nanny and house manager which often times also included taking care of the family dogs inside their home and occasionally my own. When it comes to your fur baby. I treat them as my own. I love to teach and practice tricks and basic training. I am extremely patient and positive when it comes to training. I will definitely spoil your pup and give them the best time! Whether it's one hour or one week, your canine cutie is in excellent hands and will get the royal treatment. From a paw massage, to extra pets, cuddles and even their own personal broadway musical, I love to make sure your dog is spoiled and feeling good!

Aside from being a wonderful doggie aunt while I was traveling, Karine is about the kindest, most responsible and responsive person you could ask for. Your little one will be lucky to stay with Karine and Frank. 🩵

Karine is an excellent sitter!! So kind and sweet and my pup had a great time. She's very experienced and responsive, sending lots of videos and pictures while I was away. Picked up a very happy camper after staying with her :) Absolutely recommend for your pet sitting needs!!
