Caring, loving, and attentive
Pet care experience
I've taken care of many breeds of dogs aged from puppy to older since I was 12 years old. I've cared for my friends pets while they have gone on vacation and while they are at work. They have relied on me to walk, feed, and provide lots of love and physical activity. I ensure your 4 legged family members are safe without dangerous items on the floor which they can accidentally ingest. Safety, pet happiness, and love are a priority to pets in my care.
Reviews

I felt comfortable from the second Reesie left the front porch. 5 stars thanks Karine

We used Karine's walking services again when I was out of town. Our pup Fig is an anxious aussie so I always worry about how she will be when I am away. Well now with Karine I don't need to worry AT ALL! She is patient and understands it takes Fig a bit to warm up. I am so glad we found her


Karina was great! She was super patient with our pups, communicated frequently and sent pics, and was very understanding of our dogs anxiety.

We are so glad we found Karine! Fig can be a bit nervous when it comes to new people entering our home. Karine was willing to set up a meet and greet so we could introduce Fig. The first walk Fig was nervous and barking but Karine was calm and patient with Fig earning her trust. By the 3rd day they were fast friends! It was a huge relief being away and knowing Fig was cared for and had her needs attended to. We absolutely will be using Karine regularly.

Home
Information Karine P. would like to know about your pet
1 - Let me know if your dog has any preferences, pet peeves or needs I need to be aware of 2 - How they best respond to commands and training, are they treat or toy driven? 3 - How are they with other dogs, leash reactive? 4 - How their daily schedule at home usually is as well as how often they need a potty break. 5 - How do they do in the crate, any separation anxiety? I want to ensure their stay with me is as comfortable and stress free as possible.
A typical day
Usually in the mornings we wake up and go for a walk or to the backyard to potty. After this its time for breakfast. Sometimes throughout the day we may go on longer walks, I am pretty active but I can also tailor to the dogs lifestyle.

Availability
Currently as a nurse practitioner I work full time M-F 7am-6pm so I can only do walks and drops in before and after those hours. On the weekends I am more flexible to cater to your pets needs.
