Pet care experience

Our pets are part of the family

I have lived with dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds all my life. They have been my little fur babies so I understand how important it is to trust another with them. They deserve our best. On my walks with your pup I make sure they get the sniffs for brain stimulation, exercise, and I personally work to help reinforce proper walking behaviors!

Safety, trust & environment

My dog is usually able to free roam with 24/7 access to water. I have a dedicated “place” for my puppy where she is redirected to when guests arrive, down time, or when she gets too excited. It’s a great area that she can associate with a calm body! Play time is during the day usually in the evening either through play or the park!

Karinya is always reliable and does a great job with Harlee, who can be reactive.

Karinya was very responsive and communicated often. Our kittens were very healthy and happy when we returned!

As always, Karinya was responsible and punctual. My dogs love her. She’s very trustworthy and I feel I leave my dogs in the best hands when I am out of town.

Will not use her again. My husband and I booked her for 4 days while we were going to be out of town. She did the meet and greet and then cancelled after the first visit because she didn’t feel safe with my border collie. It just left me in a real bind to find someone while out of town. I can’t blame her if she doesn’t feel safe but she should have never taken the assignment—he acted the same at the meet and great as he did the first day—barks a lot and a little skidding of strangers.

It’s important for me to know ahead of time if a dog has a hard time not pulling on leash, is nervous near busy roads, or reactive to other dogs and or people on the streets. Or for drop in visits, typical greeting and play behavior. This information helps get the most out of the service!
