Caring and Fun Dog Mama

I've taken care of many dogs and earned much experience while growing up in a home that breeds Golden Retrievers, Boxers, Shihpoos and Maltipoos. I have had experience with dogs giving birth and knowing how to keep them warm and make sure the mom is feeding them all. I have helped with shots and heart worm medicine. I have learned a lot of responsibility over the many years of having pets of my own and raising dogs with my family. It has always been a fun and enjoyable job because animals are definitely a joy in my life. I am a stay at home mom with flexible hours to watch your fur babies ❤️ Available for walks and boarding and checking in on pets. I am interested in long term set schedules but since I am home I can also be flexible with times. I have my dog Audrey who is fun and mild mannered around other pets. Walks are a favorite past time for my dog and 19 month old son(who is great with pets). Our home is an apartment but we have space to welcome furry friends 😉 Your pet will be adopted into the family so you will never have to worry about the attention factor.

Karis was so sweet and very flexible with my schedule. I would rebook her again and again! So thankful she took Piper last minute.

Karis has a wonderful loving personality that cares about every person that she meets and especially every dog she meets. Since I have known her I have always noticed how she treats her dogs with as much love as she would a family member. She has helped her family raise dogs for over a decade now and knows what they need to be happy and healthy. Karis will give your dogs all the love they could ever want.

Karis would make a great dog sitter. She is a very responsible and caring person who just loves dogs. I believe her parents raise puppies, so she has had a lot of experience with dogs. I have trusted her with my own fur baby while we went on family vacations, and she has done a wonderful job dog sitting for me!

Karis is a very sweet person and mother, of a baby and furbaby! She has always had an organized and clean home as well as a well-groomed dog. Karis is responsible, dependable and a very good friend to humans and puppies! She will take good care of anything left in her charge.

Karis is very caring and responsible. She is my niece actually and I have been with her when she has cared for my brother’s 9 dogs while he was on vacation. She also has her own sweet little dog named Audrey. I would trust her totally to walk and care for my dog! Carol P.

Safety, trust & environment

My 19 month old son and I love going on walks with our dog 😀 We would love to take your dog to the park or on the Swamp Rabbit Trail or even around our neighborhood. We live in an apartment but there is plenty of walking space and even yard space to play outside. My son is great with animals and very gentle even though he is young. It would also be great experience for him to be around more pets and we would love adding your fur baby to our daily routine ❤️
