Pet care experience
I host doggy day care and overnight boarding services for small and medium sized dogs. A perfect place for your dog to stay while you leave out of town and need someone reliable to take care of your furbaby. I love dogs, I play with them, keep them clean and well fed. We love going out on long or short walks around the neighborhood. I’ve been a dog walker for many years and now I host dogs in my home.
Reviews
Karla is friendly and responsive and our dog Rosie took to her quickly. Rosie spent three nights with Karla, and we received updates and pictures. Karla also gave Rosie her medication as requested. Rosie came home happy and tired. We will definitely send Rosie to Karla again!
Karla was so wonderful with our dog. He clearly had a blast during his time with her. She was very responsible and responsive, I had zero concerns leaving our new rescue in her capable and loving hands. Thanks Karla!!
Karla has been great with our dogs. Each time we pick them up we can tell they’ve had a lot of attention and love. We’re looking forward to working with her in the future.
Karla was great. At the last minute Riley had an irritation in his eye & needed eye drops 2 x day. Karla immediately agreed to administer them!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a tall fenced yard so dogs can go outside when needed. I offer breaks frequently, usually every two hours. They are allowed anywhere except main bedroom. All dogs sleep inside, feel free to bring your dog’s crate if he or she sleeps in a crate at night. We love walks around the neighborhood, playing fetch, bouncing ball, tug of war, belly rub time or nap time. We watch movies, listen to music and spend time cooking in the kitchen. We have many toys and treats to share! We also have extra beds for comfort. If you’ll like to bring your own stuff that’s okay too! Whatever you feel like you need to let me know about your pet, please inform me. Anything at all! Your dog is my responsibility and I want to take great care of them. Please share any allergies, medications needed or anything important that I should know about your dog.
Home
Information Karla A. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know what your dog dislikes and loves the most. This will help make their stay with me fun and comfortable. Please inform me of any medications or allergies your dog may have. Some dogs can be sensitive and that would be important information to know too. If you think your dog doesn’t get along with all dogs I highly recommend we set up a meet and greet that way we’re sure we are a great fit. Please no aggressive dogs. When it comes to feeding sometimes when a dog is in a new environment they may skip a meal or two, that’s completely normal. Some dogs get homesick and miss their humans. By the second day they usually eat. Of course I’ll keep you updated on their performance. We take turns eating to make sure everyone is safe and comfortable. Sensitive dogs may get a bit of fresh snacks with your permission only. These snacks are usually unseasoned meats and veggies. I usually always have deli turkey and carrots because my dog loves those and it’s a quick snack. No toxic ingredients will be served like grapes, onions, garlic, avocado, etc. (I’m very familiar with what dogs can’t eat). Thank you so much for considering me as your new dog sitter/walker, I hope to meet or exceed your expectations with your furkid(s)
A typical day
There are a few dog friendly parks around my neighborhood where dogs are allowed. However these parks usually require dogs to stay on leash. I won’t let them run around off leash. When they’re in my home or yard then leash/ harness is off.

Availability
I spend most of my time at home. I am a stay at home mom and work full time from home. My schedule is very flexible, I can accept last minute bookings and extended stays. I can accept early drop offs and late pickups. You can rest assured when you leave your dog with me. I take great care of them and share pictures and/ or videos of your pup. I love dogs of all ages. I can keep them separate if needed too. My dog Cuddles is about 6-7 years old, she’s very calm and sweet. Loves to be around other dogs especially her furiends.
