Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving, reliable care you can trust
With years of hands-on experience caring for hundreds of pets, I bring a level of dedication and knowledge that truly sets me apart. From energetic puppies needing structure and training to senior dogs requiring extra patience, meds, and mobility support—I’ve done it all. I cared for my own beloved pup for 17 wonderful years, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s hands. Whether it’s administering medication, reinforcing good behavior, or just offering lots of love and attention, your dog’s well-being is always my top priority.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Karla always takes great care of our dog, Loki. He is 13 years old, and it's nice knowing he will be accommodated and well looked after. She always gives great updates and is available to talk whenever we need. We will definitely go back and recommend her to anyone we know!
Karla took great care of Bo! We will absolutely work with her again!
Karla is an amazing dog sitter! She was so sweet to our little old pup, took great care of him, and sent us beautiful portraits of him regularly. We felt completely confident in her ability and her compassion.
Karla is the best!
Karla did an EXCELLENT job with my pup! She did a great job sending daily updates, pictures, and taking my pup on so many walks. I appreciated that she picked up on a lot of my dog’s funny little quirks and mentioned them in her updates to me, it really reassured me that my dog was with someone who was paying extra attention to her and who she felt safe being her silly self with. My dog was so relaxed and happy when I came home and I had so much peace of mind thanks to Karla. Could not recommend her more!!!
Karla was absolutely amazing with Sausage. Sausage is a very elderly dog with mobility and anxiety issues and Karla was able to care for and watch over him with patience and persistence, trying multiple ways to calm and soothe him until he was eventually able to settle down. I don’t trust my little pup with just anyone, and Karla never once gave me reason to worry. Clear communication from the get-go with multiple updates throughout the stay. I can’t say enough good things about Karla. We will definitely be asking her to watch Sausage again in the future!

Schedule
Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and my flexible schedule means I’m available when you need me—whether that’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or overnight stays. I prioritize each pet’s unique needs and can easily adjust my day to fit their routine. Whether your dog thrives on a strict schedule or just needs some extra attention and playtime, I’m here to provide consistent, loving care whenever it’s needed.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I welcome your pet into my home as part of the family—because they deserve nothing less! I’m located between two beautiful parks, perfect for daily walks and playtime. My schedule is flexible, and I always tailor care to match your pet’s usual routine, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home.
A typical day
A typical day with me is filled with fun, fresh air, and plenty of tail wags! We start with a morning walk—often to one of the nearby parks or along the scenic harbor, where there’s plenty to sniff and explore. For pups with extra energy, we might head out for a hike or spend time at the dog park to socialize and play. Throughout the day, your pet gets personalized attention, playtime, rest, and cuddles—following the routine they’re used to and keeping them happy and relaxed. Every day is designed to meet their needs and keep them feeling loved, active, and at home.
