Your pets are your children!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Karla and I’m a twenty two year old college student who now is a certified dog trainer. I am currently taking new clients for dog training as well! I’m also in the progress of completing more certifications to go along with dog training and handling to make sure your pets are getting the care they deserve! Adding to that I’m also in school to be a Veterinary Technician! (I like to stay busy 😄) I do currently work full-time as a veterinary assistant. I have a lot of experience with all different breeds and temperaments. I’ve worked previously at multiple different dog kennels in St.Mary’s and Charles County. Animals have always had a very special place in my heart. I have two dogs of my own who I love as if they were my own children so I understand the love you have for your pets along with the struggle of trying to find the perfect person to watch them and how your pets feel as if they are your own children. I promise you your pets are in good hands with me. I also have experience with farm animals as well, if needed. If prices are ever to high for you I am willing to compromise. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your pets. If you have any questions for me please feel free to ask!

Great work, she took care of our cat and kept us updated while we were out of town. It put our minds at ease. Will use again.

Karla was great! She was very willing to work with us due to last minute changes that couldn't be helped which was very much appreciated as it was already a stressful situation. Came back to 2 happy dogs and the house just as we left it. Thank you!!!

I try my best to keep all of my clients dogs on a similar schedule to what they are used to being on with their owners.

Information Karla S. would like to know about your pet

Some information I would like to know about your pets are: when they eat and how much they eat, if they have any allergies, if they have any sort of aggression towards other animals or strangers, what they like to do, and of course just about their personality.

A typical day

Depending on the pet and the approval from the pets parents sometimes I like to take the dogs out to local trails or even two get a nice treat.
