Pet care experience
From one fellow dog mom to another- I’m confident working with dogs of all ages and energy levels, whether it’s taking long walks, going to the beach, or visiting the dog park. I love getting active and making sure pups have both the exercise and mental stimulation they need. When it’s time to wind down, I’m just as happy snuggling up on the couch (if they’re allowed!) for a movie night or quiet companionship. Whether your dog is playful, shy, energetic, or senior — I meet them where they’re at and treat them like family every step of the way. I have been caring for friends, family and neighbors pets since I was about 10 years old, always providing them a friendly face and companion until their family returns to find a happy healthy tail wagging pup ready to be reunited with their person! I’ve also raised two dogs — a pit bull and a pit-lab mix — from 8-12 weeks old into adulthood, both of whom had anxiety and tummy sensitivities requiring special diets. That experience taught me not only how to care for pets physically, but how to support them emotionally, too — with patience, consistency, and love.

Reviews
Karleigh does great with my dog. She spent time making sure she was all pottied and had an energetic walk. My dog princess loves to sit and watch animals and set the pace of her walk depending on what new scents there are, Karleigh did great adapting to what Princess needed to be satisfied and tired from her walks. Karleigh also takes the time to play and make sure princess was stimulated with her toys and bonded well with treats and cuddles. Princess gets so excited to see Karleigh she tends to have an accident, but that just means karleigh does a wonderful job and is one of her favorite people to see.
I’m delighted to recommend Karleigh D. as a truly exceptional dog sitter. From the moment she met Baxter and Nala, it was clear she has a genuine gift for connecting with animals. My two pups absolutely adore her. Tail wags, playful zoomies, and relaxed cuddles are all part of their greeting ritual whenever she arrives. Karleigh is unfailingly responsible and dependable. She arrives promptly, follows our care routine to the letter, and even takes the initiative to send photos and updates throughout the day so I never have to worry. She knows Baxter’s favorite game and Nala’s special dietary needs, and she adapts effortlessly to their individual personalities and moods. Thanks to Karleigh’s warmth, professionalism, and creative play ideas, my pets are always happy and well cared for, even when we’re away for long stretches. I couldn’t ask for anyone better to look after our furry family members!
Incredibly loving and kind person, will treat your pets like her own member of the family. Would not trust anyone over her to care for my pets, she’s always my first pick.

Safety, trust & environment
I provide pet care in your home, where your pets feel most secure and comfortable. I follow all care instructions to the letter — from leash protocols and feeding times to special diets, crate routines, and medication schedules. I take time to get to know your pet’s behavior, energy level, and comfort zone so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free. For dogs, I always double-check gates, harnesses, and leashes before walks and keep them on a consistent routine. For cats, I’m attentive to litter box cleanliness, hiding spots, and signs of stress. My goal is to keep your pets happy, safe, and loved — just like they are when you’re home!
Information Karleigh D. would like to know about your pet
If your pet has any kind of dietary needs/restrictions/medications or even if your pet is a little more sensitive to sounds, other people or other dogs on walks would be great to know in advance! I do have a peanut & tree nut allergy so if you have treats that would be nut free that I can provide your pet that would also be greatly appreciated! Pumpkin instead of peanut butter in a Kong seems to be a great swap for a fun treat!
A typical day
I love to get out and get active so if your pet loves to play, I’m their new best-friend. Long walks, trips to the park or simply just fetch in the backyard. If your pet is more low energy I love a good snuggle on the couch, it’s always nice to have a cuddle buddy for those afternoon thunder boomers where we can just enjoy a movie and their afternoon nap!

Availability
Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine since I’m currently in school finishing my accounting degree and only attend in-person classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9 AM to 1:30 PM. I’m available for morning walks and drop-ins before class, and afternoon/evening care after class. On weekdays I am not in class I am available for whatever fits your pets routine! I also offer weekend availability and overnight stays in your home for pets who do best in their own space. From early-morning potty breaks to evening feedings and medication routines, I’m able to work around your pet’s specific needs, energy levels, and schedule — whether that’s a puppy with crate training needs or a senior pet who enjoys quiet companionship.
