About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with pets and have been around dogs since I was about seven years old. I also spent time every week on my family's farm, where I became comfortable around many different animals, including dogs, cats, horses, cows, bunnies, turtles, chickens, and ducks. Throughout my life, I've cared for multiple dogs of my own and have also pet sat for friends and family. I'm comfortable with walking, feeding, playtime, maintaining established routines, and reinforcing basic training such as sit, stay, come, leash manners, and house-training habits. Growing up around animals taught me to pay attention to their individual personalities and boundaries. I know that some dogs want to play immediately, while others need patience and time before they feel comfortable with someone new. I bring that same patience and attention to every pet I care for. I'll follow your instructions closely and do my best to keep your dog's routine consistent, safe, and enjoyable while you're away. My schedule is flexible, with my strongest availability from Sunday through Wednesday for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care. I'm also open to longer stays and recurring bookings during those days. Thursday and Friday availability may vary, but I can sometimes accommodate evening or overnight care if a later arrival works for your pet's routine. Weekend requests may also be possible depending on the dates and your pet's needs. Feel free to reach out with your schedule—I’m happy to see if we can find a good fit. When caring for pets in a client's home, my priority is to keep their environment and routine as familiar and consistent as possible. I follow the owner's instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, medications, training, sleeping arrangements, and any household rules. I take time to learn each pet's personality, energy level, boundaries, and normal behavior rather than assuming every animal should be handled the same way. I'll reinforce the commands and routines you already use instead of introducing unnecessary changes while you're away. I also understand that trusting someone with your pet means trusting them with your home. I treat both with respect, keep the areas I use clean and organized, secure doors and entrances carefully, and communicate if anything unusual happens. During visits or overnight stays, I can provide regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing and can feel confident that they're safe, comfortable, and receiving attention.

“I am very thankful for Karina’s availability to walk my dog twice a day on New Years’ Eve. She was very communicative throughout the whole day and fed my dog per my request. My doggy was very calm for the rest of the night and I think he really enjoyed the walks and time with Karina. She even brought in my package inside since it was raining! Thank you so much! I look forward to requesting Karina in the future when I have long events!”

About: I have 20+ years of caring for animals of all types. My own dog was unfortunately allergic to grass and almost every type of food. He needed to receive weekly injections in the nape of his neck which I would administer as well as following his prescription protocols to the tee. As the general manager of several different Petcos and PetSmart's, I have amassed quite a bit of knowledge about many animals, especially dogs. I am a nutrition specialist, have experience in grooming, am knowledgeable of natural and medicinal ways to calm hyperactivity, and have extensive experience in many different types of training from proper walking, issuing commands, house breaking, interacting with other dogs, and multiple other aspects of whatever is necessary. If I cannot answer your questions, the trustworthy contacts I have amassed throughout my tenure at these establishments would be more than happy to help with their vast wealth of information. I have also had the unpleasant experience of helping dogs who are experiencing life threatening health complications and know what I am capable of, an also when it is time to seek medical attention. All credentials aside, I truly do love and appreciate animals of all kinds and can't wait to meet yours! I currently work part time and my job is a 2 minute drive from my house so your animal will never be left alone for more than an hour or less. I have a fenced in yard with trees on all sides. I live across the street from an elementary school with a massive fenced in field which is where I like to walk and play fetch and other games with dogs. I have been given carte blanche by the workers there as I have lived here for so many years so I can come and go as I please without any interference.

“Our dog really likes Jon and we feel safe and happy to have her in his care. Super reliable and communicative. It's no wonder he's a recurring fixture for our care needs!”
