House Sitting in Rexford

“Karina did a great job with Bella and was openly kind, courteous, trusting, attentive, responsible, respectful, communicative and just all around the perfect pet sitter! She was so accomodating and helpful from the initial time I reached out to her. I was so relieved and happy when she said she could help! Bella, enjoyed time with Karina too. I could tell bc when I arrived home Bella was well adjusted and it looked like I had never left. Definitely will book Karina again and recommend her to all. You won't be disappointed!”

About: Growing up, dogs have always been an integral part of my life. From the moment I was a child, I was fortunate to have a furry companion by my side. My first dog, a cheerful Labrador named Buddy, taught me the true meaning of loyalty and unconditional love. I remember how he would greet me with wagging tail every day after school, his eyes shining with excitement. As I grew older, my bond with dogs only deepened. Each dog brought its own unique personality and joy into my life. There was Max, the mischievous Beagle who loved to dig holes in the yard, and then there was Daisy, a gentle Golden Retriever who was the perfect therapy dog, always calming and comforting. These experiences shaped my understanding of patience, responsibility, and compassion. Having dogs my whole life has also meant facing some challenges—like caring for their health, training them, and saying goodbye when the time comes. Those moments were heartbreaking, but they also reinforced the preciousness of every moment spent together. Their unwavering loyalty and the pure happiness they radiate have left a lasting impact on me. Overall, my lifelong relationship with dogs has been a journey filled with love, learning, and unforgettable memories. They’ve been more than pets; they’ve been family, teachers, and best friends. I can’t imagine my life. I am currently off for the summer! Looking for someone to get exercise with and have fun! I have a pretty open schedule to fit all of your needs! Understanding the pet’s needs: Gather detailed info about the pet’s diet, routines, health issues, and preferences from the owner. Creating a safe environment: Ensure the space is free of hazards, and provide a comfortable area for eating, sleeping, and playing. Feeding and hydration: Follow the owner’s instructions for meals, treats, and fresh water. Exercise and mental stimulation: Engage the pet with appropriate play, walks, or training activities. Grooming and hygiene: Assist with brushing, bathing, or cleaning up after the pet as instructed. Medication and health monitoring: Administer medications if needed, and observe for signs of illness or discomfort, reporting any concerns to the owner. Security: Keep doors, gates, and fences secure; supervise outdoor activities.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all age and sizes since I was a child. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to do anything their pet needs while they’re away. In the future I’m looking to take a dog training course and slow transition into that as a full time job. Every morning I wake up and immediately tend to the dogs and let them outside to use the bathroom and play around, then we come Inside to eat breakfast to start the day. We go outside about 3x daily to potty and play. I have a big privacy fenced in yard for play time. I have 4 dogs of my own. However I typically do not let them converse with my boarding dogs unless known that they are friendly.

About: My family owned an animal kennel rescue for a few years. It has given me very useful knowledge of what to do in emergency situations. It gives me a respect for the animal(s). I have had to act quickly before when an animal was hit by a car or bitten by another animal. So as drastic as those two things are I just want you to know I have been in those types of situations so if anything would happen to your fur baby I am ready to respond. I will go above and beyond to make sure your little baby comes home just as happy if not happier. I know how being away from mom/dad can make them sad. I want the owners to enjoy their trip or their day at work to the best of their abilities and not have to worry if their pet is being taken care of correctly. No more wondering, book me!! I look forward in meeting your pet. I am currently a full stay at home pet mom so I am here to watch your pet any time of day any day of week. We have a fair size yard for the dogs to play in. Some is fenced in and we are working on getting the rest of it enclosed. I do allow pets on the furniture. I will respect your rules though. I don’t want the animals to get confused. As long as they didn’t just play in a mud puddle, We will continue to follow your rules. I do not want them to get confused when it times to go back home or for you to come home. I will respect anything you would want me to follow. I am a very easy going person. And we look forward in meeting your pet.

About: I have a love for dogs and cats, I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats. All of my life I grew up around dogs and cats, I am very comfortable around big dogs and small dogs. I am able to help with all animal needs necessary. I am usually free at all times of the day so always able to help when needed. I work a rotating schedule but am off work at this time so I am free at any time of day and would love to help anyone out. I can take dogs on walks, spend time with them at home, feed and water them. Since I have two cats I know how to provide gentle care, clean litter boxes, feed and water them.

I’ve driven all around for pet care before and always make it a point to ease into home of the pet. I also have always enjoyed dog walking or dropping in for a pet visit/check in, it’s like free pet therapy to me!

“Can’t thank Sari enough. She came in on short notice, was so genuine and friendly, quick to respond and helped my dog go through her first ever heat cycle. My dog having her dog period was very unexpected and I could not be more grateful for having someone like Sari. She sent pictures and was very caring for my animals. Would highly recommend to anyone in need of pup sitting services. She should be on the front cover of Rover magazine if there was one. THANK YOU!!”

About: I’ve been a pet lover ever since I’m a kid. I own 7 cats and they are my whole heart, I truly love them more than anything else. I would love nothing more than to help you and your pet in a time of need ❤️ Currently, I live in my own home with my seven kitties. I typically wake up around 5 am and spend a bit of time with my animals and feed them and clean their boxes and all that other fun stuff! Caring for my pets is my number one priority, they truly do mean the world to me. I strive to create a pet friendly environment where my animals and yours will be happy and comfortable! My seven babies are comfortable with other cats and are for the most part comfortable with dogs. My two cats, Nala and Val, are quite skittish but arrangements can be made so that they aren’t around dogs if need be. I have a spare bedroom that is mostly for the cats with litter boxes and toys set up, but that room can be used for boarding or just to give our animals a bit of time to get used to each other! If you have a dog who likes to run around outside, accommodations can definitely be made for that as well! My yard is not fenced in, but it’s spacious enough that I can run around with your pup! Truly, whatever accommodations you need, I am happy to help.

About: With recent puppy experience and a background as a nurse, I will care for you doggos exactly as you would. Be at peace while traveling knowing your pet family is in good hands. :) I have a full time job, however as a nurse I only work 3 nights a week—the others are available. I can be flexible as necessary! I provide attentive services—paying special attention to diets, behaviors, continuing training, and potty habits. If your dog has special needs, I am happy to accommodate!
