About: “Hi! I’m Kara — I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I know every dog is unique, and I’m committed to giving each one the love and attention they deserve. I’m also skilled in giving medications if needed, so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
