About Kara

Experience: 8 yrs

Hello fellow dog owners! My name is Kara. I'm reliable, trustworthy, and attentive, with a focus on making life easier and brighter for the people (and pups!) I care for. I live in Sanford with my friendly 10-year-old beagle mix. She's well-socialized and loves other dogs. I'm a retired Realtor with 25 years of experience and a Florida native, and I'm happy to provide excellent references. Non-smoker/drinker. I offer boarding in my home, pending a meet-and-greet with my beagle mix to make sure everyone is comfortable and gets along. I understand that inviting someone to care for your dog is an important decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. Your pup will be treated like family while they're here!

I can’t recommend Kara enough! She took care of my dog as if she were her own, and it gave me complete peace of mind while I was on vacation. Kara kept me updated throughout my trip with thoughtful messages, photos, and check-ins, which meant so much to me. It was clear my dog was happy, comfortable, and receiving lots of love and attention. When I picked her up, she was relaxed, well cared for, and had clearly been treated like part of the family. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, compassionate, and truly loves animals, I highly recommend Kara for dog sitting, dog boarding, and pet care. I will absolutely trust her with my dog again in the future! Bonus- she will give your pup a bath for a small extra fee so your dog is fresh and clean!
