Refurral-based personal pet care
Hi, I'm Kari, nice to meet you!
I am a referral-based pet and house sitter based in SE Portland, and I love receiving referrals from my clients. I have cared for cats and dogs for decades, and I take my duties and responsibilities seriously, so much so that I made it my business! As a dog owner, I understand what it's like to leave your pet and home; that's why you can count on me to keep your pet(s) safe and your home secure.
I provide customized care solely for cats and dogs and am First Aid and CPR certified for both. I have experience working with small and large breeds, puppies, kitties, and elderly pets.
If you are interested in booking a service with me, please text me at 503-607-8096 or email me at thinkaripdx@gmail.com

Client Testimonials


"Can’t recommend Kari enough. She took wonderful care of our energetic golden retriever. She took him down by the river and bathed him without us even asking. She took the cutest Polaroid pictures of him that we will cherish forever. Our house was cleaner than it was when we left. Can’t wait to have her back!"
- Caroline L.






"Kari did a fantastic job caring for our two dogs while we were out of town for a weekend. She kept the dogs on their normal routine, which reduced anxiety for both them and me. She kept us well informed and paid close attention to any instructions or details given. She was very respectful of our home and incredibly patient."
- Kasey D.
"Our dog loves Kari! She was referred to us, and we couldn't be more at ease when we are away or need a drop-in. She is communicative, attentive, and always leaves our dog happy and the house in good shape."
- Ilan K.
"Kari was excellent! She took great care of our older doggie while we were away. She checked in with us regularly, and we always knew he was safe, comfortable, and very happy in her care. We also really appreciated having her stay at our house—our plants and flowers that require extra attention were well cared for."
- Lisa S.
