Sobre Karine
My name is Karine, living in Madrid, being a dog sitter is an experience filled with joy, challenges, and profound connections. At its core, the motivation for taking on such a role often stems from a deep love for animals and a genuine desire to ensure their well-being. Dog sitters step into the lives of pets when their owners are unable to be there, providing not just basic care but also companionship, love, and security. The experience of being a dog sitter is unique and multifaceted. Each day brings new adventures and learning opportunities. One of the most rewarding aspects is the bond that forms between the sitter and the dogs. These animals have a way of creeping into one’s heart, each with their distinct personalities, quirks, and ways of expressing affection. Witnessing their excitement and joy during playtime, or their contentment as they snuggle up to you, is incredibly fulfilling. A sitter must be adept at reading these emotions and responding appropriately to ensure the dog feels safe and loved.
Caring for a dog a sitter requires attention, affection and responsibility, showing love and comfort, dogs need regular exercise to stay healthy and happy, understanding the dog’s daily schedule, including feeding times and any medication they require, keeping dog’s mind engaged with interactions like toys or training sessions.
Living with dogs my whole life, caring and loving. Being a dogsitter and dogwalker in Brazil (my country of birth) living now in Madrid for a while for new experiences taking care of dogs when his family is not closer.
The dogs can sleep with me in my bed or dog bed that I have prepared for them.
