Introduction: Hello! Walking dogs and sitting for pets is my great pleasure. I specialize in walking dogs in parks and on hiking trails, but if you prefer a neighborhood, that is great. Multiple services offered including letting animals out for bathroom breaks, walks, dog park adventures, and sitting. Sitting can be in short stops per day, or longer periods. Your house or mine. Feel confident when away from your pets, as I will treat your fur babies as my own. I have owned dogs and cats for decades, and am comfortable with all ages and sizes. Online payment options and website coming soon!! Ask about my satisfaction guarantee.

I truly appreciate the way NPDW cares for my fur kids when we are away. Whether we have needed last minute potty breaks, walks, or extended vacation sitting; the dogs love their service. Karl is calm and loving, and always goes above and beyond. Will never hire anyone else...EVER. Thanks, Karl. 😀

I highly recommend North Park Dogs Walking and Pet Sitting. Karl has been my dog sitter/walker for almost a year, he is the absolute BEST. He is reliable, trustworthy and competent. I never worry about my pet or my house when I know that Karl is going to be watching my dog. You can tell that NPDogs care about animals and always goes the extra mile. Karl always sends me updates about my dog and is very astute to any concerns. My family and my dog feel very fortunate that we found Karl and his company.

Karl is the best! He was our current dog sitter for our Pitbull, but when we rescued another Pitbull, Karl stopped by to meet her and gave us some tips, especially for having two big dogs. He even came by a couple times a day for a week to check on both dogs to make sure they were getting along. We’d never had two dogs at one time, so we were worried how it’d go. The new dog escaped her crate one day, but when Karl found them, there was just one big pile of dogs snuggling on the couch! He texted me every day with updates and put my mind at ease that our doggies were well taken care of!

Karl is a compassionate and skilled dog whisperer! He quickly gained the confidence of my fearful rescue and gave me huge peace of mind with the knowledge that my pup was in safe, professional and loving hands. I rate North Park Dogs a 20 on a scale of 1 to 10. Highly, highly recommend.
