Hi, I'm Yari
"La Karen Boricua"

My name is Yari, but everyone knows me as “La Karen,” a nickname inspired by the “Cat Karen” meme because of my love for animals.

I have been a volunteer for over 5 years, promoting adoptions and rehabilitating dogs that need confidence in order to find a home. Along with dog trainers, I work to give them a new opportunity.

Today, as “La Karen Boricua,” I educate about animal welfare and help people care for their pets when they are unable to do so due to travel, work, or health reasons.

Certifications:

Pet CPR First Aid Aid & Disaster Response

Usui/Tibetan Master Reiki Practitioner

Trust me to take care of them as if they were my own!

Testimonials

"I recommend her 100%. I had been looking for a long time for someone I could trust to take care of my two dogs, and I found her. Karen has a very kind heart when it comes to animals. She is patient, loving, and knows the needs of each pet. She maintains excellent communication and is very punctual and professional. If you are looking for someone to take care of your pet while you are traveling or for dog walking, she is the person."

Guardian of Nala and Sara

Ps: The best guarantee? is that your pets will fall in love with you and won't miss you .

Guardian of Sucy and Achilles

“Not everyone can come into my home, just like I don’t trust my dog to almost anyone. With Yari I feel confident that she can come into my home and take care of my beloved dog. She always sends me photos and videos of her walks. I recommend her 100%”
