Our Team

My name is Carolina, the proud owner of Barkhaus. With a Bachelor’s degree in Veterinary Science and working as a veterinary technician at three different clinics, I have dedicated my life to caring for animals. I started Barkhaus to provide reliable, affordable, and loving care that pet parents can feel good about, because I know how important your animals are. At home, I have two German shepherds who keep me on my toes and remind me daily why I love what I do. I personally manage both our Tucson and Tampa locations and am the main point of contact for all clients. I split my time between both Tucson and Tampa, ensuring both locations operate with the same level of reliability, organization, and loving care.

Tucson Sitters!

Meet Alonna! She has a special love for all animals! She has always been very pet-friendly throughout her life, mostly growing up around dogs, big and small. Her family has a pitbull, frenchie, and a chihuahua. She also had kittens, guinea pigs, and hamsters growing up! Right now she has a 1 year old Boston terrier puppy who’s name is Sage and she is Alonna’s best friend. She has a passion for animals and wants to learn more about them. Aside that, she is a student at the University of Arizona studying marketing/business. When she isn’t pet sitting or hanging out with her puppy, she likes to do Pilates, swimming, and hanging out with her friends!

Meet Trevor! Trevor is not only an animal lover, but also a proud member of the United States Air Force. His dedication to service carries over into everything he does—including the way he cares for pets. With a natural connection to animals and a calm, steady presence, Trevor is a favorite among even the most shy or anxious pets. When he’s not on duty, you’ll often find him hanging out with our two shepherds or helping behind the scenes at Barkhaus.

Tampa Sitters

Meet Clementine! She is our lead sitter for the Tampa Bay area with several years of experience caring for a wide range of pets, from household pets to farm animals. She also has experience working with some of the most anxious and shy dogs. At home, she has a “little zoo” with two cats and a dog. Clementine values building lasting relationships with both pets and their owners and prioritizes clear communication with clients. Her future career goals are to work in a healthcare-focused field. When she isn’t pet sitting, she loves to go on adventures with her dog, Bubbas, spend time on the beach, and hangout with friends and family.

Meet Sanay! She is one of our caring sitters serving the Pinellas County and Tampa Bay area. Sanay has always had a passion for animals and lots of experience caring for them, including her own dogs as well as pets for family, friends, and others. Since she was a little girl, she has loved visiting farms and feeding animals, which has made her comfortable around many different types of animals, big and small. In the future, Sanay hopes to become an occupational therapist, helping people regain the ability to perform daily tasks after accidents or trauma. In her free time, she enjoys volunteering in her community, spending time with friends and family, and going on adventures with her mom. She can’t wait to care for your fur babies!

Meet Anna! She was born and raised in New Jersey. She grew up in a family that always had animals around, from dogs and cats to rabbits, ducks, fish, and horses. She has been working in the pet industry since 2024 and has experience caring for pets with a variety of medical and behavioral needs. Anna loves getting to know each pet’s unique personality and believes that patience, trust, and consistency are the key to helping animals feel safe and comfortable. When she’s not petsitting, Anna runs a vintage clothing and antique business with her boyfriend. Together they enjoy gardening, traveling, spending time in nature, and caring for their two rescued rabbits!
