Pet care experience
***NEW*** We now also have 2 fenced in areas. One is 50 feet by 40 feet and the adjacent one is 20 feet by 20 feet.*** I am a 40 year old stay at home mom of three. I have grown up around dogs of all sizes. I really enjoy learning the personalities of the dogs. Dogs have a lot of human traits the love of an animal is one of the best love types there are. I have two dogs and both of them are great big babies. They love playing with other dogs. I love waking dogs and playing with them. I feel like a little kid when I am around dogs. I brush them to make their coats look the best they can. I cuddle with them. My kids love dogs just as much as I do. They are a great big help with walking, feeding, bathing and exercising the dog. My kids are always supervised when they are helping with the dog. We have a huge back yard that dogs love to run and roll around on. I am a stay at home mom. I have a very flexable schedule and would love to work with you to find just the right schedule that works for both of our needs. I have a large field for the pups to run in to let their energy out. My two pups will help to make your pup(s) feel more comfortable. I will follow all instructions given for the entire visit in your home or ours. Pups are treated like family. I work from home. My schedule is very flexible to work with families and their pups. Sunday pick ups and drop off are preferred before 9:00am or after 12:00pm. With notice I will work with you with. I have a huge back yard. I offer runs if dogs are used to them. I have a 40 for lead line so pups think they are free when the are actually on the leash. I have crates if your pup needs one. We offer the pups, blankets, toys, snacks (if allowed), unlimited access to water, and the meals at meal time. Pups are allowed on the furniture if allowed in their home.
Reviews
Karen always takes such good care of Chance! She is very communicative and sends lots of pictures during the stay!
Karen is amazing. It is such a comfort knowing that Tiggy is being looked after by such a caring person and enjoying her family and other dogs in their home. The kennels are a thing of the past now!
Karen and family treat our pups with such good care and love. Another great experience!
Our senior whippet Tiggy just spent 4 days with Karen so that we could make a trip out of state to visit our daughter at college. We are so thrilled to have found Karen - she is so kind. Tiggy had a great time and was far happier with Karen and her family than at the kennels we had tried earlier in the year. Tiggy became part of Karen's family and it was lovely seeing her go out and about in the car to get the kids from school and to soccer practice with them. We received many photos and little texts letting us know how Tiggy was getting on. It's like having family nearby who can step in when you most need it. A big thank you to Karen and her family for looking after our much loved doggo with such care and love.

I have runs that the dogs can be on if there used to being on runs. The pups are never outside without me or my husband. I have crates that the pups can stay in if they're used to that.
Home
Information Karen S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know of special needs (food, meds, crating, handleing ect.). I have no problem with giving meds. It is good to know if the dogs need to always be on a leash or listen well enough to run free. It is good to know if you allow your pups on the furniture. It is good to know if your pup is allowed to have treats (we do not give dogs table food unless instructed by their owner).
A typical day
We go for walks around the neighborhood, playing fetch in the back yard, and possibly swimming. We have a large back yard where the dogs and kids love to run around.
