About: Cornerstone Gundog Academy member and founder of the South LA chapter, I train a Boykin spaniel through trust-based, collar-free methods that empower dogs to think independently. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly rhythm. I work full-time weekdays, but weekends are fully open for boarding. With our first baby arriving soon, I’ll be staying local and can offer consistent attention. Dogs used to weekday routines can be accommodated with flexible care, ensuring they’re comfortable and well looked after even during my work schedule. At our home, dogs enjoy a safe, fully fenced play yard where they get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and interaction. Whether they’re boarding for the weekend or just dropping by during the week, each dog receives thoughtful attention based on their routine and personality. I focus on trust-based handling methods to make every visit feel comfortable and stress-free.

“I had Karleen watch my dog while I went on vacation for a couple of days. My dog, Sammy, does not usually like to be at other people's homes, but he looked like he really enjoyed being there and he was not shy with her like he is with other sitters. She is such a friendly person and she is very caring for Sammy's needs. She is definitely going to be my go-to sitter when going out on vacation from now on. If Sammy likes her then I do too!”
