“We are so happy that our 18 month old golden retriever, Darla had her 1st stay away from home with Jennifer and Matthew. Jenn sent updates and pictures of Darla playing and having fun with her fur babies. Jenn was very prompt in getting back to us with any questions we had. She and her family were extremely welcoming and gave us a comforting sense that Darla was well cared for in a clean, organized and loving home. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jenn and Matt and look forward to working with them soon!”


“As with the last sitting, my dog Sweetums had a wonderful time with Joe and Celeste. When we dropped her off for this stay, she knew where she was and was excited to stay. Sweetums is 4 months old but she remembered from her last stay the doggy door they have. She ran back and forth a few times like this is cool. Now I'm going to have to get a doggy door LOL. They treat her like she was their own. And I swear she grew an inch in 4 days. Thanks Joe & Celeste”

“Donna was amazing! Kept me informed throughout each day of his stay with pics. This was my first rover and I was totally at ease with Donna. Thankful I found her and will definitely use her again.”

“Atina was amazing! Aspyn, our 15w/o Mini Aussie is a ball of energy and needs lots of attention, so I had several questions and requests before booking. Atina delivered perfectly! I loved that Aspyn received one-on-one attention, playtime, daily walks, and socialization with her senior dogs while still sticking to her normal routine as much as possible. She accommodated everything I needed, and offered more, which I appreciated so much. From the moment I arrived and saw the setup she created for her “clients”, it was obvious she has truly found her calling and goes above and beyond for every fur baby in her care. The regular pictures and updates made being away so much easier. Aspyn will continue to go on vacation with us, but stay 15 minutes away with Atina. I highly recommend Atina for dogs of any age! Everyone needs a little Atina in their life!💜🐶✌🏼”


“My dog Sterling had a wonderful time with Abi and her daughter. I went over all of Sterli's quirk's like his love of going to bed early. Abi made sure he went to sleep the same time her daughter did. He even had a small playmate later in the week. Abi took great care of him. She took him on car rides to drop off and pick up her daughter from school; I'm sure he loved that as well. The only negative thing for me was I was unaware it wasn't a smoke free home. I could smell cigarette smoke when I dropped him off. I'm sure it didn't affect him time with Abi.”

“Lara was great!! Moxie seemed to warm right up to her and her family. She kept me updated with pics and video. I will definitely be contacting her in the future for any doggy sleepover needs!!! Thanks again Lara!!!!”

“My job requires flexibility. Danielle worked with me, responded quickly and made my changing scheduling easy. Most importantly, the updates and photos Danielle sent while caring for my pet provided comfort knowing he was happy and doing well. I will use Danielle again in the future.”

“Debra lives in a 2 family house with a family member in the other apartment, so when my dog Bella was staying with Debra she wasn’t very often alone between the two people taking care of her. Debra sent lots of photo and written updates which was much appreciated. Debra has a fenced in backyard where Bella enjoyed spending time. Bella seemed very happy when we picked her up! We would definitely hire Debra to sit Bella again.”

“I could not have been happier with Katherine. She sent me pictures every day of Lola and I know she gave her all the attention my pup needs. Highly recommend her if you are in need of a sitter for you dog.”

“Holly is truly the best! I had to leave my dog for a week with her while I went on vacation, and she was awesome! Sent videos/ pictures everyday, which was very reassuring! Moose had an amazing time and got to play all day with her pups. I can’t recommend her enough!! :)”

“Highly recommend Kyle, he was very communicative and took very good care of our dogs. Our dogs were happy and tired out by pick up time, we will definitely be booking again in the future!”


“Katelyn was wonderful with Oscar and extremely responsive. She sent me many texts and pictures to keep me updated on how Oscar was doing. Great fenced in yard and Oscar loves the sun! Thanks Katelyn for taking such good care!”

“Amy was great with our dog, Charlie. He suffers from separation anxiety which seems to be getting worse. He wasn't doing well at all in the hotel room so we decided to try a sitter. He was restless his first day, but that was to be expected. By day 2 he was having a great time with her pups! She saved our vacation and Charlie got to have play dates. Win win! Thanks again Amy!”

“Jorie is wonderful! We have used her services multiple times and couldn’t be happier! You can really tell she loves dogs. She is excellent at providing text and picture updates to give you peace of mind while you are away on a trip. Finley had a great time visiting and playing with her pup Bailey. This last time he was so excited to visit he was pulling on the leash to get inside Jorie’s house. I think that shows you that Finley loves it there. (I can tell you that he sure doesn’t do that when we go to the groomer… lol). I Definitely recommend Jorie to care for your furry family member.”

“If you are looking for a pet sitter for your fur baby, look no further. Melissa is a caring responsible pet owner and will care for your pet as if it is her own. She was very conscious of Josie’s routine and habits. I felt very comfortable leaving her with Melissa. I received pictures and updates everyday. Definitely will be using Melissa again to watch Josie.”

“Luciana & C are great! My fur baby stayed a week with them and I feel they loved on him as I do. Great communication and kelp in touch daily with us. I highly recommend them for your fur babies. We will definitely choose them again.”

“Janice is a great pet sitter. Our cat Benny stayed at her home for a couple of days and Benny felt comfortable and relaxed. Janice would send us pictures of Benny and our cat looked like if it was his home. I highly recommend Janice for pet sitting. Thank you Janice.”

About: I have over 30 years experience taking care of dogs and will provide the love and care they need in their new "home away from home". I have a whole house generator so in case of storms, there will be no interruption in service. I am a very active individual and typically walk at least 3-5 miles per day with my little toy fox terrier. I am a nature lover and frequent the area's hiking trails and love to get out on the beach. I prepare my dog's meals using all natural ingredients (whole foods) and make a very healthy bone broth and organic barley. With parental permission I can use this as topper for your dog's kibble. I am a retired school teacher and am available year round. I am basically home all the time when I am not out on the nature trails. I would prefer sitting for dogs that weigh 30 pounds or less. Your fur baby will receive the love and attention it deserves from Caring Karen. I am a retired school teacher and when I am not out on the nature trails walking dogs, I am at home cooking or gardening. Your dog will receive lots of love and attention from Caring Karen. I have a fenced-in side yard and a gated back deck. My house is set back on a wooded lot with lots of shade. I live in a very quiet and safe neighborhood on a private road that is a dead-end. I know most of my neighbors and this is my forever home.
