“Our pup’s stay with Karen went so well- we highly recommend her and will definitely be bringing our puppy back! Karen was so easy to work with and knew just how to deal with our attention grabbing Yorkie/Pomeranian. He also got to socialize with other dogs which is crucial for him right now. He came home relaxed and calm and we felt good knowing he was in good hands.”
“It was comforting to know that Pepper was in a comfortable space, room to run outside, with plenty of people and pup friends to keep him occupied while we were on vacation! Kyle and Lyndzie sent lots of updates throughout the week too! Gave us peace of mind and we would definitely book with them again!”
“Sarah and her sons Jake and AJ did a great job keeping my doodle Hank entertained and well taken care of! He’s full of energy, loves attention, and they gave him plenty. I received a lot of picture and text updates which was so appreciated and made me relax on vacation knowing he was in good hands!”
“Tara was great! We needed a last minute dog sitter for our 2 yorkies. We were nervous because we have never used rover before. Tara responded quickly and was even able to groom them. That saved us so much time! They had a great time! We will be using Tara again!”
“Kari is a rare find!!! I am new to the area and have used Kari a few times. Her and her husband are very kind and great to my dogs. My dogs used to come home from being boarded at a facility and sleep for days from being so stressed. I pick them up from Kari’s and they are ready to play!?!! Highly recommend ❤️❤️”
About: I have experience fostering dogs with the animal shelter APL and have a small toy poodle of my own. He is very friendly with other dogs and loves to play. I love dogs and would love to have the opportunity to watch dogs and take care of others! I am open to watching dogs for a couple hours, a day, or even a couple of days if that is what is needed. My house has a small backyard and I am also available to do drop ins at the dogs own home. The area is very quiet and would be comfortable for another dog to be in. If I am caring for someone else's dog I plan on being home for the time I'm watching the dog so that it will be well taken care of. I’m currently only working part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your animals. I am available early mornings or early afternoons to give your animal a break during the workday! I am also available any time on the weekends. I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your dog company. I have a toy poodle and a golden retriever. I can also do drops in to walk or play with your dog as well!
