Pet-loving husband and wife

Pet care experience

My wife and I both grew up with dogs and cats. Although we don’t currently have pets of our own, we would be happy to host yours in our house. Your pets will be treated like royalty!

Can’t say enough good things about Karen and Hatem! This was our first time leaving our Newfoundlander(Izzy) with Karen and Hatem. We went on a meet and greet prior too leaving her and they seemed like a great fit and I could tell they love animals and they would be very responsible borders. When I dropped izzy she had a little accident right away and they handled it so well and even though I felt horrible about it they made me feel better and very at ease. Throughout her stay we got daily updates and pics which I loved! I would recommend them to all my fur mommas and papas!

We normally have someone come stay in our house with our dog Lucy, and now that she’s 12 I was very anxious about having her stay away from home. She was anxious too but Hatem and Karen welcomed Lucy into their home and gave her all the love and attention she needed. They sent me plenty of updates and I could see Lucy was settling in, which eased my nervousness. They are both so kind and were a perfect match for my older, anxious dog. I highly recommend them! And I am very grateful to them for making this a wonderful experience.

Karen and Hatem took excellent care of Nova during her stay. They were very communicative and sent me lots of updates which was very reassuring. I was very nervous to leave her with someone new since she is blind and is generally scared of new people, however she was very comfortable in their home. She looks forward to her next stay.

So greatful to have our Australian Shepherd Koda stay with Karen and Hatem for 8 nights while we were away. They were absolutely wonderful! It was evident that Koda was well loved. He had many cuddles and lots of outdoor time which he thoroughly enjoys. We recieved many updates and photos which were reassuring. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you Karen and Hatem😊
