Caring, attentive animal lover

Pet care experience

I grew up with multiple dogs and cats as pets, as well as a guinea pig, turtle and parrot through the years. I even wanted to be a vet at one point! My love for animals runs deep and that translates to individual attention for each pet I care for. I take time to connect with your pet and learn how best to interact with them to meet their needs. I'm also happy to accommodate reasonable requests for special attention.

Karen was so sweet and took incredible care of our kitties. One of them especially takes awhile to warm up to strangers and they became friends in a short time! She was easy to communicate with and so easy going. Will definitely rebook her in the future.

Karen is very nice and easy to work with. Our dogs quickly warmed up to her, which isn’t always the case with new people around our dogs. She was also great at being understanding that our dogs were dog aggressive, and seemed very capable in handling it. During her visit she had great communication.

We love Karen! We had a long trip away, and I was really anxious about being gone for so long, but Karen came through and put me at ease. She was thorough, communicative, and kind, and Billy was comfortable with her right away. Also, we loved the photo updates she sent along the way. ☺️ Billy can’t wait to see Karen again!

Karen was great with Mae! She came over for a meet and greet then stayed at our place. She was communicative and understanding of my shy girl’s specific needs. I’ll definitely be using her again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
