ABC Certified Dog Trainer

In Home Pet Sitting - take the stress away from your pet while you're away! I'll come to your pet! Special needs? Is your pet on meds? No problem! I used to work for a veterinarian and have experience giving medications to pets - even if they don't like taking them. Dog Walking/Visit - going to be gone at work all day, and your best friend will be locked up? No worries, I can come offer them a fun walk and/or a fun play time. 45 min visit! Boarding - Let your pet come stay with me in my home! I have a fenced in yard, and a designated area for your pets to sleep while you're away. Dog Training - I'm a certified professional dog trainer and can offer group classes or come to you in your home. 10 years Behavior Modification work! Booked separately. Contact me for more information. I have a cat in my home, but if home visits aren't for you, then kitty can have a special place of their own.

Doggy Day Care • Nov 17, 2025

Karen was super easy to communicate with before our first time coming for daycare. Ruby had a fun-filled day with Harmony and Lyric and was understandably exhausted after all of the playtime. We will gladly utilize Karen’s services in the future.

I have a long work day and Karen was very flexible with drop off/pick up time. Super responsive. I knew Teddy was well taken care of. Would definitely rebook with Karen!

Karen was very responsive to all of our inquiries and sent us updates daily (and pictures) and our dog did very well and was engaged with the other dogs and clearly comfortable!

Karen and her family took great care of our baby! He came home happy and tired out. We also appreciated their flexibility when we had some uncertainty in our plans.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard and a friendly female Labrador retriever who loves having friends over. I have several crates and can crate dogs if needed. I feed my girl twice a day, and she has a toy that she enjoys sharing.

Pets

A typical day

We will go for walks around my neighborhood or yours! For a small additional price, we can take those walks to a local park! In the play yard, we will play fetch with balls or frisbees or make a new friend to play with! If you utilize doggie daycare or overnight boarding in my home, the pets will receive exercise, free play, light training, and participate in enrichment activities such as working through puzzles, snuffle mats, and utilizing kongs and lick mats, etc.
