This was the first time Karen babysat my children. She is very trustworthy and responsible. She followed all my lengthy instructions which included giving multiple medications. She let my two boxers sleep on top of her as they’re used to doing. Karen kept me updated with lots of pix. I didn’t have to worry about my house or my children while we were on vacation. We will certainly use her again. Thank you auntie Karen!

It was a wonderful experience having Karen walk my dog. She was great and trustworthy.she sent me pictures and videos on their walk which I was so happy to see. She was patient and spent extra time with my dog so he was comfortable since it was their first time. Will definitely be using her again in the future.

Karen is THE BEST! She took care of our sweet Bella and our home over the freezing weekend in NOLA. She went above and beyond by making sure our pipes didn’t freeze and our puppy was loved! We didn’t worry at all when we were away since she took care of everything! Can’t say enough about how wonderful she is !!

Karen is the absolute best! She was very communicative and shared lots of updates and pictures. I knew my home and my doggie were in very responsible hands! I will definitely book her again when I take my next trip.

I keep pets comfortable in their own homes, following their usual routines to reduce anxiety while you’re away. Pet parents can have peace of mind knowing their fur babies and home are in caring, reliable hands. I take the time to get to know each pet—their personality, daily schedule, activity level, and any health needs—so they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for.
