Pet care experience

Home full-time

I have had dogs all of my life but my home has been pet free the last couple of years. I've really been missing having a dog I'm the house. I house/dog sit frequently for family and friends. I'm retired with a lot of spare time to play with your furry friend/s! I've always had a love for all animals and can't wait to share it with your pet. I have a large home where your pet will be free to roam and play. If they like to swim there is a beach right down my street! Dogs of all breeds and sizes are welcome. We can play fetch or snuggle in bed. I'm willing to do whatever your pet loves the most! Thanks for reading!

Karen was so living to my baby, she almost didn’t want to leave her home. Karen updated me frequently, esp since it was the first time I left my pet. She & her husband a truly dog lovers. Thanks again Karen

I had Karen watch my dog while I was on a business trip. It was an amazing experience! I brought Knox over to her house for a meet and greet, and then dropped him off a few days later. I got plenty of updates while I was gone, and she was very helpful and understanding when I needed to extend the dates. Knox seemed very comfortable and Karen and her husband make your baby feel right at home. Will definitely be using her in the future!
