Highlights
Pet care experience
I love dogs and dogs love me!!!
Over the years I've had many pets of my own, although I currently don't. My last pet was one I inherited from my daughter and she was in her last 5 years of life, became incontinent and developed dementia. She was a mix of Chihuahua and Jack Russell Terrier. All the more reason to pet sit, dog walk, etc. to satisfy my desire to be with animals. All of my pets were adopted. My Sheeba Enu was a wild child and untrained. So, that took a lot of care on my part to oversee her. She developed a tumor in her kidney, so I cared for her to the end, giving her medicines and intravenous fluids to try to save her. My Akita was very well behaved, however, as most know, one of the breeds people considered dangerous. He was 110 lbs, so, I have experience with big dogs, little dogs and unruly ones. I have pet sit for many friends and family over the years, for favors, in their home and mine, however only have a few photos to share and have never done it professionally. I've never had a dog not like me and hope that continues. I am a massage therapist so I do like to massage dogs and maybe that's why most of them like me. I love doing it for them.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Very accommodating and flexible. Cared for my dog well during a long 930am-1130pm day.
Riley was happy when we picked her up after a weekend with Karen. Karen is responsible, caring and flexible. Our flight was delayed and we were two hours late to pick up Riley, and Karen was understanding. Highly Recommend!
Karen is amazing with pets of all kinds. She is loved by my very picky jindo/shiba mix who trusts almost no one. She used to have multiple dogs at her home all the time, and I know she loves getting to spend time with other animals. She is great at communicating and staying in touch, and I know your pets will have a great time staying with her!
Karen is a blessing! She loves your dogs like you love them. Her skills are top-notch and she cares for the total well-being of our pets. I trust her to not only provide a home for our pet, but you can expect lots of attention, nutrition and exercise for your pets. I would recommend Karen to any dog-lover who needs her services on Rover.
Karen Beatty is an absolutely incredible animal caregiver and dog walker. She took care of my two small dogs — who are not the easiest — with so much patience, attention, and genuine love. From daily walks to gentle care at home, Karen handled everything with the utmost professionalism and compassion. She is reliable, calm, and truly understands animals on a deeper level. My dogs warmed up to her quickly, and I always felt totally at ease knowing they were in her hands. Karen goes above and beyond in every way, and it shows. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pets as if they were her own, Karen is the one. I couldn’t recommend her more highly for dog walking and animal care.
