She is great! Oden, our 4 years old Siberian cat, felt comfortable with her since the very beginning. We asked her to update us as much as possible and she did an excellent job. Oden, the diva, could have eaten more, but Karen did everything possible to understand and accommodate his needs. Very highly recommended :-)

Karen took great care of our cats, sent updates very often and kept them entertained and happy! She stayed at our place and everything was tidy and clean when we got back, we definitely recommend her!

Karen was fantastic. She responded immediately and came the same day to take care of Blixtra, which was a lifesaver. Calm, reliable, and clearly great with dogs—I felt comfortable right away leaving Blixtra in her care. Would absolutely book again.

Karen is a wonderful pet sitter!! I was blown away by her care for my fur baby and home. She even got my cat a toy that she is now obsessed with! My cat never plays with toys (or so I thought)! Karen sent great updates. My cat was in wonderful, capable hands while I was away. It was clear from the videos that my fur baby was having a BLAST with Karen. When I returned home, my house was in perfect condition and my cat was at ease. I highly recommend Karen as a house sitter!

Kände mig trygg med att lämna min hund Rex till Karen. Fick daglig rapport om långa härliga promenader. Kan bara säga lycka till, till nästa brukare!!

My dog and I were very pleased with Karen, she took really good care of him and was very flexible in the organisation. Karen stayed even over in our house for the best support to our dog. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and friendly persitter.

Pets

A typical day

I will probably want to play more than they do because I will be so happy to be with an animal 😊 I love walking so your dog(s) and I will get plenty of steps in. I let the cat set their terms, they will get as much or as little as they prefer ha. Personally I will want to play with them and cuddle as much as they will let me.

All of general questions of course, food, meds. Where do they usually sleep at night, other general rules around the house ie not on sofa etc For dogs is your dog reactive to other dogs/kids/misc? What is the best way to help them settle down? Any current/long term medical issues? What is the general routine walks/food.
