Love and Care for Your Pets!

I've had the pleasure of taking care of various furry friends, including dogs, cats, and even some smaller critters like gerbils, birds, and guinea pigs. I've provided feeding, walking, grooming, and playtime for these adorable companions. It's always been a joy to spend time with animals and make sure they're well taken care of! 🐾😊

Excellent dog sitter — caring, responsible, and great with puppies. Pluto loved them. We will definitely book again.

If I could give more than five stars I would!! Karen was great with our two dogs, and it was so wonderful knowing they were being well taken care of and loved on while we were out of town. They came home happy and healthy, and we will definitely be using her again.

A typical day

There are so many fun activities to do with dogs! I enjoy taking them for long walks or hikes, playing fetch in the backyard. Dogs love to explore, so going on a little adventure together can be super exciting! I also like to try and teach them some new tricks or have a cozy cuddle session with some treats.

It's important to know their feeding schedule, any allergies they might have, and their usual potty times. Also, understanding their temperament is key—like if they're friendly with other dogs or if they get anxious about certain things. It's good to know their favorite toys and activities too, so I can keep them happy and entertained.
