Information Karen C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has special needs ahead of time. If your dog has anxiety we suggest looking for a Rover provider that comes to your residence. Our yard has neighboring dogs so it’s important that your dog isn’t an escape artist or bark artist. We may require a meet and greet so your dog is comfortable coming here prior to their first day. After a meet and greet dogs arrive running to our gated yard; ready to be here and part of the pack on Day 1! Also please remember to review the Rover Guarantee. https://www.rover.com/rover-guarantee/

A typical day

We live near nature trails and parks to explore. Local watering holes for dogs are close by on hot days. Our yard has plenty of space for rest and relaxation among trees and squirrel chasing.

Pets

Dog loving family

Pet care experience

We can be your dog's home away from home while you travel or need a weekend getaway without your furry family member. We provide opportunities for your dog to hike, walk, run and play with other dogs. We often board 1 dog at a time, unless it’s a special request. It’s important your dog receives a lot of attention and they feel safe and well cared for while you’re away.

My dog loves Karen and family. He isn't happy just anywhere. He needs to feel safe and cared for to be happy and he is in her home.

Can’t say enough good things about Karen! This was the first time we left our 8 month puppy with a dog sitter (for almost a full week), and she had an absolute blast!!! Karen sent pictures and brief updates every day. Oona (our pup) got so much play, exercise, cuddles and love. We count ourselves VERY lucky to have found Karen and look forward to many more visits :)

Phew! What a relief to know that our pup was so happy and well cared for! Karen sent lots of pictures and updates that clearly showed our guy having a great time with Fiona and was completely at home with her family! We could track his many adventures with an Apple tag provided by Karen. We will definitely be calling on Karen for stays in the future!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
