Pet care experience

Life long dog lover

I have had dogs all of my life. I recently had to put my dogs down and miss them terribly so hoping to care for others and get my dog fix.

Karen is wonderful! Our dog Winslow loves going to her house and is happy and healthy each time we've picked her up. We're very thankful to have such a great alternative to a kennel when we are out of town. Thank you, Karen!

We just finished our second pet sitting service with Karen, and everything went well. Karen is so sweet and patient with our dog, and we really appreciate her taking care of our little girl. Thank you Karen :)

Karen took great care of our two senior beagles! She was very understanding of their behavioral quirks. Both hounds came home happy and healthy!

I work from home but do have appointments throughout the day so able to spend a lot of time with them. I have owned dogs my whole life and miss having them in my home.
