Loving Overnight Pet Care in a Cozy

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Karen, a lifelong animal lover based in Garland, Texas in Dallas. I offer overnight pet boarding in my home, where your furry friend will be treated like family. I work full-time during the day, but your pet will enjoy a quiet, safe, and comfortable home environment with me every evening and overnight. I provide: Evening walks and playtime Morning feeding and potty breaks Lots of cuddles and attention before bedtime A calm, pet-friendly space with my own pets. I have cat and dog. I specialize in caring for pets who are used to a home routine and just need a loving place to sleep and relax while you're away. I’m happy to accommodate special diets, medications, or routines—just let me know! 📸 I’ll also send daily photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and safe. Let me know if you have any questions or would like to schedule a meet-and-greet! I do meet and greets via online video calls.

Chezzy came back happy and healthy! He had a great time playing with the other dogs and cats!

Karen was a gem and took such good care of Ziggy. He was a little anxious when we first arrived at her home but she very quickly made him feel comfortable and loved.. Ziggy came home and immediately settled in unlike some of his other visits with sitters, it takes him a day or two to get back to normal. We will definitely hire Karen again ❤️

Karen did a great job caring for Luna! She was responsive to inquiries and sent photos while we were on our trip. Her love for pets definitely shined through during our interactions! Would definitely book again and recommend for others!
