Compassionate Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I had pets growing up and loved every moment I had with them. When I got on my own, in 1984 I got my first Yorkshire Terrior and fell in love. To date I have had six Yorkies and two are part of my life now. I have a compassion for all animals and would love to take care of your pets. I would treat your precious babies with love and respect and hopefully bond with them so you could relax and not worry about them. I’m currently taking a course online that includes Pet Pschology, Pet Grooming and Pet First Aid, Pet Sitting and Nutrition. I have experience in giving pets medicine and pet CPR. Also 34 years of taking care of Pets and providing them a loving and stable home. I would like the opportunity to do the same for your precious babies.

I have known Karen D. for 30 years and it is because she is one of my most treasured friends. One of my most repeated comments I say to Karen is if, “If I ever die and come back as a dog I want you to be my mommy”. I have had the pleasure of enjoying all of her kids ( Cooder, Spanky, Mia, Titus and Sasha ). Karen has always and continues to provide her kids with the love and affection most people long for and I have witnessed it myself. Two years ago Karen had a major back surgery, I flew from Arizona to Georgia to baby sit Mia and Titus and was honored to be entrusted with such responsibility, the care of her kids. I have never quite met a person like Karen who loves her pet so unconditionally. They have their birthdays and Christmas and I even get videos of them opening their presents. The most important part of this testimony is Karen is also a person of her word, if she tells you she will do something she will do it, she is and always will be one of the very few I would entrust my pet to, she is by the words a dog lover!

I have known Karen for over 25 years. Her passion for her pets define who she is. I've never met anyone in my life who has mortgaged their house to save a dog's life. This is just one example of the compassion she has for animals. I definitely think she would be a great asset to your company she's great with pets and children. I often join her at the dog park with my two chihuahuas. I never have to worry about my fur babies needs when we are all together at the dog park because Karen is always prepared always make sure that there's enough water and treats for all the dogs, including mine. We used to joke around saying that she's going to be the dog Lady of the neighborhood. Turned out it wasn't a joke, she really is the dog Lady of the neighborhood. I honestly believe she would be an asset to your company. I promise you won't be disappointed.

I have known Karen Droste for many years and worked with her on several occasions. I have babysat for her two little yorkies on several occasions in her home and they are great dogs, my adopted furbabies. From stories she has shared with me Ive gathered she has had yorkies all her life and I have no doubt she is well educated on the breed. Karen keeps her pups active and well exercised with frequent trips to the park and play time. She is an awesome mother to her furbabies and I would absolutely trust her with mine.

Information Karen D. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the name and number of the puppies vet and your instructions should an emergency arise. Is your dog ok with walking on lease so I could take them on a walk? Also, are they ok with other dogs and or children. I would like to know anything else that the owner feels necessary for me to know so I can make the experience a fun and inviting time for them.

A typical day

Your fur babies would enjoy a clean and comfortable house. I also have a doggie door that goes into a secure and fenced yard for them to play. We could play catch outside with stuffed toys and balls. I also have a safe neighborhood for a walk to the end of a coldesac, so not a lot of traffic. Also I take my puppies to Tribett Park in Windsor Forest area which is a park for dogs and has a playground for kids. They also have ducks there that roam the park and my dogs love to watch them. I could provide a video of my puppies at the park if requested.
