Ratings and reviews
Karen was an absolutely phenomenal sitter. On very short notice, she took my pup under her wing and even made time for a meet and greet beforehand. She was incredibly thorough, taking notes on everything important about Indee to make sure my pup was as comfortable as possible while I was away. She did drop-in visits at my house, took Indee on all kinds of fun adventures, and sent a many photos and updates throughout my trip, which gave me so much peace of mind. She also kept an eye on my home and even alerted me to a garage door issue and helped me resolve it! I would recommend Karen a million times over!! I’m so grateful there are people like her who take such amazing care of our fur babies! 💕🐾

Karen took such wonderful care of our fur babies while we were out of town. They absolutely love her. During the meet and greet they took to her like she was part of the family. She has a spirit that makes the animals comfortable immediately. She started sending us photos not long after we left putting us at ease right away and she continued to send photos and videos while we were away. Her communication is amazing. We didn't have one worry while we were gone and think she and our pets had more fun than we did. We will definitely use Karen any time we need someone to watch our animals.




Karen is an AMAZING dog sitter. A dog owner herself, she bonded well with our pup during the meet and greet. She is trustworthy and cared for our Maggie as if she were her own. We couldn’t be more pleased with the daily communication of pics and videos of fun activities. Karen far exceeded our expectations and made this experience stress free … we have found OUR forever dog sitter and highly recommend!

We have been looking for that PERFECT sitter for our boy for several years now. After reaching out to our go to sitters and all of them being busy, we took a chance and contacted Karen. We were her first customers on Rover. All I can say is what a Blessing! Karen went above and beyond! Our boy was so well taken care of! I would highly recommend Karen. She is an amazing sitter. She is our new “go to”. Sitter. (I told her I didn’t want to leave a review and wanted to be selfish and have her for our own!) LOL she is amazing! And highly recommended!

I have used Karen for years as a dog walker initially and then began using her overnight when we travel. She is wonderful with dogs. My dog absolutely loves her - he gets so excited to see her! She is very trustworthy - whenever she comes to walk our dog or stay the night, she leaves the house as she found it. She is an absolute gem and we highly recommend her.
Karen is one of the most conscientious dog caretakers I’ve ever known. She genuinely cares about our dogs’ well-being both emotionally and physically and has been the most dependable dog walker we've ever had. I honestly believe our pets didn’t even miss us while we were on vacation, because Karen spoiled them so much they barely noticed we were gone! Choosing her for our dog care was one of the best decisions we’ve made for our family and I’d wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone else.
