Karen Approved Pet Care
Pet care experience
****My drop in visit includes dog walking! Please check if dog walking option is not available. Servicing Plainsboro, Princeton, West Windsor, and surrounding area. With 14 years of loving and caring for my own Basset Hound, I've developed a deep understanding and passion for pet care. My journey with my Basset Hound has taught me the nuances of handling a breed known for its unique temperament and needs. This experience has not only deepened my patience and empathy but also honed my skills in addressing the diverse requirements of different pets. In addition to my personal pet ownership, I have extended my care to other animals, enriching my experience in handling a variety of pets with their own distinct personalities and care needs. My approach to pet care is rooted in the belief that every animal deserves individualized attention and a nurturing environment. Whether it's managing specific diets, engaging in appropriate exercise routines, or providing comforting companionship, my priority is always the well-being and happiness of the pets under my care. I'm excited to bring this wealth of experience and heartfelt dedication to your beloved furry family members.

Information Karen D. would like to know about your pet
Knowing key information about a pet ahead of time is crucial to providing proper care and ensuring a positive experience. Understanding their dietary needs, any allergies or medical conditions, daily routines, and temperament is essential. It helps me tailor my approach, ensuring I have the right food, medications, or any special accommodations ready. Knowing a pet's likes, dislikes, and quirks also helps build trust and rapport, making the pet feel more comfortable and secure during their time with me. To ensure that I can provide the best service possible, please inform me ahead of time about the specific time range you prefer for drop-in visits or dog walks. Your input on timing is invaluable in allowing me to plan my schedule effectively and meet your pet's needs promptly.
A typical day
When I watch pets, I prioritize engaging and enjoyable activities to ensure they have a great time. From energetic games of fetch in the backyard to leisurely walks in the park, I tailor activities to each pet's preferences and energy levels. Additionally, I always ensure pets receive plenty of love, attention, and affection to keep their tails wagging or their purrs going strong throughout their time under my care.
