Vet Tech experiance, home full time

Pet care experience

I used to work as a Vet Tech for 3 years. Up until a few years ago I have always had an indoor dog and/or cat. When our fur baby Milly (Pit/ Staffy) passed and we found we enjoy entertaining a variety of breeds. Since then we have got another pit baby Ollie. He has grown up with a new pup in the house almost daily. He loves friends! He is very well socialized and loves everyone! We would love to share all our love with your Fur baby. My kids love when the fur babies want in bed with them. I have a nice sized fenced in back yard, and different sized kennels, including an extra large kennel. Also an exterior 10x 10 covered kennel outside. We love bringing your sweet baby in to our home to get some loving from all of us. I have 4 kids 20, 18, 13, 8. They all love animals and know how to treat fur babies. We have 5 cats, Shadow, Toofless, Athena, Mustashio, & Corbin. We are in a nice neighborhood and can take daily walks if that is what your pup enjoys. We play fetch in the back yard all the time. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! Thank you for considering us!

Karen was the perfect sitter for my senior dog. I can tell when he’s had a good time and it showed. I will definitely use Karen again and would highly recommend her.

Karen and her family are great. I was very nervous to leave my baby brownie, but I had peace of my the entire week while she was with them. She is very sweet and kind and sent me an update when I asked and without asked. Brownie definitely had a good time and will come back. Thank you !!

Karen and her family were great. They took excellent care of my pet and helped administer her medication while she was there. Karen is excellent at communicating with you and sending updates and sweet photos so you know how things are going. Would definitely recommend!

I will definitely use her again. I had a long eventful weekend and not having to worry about our fur baby made it even better. The kids were asking about her and I was able to show them pictures and updates that Karen sent. Thanks again, Karen.

Information Karen D. would like to know about your pet

Please inform me if your fur baby shows aggression toward children, other animals, or food/toy protection agression. Is your fur baby a runner, will they bolt when the door is open? All this information is good to know so that way the correct precautions can be taken. Is your fur baby an inside or outside pet? Is your fur baby frightened by loud noise, like the vacuum? WE LOVE PIT BULLS! I have worked with just about all breeds.

A typical day

We can do short or long walks, play ball or frisbee in the back yard. My son loves it when the puppies like to run around the yard and chase him.
