Fun dog lover who will sing/dance!

Pet care experience

I had my family dog with me for over 10 years and my friends all trust me with their dogs as I will pay all the attention to them when necessary! I will give them privacy if needed. Hey dogs need privacy too! I have experience taking care of dogs and taking them in when their owners/parents are out of town and even walk/take care of my boss' dog twice a week! I will try my best to take care of the dogs just like you just to make sure they're fully comfortable. While on walks, I mostly go where your dog goes because they should be able to explore as if they were on their own (I always watch to see if they pick up anything they shouldn't). I'm a fun dog lover who will play with your dog and give him/her scratches when they just need to take a nap or fall asleep. I can also be trusted with medications the dog needs or baths.

I have known Karen for over five years. She is extremely caring and gentle. She loves animals whether it be her own pet or not. I would highly recommend Karen to become a dog caregiver. Once we drove into her driveway a lost dog ran into her car once she opened the door. He knew exactly which one of us to run to for comfort and safety. I've never had a dog so I would be lost. I saw her jump into action and take care of him. Cold and shivering she took him into her arms and wrapped him in a blanket. Yes, maybe any compassionate person would do the same thing but I can honestly say that Karen would make an amazing caregiver.

Karen is everything I could ever ask for in a dogsitter! She has watched my dog, Lukey, a few times when I've been out of town. She always treats my baby like the little prince he is, and even sends me pictures and videos of him while I'm away! When I get home, Lukey always looks happy and well fed! It's a relief to know that when I'm not around, my dog is not only well looked after, but genuinely cared for.

Karen is wonderful, all around, and when it comes to dogs, she somehow manages to be even more wonderful. I have never met someone who loves dogs as much as she does, she literally loves every dog she comes across, and every dog loves her in return. I think she'd be a very responsible and loving dog caregiver, and I think you guys at Rover would be lucky to have her, she truly is one in a trillion.

Karen took care of my three year old babe for five days/four nights over the summer when I went away. My dog is my baby and Karen treated him as such. She was such a darling when she first arrived and I immediately felt like I had made the right choice. My baby looked like he had the best time with Karen while I was gone and I would 10/10 reccomend her to anyone looking for a caring and trusting individual to watch over their pups.

Information Karen F. would like to know about your pet

Does the dog have any daily routines, medications, or specific foods I should/should not be feeding them (besides basic knowledge of what dogs shouldn't eat)? Do they have a favorite treat or do they get a treat for going to the doggies room? Do they have a favorite toy or blanket? Where do they prefer to sleep? Are they vaccinated and what is their vet's contact in case of emergency? Besides that, what would you like for me to know? Please let me know! Disclaimer: I will not use a pronged collar if you use one. I will change the collar to another if you have.

A typical day

I'll go on a walk around my neighborhood. It isn't very populated and not many cars drive through and is completely safe! I'll play fetch or just sit with your dog if that's what they enjoy. I can take them to park or specifically a dog park if they would like.
