RELIABLE EXPERIENCED 24 HOUR CARE

Pet care experience

I have a deep love for all animals big and small. I've actually owned 6 dogs at 1 time! I am retired, allowing me to provide 24-hour care for your furbabies. Unlike other petsitters, when you board your furbabies at my home, I only care for 1 family's pets at a time. I've owned cats, cockatiels, an african grey parrot, a horse, a donkey, turtles, and fish. I was a dog show handler for my dalmatian, Bogie and won WD (Winners Dog) in the Austin major dog show.

Karen took great care of Olivia. There were many thunderstorms and Olivia was very scared. Karen took such good care of her. We will definitely contact Karen again if we need care for Olivia.

Karen was very responsive and attentive. I knew my dogs were well taken care of. I received a lot of photos. She even had toys for the dogs to play with!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
