Safety, trust & environment

I do not host dogs in my home, per my rental agreement, but I am available to house sit when I am not fostering kittens for the ASPCA.

Information Karen F. would like to know about your pet

Tell me about you dog's likes and dislikes. What do they enjoy most? What commands do they know? What do they do that I need to keep a special eye out for?

A typical day

I am very attentive to the pets I'm watching. I make sure they are never stressed about potty breaks and I give them as much physical attention as they need, whether that be playing or walking.

Pet care experience

I treat all pets like it's their last days on earth - I want them to feel happy and loved. My goal is to minimize any stress or anxiety your pet might feel by keeping their schedule exactly the same and offering as much or as little comfort as they need. I'm comfortable with long walks and high energy, as well as health challenged and senior pets.

Karen is amazing! We definitely gave her a challenge, taking care of our older cat as well as a new kitten! During her stay at our house, she was sure to keep us updated on how our kitties were doing, and what great care they received! Our home was well taken care of and in perfect condition when we returned from our trip. We will definitely be hiring Karen again, and highly recommend her services!

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.
