Pet care experience

UPDATE: 11/09/25 Just wanted to let everyone know that I won’t be providing any services from the 1st of December 2025 until the 27th of December 2025. Thank you all very much Dear dog parents, I'm a big dog lover and I'll assure you I'll love and care for your dog as if it was my own! I'm well educated about dog care as I took some animal classes in high school and a vet assistant course . I have taken care of my own fur baby for 11 years before she passed, she was the cutest feisty chihuahua. I see dogs as a blessing and they truly are angels that become such a wonderful part of our lives. I know and understand how important your fur babies are to you so Im very dedicated to providing the best care possible for them. Sincerely Your friendly dog walker/sitter

So personalized and exceptionally calm. Thank you so much. All of the extra treats is such a pleasant surprise, too.

Karen is thoughtful and sensitive and clearly treasures dogs. This was the first time we left our dog in about 3 years and he did great. He was healthy and happy when we picked him up.

Karen had a very warm and patient demeanor. While I attended a wedding, Karen updated me with photos of my beagle and was always responsive to my texts when I asked how my dog was doing. Chloe appeared very content and rested when I picked her up. Karen also gave me a gift bag with a framed photo of my dog with treats. Thanks again for taking such good care of my dog.
