Your pets’ new favorite aunt

Pet care experience

I am a medical student that grew up training horses and helping manage a farm (alongside cows, donkeys, rabbits, chickens, goats, pigs, etc) and regularly looking after more traditional pets. Whatever fur children you may have, I will love as if they were my own!

We cannot say enough great things about Karen. She was great with our fur babies, they loved her instantly. We never worried about anything. Definitely recommend her. 😁

Karen was fantastic. Went above and beyond for our kitties. Thank you so much.

Would highly recommend . Our dog and cat are on the shy side, and Karen was amazing with them. Definitely will be hiring her again.

Karen was excellent. I needed a pet sitter with zero notice when I suddenly had a family member in the hospital. She was so flexible and was sure to send me plenty of pictures and updates, which gave me great peace of mind so I could be present in the hospital. Best of all, my dog warmed to her far faster than other people she meets, so I knew she was in good hands.

Safety, trust & environment

I cannot host pets at my apartment, but I am more than happy to keep them company at yours! Whether they need walked, fed, or just loved on, I have you covered.

Information Karen F. would like to know about your pet

Tell me about your pet’s personality so I can be sure to let you know if they’re feeling unwell. What does their usual day look like? Does your fur child need to stay in a crate or have music/TV on between visits? Do they have a favorite walking route, toy, or treat? No such thing as TMI! If you just want to gush about your pet, my ears are open. Also please leave your vet’s contact information just in case!

A typical day

Our activities of course depend on your pet(s) and their personalities! A senior citizen that’s slowing down? I have the patience for all the quirks and accidents that come with age. Not a fan of new people and things? I’ve worked with loads of anxious animals and am more than happy to take things slow. Let me know what their day normally looks like and I'll do my best to match that!

Loving on animals is the best study break, so rest assured your fur baby will get plenty of my undivided attention when I’m not needed elsewhere! During June and July I will be working a 9 to 5 so will be unavailable for midday drop-ins.
