Pet care experience

I have had a passion for animals all my life. Growing up on a farm, it was only natural to go into the veterinary field. I became a licensed veterinary technician with the state of Delaware in 2010. July 2004 to present I work at 24 hour emergency and specialty referral hospital. I started my career in 1996 at a wellness veterinary hospital. December 2017 I became a Fear Free Certified Professional. I am a member of Pet Sitters International. I am also a member of DVMA, AVMA, NAVTA, and AHVMA( all veterinary associations). If your pet has special needs or medical conditions I have the experience to take care of any situation. Right now due to my work schedule it is best for me to do in home boarding. However, if you have medical issues I can assist you in your home after work. I work in New Castle Delaware so I am also available to do lunch time walks for your dog. I work Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, on these days I can only provide a lunch time service and late evening service. Tuesdays, Saturdays and Sundays I can do multiple visits. My schedule has some flexibility, so contact me and we can work out what best works for you and your four legged fur babies.

I'm a vet, and Karen has been closely working with me for many years as a licensed veterinary nurse. She is the most professional, responsible and caring nurse I have ever worked with! Lucky is the pet that will be cared for by her!

Karen has devoted her life to taking care of animals from a young age to the present she’s been in the veterinary business for most of her life. She was there to help me with my dog on every issue including the sad time when I had to put my dog down. I would highly recommend Karen for taking care of your pet.
