Best care for your best friend

Pet care experience

I have experience with all shapes and sizes of pets. I can walk/pet sit any size dog, cat and most small animals. I can easily adapt to the energy level of your best friend. Because of my medical training, I am very comfortable giving both oral and injectable medications and know how to handle emergencies. I am mature and responsible so you do not have to worry about me leaving a door open or forgetting an appointment. I clean up after the animals so you come home to a nice calm environment. I can even water the plants. I regularly check in with you so your mind can be at rest while you are away. I have a very open schedule. Feel free to ask any questions.

My dogs always have so much fun with Karen! She's always so loving and energetic with them and taking them on adventures (with my ok) and they get so excited to see her. Really recommend her she's seriously awesome.

Karen is amazing with animals. Dogs are her best friend within minutes of meeting her. Her dogs Baxter and pickles are very friendly with kids, people and other dogs. My large dog Snickers thinks she is the best and is always so excited to see her and give her kisses and snuggles. She has cared for him many times including after his surgery. Her medical background was helpful in administering medication and helping make sure wounds we're clean and cared for. She is an amazing pet sitter and walker. She is also good with other animals like guinea pigs, bunnies and cats which is a plus.

I have an old black lab that I love more than anything in this world I Karen is the only person that I trust go care for him when I'm out of town or any occasion that I can't take him with me. Her dogs are such sweet and loving babies you can tell they come from a home full of love and care. She is so awesome and caring!

Information Karen G. would like to know about your pet

I just want to know their socialization skills with people, kids and other dogs. It is also nice to know if they need more help on a leash or if they do well.

A typical day

I love going to the dog park (with owner permissionof course). My favorite is Hondo dog park in Hillsboro. I like to let dogs stop and smell everything, not just rush them along on our walks.
