Dog lover, fenced yard, exercise

Pet care experience

I am a dog lover, who has been caring for dogs my entire life. Dogs are a member of my family and receive top notch care and attention. I work 5 minutes from home and am flexible. My work schedule follows the local school district schedule so I get extended breaks and time home. I have a large fenced in yard next to an elementary school to provide lots of entertainment for dogs. I enjoy walking dogs every evening and playing fetch in the yard. I have trained puppies. I have also worked with older dogs. I am also able to give medication if needed. I am looking forward to providing love, care and attention to your family dog while you need to be away.

Karen was absolutely wonderful with our dog, China. China had back surgery two years ago and lost her dog-sister last year, so she’s been a bit more sensitive and not very comfortable staying around other dogs. Karen was incredibly understanding and kept China as the only dog in her home, which gave us so much peace of mind. She sent us daily pictures and updates, and we could tell China was relaxed and well cared for the entire time. When we got back, China was happy, healthy, and completely herself — as if we had never left. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Karen.

I felt very comfortable leaving Sophers and Liza with Karen for the week. Loved the pictures I got while we were away too!
