I love all kinds of cats and dogs!

Pet care experience

I am an animal lover! I love all sorts of animals but must confess that cats and dogs are my favorites. I have had cats and/or dogs nearly all of my life so I feel as if I have the necessary experience to take care of yours. Whenever I pet sit, I love to spoil them by giving them extra attention while their "parents" are away. I would love to get to know your fur babies. I like to have a feeding schedule that explains how much and how often the pets are to be fed. Locations of food/bowls is also appreciated. I will also clean up pet waste, if needed. I look forward to taking care of your fur babies as if they were my own.

Karen was absolutely amazing. She was very communicative, flexible and reliable. She was timely and spent quality time with the dogs.She sent pics of the dogs, which is very hard to get them to stay still for.

Karen stayed at our home and cared for our pup while we were away for 5 days. We were so nervous because our dog had never been left with anyone but family, but Karen eased all of our worries! She was very communicative throughout the stay, always responding to messages promptly. She sent many photos and I knew our dog was being well cared for. Our pup was happy when we got home. We will definitely use Karen again! ☺️

Karen took excellent care of my cats for 16 days. Karen is reliable, conscientious, prompt, and an all around lovely person. I recommend her highly.

Safety, trust & environment

I do not have a fenced yard so I am unable to board dogs at my home. I prefer to watch dogs in their own homes where I feel that they are most comfortable.

Information Karen G. would like to know about your pet

It is helpful to know if your dog has any special needs or habits. I like to keep the daily routine as close as possible so the dog does not become stressed.

A typical day

I like to play with dogs in their own home/yard. I typically do not like to take dogs on walks due to the unpredictability of other dogs that may be encountered during a walk.
