A retired INSURED dog lover

Pet care experience

My name is Karen H. and I have raised and taken care of dogs all of my life(a few labs and one chihuahua).I am now retired and enjoy most of my days down in Brewster. Your dog would have lots of love and individual attention! I have a nice fenced in area for them to be able to explore and get their energy out. I’m fully insured and will answer any questions you may have! See you soon!

Fenway enjoyed a stellar "vacation" with Karen. We felt completely at ease leaving our very senior Doxie with her in our home We had a great chat at our house prior to our trip and Karen seemed very comfortable with my three-page "anxious dog mom" info sheet. It is clear she understands senior dogs' needs AND enjoys dogs. She is very friendly. During our four day trip, she communicated very, very frequently which we appreciated. When we came home, the house looked great. She even brought her own bedding and towels! We really appreciate that she also took care of watering our plants which were not going to survive four days in that heat. We highly recommend Karen! She is experienced and trustworthy. We know we will hire her again!
