I will treat your pet as my own

Pet care experience

Hello! I've been dog sitting for about 7 years now. I have worked with several different animals throughout my life. I worked at a zoo for four years as a volunteer which allowed me to learn different animal care. I have also worked in kennels and doggy daycares. I consider myself a very responsible. I will always treat your dog as I treat my own!Caring for animals is one of my passions.

Karen took excellent care of Miles again and was super flexible and accommodating when our flights back got delayed causing us to return a whole day later. It was nice to have one less thing to worry about!

Karen was great! My husband and I had to book super last minute and she was very accommodating. Took our simba on a walk and helped him with his anxiety. Thank you Karen!

Karen took excellent care of our 1 year 2 months old golden retriever. We are highly satisfied with her service and would consider her for future.

Information Karen H. would like to know about your pet

*Please* *complete your pets profile prior to request*. This helps me determine whether or not, I am able to care for your pet. It also helps me while your pet is under my care. If I have any questions I will first look at your pets profile. Also, would like to be aware if your pet uses any med or has any conditions. Please let me know before dropping off if your dog is food aggressive. If your pet is 35+lbs please bring along a crate or kennel in case I need it specially if you already own one (it is normally unlikely that I will use a kennel, but I prefer to have it and not need it, than to not have it and need it).

A typical day

One of my favorite things to do with my dog is playing catch he absolutely loves it. We also play tug-of-war and take nice long walks. But we also like to chill and watch Netflix together
