Pet Lover ♥️

Pet care experience

My pet care journey started at age 6 when a dog became my lifelong companion for 18 unforgettable years. More than a pet, she was a cherished family member, guiding me through life's challenges. This deep bond taught me the essentials of pet care and fostered an unconditional love for animals. I offer specialized care for senior pets, emergency first aid, meticulous medication management, and customized care plans catering to each pet's needs. Selecting a pet sitter is a significant decision, and I'm committed to earning your trust. My extensive experience and profound affection for animals ensure your pet receives unparalleled care, joy, and love in your absence.

Karen did a great job hosting my dog Pippa for doggy day care. She was very flexible with my last-minute scheduling request and in accommodating Pippa’s needs relating to her separation anxiety. I’m sure I’ll be reaching out to Karen again in the future!

Karen was great with Bash and shared lots of pictures. She accepted him at the last minute because I had to go out of town!

Karen walked our puppy Luna twice last week. It is clear that she loves dogs and Luna immediately bonded with her. Karen is very punctual and she sent cute pictures from her walks and she's very atteyti the dogs needs. I would very much recommend Karen.

Information Karen H. would like to know about your pet

Before we begin, it's crucial for me to understand any specific restrictions your pet may have. I'm passionate about engaging in active play and runs, so it's important to know if your pet has any health issues, such as heart conditions, that could affect their ability to participate in such activities. Should there be any concerns, rest assured we'll adapt to gentler activities to safeguard their well-being.

A typical day

☀️ My day starts at 8 a.m., setting the stage for a morning filled with activity as I take your dog for our first walk at 8:30 a.m. This early stroll ensures a calm start before I attend to my other duties. We adhere to a thrice-daily walking schedule — morning, afternoon, and just before 7 p.m. — to maintain your pet's stable and healthy routine. If your dog requires a specific diet or has walking restrictions, I'm more than willing to accommodate these needs, closely following any schedules you provide. Depending on what suits your dog best, we can plan visits to the dog park in the morning or afternoon, offering a variety of stimulating environments for exercise and play. Throughout the day, your dog's meals will be served exactly as you specify, ensuring their well-being and happiness from dawn till dusk.
