Shelter volunteer and foster

*We currently have one foster cat Hello there, My name is Karen / but not 'a Karen,' I swear. I volunteer walking dogs at the local shelter so am comfortable with pretty much all pets (but we do live in an apartment so please see bottom section for ones we cannot care for). We have fostered everything from energetic puppies to FIV+ cats, couch potatoes to zoomie kings-and-queens. Seniors and animals who need lots of affection are our specialties! We have one dog. She is 7 lbs, 14 years old, blind, and stays in a bedroom sleeping for the most part. Fosters come and go and will be noted on the top line if current residing. I am not regularly working because of some health issues, so there is a ton of flexibility in my schedule and in our home. If I'm not around, my boyfriend Dave usually is: sometimes he might be the one caring for and walking your pet, or meeting up with you for pick up/drop off. Once in a while, I work 8 hour shifts on weekends, but he is home during that. After doing Rover for a few months, we realized that Dave ends up doing quite a bit! Please know that even though you'll mostly be messaging me through the app, he will play a very big part in the pet-sitting. Between the two of us, your pet will not be alone much at all while boarding. We also have lots of toys, beds, a crate, and snacks, so all you’ll have to bring is food. To me, there is no point in having a pet unless you're going to spoil them. I will do everything possible to make sure your loved one isn't missing you too much. There are a few pets we’re unable to take. Our apartment can be noisy with people outside, neighbors coming in and out, etc…If your dog is nervous and fearful, those noises can exacerbate that in an already strange situation/new place for them. We also want to be respectful of our neighbors so cannot take loud, constant barking. A normal amount is expected : ) Because we have so many furry friends coming and going, we now require vaccination records and proof of purchase for flea meds before your first visit.

Karen is a very kind and conscientious sitter. She is very careful to provide a safe and welcoming environment and my dog clearly likes her. She is also flexible and a good communicator. 10/10

Karen was great!! She was recommended to me when my original sitter wasn’t available and I’m so happy she was. She spent extra time with my kittens to make sure they were happy and cared for in my absence. Definitely recommend!

Karen is caring and communicative. I have no worries when my anxious pup is in her care, and I really appreciated her flexibility for my impromptu trip up North.

Karen has been great, and so kind and compassionate to my aging pup with some mobility limitations.

Sicherheit, Vertrauen & Umgebung

Generally, I just am very loving to all creatures. I volunteer a lot and am used to many, many kinds of animals. I live in a loft, so that can be confusing sometimes for dogs who are used to going potty in a yard (leashed potty break on a city street and puppy pads are what typically do here), but there is plenty of space to run around in the loft because it is one open space, so playtime is not an issue.

Ein typischer Tag

I try to go to a park or walk once a day while pups are here, but we are able to play fetch indoors and have lots of other toys, like chews, ropes for tug, and stuffies. I really look forward to hearing from you : )

All kinds of pets are welcome here! The most important bit of info is: can your dog go potty on a leash or puppy pad (which I provide if needed)? We have to go down an elevator to get outside, and then we are on a busy city street where there are only small patches of grass and oftentimes things on the sidewalk to navigate around. Do they bark often? I also like to ask about schedule for sleep, food, and walks so that we can stick to your dog or cat's routine. Are they allowed to have any dog treats or human food? Lastly, is it okay if I take them to the park? We frequent Belle Isle and Michigan Central Station. Repeat customers: please let me know if you are interested in allowing another dog to be boarded at the same time as yours. I’ll assume not by default. If I get a booking during your dates with another repeat client who I know the temperament of and it's a good fit, I will offer you both discounts for the stay : ) I am acquiring a lot of favorites who I think would probably get along great! I update my bio and calendar often, so please check back from time to time : ) If you have concerns or it says I’m unavailable during dates you’re interested in, shoot me a message and I’ll try to make it work!
