Pet care experience
Do you want to give your dog or puppy some socialization and activity, but know that doggy day cares aren't always the best fit? My house could be a great fit. A super friendly dog, a cat who thinks she's a cat, and two work-from-home adults. We have a fenced yard, a crate for dogs who are crate trained or prefer a crate, tons of dog beds, tons of toys, and lots of windows for watching the world go by. I have a nanny cam set up in the living room to keep any eye on everyone if I have to go out. I have a lot of experience with dogs with behavior issues, separation anxiety and health issues. I am really great at introducing shy or unsure dogs to my dog and cat slowly, in a way that sets everyone up for success.
Reviews
Karen hosted my little guy Baloo for a wonderful daycare visit and I would recommend her to others!
Karen took the best care of my pup! Her pictures made me feel so happy knowing my babe was in the best hands!
A+++++++
I have never felt so relaxed leaving our dog with someone. Karen made me feel at ease by her clear love for and knowledge of dogs. She kept us updated throughout our trip and I never worried about our baby! We will definitely be booking with Karen again.

Home
Information Karen H. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dogs has any special needs. I am able to accommodate most. I need to know if an animal has a history of biting, has any food allergies, and what their typical schedule is. I meet with all clients in person before I agree to sit someone's dog, so we can discuss that in person.
A typical day
I live in Belmont Gardens which is a very quiet neighborhood, so we are easily able to avoid other dogs or people if your dog is leash reactive. I also have a big fenced backyard where we can play, if walks are difficult. Bailey loves playing ball, and will play all day. Most of the day is spent napping in the sun and looking out the windows.

Availability
I am home full time so I am able to adjust my activities around the dog that I am watching. I watch a lot of dogs with separation anxiety and so I am able to arrange so that I am not gone for long chunks of time.
