Highlights
Pet care experience
Your Dog’s New Best Friend 🐶
I have always had a special place in my heart for dogs, and caring for them feels truly natural to me. Being a pet sitter allows me to share that love while giving owners the reassurance that their dog is in kind, responsible hands. I had my own dog, who is now in heaven, and the bond we shared shaped the way I care for animals today. That experience taught me patience, empathy, and how important it is for dogs to feel safe, loved, and understood. I know how deeply pets are loved by their families, and I treat every dog with the same care and affection. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, including walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight stays in the owner’s home. I always follow each dog’s routine and respect the owner’s instructions to help pets feel calm and comfortable. For the wellbeing of all animals, I only accept vaccinated pets into my home. I am attentive, gentle, and genuinely enjoy making dogs feel happy, relaxed, and cared for while their owners are away.

Ratings and reviews
Karen was absolutely amazing with our Border Collie, Nori! We had to travel to Italy for a wedding and were really struggling to find someone who was comfortable looking after an unspayed female, especially as there was a chance she could come into heat during our stay. Karen was a lifesaver! From the very beginning, she made us feel completely at ease, and Nori felt right at home with her. She took such great care of her and made sure she had everything she needed. It was clear that Nori was happy, relaxed, and very well looked after. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to leave Nori with, and we would absolutely trust Karen with her again in the future. Highly recommended! ❤️
Colt and Toby really enjoyed their stay with Karen, they came home very happy and would definitely go back to Karen in the future
A week with Karen was a vacation for our dog! Scout was so well cared for while we were on holidays and it gave us peace of mind. Thanks, Karen!
Looked after my dog very well. Thanks so much Karen. Would defo book again

Schedule
I work from home, which allows me to give pets lots of attention during the day. I truly enjoy their company, so they become part of my routine, whether that’s going for walks, relaxing at home, or spending time in the garden. My goal is always to make them feel safe, happy and comfortable

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fully fenced garden where dogs can go outside whenever they like. They usually stay inside the house with me, but they are free to move between the house and the garden as they wish.
A typical day
I love keeping pets active and happy. We can go for walks, play in the garden, and spend time playing with their favorite toys. I also enjoy giving them lots of attention and cuddles so they feel relaxed and at home.

- Before caring for a pet, I like to know about their routine, feeding schedule, and any special needs. It’s also helpful to know about their personality, energy level, and how they get along with other dogs. I also like to know if they have any medical conditions or medications.
