Highlights

Pet care experience

Your fur baby's new bestie

I've had 2 dogs of my own in the past, which I raised from puppy stage to adult. I have also had experience taking care of new born puppies so I know how to crate train, potty train, walk dogs, etc.

Safety, trust & environment

I can give a pet lots of attention and care. If necessary, I can bathe them, take them out for walks, play with them, etc. My apartment is very spacey so they can feel comfortable at my home. If staying at my clients home is necessary, I am open to that and I will follow the dog's schedule based on their needs.

Karen is the absolute best. We love the photos and appreciate the updates while taking care of our pups. She’s been looking after them for a few years now.

Schedule

I am home most of the time because I work from home so taking care of a pet would be no issue with me. I can dedicate a lot of time to making sure your pet gets lots of attention and good care.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Karen can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
It's important for me to know what qualities your dog has so I can do things that make him/her feel as comfortable as possible and make them feel at home. I'd like to know what their schedule is like, what they eat, what they are like, etc. Knowing all this gives me a better idea of how I should approach them.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
