Highlights
Pet care experience
Vet Tech / Animal Lover
I've been a vet tech for over 20 years. I've taken care of animals small to large my whole life. Working in a veterinary setting gives me the unique ability to size up a situation within seconds. I have a keen sense when something is off in an animal and also have an ability to create a comforting, fun, inviting environment for every animal I meet.
Cat care experience
Karen also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
I can tend to your pets in the comfort of their home or they can come to me to romp around my fenced in yard with my 2 well behaved dogs. I have two cats so dogs would need to be cat- safe. Happy to discuss personalized options for care!
Ratings and reviews
Karen cared for our two cats for three days, coming in twice a day. She took the time to read through the instructions and learn our cats' different personalities. Although not usually open to change, the cats became comfortable in her care. We appreciate the care she gave to our girls, came home to happy cats, and would trust Karen to care for them again.
Karen was great - she came and did exactly what I (& the dogs) needed. She was great about communicating clearly and coming ahead of time to meet the dogs and I. We are grateful!
Karen was fantastic and took great care of our cat.
As always Karen took such good care of Coco and gave detailed notes. He is extremely comfortable with her and definitely has found a best friend! We can’t recommend Karen enough!
Karen was amazing! Super reliable and communicative, and my cat was clearly well cared for. Her updates were detailed, and she made sure my cat had plenty of enrichment and attention. I really appreciated the photos and thoughtful notes — I’d definitely book with her again!
Always consistent and leaves me great updates!

Schedule
I'm a mom of 2 beautiful humans so my free time is limited to school hours this time of my life. I love getting outdoors so dog walks are a favorite and I love providing TLC to animals in their homes while their parents are at work.
