Safety, trust & environment

Having a fenced in yard, it’s very helpful and handy to those pups with bladder issues to go in and out of the house as needed. My home was completely childproof when I moved in and it’s so far worked for dogs as well. Huge open field located next to the house available for dogs who like to run as well.

Information Karen K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know ahead of time if your dog has social anxiety and we can arrange a meet up ahead of time! Any additional care instructions written down would be very helpful as well! :)

A typical day

I love going for walks/hikes and Jeep rides with my dog. She’s full of energy and requires lots of attention so if that’s something your dog needs I can definitely provide!

Pet care experience

Growing up in Vermont on a farm, I have been exposed to animals my entire life. I have been taking care of family and friends dogs, horses, cats, guinea pigs, camels (yes, camels) since I was allowed to leave the driveway on my bike as a child. Since leaving high school I took on a professional equestrian career with Wichita riding academy working with rehabilitating abused/ off the track race horses.

Yes, yes, Karen took great care of our pet, Cinder, and our home while she was here. Easy communicator, responsible, and kind. I am so glad to have found Karen and look forward to calling on her again!

Drop off was easy. Dogs come home tired and happy.

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.
