Pet care experience

I love all animals!!

Hi! My name is Karen and I’m 26 years old with my own license and reliable transportation. I have a golden retriever and cat at my parent’s house that I help care for often. I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life and cats for 7 years. I’ve been professionally dog walking for 6 years and pet sitting for 7 years. I’m very patient with puppies as I have had them myself and know how to puppy proof the house and follow them around constantly if needed so they don’t eat anything. I’ll always check with you to ensure I’m doing my very best to care for your pets how you would if you were there as I understand being away from your pets is hard on both of you. I can’t wait to meet you!! I’m currently working in person part time and virtually part time as well as some extra activities that are some in person, some virtual, and some blended. My schedule changes often but it’s pretty flexible so I’ll be able to arrange my schedule to ensure I’m there enough to care for your pets. I will make sure they feel at home. I’ll also make sure everything around the house gets taken care of. I’ll also send lots of pictures and communicate with you often.

Karen was great. So communicative. I never worried about our pup because we had consistently updated. We came home to a pristine house and a very happy doggy. We would absolutely have her back.

Karen took great care of our sweet pup while we were on vacation. She sent us pictures and updates regularly. Our house was spotless when we returned.
