PETS ARE MY PASSION!

Pet care experience

I have over twenty years of pet and home sitting experience! Ever since I was a small child caring for animals has been a passion that I have always cherished which is why it is so easy for me to treat my clients pets as if they were my own, with lots of love and attention. Through the years I have cared for many types of animals, large and small with cats, dogs, birds and reptiles included. I am trained in Pet CPR, First Aid and administering medications. What sets me apart is that I truly love what I do and therefore I do believe the saying "When you love what you do you do it well." I am extremely trustworthy, dependable and truly passionate about the outstanding service I give to my clients.

It's so hard to leave our pets for a day, a weekend, or an extended vacation; we worry about them like they are our children. However if you want a worry-free trip away from home, call Karen Kravitz! I have never known anyone who cared for my pet like they were their own; I was almost afraid my pup would want to go home with her! Karen was prompt, professional, sent me daily pictures and even a video of my dog playing in the yard. Our Highest recommendation for Karen!

When we decided to go out of town for a recent 10-day family vacation, we were not sure who would watch our 2 Australian Shepherds, our indoor-outdoor cat/kitten, our snake and our fish, since our neighbors are no longer able to help us out in these situations. Through a good friend, we lucked-out and met Karen K.!!! She intently and patiently listened to all our particular issues and schedules (dogs sleep inside at night; who eats what, where; how to get the cat/kitten IN the house; how to give the snake her water; what happens in inclement weather; etc.) while our dogs got to know her at our house. She truly loves animals!...and they know it! When we left, she had instructions; but we did not know that a big rain/wind storm would arrive shortly after we departed. Karen handled the situation with ease and notified us that all was well. She sent pictures of our pets and asked pertinent questions (via text) as needed. We were SOOO happy and blessed to have her caring for our pet-family that could not join us on that trip. At our request, she stayed the nights at our house and seemed to be self-contained. We're so glad to now have a friendly and reliable pet-sitter who can literally "hold down the fort." :)

I have had Karen take care of my pets several times. She is most reliable. Always does everything on my list plus provides lots of hugs and pets for my Sammy, Tigger and Skitty. I would highly recommend her.

We have been using Karen for the past couple of months to check on our dogs while we are at work. She has been wonderful! The dogs love her and look forward to her daily visits! Karen is dependable and trustworthy and a true dog lover! You can definitely rest assured that your pets are being taken care of by Karen! We plan to use her overnight services when we go out of town and can't take our dogs with us!
