I have been a pet owner pretty much most of my life. I have cared for my own pets, my four children's pets and lots of friends' pets. I am an animal lover. I grew up on a working farm in Alabama. I feel very sensitive to pets' needs especially when their loved ones are away from home. I am clear and direct in my communication style. I’m originally from Alabama. I’ve been exploring in Italy, France and the PNW, predominately in Oregon for the past 2 years. I’m looking forward to becoming a part of this community. I’ve made many close bonds with pets as well as owners. As a homeowner and professional organizer, I feel I truly understand your needs for a reliable, orderly and trustworthy sitter in your home. I have relied upon others to stay in my home and love on our pets. My disposition is outgoing, friendly. I’m self aware. I am easy to work with and trustworthy. Being respectful of other people’s time, homes and especially their four legged family members. Animals and people alike seem to enjoy my presence. Thanks! Karen PS: My repeat score is low because several of my clients and I dealt directly with one another after the first sit.
