I am a babysitter and a pet sitter

Pet care experience

What sets me apart is my lifelong experience and deep passion for animals. I’m a professional babysitter and pet sitter, with years of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals—from cats and dogs to horses, ducks, parrots, and more. Growing up on a farm in Colombia gave me unique skills and a natural understanding of animals’ needs, which I bring to every pet I care for. Now, living in the USA I only have cats, but I still carry that same dedication and love for animals, ensuring that every pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared-for. I’ll be happy to help in any way I can and will keep you updated to ensure you always feel connected to your pet’s well-being. While this is considered a job, for me, it’s my dream job—my passion.

The sweetest cat sitter I have had for my cat! My cat is very shy especially around strangers, but she loved Karen right away 🩷

Karen is amazing! So thorough with her care yet so sweet with my babies. My female cat is super shy but after a few visits, Karen got her to come out of her shell. She was also really helpful with fixing a wifi problem for us (which is a big deal when you’re out-of-state & have cameras, auto feeders, etc). Karen is my go-to sitter for sure!!

Information karen Lorena c. would like to know about your pet

I’d love to know if there are any specific health conditions I should be aware of, if the pet has a set schedule for activities, or if they require daily medication.

A typical day

I love having toys around to play with the pets. I also like giving them treats after playtime. going for a little walk is great too.
