Caring, Dog-Loving Nurse & Singer!

Pet care experience

I loved and cared for 2 sweet Cairn Terriers over the past 15 years when I lived in New Jersey with my parents. Since moving to the city 10 years ago, my fiancé and I haven't had the time to fully commit to owning a dog and we are looking to care for, play and love your dog on our days off from work. I am a nurse anesthetist by day and perform in community theater in my free time. My fiancé, Byron, is an actor and bellman. We both miss having dogs in our life and would love the opportunity to care for your precious puppy. Dog sitting has also helped us save for our wedding in October! We appreciate your business! Thank you!

Karen was a pleasure to know . She has a great personality and we instantly knew she would do good with our little Mojo . She and her fiancé were very accommodating wrt timing considering we got delayed while picking him up . Their reassurance made our drive back from our trip less stressful and mojo looked his happy self when we finally got there . I am sure Mojo had an amazing experience and it's finally nice to have a good dog sitter in Roosevelt Island . We are definitely going to use their services again .

Karen and Byron are the best sitters ever! I cannot rave about them enough to praise how wonderfully they took care of our Zorro!! They kept us posted with frequent updates and even pictures!!! Zorro came home just as healthy as we had left him, but I truly think he still misses them!!!! Thank you Karen and Byron!!!!! :))

Karen is an amazing dog sitter!! She has cares for two dogs in her life before and they have been happy and healthy!! She has a strong sense of responsibility and I have never known her to be even a little bit lazy when it comes to dog care. She is a loving and kind person and I have no doubt she would be an "in demand" dog sitter.
