Pet care experience

Experienced Loving Dog Sitter

I myself am a dog mom to a grumpy but loving 10 year old shih tzu. But my pet experience includes fishes, rodents and cats as well! I have walked and sat many other dogs from chihuahuas to poodles to huskies. I enjoy taking them on long walks and meeting other dogs on the way. I love bonding and playing with energetic pups but also down to relax with an older or tired dog. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend!

Karen feels like a friend. My Ccts and house were looked after beautifully. She came on schedule and had no issues with the alarm system. Highly recommend

Karen is a true sweetheart. Lovely to talk to and clearly has a true connection with animals. Wonderful spirit, easy to trust. She did a great job with our two moody cats. We would definitely have Karen back!

Super sweet! She’ll actually walk the full time specified and sends updates as needed. It’s hard to find someone who’s willing to walk the full 60 minutes so much recommended

Karen Maldonado is just an overall amazing person when it comes to dogs. She will occasionally help me walk my dogs, being I have 3 and walking them along isn't easy. My 3 dogs, Teddy, Kobe, and Buddy, all love her. Upon hearing her voice my dogs go insane for her. She's great with them. Any dog would be happy to be with her. She's just a joyful person with a positive attitude. Her love for dogs is amazing.
