Your pup's home away from home!

Pet care experience

Rest easy, knowing that your beloved dog is in experienced and loving hands. As a dog-lover, dog rescue volunteer/foster, and long-time dog owner, I know that dogs are a part of our families. I treat all the dogs in my care as if they were my own and give them a safe, loving, and fun home away from home. I will take the time to understand your dog's daily routine and carefully replicate them while your dog is with me. Does he/she get daily walks at a certain time? No problem: we'll keep to the same schedule. Does your dog need to take medications? I've got you covered. Does your dog sleep with you at night? I'm happy to share my bed as well! Additionally, I've turned my backyard space into a doggie play area, which your pampered pooch will be welcome to use! They'll have so much fun sun-bathing and playing fetch in their private dog park! As a dedicated dog rescue volunteer, I have fostered and rehabilitated over a dozen dogs and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, breeds, and temperaments. I love all dogs! I also have a special place in my heart for dogs with special needs, from elderly dogs enjoying their golden years, dogs with medical conditions, and shy dogs. I've worked with many abandoned and abused dogs who have trouble trusting humans, and I love helping them come out of their shells. If this is your dog, know that he/she is welcome here and will be in great hands.

Karen was so great! She helped me with the process of using Rover, because I had never used it before. My pup seemed to love spending time with her, and she was awesome at sending updates and pictures! I was never worried while I was away. I will definitely board my dog with Karen again!

Karen is absolutely fabulous. She made our dog a happy home. Her updates were timely and informative, she talked with us about what we have done and really put into place a consistent home environment, and even taught our dog a few tricks for mental stimulation. Couldn't recommend her more.

This past weekend was my first time using Rover, and Karen was great! She was very friendly with me and my dogs, helped walk me through the process, and kept me updated while I was away! I will definitely use Karen again when I go out of town.

Quincy had a fantastic time with Karen! She took him to the dog park, played outside and gave him lots of love! Quincy came back exhausted, I will definitely be using Karen again! :)

Information Karen M. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what type of food your dog eats and when, what medical conditions he/she has (if any), and whether he/she takes oral medications (how much, what kind, and when). I'd also like to know a bit about your dog's temperament and how he/she is around other dogs.

A typical day

I am happy to take your dogs out for walks around my neighborhood, which is very dog friendly and safe. I also have a medium-sized backyard which I use as a doggie play area. Your dog will have lots of fun sun-bathing and playing fetch in his/her very own dog park! Your dog will be welcome on my couches and bed. However, if you would like them to sleep in a crate or their own bed, you are welcome to provide them.
