Home Alone- Never

Pet care experience

I have had animals all my life, I prefer the fluffy and cuddling ones so sorry no reptiles for me. No dog should be home alone since I'm home all day and Sophie needs a friend to play with. All of your expectations will be granted to your dog as well as my own. Not responsible for spoiling them while their here. I have a big fenced yard and lots of walking trails. I take my dog everywhere with me so hopefully yours will enjoy it to.

Belle came home exhausted and I’m sure she had fun with Sophie. Thanks to Karen and hubby for taking care of my girl.

This was our first experience with Karen. We were completely satisfied with all aspects of her care. Her communication was timely and clear. She provided daily notes and photos. Her fenced yard was perfect for our active dog. I intend to be a return customer!

Karen and Sophie are the most welcoming and loving. I frequently received updates and pictures of the nonstop cuddles one of my pups demands while the other one wandered from couch to bed to other bed to nap. Playtimes were so fun that even my sleepy pup got up and ran around for a bit everyday and even went for a walk. When my flight got delayed home, Karen was very kind and accommodating, making me feel once again that I had nothing to worry about. They are now such good friends my pups even wanted Sophie to come home with us when I came to get them. We will happily bring the pack back together anytime.

I have a fenced yard and my Sophie can keep them busy. I have dog beds and honestly never crated a dog before so I would prefer them to be comfortable without one. I have walking trails in my neighborhood so a good walk is daily. I do not take certain breeds- German shepherds, pit bulls, Akita, Rottweiler, Husky, or any mix of these breeds. Had a very bad experience and I want nothing to do with aggressive dogs or potentially aggressive dogs. My job is to keep your pet safe and I dont take the responsibility of watching your dog lightly. Thank you for understanding. I hope I can provide the best care for your family member and loved one ❤️

A typical day

We usually start our morning with coffee in the backyard, chasing squirrels , birds and walking through the garden. After we have treats, we prepare for our walk in the trees. Usually when we get back every takes a nap and I go to work. I work from home so I am always home. Dinner is served in early evening and then ball in the yard or just playing outside. We love to be outdoors. Usually by 8 pm everyone is up for another nap after a full belly. We have cuddle times and we just relax. I have play toys available to everyone and lots of beds around the house. They usually find their place and that's where they sleep. In my bed or I make up a fur lined fluffy place near me. They can go wherever they feel comfortable. Last time out for a potty break and off to bed. I wake up when they wake up. And we start again.
