Karen,was awesome! She cared for our pets and home while we were on vacation for 10 days. Great communication! She sent daily updates and numerous pictures of their time together. She gave us piece of mind to fully enjoy our vacation knowing that they were well taken care of. When we returned, our pets were happy and the house looked cleaner than when we left!

We were very lucky to have Karen come to our RV and watch our Frenchie. She did a great job. We will request her again on our next Tennessee adventure. Thank you Karen!!!

Karen took wonderful care of my three cats while I was away, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! She stayed overnight with them, sent daily updates and photos that gave me so much peace of mind, and treated them like they were her own. It was obvious from the photos, and even more so when I returned home, that my cats absolutely loved having her there. They got plenty of cuddles, attention, and excellent care. Karen was also incredibly respectful of my home and somehow left it even cleaner than she found it. She’s friendly, kind, dependable, and an excellent communicator. I was so impressed with the care she provided that I’ve already booked her again, and I fully expect to continue using her whenever I need a cat sitter. I highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely care for both their pets and their home!

Karen did a great job with Harper - we knew she was in good hands while we were away. She is very attentive and sent a lot of photos, and we came home to a very clean home. I would definitely hire Karen again.

THANK YOU KAREN !!!!! Karen was AMAZING! She took the time to come meet my little guy before my trip and he took to her right away. She helped make me feel very comfortable leaving Titan in her care. She stayed at my place with him and I could tell he was well taken care of by the way he acted when I got home. She sent updates with pics throughout the day which I appreciated so very much. I already have another booking with her planned !
