I adore dogs!
Pet care experience
I think of dogs as an extension of self. Intelligent, loving, well-behaved--this is what makes me the right person to take care of your best friend. I am reliable and conscientious, caring and fun-loving. Dogs are naturally drawn to me, and I--to them. I was the favorite of our family dog, a beagle named Tinker, and I promise to be a favorite of your family dog, as well. I love the out of doors, and will take your dog—as approved—to parks and beaches. We’ll play catch, and run together, too. A certified fitness instructor, I can keep up with the most active breed, and think every breed has its special merit. Finally, I take responsibility for the well-being of another very seriously, working part-time as a personal assistant now for 13 years.
Reviews
Karen is the only person to bring my high energy border collie home tired. He now knows the time she comes for his walks and waits by the door for her arrival . When she arrives he barks madly for me to let him out to greet her. She always has a treat or two in her pocket for Cooper. Reliable and good natured, I give Karen 6 stars out of 5.
Karen babysat my little Cocker Spaniel mix, Bowser while we were on vacation. He absolutely adores her and was just happy as could be. He got lots of walks and, more importantly, lots of love & reassurance while I was gone. I've never left my fur-baby with anyone before (and sending him off to a strange kennel was just unthinkable!) and was worried but there was no reason to be. Karen was gracious enough to send me daily updates and photos that totally put my mind at ease. I would not only recommend her with 10,000 stars, but would have her care for Sir Bowser again in a heartbeat!
