If your pet wants VIP-level love and attention, Karen is the one for you!! She has watched Juno for us multiple times, and every single time was worry‑free because we know Juno is getting all the love, attention, and care she could ever want. Karen has one of the biggest hearts for animals, and it shows in everything she does — from her thoughtful updates and photos to the way she pays attention to every detail. She’s incredibly informative, reliable, and genuinely passionate about making pets feel safe, happy, and at home. You can tell she treats every pet like her own, and that kind of trust is priceless. If you’re looking for someone who goes above and beyond, and will love your pet wholeheartedly, Karen is the person you want. We feel so lucky to have found her, and anyone who books with her will feel the same.

Karen was an excellent pet sitter. She took great care of my boy Spice while I was away. She cleaned the litter box each time she visited, fed him and gave him lots of love. I would absolutely use her again!

Friendly, arrived on time. Prompt acceptance. The perfect dog walking substitute for when I can’t.

"Karen and her husband are absolutely fantastic! They watched our dog several times and treated him like part of their own family. They often shared pictures and updates which gave us such peace of mind. We always knew his needs were being met and that he was showered with love and attention. I recommend Karen without hesitation
