Highlights
Pet care experience
Ms. Dolittle
🐹🐰🦮🕷️🦎🦂🐟 🐈🦜🐥🐿️🐭🐥🐍🦋 I'm a passionate pet sitter who adores animals, providing exceptional care privately for the last 14 years, and with Rover for the last 5 years. Ever since I was young I noticed I tend to attract animals and vice versa. Over the years I turned my passion into a hobby and began caring for friends/family's pets, as well as having my own. I believe pets are more than just companions -they're cherished members of the family. My empathetic nature helps me understand pet parents' concerns, making me the perfect companion for your pets. Whether it's a cat, dog, or exotic pet, I treat them as my own. I will make sure your fur babies have a Pawsome time!!!

Ratings and reviews
Karen was absolutely wonderful with my dogs. She not only cared for them with so much love, but also paid attention to little details I hadn’t even mentioned. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in her hands. Truly grateful for her care!


Extremely thorough and communicative. Thank you for being available and watching Frank! Would definitely recommend and book again. Keep up the great work
Karen was always timely and made sure my dog got his walk and even came early when she saw it was going to rain (after checking with me) because she knew how my dog would refuse to walk in the rain.

Thanks for the last minute support!!

Very responsive, flexible, and caring walker! My dog is a senior pub, and she was always very careful and thoughtful of the weather is impact on her. She was always prompt and communicative, will definitely be reaching out to her again.
This is our first time using Rover and we felt so lucky that we found Karen. Karen takes care of our pets not only with full of experience and patience, but also with love and sentiment. She’s always so considerate, thoughtful and responsive and she gets along with both of our pets so well just after a couple of visits. We trust her 100% with our pets and will definitely rebook with her next time we are out of town. I highly recommend Karen.
