Dogs are family!

Pet care experience

I know how important it is that my dog is treated like a loved family member, I will treat yours that way as well. I have experience in puppies all the way through senior care. I have fostered dogs, and rescued three (German Shepard - Marley who passed at 14yrs, a Mutt- Frances who passed at 13 and currently mom to Lab Mix- Goose 11 yrs) and a doggie Aunt to Border Collie, French Bulldog and Llaso. I come from a dog loving family. Currently I share my home with Goose (lab) and an adult Daughter who is also a pet sitter/and preschool teacher.

Karen was great. When I had issues with the system putting in incorrect info, she patiently worked from her end to get the reservation correct. She has a great backyard for our active young goldens. We appreciated the frequent updates, photos, and videos. Her care for and enjoyment of dogs is evident. I highly recommend Karen.
