Pet care experience

Full time Pet Concierge

Hi my name is Karen. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I have been around dogs my entire life. (We got our first family dog when I was four years old.) I worked as a professional dog groomer when my husband was active duty Air Force. I have been dog sitting and dog walking, professionally/full time, since 2017, and before turning it into a business, I watched dogs for friends and family regularly. I have rescued five dogs and found them their forever homes. While I love animals, my passion is for dogs. I love all breeds and all sizes. I have knowledge on giving dog medications orally and topically.

My dogs love staying with Karen! Lots of playtime with other dogs and enjoying doggie door to the large fenced-in yard!

Best dog sitter on rover that we’ve found so far. I don’t think our dogs wanted to come home! Thanks Karen.

Karen is an amazing dog sitter. I’ve used her well over a year now with my yellow lab Luke. The care she provides gives me a ton of peace when I’m away from him. She treats my dog as if it’s her own. When I say her name around him he gets super excited because he loves his time in her care. She is professional, has an amazing fenced yard/dog door/ and a large dog area in her home. I’ve used other dog sitters and she is far and away the best!

Karen was great! We received pics of our pups daily and was very responsive. My pups had a great time in her crate!

Let me know what times you typically feed your pups. I try to keep a similar schedule while they stay with me. Does your dog have any incontinence issues? Specific times for medications? Do they have any fears I need to be aware of? I typically take them with me if I leave the house. So they may go to visit friends or out to the park.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
