I’m a huge animal lover!!

Pet care experience

I’m an outdoors person! I love to go hiking and walking, so your pups will be in great hands with me and get lots of exercise, if that’s what you desire for them! I love to snuggle and smooch with all the babies.. I can just sit on the sofa and hang with them if they’re older and they can’t get out and walk far.. I’ll just love on them while you’re gone... I have two cats at the moment. I’ve had dogs all my life, from puppies to senior dogs, I have administered medication, massages Heart warm pills flea medication and if it need be, other types of medical attention.. I’m willing to take detailed instruction from the owners on how to administer medication to them... I have two cats at the moment and my beautiful lab mix passed almost two years ago .. so I would love to be able to take care of yours to fill that void until I get one of my own again!? All my friends are animal lovers and I have great references!

Karen has been so great! It’s obvious she has a natural affinity for taking care of animals. She is invested, caring, communicative, and confident. It’s clear that she loves what she does which only makes her better at it. I will without a doubt be calling Karen again. Look no further, Karen is here.

I have known Karen since we were in middle school. She is the biggest animal lover I know. She has watched my dogs over the years when we go out of town, she has walked them when we had to work late. The dogs love her so much they don't want to say good bye. She is always the first person I call to watch my dog.

I’ve known Karen for 15 years and I could not recommend a better person to look after your loving pet. She is a true lover of all animals and a highly responsible pet owner herself. My husband and I own 3 dogs, which are very much our “children” and Karen has looked after them on numerous occasions while we travel. There was never any doubt in my mind that they wouldn’t be properly cared for. Her fun-loving, caring nature is definitely worth your consideration whether it be for an extended period of time or just an afternoon visit. You won’t find a better, trustworthy sitter!

Information Karen S. would like to know about your pet

I need to know what kind of energy your dog has, if they’re puppies, if they’ve been trained..!? Would prefer not a lot of pulling, especially in larger dogs.

I would love to take your dog(s) on long walks and if they are able to be off leash, hiking and dog parks as well!
