Loving care to fit your pet’s needs
Pet care experience
I’ve had a huge variety of pets since age 6, and truly love meeting and caring for others’ pets, as though they were my own! I have a 17-year old rescued Chihuahua, who is fully spoiled, and is lucky enough to eat homemade food, which speaks to my background of being a Registered Dietitian over the past 36 1/2 years! He became intolerant of purchased foods, so I made the switch. I have cared for the dogs of family and friends, once sitting for 5 dogs for ONE client over a weekend. I also have experience pet-sitting part-time for a previous petcare company in Champaign. I learned a lot from them:)
Reviews
Great care provided, met dog in his comfort zone.
Five stars! Karen was amazing. I really appreciated her thoughtful updates and photos of my cat ❤️ I would 100% book her for drop-in visits again.
Karen did truly a fantastic job taking care of our sweet kitty when we were away. She stopped by twice a day as requested, was thoroughly attentive, and send lots of pictures and updates. She made us feel very comfortable that we were leaving Avi in good hands - We would use her again whenever the need arises. Thanks Karen!!!
Karen was amazing doing above and beyond our expectations. Our cat Smokey loved her. We will definitely count on her again. Thank you, Karen.
