Vet Hospital Exp & Home Full Time!

Pet care experience

Hello! I am Karen and I live near Green River Golf Course. I share my home with my husband and 2 dogs Hattie a Queensland Healer mix & Mo a Collie mix. They both love to have doggy friends come and visit! I have loved all animals my entire life! I do have experience working in animal hospitals so if your dog has any special needs I have it covered. We have a cozy fully fenced yard with plenty of shade where dogs can relax. There several walking areas and parks nearby so you dog will get plenty of exercise. One of Hattie and Mo's favorite spots to walk is the Santa Anna River (right behind our community) this is a perfect place for running, swimming and playing! If the river area is not for your pooch, no problem, our dog friendly community has many places to walk around and stretch our legs. You can be sure your 4 legged children will be loved like part of our family taken when you are away! I work from home so I am here full time! I have undergone advanced screening that culminated in a face-to-face in-home meeting with a home inspection. My fees for each overnight stay of up to 24 hours: $24 for a small dog up to 44 lbs. $28 for a dog 45-94 lbs. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my whole life! Lady Jane, a Collie/Shepherd mix was my was my first 4 legged child and the one that was a constant companion growing up. She taught me how to love and be a good person; therefore, although all my dogs were special, in their own unique way, she was the first to steal my heart. Meet my pets I have 2 dogs. One neutered male and one spayed female, both 10 years old. About my yard I have a fully fenced cozy yard! Mo & Hattie love to relax and play with our doggie guests out there! I also can separate the front and backyard with a gate. My experience administering medication Yes, I am comfortable administering oral medication when given specific instructions. If your dog requires injections I do charge $5 for each one.

Kayla really enjoyed her stay with Karen. We love it when Kayla gets comfortable with whoever she is staying with and we can tell that Kayla was really comfortable with Karen and her Husband Mark by the time we picked her up. We will definitely use them again in the future!

Great dog sitter. I left my puppy with her for a few days and my puppy loved it! She has a few bigger dogs herself, but they were great enough to play with a 7 lb puppy.

Karen and her husband are amazing. They offered a warm and welcome home to both my dogs and took care of them as if they were their own. They put up with a long list of meds (and a fussy medication taker on top of that), sent me updates on the pups and had scheduled morning walks. As a former vet technician, I felt confident leaving my dogs in Karen's hands. Unfortunately we had to modify/shorten our stay due to a family emergency, but Karen was more than understanding and accommodating. I'm so glad to have found such warm and caring folks to take care of our dogs. Thank you and we can't wait to see you again!
