Pet care experience

2 dogs max = happy dogs 🐶🐾🐕

I do boarding, drop-ins (dogs and cats), and walking. For boarding we are limiting 2 dogs (plus our one golden retriever) at a time so they can be treated like family and not get so overwhelmed. No aggressive dogs for boarding please. They will hang out with us during the day and sleep with us at night. We go outside every 1-2 hrs during the day. You’ll get updates with pics two times a day but you are always welcome to text me if you want any additional check ins. I truly love being a pet sitter. It brings me so much joy. I have experience with puppies to senior and special needs dogs as well as taking care of cats. I’m responsible and dependable. And I loooooove animals. I’m one of those that can’t watch videos where animals get hurt or it upsets me the whole day.

Drop-In Visits • Oct 06, 2026

Karen was so amazing! I had a last minute request, and I’m so thankful I found her. She sent plenty of photos and walked and fed my girl well. When we had to exchange keys again after I was back home, Wiggy was so excited she went and grabbed a tennis ball to play with her again! I definitely recommend Karen and plan to book her again! 😊

My dogs had the best vacation at Karen’s. She sent lots of pictures and videos everyday, and I could see in my pups faces that they were having a great time. Will definitely book again. Thank you!

Karen was great while taking care of my dog. She provided plenty updates and photos while I was out of town, giving me assurance the dog was well cared for.

Dog Walking • Sep 24, 2026

Karen is a wonderfully reliable dog walker. Our dog absolutely loves her and gets excited every time she arrives. She consistently goes above and beyond, treating our pup like one of her own. We'd recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their dog.

Schedule

If I’m showing up in your search then either my husband or myself will be home and off work to care for little ones. Only I do the drop ins/walks but my husband does help with boarding. Your pet will be our priority. Most days we board one of us is home the entire day, but at most we would only leave for about an hour. And again, that’s rare.

Pets

A typical day

Dogs can run around as much as they want in the back yard and inside. We will let them get comfy with us inside when they are tired from playing. We want your dog(s) to have a blast and feel like they are with extended family.

Unspayed females accepted, neutered males only
No females in heat

Let me know if your dog needs to take any meds or has any special instructions. We can feed your dog whenever and however you would like. We know some dogs are picky, haha.
