Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog Whisperer. Beagle approved.
Walk time, play time, and snuggle time are all big parts of owning and loving a dog, and happen to be 3 of my favorite things. My 8 year old coonhound mix Wilbur loves to play tug and chase with his BFFs, Chase and Stitch, and would love to meet your pet if you'd like! Not every dog wants play, some need one on one time. I'm here because I love dogs and am in tune with their needs. I pay attention to what they are trying to tell me. I've grown up with dogs my entire life, from mutts to Cairn Terriers to Beagles to Pibulls to St. Bernards, and have yet to find a dog that doesn't like me. Even when their owner said they wouldn't. Even better than that, dogs listen to me inherently and when I come upon a stubborn pup, I know that patience and positive rewards trump everything! Wilbur's BFF Beau was a rescue from animal torturous testing and had many special needs. He was also a flight risk. I dog sat Beau and Lily for 7 years and have learned to never underestimate a Beagle's brain, they will not hesitate to outsmart you. Wilbur grew up with his now deceased BFFs Lily (super mutt) and Beau (Beagle) since he was 3.5 months old, so I have experience with puppies as well as senior pups who need attentive care. Beau and Lily required meds and special diet as they aged and lived their full lives. Thank you and I look forward to adding your pup to my 4-legged friend list!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in yard and gated wrap around porch, as well as 2 beagles (ages 5 and 7), and a medium sized Wilbur (age 8). At your home harnesses and leashes will always be on before any doors are opened. I can crate your dog as well, if you prefer that.
Ratings and reviews
Another great stay for Pippin at Karen’s!
Just top notch care. Karen loves and treats my dogs as if they were her own. Lots of pics sent too.
Karen took very good care of our dog and our house. She is very responsible, send us lots of update photos and communicated with us in a timely manner.
Once again, Pippin was completely at ease at Karen’s house and was cared for wonderfully!
Karen takes wonderful care of Pippin! Pippin is very comfy at Karen’s house.
Karen was amazing! Every picture she sent you could see the dogs just happy as can be. She stayed at our house and the pictures that she took with them snuggling with her in bed were just priceless. I will definitely recommend Karen to any and all of my friends!
