I do not offer care in my home as my own cats are uncomfortable with other animals. I am able to provide care in your home based on your needs and preferences.

Information Karen T. would like to know about your pet

I am currently recovering from a broken leg. I am mobile, but can’t do daily walks right now. I will update this as I continue to recover.

A typical day

I am happy to snuggle on the couch, play fetch or tug of war and go outside to smell the roses. With kitties I’m happy to play chase the light or string and give lots of pets. 6/26- currently recovering from a broken leg. I am mobile but unable to do dog walks or navigate larger flights of stairs. Will update this as I continue to progress through recovery.

Karen and Jason treated our babies like they were their own. They made quick friends with even our shyest cat and really made us feel SO MUCH BETTER about being away. I cannot recommend Karen enough!!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
