Responsible, loving, pet care
Pet care experience
I have been a pet owner for my entire life. I understand how our pets are our family and they need the love and care and attention just as our human family needs the same. We all want to know that our pets have everything they need when we are not able to be with them and provide those things. The basics, food, water, and walks for comfort and sustenance, but our dogs and cats need us for much more. I have been a profession pet sitter for 8 years, and have learned that in addition to the basics, your pets need comfort and reassurance when you are away. They want ear scratches and belly rubs, they love special treats (when authorized by their human), and special outings and play dates. They can enjoy their own staycation. I have also learned that their families want reassurance knowing their best friend is in good care. I believe in sharing photos and messages to regularly update their family when you are apart. Your pet is always my priority when in my care, whether an afternoon walk or a week long stay. You can count on me to see that your pet gets all the fun, love and attention that they need when you are away.

Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our dogs!! Loved the communication and pictures. We will see you again!
Karen is the most loving, care-conscious dog sitter--period. My dog, who dosen't care for anything except Frisbees, gets so excited when we drive up to Karen's house for a play date that he's up on all fours with his tail wagging furiously. And of course he's excited: Karen not only takes him for wonderful walks, gives him a plush place to sleep, but gives him home baked doggie treats. Karen is my dog's favorite sitter hands down.
Karen is the absolute best walker we have ever used. She is kind, patient, and clearly experienced with all types of dogs. I think our dog actually prefers her walks to ours. If you want a happy pup, definitely use Karen!
Karen is the best dog sitter in the world! She is so loving and caring with my senior citizen dog that he doesn't even miss me when I'm gone. She is attentive to his needs and always makes sure to send me pics of him while they are on a walk, playing with his four legged friends, or taking a snooze. She always takes him on the walks I ask for and ensures he gets out potty before he has accidents (he's old and needs to go out every few hours). She also makes sure he gets his meds at the right time of day. We are so grateful to have Karen as a dog sitter, it's much easier to leave our dog for a few days knowing he is in good hands.

I would want to know how dogs behave around other dogs while on leash. I would like to know how the pets recall response is, do they try to go after cars. No breed preference
