Loving pet sitter-ONE PET AT A TIME

Pet care experience

I only watch one pet at a time in order to properly provide good quality daily attention…..😊 if your pet likes to walk, I will walk 4-5 per day, play with them and see that they get some fresh air and sunshine …your pet will get personal one on one attention and full time care! If walks are not their thing , that is fine too…whatever is most comfortable for your pet! My house is spacious , organized and neat so it is a safe,healthy and comfortable environment for your pet to be in while they are away from their home.😊

Karen is an absolute lifesaver…3 days before my destination wedding I had nobody to watch Candy. She drove in a rain storm to meet us and chat before booking and she made me feel so comfortable right away. I was actually able to relax at my wedding knowing she was in good hands and it felt like I had just left her with a family member instead of a stranger for the weekend. Highly recommend and will absolutely rebook her!

Karen did a wonderful job watching over my Chee, which allowed me to enjoy my trip. Karen is very personable and displayed a great personality, a good person. Thank you Karen from both Chee and myself!!!

Karen was wonderful. She took care of my babies like they were her own. She sent me pics and messages letting me know how they were doing. I would recommend her to my family and friends without a moments hesitation.
