Highlights
Pet care experience
Excellent care provider-loves walks
I love Houston and am blessed to call it home. Growing up with everything from Labrador Retrievers and Weimaraners (the Sesame Street dog) to our family "lap dog" I understand and appreciate both smart, high energy dogs who love family's and are highly active and the cute little puppy who just wants to warm your lap while being petted. I love to get my steps in and find myself walking multiple times a day either down the street or at Memorial Park -- located right across the street. I've found the best way to help a dog enjoy their stay is to take them for a walk outside and let them get their sniffs in while having exercise. I find dogs who have regular exercise are less destructive when at home, sleep better, and are more attentive to obedience training.

Safety, trust & environment
I am not currently set up for boarding but when I house sit, I treat each home with respect and make sure your pet has the time and attention they need based on their needs and schedule
Ratings and reviews
Karen watched our dog at our house while we were out of town for several days. She was attentive to our dog and the house was in good condition when we returned.

Great communication and service. Thanks!!
Karen was wonderful. I will be using her again.

Great experience. Great communication. Karen was able to help out with short notice which was greatly appreciated.
This was my first time using Rover, and Karen did a great job!

Karen has been wonderful with our 8 month old Great Dane/lab! He has so much fun and she certainly handles his puppy energy well:)
