Pet care experience

Experienced, patient and reliable

A little bit about me.. I’m a caring, responsible, fun loving adult with a huge passion for animals of all kinds. I have a Toy Poodle and a cat who are my life! I have experience with cats and dogs of all sizes and ages, and I take care of your pets like they are my own. I have experience with nervous dogs that need a little time to trust, and will do a meet and greet so you see how I interact with your pet. I keep in constant contact and do everything I can to reassure you that your fur baby is in the best hands, even FaceTime! I absolutely love my job and look forward to meeting you soon!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I look after pets in their own home. Not only do you know that your pet is happy in their home with their normal routine, but also that someone is checking on your house while you’re gone.

Karen is delightful and Hudson just adores her. She was very personable and followed directions for taking care of Hudson to a “T”. I will trust her explicitly to take care of Hudson the Golden Retriever.

Karen was a perfect fit for our Cockapoo, Ollie! He’s naturally a little timid and she handled him wonderfully. She has such a calming demeanor, which allowed him to quickly warm up to her. I highly recommend Karen to look after your four-legged family member!

She took the best care of our new dog! Super responsive and friendly. We absolutely love her and she’s amazing with our pup, can’t wait to use her again for all of our future trips!

Karen was a lifesaver on a recent last minute spring vacation. I even messed up one full day when booking, and she was incredibly understanding and helpful. I’m new to Rover and have a pack of four dogs (a Yorkie Poo, English Retreiver, Chesapeake Bay Retriever, and a Pitt). Karen came by, met my babies, and agreed to take care of them. She is absolutely lovely. She updated me every time she stopped by and made sure I knew the dogs were doing well. She was always on time and even picked up after them when needed (kid lost a stuffy) Thank you Karen, for keeping my babies safe and well cared for.

Schedule

I’m a full time pet sitter in the Great Bridge/Hickory area of Chesapeake. Having clients local means I can make multiple visits to each house and not have to worry about time or traffic.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Karen can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
I like to have as much information as possible with new clients. I like to know their likes and dislikes, what might make them nervous etc. I try to keep close to their normal routine and can easily adapt from a nervous pet to a fun loving energetic pet.
