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 was very attentive to our gentle giant, James absolutely loved having her and now thinks she’s part of the family. We will definitely use her in the future.

Karen was fantastic. She was very communicative, friendly, and sent me photos daily and a brief rundown of my pups walks. I will absolutely book her again for my next travel!

Karen has been walking our pup regularly for about 5 months now. She is great with him and her love of animals is clear. She's flexible and reliable. I would recommend to anyone who needs pet care services.

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.
