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.

Information Karen W. would like to know about your pet

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.

A typical day

I don’t really have a typical day. I can be taking care of a senior dog one day, the next few days might be cats and dogs, the day after that could be chickens and rabbits! Who ever I’m taking care of, I always get the best greeting!

Pet care experience

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!

Karen is more than a responsible and loving pet caregiver, she is trustworthy, dedicated and absolutely loves animals. I truly believe that if your pets could talk they’d ask to be looked after by her. If you are in need of someone to take care of your pets, you can’t go wrong with Karen.

Karen is an amazing pet caregiver. We have entrusted her with our 2 dogs for over 3 years now. When she cares for our dogs, she consistently spends extra time and energy with them to ensure they get some exercise and love. She also sends us updates on how they are doing while under her care without any prompting from us! She goes above and beyond each visit. Her costs are also extremely reasonable. You will not have a better trusted pet caregiver. Karen is absolutely the best! 100%
