Highlights
Pet care experience
Trusted Animal Lover, Fenced Yard
I'm an animal lover who's cared for dogs from puppyhood to their senior years. I currently have a lab/pointer mix and a cattle dog at home, and I often look after friends’ and family members’ dogs and cats. I've also had cats of my own and enjoy spending time with all kinds of pets. I work from home most days and have a large fenced yard with a doggy door, so there's plenty of space and flexibility for pets to play or relax. I enjoy walking, hiking, and running, and I'm comfortable with high-energy, large dogs as well as those who prefer a quieter space.

Ratings and reviews
Bodhi's Daycare experience with Karen has been going on for six months now and is absolutely the best! You are truly the best at what you do! Thank you, Karen!

She’s is so awesome!

Karen was amazing!! She left very detailed notes and took some super cute pictures. Will definitely be using her again!


I am new to this area and grateful to Rover for connecting me with a dog sitter like Karen. She is caring and my dog was well taken care of while in her care. There is a large fenced in yard and Karen is home during the day and interacts with the dogs. I highly recommend Karen as a sitter or for boarding.

Thank you so much Karen for the exceptional care you have provided to Bodhi these past few months! It has been really wonderful getting to know you and your family, and to see how much attention and joy you always give to B. including the daily report card, special notes, daily walks, and of course the totally cute pictures of all the fur babies! You are truly one of a kind!

Karen was amazing. I loved seeing pictures of the animals throughout the time she was at the house. The dogs and cat (who hates everyone) loved her.

Schedule
My weekday daycare hours are generally between 7:00 am and 5:30 pm. On weekends, I'm more flexible and can adjust to accommodate different activities or pet care needs. **I generally ask for at least 48 hours notice for new requests and a meet & greet before caring for new pets.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My pet environment is set up with a large, fenced yard that’s perfect for active dogs to play and roam freely. I have two energetic dogs who love to stay active and play all day, and they enjoy meeting new friends after a proper introduction.
Pets
A typical day
Pets in my care will have full access to the backyard to run and play and I often like to go on daily walks or runs depending on energy levels and abilities.
