Crazy Cat Lady Who Loves Dogs Too

Pet care experience

Chillaxing with animals is my favorite self-care! I have been taking care of cats and dogs for over 20 years. My speciality is rescue animals and all of my cats over the years have been from shelters. I've taken care of all types of cats and dogs from pugs to German Shepards, from kittens to senior cats. I am very gentle, compassionate, and give great pet back scratches!

Karen was reliable, accommodating and great with communication while she watched my 2 dogs for a long weekend. I would definitely recommend Karen and would use her again!

Karen provided excellent care for our two dogs during a recent getaway. She put in extra effort to get to know my one dog who is not great with strangers and was able to care for him with no difficulties. She left the house in great condition and we felt confident that our pups were well cared for while we were away. Karen also provided pictures and updates to help reassure us while we were away. Thanks Karen for taking such great care of our pups!

Karen did a so so job neighbors said the dogs were left in the yard alone. Dexter only uses the basement to poop and pee if left alone to long and when I returned from my trip there was a poop and pee in the basement she also was more expensive than most sitters so I expected excellent care of my dogs. Did not get !
