Safety, trust & environment

I live in a pretty quiet neighborhood and have a nice sized yard. I also have a finished basement for play space inside, my cat has her own bedroom if that speaks for itself. I try to provide the best care possible for any animal, I feed my cat an all wet diet, she had a water fountain and whisker fatigue free bowl, she also uses health monitoring litter and has her own room for her toys.

Eternally grateful Karena was able to watch Jonesy on such short notice. Easy to contact and kept me in the loop every day with photos and all. Would book again!

I didn’t want my dog staying at a boarding kennel when I had to travel for work. I reached out to Karena on short notice and she replied quick! Pepper gets nervous away from me but Karena was amazing at updating me and letting me know how pepper was doing! Karena is a great pet sitter and I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future if I need someone to watch my doggy.
