Information Karena L. would like to know about your pet

No breed restrictions. How does your dog get along with other people, animals, and in new environments? Any special needs? Any aggressive tendencies? Any medical needs, taking medicine, allergies, foods to avoid?

A typical day

We'll take our walks around my neighborhood in a suburban area. Sleeping arrangement: Either bedroom or living room Weather permitting, on weekends I like to go hiking, head to the beach, or find a nice trail. Plenty of treats, play time, and cuddle time on the couch.

Pets

Reliable & kind dog loving home

Pet care experience

My husband and I loved spoiling our furbaby, Lola, for almost 14 years. I have loved and taken care of dogs my whole life. Every pet has different needs and routines, and I'm glad to cater to your pet and treat him/her like my own. I have experience giving medications. Lola was on quite the medicinal cocktail and thrived until the end. Losing Lola has left a space in our hearts and home that can never truly be filled. We welcomed another forever furbaby: Hazel, a bernedoodle mix puppy, who continues to melt our hearts and fill our lives with joy. I’d love to care for your furbaby/furbabies as one of our own, enjoying walks, playing, and sharing our home! 💙 Hazel will be excited for the extra company too 🐾

Karena was so amazing with my Professor Love Bug!! She was extremely attentive and mindful of his aging needs. I got lots of photos and updates which made my heart smile and further put me at ease. She was phenomenal and I will definitely be booking with her whenever she's available in the future! Thanks again!
