Safety, trust & environment

I am unable to watch clients' pets at my own home, however I am more than willing to go to clients' places to watch their fur babies. Before I leave a client's residence, I ensure that it looks the same if not cleaner than before I got there.

Information Karenna A. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any special needs/behaviors/health issues that your dogs or cats have in advance. Anything you can think of - door scratching, reactivity, aggression, etc. I am very understanding and flexible and will accommodate your furbaby to the best of my ability! LGBTQ+ friendly :) Same day bookings are subject to an additional $20 last minute fee (new clients only). **I WILL NOT watch dogs that are not neutered, leash pullers or jumpers heavier than 50 lbs., and/or not potty trained.**

A typical day

I love walking dogs around their neighborhood or playing with them in their house or yard! I also love giving kitties chin scritches or just hanging out with them in the same room if they're shy.

Pet care experience

My favorite part about this job is getting to know your pets and treating them like my own! Each pet has their own unique personality and I love learning about their quirks and habits. I truly love animals and am so glad my schedule allows me to petsit! I had my first cat Smokie for 14 years and helped to take care of her since I was about 8. She lived with me at my college apartment for 2 years, so I was taking care of her pretty much independently. My family adopted Mango in September 2024, who we got a few months after Smokie crossed the rainbow bridge. I am comfortable administering medicine (orally) to both cats and dogs, as my cat had to take blood pressure medicine and my dog has been on medication before. Additionally, I have had my derpy husky Blu for the last 9 years and have taken great care of him. I have had several repeat weekly drop-in and housesitting clients in the past and actively have multiple clients who I housesit for regularly.

Karenna always takes the best care of our “boys”—one dog and two cats. She is great at sending us photos of them while we’re away and they always look so relaxed and happy to have her there w them. We highly recommend Karenna for great care of your pets!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
