Highlights
Pet care experience
Fun and enthusiastic animal lover
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.

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.
Ratings and reviews
Karenna was great. Our dog was very happy on his walk and she helped us out big time. Definitely recommend booking with her!
Karenna did a great job caring for my old girl! Would recommend her highly
Karenna was wonderful with Camo, our 11 year old cat! She is reliable, attentive and I highly recommend her!
Karenna went above and beyond expectations- she agreed to meet and get to know my reactive dog who needs the time to get to know someone before being left alone. We schedule multiple drop ins prior to her house sitting and the weekend went very smoothly. Took great care of both our dogs and our home. Highly recommended!
Highly recommend Karenna, who took excellent care of our 2 large dogs and our elderly cat, including administering medication. Karenna consistently sent text and photo updates, which reassured us that all was well. Would definitely book again.
I would highly recommend Karenna! She immediately made my senior cat feel comfortable and loved. She was communicating with me throughout my trip and showed how much she cared.
