Insured grandma for your fur kids

Pet care experience

Fully insured now I'm able to direct all my love and attention to your pet, full time. I love walks in the park, play ball/frisbee in the enclosed dog run in my complex, or just sit and give him/her a good belly rub.

Karin and Charlie are so sweet! My dog tends to be anxious when I’m away but she is always excited when I drop her off with them, she knows she will be spoiled and well cared for! I also appreciate that Karin sends frequent photos and updates.

My fur baby always has an amazing time. She’s treated like the princess she believes she is.

Information Karin K. would like to know about your pet

1- friendliness with other dogs, big and small 2- information about their regular veterinarian (phone number and address for emergencies), get all vaccination cards 3- food habits and what time they are used to, please bring your regular food and treats so I can dispense it as you think its appropriate. 4- what are the signs that they need to go bathroom, they are tired, and what else I need to look for . 5 - what makes your dog tick? what are the responses he has to skateboard, bicycles, kids running, or any one you find important to let me know.

A typical day

Living close to Cadman Park we usually take our dogs there for a good walk, some interaction with others well behaved dogs and enjoy all the new smelling's that goes with a park well frequented by lots of dogs. If it is an young energized dog (like my boxer when he was 8 months when we adopted, in 1997) we can go even a little further to the Brooklyn Bridge park and really have fun close to the water.
