Here to help with furry friends

My name is Karleen, I adore animals of all shape and sizes! My motto is "slow and steady, wins the race!" I have learned through my years of taking care of them that you have to be patient with them. You have to know how to read their body language in order to best assist their needs. I am a very responsible, tidy, and punctual person, who is committed to providing the best service. I understand and know how important it is to have the assurance that your furry friend is happy and taken care of and this is why I am here to help.

Karleen was so good with our boys who have two very different personalities and one who is especially stubborn. She did a great job of keeping us updated, but not inundating us with lots of messages. She also made sure to run the laundry before she left, which meant one last thing for us to do when we got home. We definitely plan to use Karleen for all future pet sitting needs.

Karleen was amazing! She sent frequent updates with photos. It’s clear she loves what she does. She left everything in our home neat and clean. We felt comfortable knowing she was taking care of our sweet puppy and have already booked her again.

Karleen went above and beyond while caring for our home and pets. Not only did she handle all the basics flawlessly, but she also took extra time to make sure everything was truly taken care of, sending regular updates, checking in thoughtfully, and handling small details we hadn’t even thought to ask for. It was clear she genuinely cared, not just about completing the job, but about doing it well. We came home to happy pets and a house that was just as clean (if not cleaner) than we left it. That level of attention and reliability is hard to find. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Karleen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who truly goes the extra mile.

Karleen was fabulous! Our anxious Goldendoodle seemed content while we were away and when we returned home. Karleen sent us photos every day and told us how our girl was doing, so we could feel at ease and enjoy our vacation. The house was spotless when we returned home. I highly recommend Karleen!

This was my first time using Rover for house and pet sitting. Karleen is absolutely amazing. My cats are shy and she went above and beyond to connect and take of them. She even washed her bedding which I was not expecting at all. Highly recommended!!! Your home and pets are safe with her.
