Pet care experience

Dog mom, turned pet-sitter 🐾

I've had dogs since I was a kid, and it's always a joy to spend time with fur babies. For five years, I had a corgi named Ruthie, who was the light of my life. She went everywhere with me and I did everything for her. Sadly, she passed away last year from cancer. But I did all I could do to give her the best life possible. I know what dogs need to feel engaged, safe, and loved. I will make my place a home for your dog when they're with me.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard. My dad, who I live with, has four dogs, but they stay upstairs -- I live in a downstairs apartment with access to a private yard. While his dogs are friendly, they'll stay upstairs while your dog is staying with me. (And, yes, I've watched all four of his fur babies while he's gone on vacation 🙂) I give meals and medicine as needed. When I take dogs for walk, I let them sniff anything and everything to their heart's content. I have lots of dog toys they can play with. I can even teach them a few tricks! I can't wait to meet your pup 🙂

I can’t recommend Karmen highly enough. She has watched my four dogs several times now, and every stay has been excellent; no small feat with a full pack! She has a wonderful setup for dogs, including a beautiful, fully fenced in yard where they had plenty of room to run and play, plus a safe, lovely neighborhood that’s perfect for walks. Her communication is always excellent, with regular updates and photos that give me complete peace of mind while I’m away. It’s obvious my dogs are happy, comfortable, and genuinely well cared for every single time. She consistently goes above and beyond, and I book her again and again without hesitation. If you’re looking for someone reliable, attentive, and great with dogs with a safe, spacious place for them to stay, she’s the one!

We can't say enough good things about Karmen! She is attentive, reliable, and adhered to our feeding and walking schedules. Beyond basic care, she actively worked on teaching skills with our dog and handled routines. Our pup bonded right away with both Karmen and her dog—hanging out on the couch and tagging along in the kitchen at mealtime. Karmen is a natural leader with dogs and manages them effortlessly. Recommend her to anyone looking for top-tier care!
