Pet care experience

I’ve been a pet owner since 1985 and I’ve fostered over 70 cats and dogs over the past 20 years through an Animal Rescue Project that I continue to volunteer for. My home is designed for pets. No rugs and comfy furniture covered with pet hair. In my Florida home, I do not have a fenced in yard but I have a lovely dog friendly community to take long walks in. I specialize in seniors, special needs pets or pets on a medicine schedule. I love puppies too. Cats are also welcome in my home. Your dog or cat will be treated just like family. I’d also be happy to care for your pet in your home. I am a snow bird who spends my winters in South East Florida and Summers in my home state of New Jersey.

This was our second time using Karren -- this time we had her stay with our pup in our home for 2 nights. Karren was very caring with our dog during thunderstorms and also was very helpful with making sure our home was secure during it. We appreciate her partnership!

Karren was an incredible dog sitter for my two senior dogs who both require medication and extra care. She was reliable, attentive and left my home absolutely spotless. I highly recommend Karren for senior dog care. Thank you Karren!

We had a great visit drop-in visit with Karren. She was available within 24 hours of me reaching out to do a meet + greet and also come by later in the day to meet our dog, Walter, feed him/walk him/play with him. She left our home tidy and sent cute pics of Walter. We look forward to working with Karren again!

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.
