Dogs are my life

I am a CPDT I’m trained in understanding dog body language and know what your dogs need I monitor your dogs all day. I train puppies and will accommodate to your training requests. I also teach agility classes and tricks classes. I have a really nice dog of my own that loves to do agility as well. You can talk to me about what tricks and agility you would like your dogs to know, if this is something that you would like. Your dogs will have a nice playmate as well but I also understand if they need to play by themselves. I am also able to administer meds if needed. Your pups are in great hands and will not be bored at all.

I cannot recommend Karwen highly enough as a professional petsitter. Having witnessed her incredible animal care skills firsthand, I can confidently say she possesses one of the most impressive combinations of knowledge and compassion I've ever seen in a caregiver. What truly sets Karwen apart is her extensive background in animal behavior and training. Her experience training service dogs gives her a unique understanding of animal psychology that translates directly to exceptional pet care. She doesn't just meet basic needs—she genuinely understands their behaviors, stress signals, and how to keep them comfortable and happy in any situation. Karwen's versatility is remarkable. Whether it's cats, dogs, horses, chickens, or goats, she treats each animal species with the same level of expertise and respect. Her certifications in animal care and behavior demonstrate her commitment to professional standards, but it's her genuine love for animals that truly shines through in everything she does. She's proactive, detail-oriented, and always puts the animals' well-being first. When you need someone to care for your pets, you want someone who will treat them like their own family and provide the highest level of attention and expertise. If you're looking for someone who combines professional certifications with a natural gift for understanding animals, look no further than Karwen—she's absolutely exceptional at what she does.

I first met Karwen and her amazing dog, Ready, several months ago. I've seen what an impressive dog trainer she is from her videos online. I wouldn't hesitate to leave my pets in her care, as she has an obvious love and connection with animals.

Karwen has been a pet sitter for our dogs, cats and menagerie of farm animals. Our critters all love Karwen! I appreciate her reliability and attentive care. She is thorough and responsible and I don't worry about our animals when they're in her care.
