13. Karen M.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I only recently, in the past year, started taking care of other people’s pups and I really enjoy it. I currently have no pets of my own and I only take one dog at a time, unless there are multiple in same family. Im a homebody currently working very part time and am very available for your pups. I know everyone on here says how much they love dogs, but i do the most! I love having a dog around to love on, as does my son. I have a house with a decent sized yard, but unfortunately it's not fenced. I will be sure to check in with you and send photos.

Our dog needs a couple of daily medications and I trust her completely to administer them correctly and on time. She is very communicative about how our dog is doing so we have zero concerns or stress while we are out of town. She is also very responsible, does a wonderful job looking after our home, bringing in mail, packages, etc. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”
