Cat Sitting in Rockport

“This was the first time we used Karen’s services, but definitely won’t be the last. She made it possible for us to spend Christmas with our family out of town. She was great at keeping us informed with photos and notes of how our kitties were doing which allowed us to relax and not worry about things back home. We (and our kitties) thank you for your first class services and wish you a merry Christmas and a wonderful 2024!”

About: I've loved animals of all kinds since I was a small child. I started out with walking and caring for neighbors dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds. I have volunteered on rescue ranches, worked on a dressage ranch, and even owned and ran my own personal business breeding and selling reptiles. I have my own rescue dog who I am working on learning the ins and outs of dog training with. I've cared for birds, reptiles, equines, rodents, felines, canines, and more! Young, old, and somewhere in between are all familiar to me to some degree. Throughout my life my schedule has frequently revolved around large scale pet care. Whether it was caring for over 20 horses in a barn, or 40 baby geckos in my business, time management is something I excel at, and I am dedicated to ensuring all the animals under my care get the time and attention they need. I am currently open, and will build and update my availability as I find more work! I will ask you questions and take notes for everything you want me to do for your animals to ensure they are cared for the way you care for them. I pay close attention to animal behavior, and will notify you immediatly if I notice something wrong. I will also send updates/pictures/videos during the time I spend with your pets, if desired!

About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments—including pregnant mamas and newborn pups—I bring more than just love to pet sitting. I’ve assisted in safe deliveries, cared for litters, and provided round-the-clock attention to dogs with special needs. I’m committed to maintaining your pet’s routine and training, so their good habits stay strong even while you’re away. Whether it’s belly rubs, behavior reinforcement, or late-night check-ins, your pet will be cared for like they’re my own. I plan my day around the pets I care for. From morning walks to evening check-ins, their needs come first, and I always make sure to give them structure, love, and attention throughout the day. Whether pets are staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, their comfort and routine are my top priority. I adapt to their personality and needs—whether that means active play, extra snuggles, or sticking to a specific training or feeding schedule. I always aim to provide a calm, loving, and reliable environment they can feel secure in.

About: I am a Certified Veterinary Assistant with 8 years of experience in veterinary medicine and 4 years of experience providing pet sitting and in-home pet care. Caring for animals has always been my passion, and I love providing a safe, calm, and loving environment for pets while their families are away. My veterinary background allows me to confidently care for pets with special needs, including administering oral medications, injections, subcutaneous fluids, and topical, ear, or eye medications when needed. I am comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and a variety of exotic pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is always to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you have peace of mind. Pet care is my full-time focus, so my daily routine is built entirely around the pets I am caring for. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, walks, feeding schedules, and lots of attention throughout the day. My partner and I are both home frequently, which means pets are rarely left alone for long periods of time. With my background as a Certified Veterinary Assistant, I am also comfortable monitoring pets closely for any changes in behavior, administering medications if needed, and making sure each pet’s individual routine and comfort needs are met. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their family is away. I care for every pet based on their individual routine and comfort level. Whether they are staying in my home or I am visiting them in their home, I always aim to keep their schedule as close to normal as possible. This includes regular feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. When pets stay in my home, they are treated like part of the family and receive close supervision throughout the day. I provide a calm, safe environment and make sure pets have comfortable resting spaces and structured routines to help them feel relaxed while their owners are away. For drop-in visits and in-home care, I follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain the pet’s normal routine. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for.

I understand the need for compassionate, yet affordable pet sitting services. This is why my base rate includes services for up to 3 pets before additional pet fees are charged. i am not limited on the type of pet I will care for and the three pets can be a combination of different species. Basic Canine Pet Care includes feedings, water and outdoor playtime and companionship. Basic Feline Services include feeding, water, litter box cleaning and gentle pets (if the King or Queen so desires). I can administer oral medication for no additional fee. Injections can be discussed during an in-person visit. I own a photography studio in Aransas Pass, The Empty Kennel Portrait Studio. Pet sitting fills my schedule between sessions, providing a well-rounded work-day experience. My visits will include a check-in text when I arrive, during our visit and when I depart the home. Your pet will be fed according to their feeding schedule, and we will engage in playtime. I will also assess your pet's behavior during our visit to ensure they are adjusting well to your absence. You will be advised of any abnormal behavior or potential medical concerns immediately. A walk-thru of the home is also conducted to look for any "accidents" such as feces, urine or damaged property. I also check your thermostat to ensure the home's central air unit is operating properly. I do offer pet walking and plant watering services, as an add-on to my basic pet sitting services. Upon departure, all entry doors are secured and double-checked to ensure they are locked.
