Karen is professional and very well organized. Karen has taken care of my little dog who has a spinal cord injury and who needs medications and help with elimination. She responds promptly and is a detail oriented person. Most of all she is very caring towards all my pets.

Despite my innocent looking, but murderous cat having a rap sheet a mile long, ‘Carin Karen somehow got her to be a good happy kitty while I was Ill, AND I returned to kitchen floors that were absolutely spotless, which has never happened in the history of Orange Furred Emotional Support Velociraptor Cats ever. 100% recommend to all your fur friends (even the naughty ones).

Karen was not only diligent, but took care of our pets as though they were her own. She also sent pictures along the way and treated our house with great respect!

FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Doing a zoom or phone call with new clients prior to accepting a job to make certain it's a fit for both humans - and of course, once hired, I'll do a meet-and-greet with your furbabies!
