Karen has been my pet and house sitter for the past several years, and has done an outstanding job managing all aspects of both jobs! My dog Charlie is my whole heart, and I never have any qualms about leaving him in the capable hands of Karen. Each day that Karen stays with Charlie, I receive a photo of Charlie (usually an action shot of him on their daily walk!) as well as an update on how Charlie is doing. Karen keeps Charlie safe, gives him his medication, makes sure he has his food and water, takes him on walks, plays with him, and overall treats him like he's priceless (which he is!). Karen also keeps the house in pristine condition, and leaves the house in much better condition than I leave it in! Karen is extremely organized with her calendar, and can tell me immediately if she is available on requested dog/house sitting days. I trust Karen wholeheartedly with Charlie and my home. If you want to feel completely at ease when you leave your pet and/or your home for any length of time, then Karen is who you need!

Why I want to house sit
I'm so excited to combine my love of adventure & traveling with my love of taking care of animals by using the Trusted Housesitters platform. Going to beautiful parks/forests/beaches or exploring new neighborhoods is infinitely more fun…
