About Karen

I love animals of all kinds. I have a particular soft spot for pit bulls but welcome new friends of any size, color or breed. I am happy to play or walk if the dog is young and/or energetic, or just go out to potty and then sit quietly for companionship. I am also very cat friendly, respecting the boundaries set by the cat, while ensuring its safety, access to fresh food and water. I generally will stay in the home with a cat or cats for at least an hour, reading or engaging in other quiet activity to provide company and allow them to get used to me and approach if they want to. Playing, petting, loving them as their individual personalities allow. I am happy to care for friends of any species, and have fed and cared for horses locally, as well as caring for animals with medical needs, including giving injections when necessary. I would be happy to discuss your needs and whether I am good fit to meet your needs and your pets'. Lots of references available!
