What Our Pet Parents Say
Melissa H.
"Karen has lovingly cared for our energetic Old English Sheepdog during extended stays, and we couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter. She is reliable, communicative, trustworthy, and genuinely caring in everything she does."
Kim B.
"Karen is by far the most incredible pet sitter I have ever worked with. Sometimes I think our animals love her more than us. There is a mourning period after she leaves. I would recommend Karen without reservation"
Shawn S.
"Karen has taken exceptional care of our animals over the past 10 years. We have hired her over and over again to stay with our beloved dogs, cat, and huge desert tortoise.
Our animals get so excited when they see Karen and we can go out of town without having to worry about a thing."

Rest Easy
$75
For Independent Pets
Many pets are perfectly content spending part of the day on their own, as long as they have a loving companion with them at the end of each day. Rest Easy is designed to provide the comfort and security of overnight companionship while allowing your pet to maintain the routine they're accustomed to.
Your sitter will spend the evening and overnight in your home, providing dinner, potty breaks, playtime, affection, bedtime companionship, and morning care before leaving in the next day, approximately 12 hours later.
Rest Easy is ideal for pets who already have appropriate daytime care in place, such as access to a secure dog door, a trusted friend or family member providing a midday potty break, or another scheduled caregiver. It is not intended to be a dog's only care for a 24-hour period.
Best for: Independent pets whose normal routine includes spending much of the day on their own.
Daily Rhythm
$125
For The Working Household
Just because you're away doesn't mean your pet's routine has to change. Daily Rhythm is designed for pets whose families typically spend the workday away from home, providing a schedule that closely mirrors the rhythm they're already accustomed to.
Your sitter will be there to start the day with morning care before they "leave for work,". They will return in the evening for dinner, playtime, companionship, and an overnight stay to provide comfort and security through the night.
By following a familiar routine, your pet can enjoy the consistency they rely on, even while you're away.
Best for: Pets whose normal routine includes spending the workday alone while their family is away, but who enjoy more companionship during mornings, evenings, and overnight.
Constant Companion
$175
For Pets Who Thrive on Togetherness
Some pets don't just enjoy company, they depend on it. Whether they're a puppy, a senior, adjusting to a new environment, managing separation anxiety, or simply your loyal shadow, Constant Companion provides the steady presence they need to feel safe, comfortable, and at ease.
Your sitter will remain in your home for the majority of the day, leaving only briefly- typically for no more than two to four hours- to run necessary errands.
Meals, playtime, enrichment, medications, cuddle time, and quiet companionship are naturally woven into your pet's day, allowing them to enjoy the comfort of their usual routine with as little disruption as possible.
Best for: Pets who are accustomed to having someone home for most of the day or who simply do best with steady companionship and minimal time alone.
