About Karen

Hi, I'm Karen!

Pets are like family. There is no doubt about it! Since moving to Australia from New Zealand I've missed having the company of dogs. They give us our undivided love, attention and loyalty and there is something very uplifting about that. It would make me so happy to walk or sit with your dog.

I live in Manly and one thing that is missing on my twice-daily walks is a canine companion. I live 5 minutes from Manly beach - a great walking spot too!

I work full time from home with flexible hours. I offer dog walking services and I am available to do this morning, lunch and evenings most days of the week. Weekends also work for me too. Your dog will be cared for as if it's my own!

I've recently joined this app because of the flying recommendations I've had from friends who use it for their dogs. I am excited to meet your dog! and I look forward to helping out!

I also offer the service of home visits. I can do these visit once and twice daily spending up to an hour keeping the dog company. Of course, let me know if you want me to stay longer as each dog is different.  

Other things I offer on my home visit and dog walking services is;

- Photo update per day 

- Keeping in contact with regards to any changes with the pet and if required bringing the pets to the vet when agreed with the owner 

- Feeding the pet as required

- Access to fresh water

- Basic medication (non-injectables)

- House apartment securely locked up 

- Giving the dog access shade when warm 

I thought it was worth mentioning that I do not own a car but I am more than happy to walk to pick up and drop off your dog.

Thank you and please don't hesitate to call or email if you have any questions.

With puppy love - Karen xxx

Karen was great when she looked after Roo. She was proactive ahead of our bookings and scheduled a facetime to make sure everything was in order. She provided photos of walks and Roo was a happy camper. Thanks!

Karen rearranged the agreed time to make sure she could see my cat who was hiding. She even won over my grumpy cat.
