I'm 31 years old born in Canada and grew up in New York City. Ever since I was a little girl I've always loved pets and had the pleasure of growing up with them. I've had various types of pets growing up; cats, dogs, a hamster, fish, parrots, iguanas, a chicken, and a horse. Both chicken and horse I had when I was living in Colombia, where the weather was warm enough to take care of them.
While living in Colombia I also worked as a Veterinary Assistant for a year. Where I assisted veterinarians in examining animals to determine the nature of illnesses or injuries along with maintaining kennels clean. I loved every second of working there and really appreciated every opportunity I had. I currently am an Interior Decorator and studying for my Interior Design Degree.
The reason why I am a pet sitter is that I love helping others and am aware there are parents that are busy or have trips to attend. That's where I would like to jump in and lend a helping hand. When it comes to pets they need our attention and I love to share my time with them.
Currently living in Surrey Hills and the nearest park is Canterbury Sports Ground and Boroondara Park which also leads to Anniversary Trail. Both areas are ideal for dog walking.

Was very confident leaving my cavoodle with Karen. Thank you for taking such good care of her!
This was the first time we used Pawshake and Karen was fantastic. She reassured us as we were a little nervous leaving our girl Beryl. She gave us regular updates and we could tell when we got home that Beryl had been very well looked after. Would highly recommend Karen to anyone and so would Beryl. We hope she can look after Beryl again soon for us.
As I stated before I've worked as a Veterinary Asistant for a year where I monitored animals in recovering from surgery and notify veterinarians of any unusual changes or symptoms. Hold animals during veterinary procedures, maintain and cleaned kennels, and assisted veterinarians in examining animals to determine the nature of illnesses or injuries.
